Reviews portray Escondite as a lively taqueria with bright decor and a warm, festive vibe that shifts from relaxed to buzzing depending on the night. The food draws praise for bold flavors and fresh ingredients, with the tasting menu and standout tacos earning frequent compliments, while portions are often described as small and prices high for the size. Service is usually friendly and attentive, though opinions split on speed and consistency during busy periods. The atmosphere on the terrace is delightful when weather and street life cooperate, while the interior can be loud with music and crowds. Occasional notes mention fine touches for celebrations and some guests feeling charged for extras on the bill, underscoring a wish for clearer pricing. Overall, Escondite comes across as a tasty, vibrant spot with a memorable vibe, delivering strong experiences on some visits and more mixed ones on others.
J'adore aller à ce restaurant. La première fois, nous sommes allés à l'Escondite du vieux-Montréal & nous avons pris le menu dégustation. Nous avons été impressionnés par la qualité, la quantité & la variété de la nourriture. Nous avons eu un coup de coeur pour les entrées. Il faut dire que rendus aux tacos nous n'avions plus très faim. Nous sommes retournés à l'Escondite de Verdun pour prendre, cette fois-ci que des entrées. Nous en avons essayé de nouvelles & réellement tout était bon. Je recommande fortement cet endroit.

Wonderful experience at Escondite Wellington. We were greeted warmly as we entered & the staff were very friendly & profesional with us. The food was amazing & the tacos were huge! I'm really satisfied with our experience as a group of 9, we were accommodated nicely. Thank you again to the staff & 5/5 would recommend.
Es comida mexicana pero no solo son tacos tradicionales son tacos con nuevos sabores, es decir tienen los clásicos aficionados con toques de nuevos sabores que para mi gusto qur soy mexicano nobestan mal tienen buen sabor y algunos si están deliciosos pero si tienen el toque muy personal del restaurant, vale la pena ir, probarlos y estar abierto a nuevos sabores
This place is usually full in the evenings with great drinks decor & ambiance & their beautiful terrace in the summer. But people dont seem to know that they are also opened for breakfast /brunch. I just can not get enough of their chilaquiles verde & my boyfriend love their enchiladas gratinadas. The prices are super affordable. My big plate of chilaquiles was 13.95$. Seriously, come & try it out. It would be so sad if they stopped doing brunch.
Parmi les meilleurs tacos que j'ai mangé! Les crevettes cuites à la perfection 💯😋 Cependant, leur recette de bloody Cesar était un peu trop amère à mon goût. Je recommande je me suis toujours régalé lorsque je suis allé!

Verdun is the best place to visit in the summer & this beautiful place is one of the upsides on Wellington street. The atmosphere is great, also the service & the food. I love that their menu is not just traditional regular Mexican food, but they add originality & uniqueness to it, like matcha cream? Or some Japanese style on another options. You can see that is a beautiful & unique place.
Jose was the best server we could have possibly asked for! Super kind & helpful & recommended the fiesta on the table (the best the restaurant had to offer) & it really was fantastic. Would highly recommend everything, but the mango salad & ribs were to die for. Leche margarita was deadly. Churros were mind blowing. I want to come back for my birthday in January with all my friends & fam! ❤️
Trop chère une bière 10$ 5 gyozas 14$ facture 50$ petites portions un midi à deux c'est trop puis pas assez saveur mexicaine on a mangé un peu sur le pouce si tu prends un ou deux plats de plus c'est 100$ abusé ca gâche l'expérience
