Steakhouse
With Echo & Rig Chef Sam Marvin has introduced a pioneering new concept transforming the long-held theories behind the steakhouse formula.

We put a unique nose-to-tail spin on the traditional steakhouse, allowing diners to indulge in the best cuts of meat for incredibly approachable prices.

A butcher before a steakhouse, we use every part of the animal. We care about every animal - how it lived, what it ate, and how it was cared for.

Our 7,000 square foot space is located in the Downtown Commons Neighborhood (DOCO) in the lobby of The Sawyer Hotel. Situated on the bustling J Street corridor facing the Golden 1 Center main entrance.

We have a versatile space: a private dining room with audio/visual capability, an outdoor patio, and an outdoor bar available for rent.

    The food was great and our waiter was fantastic. It was really loud for the first half of our visit because of a party waiting to be seated but was pleasant after they had moved. Loved the thoughtful touches they through in for us as we celebrated our anniversary.

    Noise level was beyond tolerant level. Service was exceptional. Wish the serving portions were comparable to the price listed. Overall the place is fun to hang around with friends. Keep up the good work but do something about the noise level. Thanks.

    Service was a littke slow, but had the right amount of attentiveness without being annoying. Food was ok, not mind boggling but not bad either. The price was surprisingly affordable compared to other pretentious "fine dining" restaurants (yep, I am looking at your Waterboy). Over-all, we might plan to go back...

    Service was great from start to finish especially our waiter. I ordered a Spencer steak medium rare. It was medium, dry and tasteless. I had really looked forward to it 🥴. I barely mentioned it to our waiter and he took it off our bill right away. That was very responsive of him. Still hungry for a good medium rare steak 🙄

    I came here for lunch for the first time. wait staff seemed sparse. Asked for a medium burger.. when it arrived medium rare and i sent it back,, they chopped up the burger refried the pieces and sent back on a new bun.. I had to wait another 5 minutes for more catsup. Not very classy for a fine dining place. my experience at dinner was a much better one... Not going to recommend anymore

    Echo and Rig is a great place to eat for a special occasion or even a normal date night. Very clean, great servers, even better food, and surprisingly not that expensive. We got a lot of food for the amount we paid. 5 out of 5 stars for me.

    Overall, it was very good. However, my first order of scallops were raw and had to be redone and the second one was excellent. My lamb chops were great. The crabcakes were good. The wine was good like I said overall it was very good good company good atmosphere for stars only because I had to get my scallops redone.

    We have eaten at Echo & Rig a few times, and the food and service have been excellent. However, the noise level in the restaurant makes table conversation almost impossible and very frustrating, especially if your table is anywhere close to the bar.

    Had reservations before attending a show at Golden one. Got seated right away by friendly hostesses. The floor manager came to tell us Eric would be our server. Also friendly. Our server, Eric was great, knew his stuff, friendly and knowledgeable. Worked hard. We ordered the rib eye ($45) and the Divers Scallops ($33). The scallops were perfect served on top of not quite creamed corn. The rib eye was sadly lacking. Ordered medium rare, that didn’t not disappoint but the size was small and there was more fat than meat. It did not melt in your mouth but was just ok. Since our food arrived very quickly (10 min) after we ordered and our drinks did not, Eric offered to buy our dessert which was so unexpected and very kind. We had two scoops of ice cream with berries and shortbread. Very delicious! We may try this place another time hopefully the steaks will be better.

    Hello! I wanted to take a moment to share about our experience and hope it could be better for others, and for us when we come back. My Fiancé and I visit this restaurant for the tomahawks and last Saturday, we decided to bring our family for the first time and have a wonderful dinner as we always have in the past at Echo & Rig. We got seated quickly and greeted by Shawn and Anthony. I would like to start by saying that Anthony and Katie performed great service and hospitality! From being seated at 540pm to getting our dishes at 731pm was the unpleasant experience. We waited for more than an hour to get all our courses including desserts since we are catching a show at Golden 1 Center that starts at 8pm. The doneness of all our steaks, one tomahawk, a rib eye cap and 2 skirts. One of the skirts was supposed to be medium and it was more rare than the medium rare skirt steak. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to enjoy our meals since we had to rush eating. One great dish was the scallops, it was superb. We had better experiences from Echo & Rig before and we enjoyed the tomahawks at every visit. Unfortunately, this experience was not as superb as the ones in the past. Hope it could be better especially on chaotic evenings like this one.

    My Ribeye steak was cooked to perfection & had excellent flavor. My wife’s Bavette steak was not to her standards - she said it had a bitter aftertaste. The server was very accommodating & removed it from the bill. They also provided a free dessert for my wife’s birthday.
