Review Summary

Escondite comes across as a trendy, flavorful Mexican spot with a lively, eclectic vibe and a prime location in Montreal's Old Port. The tacos draw praise for flavor and variety, with crowd favorites like shrimp and Gobernador noted, but portions are often small and prices can feel high for what is served. The drinks and margaritas are frequently cited as well balanced and creative, with some standout bites like guacamole and queso fundido pairing well with the menu. Service quality is mixed; some experiences are fast, friendly, and attentive, while others are slower, less consistent, or rushed during busy times, and staff attitude can noticeably affect the mood. The atmosphere is repeatedly described as stylish and cozy, with colorful decor and a terrace that adds to the appeal for a night out or a casual bite. A few reviews caution about ceviche or certain dishes and mention dryness or inconsistent flavor, while other dishes are praised as delicious. Overall, Escondite seems worth a visit for the tacos and drinks and the overall vibe, with the caveat that portion sizes and value can vary with timing and service.View restaurant profile

Review Summary

Reviewers consistently praise Tejano BBQ Burrito for big portions, flavorful options and a friendly neighborhood vibe, with the shiitake burrito and vegetarian choices standing out; many find the burritos and bowls satisfying and a good value, and some say it’s better than major chains.
