Escondite Drummond

MexicanMontrealvalue

Escondite Drummond is one of the best mexican restaurants in Montreal for group dinner, especially if you want a strong option in Montreal.

Escondite Drummond is correcting something Montreal's Mexican scene has long gotten wrong: it isn't leaning on Tex-Mex nostalgia, and it isn't inflating tortillas into a fine-dining exercise.
