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.
During the summer, wellington is walkable so there is a nice & quite terrasse to sit & enjoy the nice weather & be able to talk & share with friends, inside, the decoration is interesting & gives the sensation of cozyness. Food is very tasty with the blends of flavors that they do like the nopal & sirloin steak tacos, they have a variety of drinks/cocktails & the price matches the quality & amount of food. Recommended spot.
Très belle expérience dans ce restaurant à la déco moderne & coloré ! On s'y sent de suite bien. Nous avons pris le menu dégustation & c'était incroyable ! Les produits sont de qualités, je le recommande vraiment..surtout si vous êtes un bon mangeur ! En plus de ça le personnel est vraiment accueillant & souriant ! Mention spécial à Josè pour son accueil & son professionnalisme 🙏

Je recommande ce restaurant ! Nous avons été super bien accueilli & surtout nous avons très bien mangé ! Ambiance très sympa ! Petit plus, José nous a bien conseillé ☺️ Encore merci, je reviendrai !
Very good food but the person that took my order was someone who proposed me the most expensive drinks & i was served with more tacos than what i told the waiter my bill came back to 120$ with the 15% tips i was pissed because nobody presented me any menu & i didn't knew it was prices for escorts & sugar daddies especially when im a lonely women who lives alone with a rent to pay on my own. I will never come back here.
Expérience culinaire 3/5 c'est des tacos format tapas, pour le prix c'est très moyen, mais le goût était bon. Service 3/5 service rapide gens gentils. Ambiance 3/5 le décor était très bien par contre pour débuter un shift de soir le sol était sale Pour 2 personnes 4 portions de tacos & un ceviche aux alentour de 87$ tips inclus.
Dining at Escondite on Wellington was a fantastic experience. The charming location & vibrant decor create a welcoming atmosphere. The food was delicious with a diverse menu that caters to all tastes. Special mention goes to José, our server, for his attentive & friendly service. Escondite is a gem in Verdun, combining amazing food, great service, & a charming location. Highly recommended.
Une super expérience! On a été servi par Jose & je ne peux pas plus recommander ce restaurant si vous êtes un amateur de nourriture mexicaine. L'ambiance est familiale & chaleureuse!

This restaurant offers authentic Mexican food, though the portions are small & more suited as snacks. While the focus is on drinks, the atmosphere is pleasant. It would benefit from adding some homemade chili sauces. Overall, it's not expensive.
Nous avons passé une excellente soirée à l'Escondite. Service de José excellent, les plats étaient délicieux & les drinks parfaits. C'était notre première visite & de loin la dernière !
