Next stop? Mexico!
Escondite
Escondite’s slogan? “Delicious Mexican food”. That’s it, that’s all! You’ll find delicious classics like guacamole and cornbread, but also other dishes with a touch of creativity like chipotle and maple chicken wings. Tacos are a big part of the menu and you won’t die of thirst thanks to the mescal and tequila-based cocktails. Escondite, a must in downtown!
