Review Summary

Escondite generally earns praise for its vibrant, authentic atmosphere and flavorful, fresh menu, with many diners highlighting the quality of the tacos, margaritas, and brunch options. While the tasting menus are frequently recommended for groups seeking to sample a variety of dishes, many patrons point out that individual portions can be quite small and pricey. Service experiences appear inconsistent; while several guests appreciate the friendly and attentive staff, others report significant delays, lapses in communication, or challenges with billing transparency. Despite mixed feedback regarding noise levels and value, the restaurant remains a popular destination for those seeking a festive environment and creative Mexican-fusion cuisine.

The food is absolutely amazing, the ambiance is magnificent. & Pedro the bartender is just amazing. You won't be disappointed with the Dinka he makes. You go there once & it will become one of your favourite places to go eat. 💯

Mon amoureux & moi sommes allés pour la Saint-Valentin & nous avons adoré. Nous avons pris l'expérience Escondite complète & c'était vraiment délicieux. Notre serveur José était fantastique ainsi que tout le reste du personnel. L'ambiance était détendue & agréable. Je recommande à mes amis sans aucun doute.

Situé au bout de la Well, à proximité du métro Lasalle (ça vous sauve un peu de marche si vous venez du centre ville), Escondite Wellington propose une cuisine mexicaine gouteuse & de qualité. Mon coup de coeur du soir : la quesadilla sincronizada de hongo, à l'huile de truffe ♥ Goûtez aussi les tacos E'steak koreano & nopal, à la surlonge de boeuf paaaarfaitement cuite. En bref, je vous recommande!

They celebrate birthdays veeery loudly, & there were three the evening we ate there. Okay if you enjoy that type of thing, but not the best for quiet conversation.

Service impeccable, des gens fantastiques. Ma famille & moi, nous sommes allés pour fêter l'anniversaire de mon mari. Dès notre arrivée, José & le staff ont été très aimables. Ils ont fait attention aux allergies de mon mari & ma fille. J'ai adoré le moment où ils sont venus pour souhaiter une bonne fête à mon mari. Merci beaucoup José! Tu as une belle qualité humaine!!!
