The food was delicious, and the atmosphere was nice. However, we had to wait much longer than expected for everything. The staff were friendly, and I would recommend making a reservation in advance.

We love the ambiance of Escondite. The food and the palomas are delicious, and it’s a good spot for when you have a group of vegans and meat eaters who want to eat together. Our server were efficient and friendly- big thank you to Yona for the fantastic service!

Great tacos and a gentleman named Eric provided us with the best service you just don’t get that often anymore. I hope they give the guy a promotion! Food was great but the service, even better.

Fun downtown resto for tasty tacos and drinks. Great location if you're looking for a bite to eat before or after an event or just want to hang out in a fun atmosphere. Very tasty taco selection (Mr. Mole and the Korean steak are amongst our faves). Great drink options too.

Great tacos and margaritas, and excellent service! Will come back to explore the rest of the menu, but from what we had and saw this is a perfect blend of Mexican and a twist of Oriental fusion....

Great food and great drinks, but truly the people are everything! Shana, Kike, Yona, Jenn, and Charlie were so kind, generous, and friendly. Great conversation, great banter. So welcoming and easy to chat with everyone there. I had a wonderful night because of them, and I had a hard time leaving. Thank you for making a regular Friday night so special

My family had such a wonderful dinner experience here. We tried a mix of four different tacos, and every one of them was absolutely delicious. We also enjoyed the mango salad, along with the chips and guacamole, which were all fresh and flavourful. To finish off the meal, we had the churros with Nutella — such a perfect dessert! Our server, Yona, was incredibly friendly, attentive, and on top of everything throughout the evening. We’ll definitely be back and would highly recommend this restaurant to others.
