Where Boulder City Locals Go for Music and Cocktails
For residents of Boulder City, the quiet charm of historic Southern Nevada is home. But when the craving hits for a night immersed in rich acoustics, chef-driven plates, and the electric energy of a creative community, the destination is clear. Just a short drive north, nestled in the heart of 18b, Echo Taste & Sound has become the go-to escape for those seeking a Hi-Fi listening lounge experience that feels worlds away from the typical Las Vegas noise.
We aren't just a bar; we are a sensory experience. Whether you are looking for an Arts District brunch to start your weekend or a sophisticated cocktail lounge in Las Vegas to cap off your evening, Echo blends the warmth of analog sound with the precision of modern hospitality.
More Than a Bar: The Hi-Fi Difference
Why are music lovers making the trip from Boulder City, Henderson, and beyond? It starts with the sound.
As a dedicated Hi-Fi listening lounge in Las Vegas, we prioritize audio fidelity over volume. Our space is acoustically treated and equipped with a high-end sound system designed to play vinyl the way it was meant to be heard. From rare jazz pressings to funk, soul, and global grooves, our curated vinyl selection sets a vibe that encourages conversation rather than drowning it out.
A Sanctuary for Creatives and Couples
The atmosphere at Echo is intentionally designed to be immersive. We are a community-based restaurant and lounge where every element tells a story:
Immersive Sound: A listening experience that reveals the depth and texture of the music.
Visual Art: Our walls feature rotating local art for sale, supporting the vibrant Arts District creative scene.
Botanical Vibes: We host an in-house plant shop sourced from a local florist—everything green you see is available for purchase.
The Vinyl Shop: Dig through our curated crates and take a piece of the sound home with you.
From Day to Night: Brunch, Small Bites, and Blues
Our kitchen matches the fidelity of our speakers. We believe that great music deserves great food, serving as a bridge between a laid-back brunch in Las Vegas and a sultry evening dinner service.
The Weekend Brunch Experience
Friday through Sunday, Echo transforms into the ultimate daytime hang. We serve elevated comfort food that has locals searching for the best brunch in the Las Vegas Arts District. Our menu features soulful staples that pair perfectly with a mimosa or a bloody mary.
Signature Dish: Our shrimp and grits is a fan favorite—creamy, spicy, and comforting.
Comfort Classics: Don't miss the elevated grilled cheese with tomato soup, perfect for a relaxed afternoon.
Evening Tapas and Cocktails
As the sun sets, the lights dim, and the volume adjusts to a lounge vibe. Our evening menu shifts toward tapas and small bites designed for sharing.
Sip & Savor: Our bar program specializes in classic and specialty cocktails, utilizing fresh ingredients and premium spirits.
Dinner Events: Look out for special culinary events like our fried chicken and blues dinner, where crispy, savory flavors meet live rhythm and blues.
A Hub for the Greater Las Vegas Valley
While we are rooted in the Arts District, our community extends far beyond 18b. We are proud to serve guests from Henderson, North Las Vegas, Paradise, Spring Valley, Winchester, Enterprise, and nearby communities like Boulder City.
Whether you are planning a romantic date night, a small group gathering, or seeking a live music venue in Las Vegas that respects the artist and the listener, Echo is your sanctuary. For those looking for exclusivity, our VIP Room offers private chef dining experiences, perfect for celebrating special milestones in an intimate setting.
