As Labor Day weekend, the unofficial end of summer nears, chef Sam Marvin invites you to join him as he throws open the doors and welcomes his first guests at the beautifully designed Echo & Rig Butcher and Steakhouse in Tivoli Village on Friday, Aug. 30th.  Just in time to help families enjoy a relaxing meal together at the restaurant or visit the spectacular new butcher shop to select the ideal cut of meat for grilling, the Labor Day holiday weekend opening is ideal timing. Boasting an impressive menu of more than 90 items, a remarkable butcher shop showcasing high quality meats and a skillful butcher who can readily recommend the perfect cuts and cooking methods, Echo & Rig is poised to be a favorite destination and experience – not just a place for the best meal in town.

Imagined under acclaimed chef and restaurateur Sam Marvin’s meticulous watch, guests will immediately discover that Echo & Rig is something exceptional. Designed by noted interior designer Carolyn Baylon, floor-to-ceiling showcase windows immerse the eatery with natural light and provide a view directly into the Butcher Shop and to the open concept, two-floor eatery with a balcony overlooking the picturesque scenery. Baylon’s affinity for combining and mixing elements to create timeless environments is evident throughout the impressive 12,500 square foot space.

Echo & Rig Butcher and Steakhouse features an eclectic menu of urban grill-meets-traditional steakhouse in an open dining room complete with an exhibition kitchen, proprietary spices and rubs, a classic cocktail menu with new farm-to-glass twists, the freshest seafood and is the only restaurant with its own namesake butcher shop. Serving breakfast, lunch, dinner, a weekend brunch and late night menu, Echo & Rig Butcher and Steakhouse is the perfect spot to enjoy a meal and select something exquisite to cook up at home the next day.

“Labor Day weekend is a great time to open,” explains Marvin. “Much like the holiday itself, Echo & Rig is synonymous with enjoying great food and drinks with family and friends. Even better, here you get the best of both worlds.  We’ll create a spectacular meal that’s been meticulously thought through and you can also choose from an incredible array of fantastic meats to prepare at home too. We will help you pick out the best cuts for grilling whether you’re looking for traditional burgers and hot dogs or are in search of the supreme steak, chicken or fish for the barbecue.  Our team at Echo & Rig can offer insight and inspiration for the perfect choices and a great homebound culinary experience.  We’ve brought back the neighborhood butcher and you’re going to get the first glimpse of this experience.”
