Meet Escondido

Get ready, Santa Fe! A champion has arrived, and his name is Chef Fernando Ruiz. Escondido, his debut restaurant, promises a culinary adventure unlike any other.

Imagine a fiesta on your plate, a vibrant fusion of flavors from across Mexico. Fresh, sushi-grade seafood takes center stage, with world-class ceviches, agua chiles, crab cakes, and fish tacos singing with the essence of the Pacific Coast. Venture inland, and savor the rich traditions of Northern Mexico with succulent chicken mole, barbacoa, al pastor, and carne asada, all sourced from local ranches.

But the journey doesn’t stop there. Escondido embraces every palate, offering a wide range of vegetarian, gluten-free, keto, and vegan options that are as delicious as they are thoughtful.

And to truly elevate the experience, Escondido boasts house-made chile oils, salsas, and seasonings – all created using heirloom Chile de Arbol pods from Jalisco, Mexico. These fiery elixirs are at the ready to set your taste buds ablaze.

Thirsty for an authentic Mexican beverage? Look no further. Signature margaritas and palomas, crafted with fresh-squeezed juices and zero added sweeteners, await. Top them off with your choice of select tequilas, mezcals, or sotols, and explore a dynamic selection of bespoke bitters like Serrano, Rosemary, Clove, and Hibiscus.

Escondido isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a celebration of Mexican heritage, culinary artistry, and fresh, local ingredients. Located at El Camino Crossing on the corner of Harrison Rd. and Agua Fria, Escondido opens its doors in August 2024. Ready to experience a taste of Mexico unlike any other? Reserve your table and prepare to be transported!
