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.

Very tasty food, but believe 2 tacos plate is a little too small.

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!

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!

Had a fantastic experience overall. Not only was the food hot & tasty, the service was quick & the servers were so friendly. Must recommend place if you're looking for some Tacos & Churros.

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.

The food was tasty, although it took a long time for our group to be served. It took almost 2 hours to receive all our food. They also didn't provide utensils to serve the shared food, which seemed odd. The server also did not provide enough utensils for our table. We still had a good experience as the food was tasty.

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

Absolutely delicious ,was there last night the decor is really unique ,it feels like your really in Mexico .
The food & drinks were very tasty & really original, the home runs were there smoke meat taco ,the quesidillas ,the bajo taco(black cod),& the shrimp ceviche was delishe, they have a very interesting cocktail list , i definitely suggest you have a one of those.Whats also good is that there situated walking distance from Quartier des spectacles so great place to have a bite before a show!

Will be back for sure!!
