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.

Best guacamole I've ever had (the chips were unreal)! Tacos were excellent, & the service was fantastic. It's going to be hard not to stop by after work.

Excellente bouffe, wow! Ca serait agréable que ce soit juste un peu moins cher pour pouvoir goûter à plus d'items du menu ! Mais sinon 100% pour la qualité des ingrédients, les saveurs, la fraîcheur, la présentation. Le menu est à la fois authentique & gastronomique. On se sent réellement transporté dans un clandestino ¡jajajaja!

Ma meilleure expérience resto depuis longtemps. Très forte suggestion pour Anniversaire à la fois feutré & survolté. Vous y trouverez un decor de fou avec des minis attentions partout ou vous regardez, un hôte a l'écoute de ces clients & ma fois aux petits onions & que dire du bonne fête de la part du staff..du bonbons. Une belle gang aux petits soins du debut a la fin. Nous avons eu la chance de déguster le menu de groupe en tenant compte des restrictions alimentaires de tout le monde (chapeau!) Un vrai délice, restrictions ou pas. Vous n'êtes pas prêt!! Je vous le dit c'est a tomber 😄 merci au belles initiatives comme ça d'exister. Ca fait du bien! En tout cas, Si ca ne vous redonne pas la pêche, rien ne le fera.
