I'd give this place 6⭐? if I could.
It was packed at lunch today. I sat at the bar as I was solo. I had a margarita & fish & steak tacos. Damn so good & tasty. Wish I could have had a couple more. I'll be back soon.

Amazing experience as always! The portions could be small for some but I think they are perfect & more importantly very tasty. The service was incredible from the moment we walked in, & the bartender was a true standout. After I asked for a surprise drink, they took the time to craft the perfect cocktail. You can tell they really care about what they do. Highly recommend!

Can't say enough good things about how amazing Kike is as our bartender. Food's great, menu's solid, but Kike's service is the star of the show & will have you coming back for more!

Been ordering there for years
The quality has gone down
Most items are now flavorless & bland, wings no longer taste of tamarin & are barely sauced. El chapo has no sauce, it just tastes like costco chicken, mango salad has no spice. Nachos 2.0 is gone. Not sure i'll be ordering again

To start with, the drinks were phenomenal - Darlene is a master bartender & our specialty margaritas were so well balanced & tasty - truly some of the best margaritas we've ever had. Then we decided to be adventurous & try the tasting menu as the price was unbeatable. Every single course was delicious & we were so full but the food kept on coming. Really the perfect meal! We will be back next time we are in Montreal!

Première expérience, super ambiance, personnel sympathique & de bon conseil pour le choix du menu. Les tacos sont savoureux & judicieusement relevés. La barman avait beaucoup de style pour préparer les cocktails.

Honestly, one of my favourite places to go have a drink or to eat in the Montreal area. Sometimes, I even go on my own to have a nice & relaxed meal. Also, they make me feel at home over there. Yona & Quique, who are always managing the bar (among others), make amazing cocktails, & it is super fun to have a chat with. 100% recommended! :-)

Première visite dans cet établissement sur la suggestion d'un ami. C'est en plein centre-ville & c'est aussi un bar. Le service est attentionné, efficace. Pour les entrées, on a choisit le ensalada de mangos & le Jamaica cevice, c'était délicieux, frais, bon mélange des textures. En plats principaux, tacos pollos hermanos & all pastor. Encore une fois, on a sentit la fraicheur des ingrédients & c'etait très bon. Pour finir, Key lime, la creme de citron etait bonne, la mousse de coco un peu trop généreuse à mon goût. Il va falloir y retourner pour aller tester les autres plats.

Amazing place. Innovative & welcoming & flexible. Everything we requested we got. We were blown away. The drinks were perfectly balanced (& we take our margaritas very seriously & rarely like a restaurant margarita in Canada). We had Catherine our server commend the bartender! All the food was fantastic especially the cauliflower general tao, the dumpling nachos were tasty & fun, the cauliflower tacos & the fried chicken tacos were amazing. Best of all was Catherine. Her attention to detail, positive & fun attitude, all while she was juggling many tables, ability to explain everything & keep water & drinks flowing, all without lingering & managing many other tables, was brilliant. From the moment we arrived at the restaurant to the moment we left, we felt welcomed, cared for, & appreciated. It was a fantastic experience all the way around.

We had eaten at another one of Escondite Cerveceria de Barrio restaurants on a previous visit to Montreal, & really enjoyed it. They describe themselves as "Escondite Cerveceria de Barrio are Mexican restaurants situated in Montreal, West-Island, Laval & Repentigny, that serves Mexican inspired goodies & house crafted Tequila cocktails." We'd already had lunch, so the choice of small plates was ideal. We chose some guacamole to start with, followed by some very tasty tacos. Really nice: well presented & very delicious. We ate: - Guacamole served with smoked paprika totopos - Coliflor: corn tortilla, paste, crispy cauliflower, black bean pepper crema, coriander - Cochinita Pibil: corn tortilla, pork cooked in banana leaf, marinated onions, black bean paste - Ensalada De Mangos: mango, cucumber, coriander, peanuts, shallots, pickled shallots, crispy chamoy dressing, serrano chile Also posted to my food blog on Instagram @AbbeyKing16

Start here! We went for the L' Experience Escondite at the bar & Kika took care of us with an excellent selection from the menu & a dazzling display of his bartending prowess. Food & drinks you won't soon forget. Kika directed us to the happening spots for salsa dancing & live music downtown. Know what you're looking for & kika can help you get there.
