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 delicious! I knew the brand & have tried their tacos many times but the new opening in Verdun doesn't betray their signature. The service is great & the decor is always fabulous! I recommend the Barbacoa & the E-steak tacos ! Add some tabasco for realness! Love it & will come back for more !

It was a little loud when we first arrived but we were given a booth at the back of the restaurant, which could have been a little wider, but was quiet. The service was excellent & the exchanges with the waiter, were fun. The food was authetic & was delicious, the drinks also. Gracias. We'll be back! Gy

I had the pleasure of having Escondite Verdun take care of my special event. The manager José Manuel is absolutely brilliant! He knew how much my event was important for me, & all the little details! He took the time of listening & gave me some ideas too as how & what would be best for my event . On the event day , he & the staff were just absolutely amazing! Taking care of our needs they did a 💯 service & quality as well.
The food & the drinks were amazing & the ambiance was great!

If you want to celebrate something here is the place to do it & you will love it !

Great food, very nice ambiance & the team is chill & very welcoming! Love the fact they have a unique twist on mexican food, with a hint of Asia. Love the flavors & the amazing dishes, lots of choices. My favorites are the baja tacos, pollos hermanos & nacho 2.0 dumplings! Big shout out to a wonderful host & bartender Cristian

J'ai fait des Escondite mais c'est la place que j'aime le plus! Beau décor avec de succulents tacos. On en a goûté le Mexique! Des drinks sont superbes sans parlé du service impeccable & amical. Demandez José, le meilleur :)
Pour quelqu'un qui n'est pas allé, c'est le temps! Vraiment bon & les prix sont abordables. Bientôt des Mariachi vont être là, en septembre & la fête des morts aussi! J'y retournerai !
