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.

Bon rapport qualité / prix - les produits sont frais & de qualités, les tacos délicieux & le service attentionné. Une belle adresse pour une soirée dans un décor moderne & coloré. & en prime un fond musical qui ne couvre pas les conversations (on s'entend sans devoir hurler à son voisin).
PS: le dessert au lime est vraiment vraiment bon !

Tacos were delicious & so was the quesadilla. The tacos are a little on the smaller side, though that’s the only downside. Good ambiance. It was lacking in vegetarian options as only the quesadilla, one of the taco choices & one appetizer were vegetarian on the menu
