• Steakhouse • Tivoli Village

How do you take a classic staple of American dining, the steakhouse, and break down the traditional thinking to create something entirely new and exciting? That was the question that acclaimed chef and restaurateur Sam Marvin (creator of the much-celebrated Los Angeles restaurant Bottega Louie) posed when he decided the time was right to reinvent what has long been the trademarks of the steakhouse genre – masculine vibe, dark rooms, fancy waiters, slabs of oversized beef and overly expensive pricing. The answer became Echo & Rig Butcher and Steakhouse, located at the charming Tivoli Village just off of Summerlin Parkway; 15 minutes from the famed Las Vegas Strip.

Tables are very small for 2 people, especially if you order multiple appetizers. But you will not be disappointed with their food or specials. Little pricey but well worth it. Chef definitely knows how to spice up the meals. Our server Jordan was amazing. Will definitely return & ask for her section.

Great venue. Lively restaurant. Would not recommend if looking for more of a quiet environment. Food came out fast and was delicious. Wait staff and management very attentive. Bathroom could have used a little more attention. Paper towels were overflowing in the receptacle. Water fixture had build up. Being in maintenance, I notice these things. Everything counts. It's all about the overall experience not just the food.
