This place is definitely a vibe. There was live music Saturday night around 9-11ish. I ate the ribeye tacos & the bartender Angel made the most delicious mocktails for me! It's a really nice space overall. There's also a free parking lot across the street. read more

Echoes Cafe is a rad spot with a simple menu. We started out sitting at the bar, and then ordered dips and moved to a table on the patio. The view of Richmond Ave is nice and we caught the sunset. Good music, good vibes. Another visit was to a market. Enjoyed the different local vendors set up, especially the baker! read more

Echoes Cafe - Tulip market - Greek Near Me - Houston, Texas

What a hidden gem. It's a super cute place tucked off in front of a neighborhood. The space is cozy with a small indoor and then an extended covered patio. They have live music nightly and the band that was there that night was phenomenal, So phenomenal that I was out the door to leave and had to turn back around to listen to the rest of the set. It had me in a CHOKEHOLD. This is a great place to go for all occasions whether your solo which I was, girls night or even on a date. Inside is very cozy for a date. The wait staff was superb and the food was good. I had the Muhammara dip and the pan seared calamari. The only suggestion I would make for the calamari is a little bit more seasoning, possibly more lemon. It was a little bit drab in the flavor even after squeezing a lemon wedge on it. There's also a spot downstairs that has a real local feel.. They have different DJs come through and it has his own little vibe so you get a two in one deal. read more

Came here on a Thursday evening and it was quite packed... Their dedicated parking lot was full so I opted to pay for valet. Once I got inside, it was pretty crowded and loud. I definitely wouldn't recommend coming here if you were looking for an intimate date spot. I was luckily able to secure a small table. I ordered some light bites: the potato croquettes and eggplant tempura. The croquettes were standard but I enjoyed the eggplant! It was very crispy and had a tasty tomato sauce on top. I tried the Time Out of Mind cocktail... it wasn't for me personally. A bit too strong and not very delicious... There was also live music playing by the time I got my food. Good vibes, but very loud! It's hard to have a conversation when they play so definitely keep that in mind. The best part about this place is probably getting to see the sunset from their patio. Definitely come here if you're looking for more of a lively atmosphere from a bar. read more

I first learned about Echoes a few months ago when I attended a coquito bartending competition (sadly, their bartender didn't win). Shortly after that, I discovered that they were participating in Eat Drink HTX (i.e. the mini version of HRW) so my good friend Helene and I decided to have brunch. They have a small parking lot in front of the restaurant. There's street parking in the neighborhood as well as a free parking lot across the street. The lot is moderate in size and there was plenty of parking at the time of our visit. The cafe is located on the 2nd floor. There is an elevator if you aren't able to take the stairs. The dining room is small and quaint. There's also seating on their covered balcony. Our server was Benazir and she was extremely nice. We were already aware of the EDH menu, but she made a point to mention it to us which I appreciated. The EDH brunch menu was $15 and it came with two courses. I had the Echoes Potatoes and Greek Omelette. The Echoes Potatoes were phenomenal! The feta and lemon aioli elevated the appetizer. The Greek Omelette was tasty as well and the portion was great. Both courses were brought out at the same time which was perfect because the flavors of the potatoes complimented the omelette. I tried some of Helene's Spanokopita and Souvalaki Plate and both were tasty! The spanokopita was so flaky and buttery and the spinach and feta filling was delicious. Helene was able to order one salmon and one chicken skewer on her souvalaki plate. I tasted the salmon and it was so good! It had a slight char to it which I really liked. They have an interesting cocktail menu, but I went with a bellini and a mimosa since it was brunch. The bellini wasn't quite as sweet as I was expecting. If you don't want alcohol, they have zero proof drinks as well as coffee and fresh squeezed juices. Dinner is served until 10pm and they have specials like steak night and Taco Tuesday. They also have live music in the evenings. Happy hour is Tues - Sat and they even do reverse happy hour specials on Tues-Thurs, and Sunday from 11p-2a. Perfect for night owls! read more

Because sometimes you just need to chill over Sunday brunch with a good friend. Love the Eat, Drink, HTX menus. It is like the little sister to Houston Restaurant Week. Brunch is such a good deal at $15 for an appetizer and an entree. Lots of great choices on the Echoes Cafe menu. Met my good friend, Tiffany, for a nice brunch. We ordered a variety of appetizers and entrees. Benazir gave us recommendations and VIP service. For starters, the Echoes Potatoes are so delicious. Potatoes topped with feta cheese, parsley and dill with a lemon aioli sauce. Spanakopita is a savory Greek pastry filled with spinach and feta cheese wrapped in a phyllo dough. They are served as three pastries. For the souvlaki plate, I got a salmon skewer and a chicken skewer. They are served over a bed of crispy French fries with pita, a tomato and onion salad with a side of tzatziki. A delightful taste of Greece. Tiffany got the Greek omelette. Filled with tomatoes, onion, peppers and feta cheese, it was so delicious. Located on the second floor, there is an oversized outdoor balcony perfect for a nice sunny day. Love the natural lighting as there are so many windows. Not too crowded on a Sunday afternoon. Lots of parking in the lot across the street on Richmond. Thanks again to Benazir for the 5-star service. A great choice on the Eat, Drink, HTX menu. Available until February 28. read more

Echoes is such a vibe that I was craving, I spontaneously stopped by with my young gentleman, just to catch a vibe on a chilly night, for a short spell. (temp was low as 52 degrees, plus a breeze). Service was always a pleasure here, everyone is so lovely, felt like seeing family. Note: Guest under the age 18 must be accommodated by a parent after 9pm. I love that! This is a family affair. It's open seating which I love that. Live Turkish band was performing cool tunes. We ordered two hot chocolates, (not menu items). However, the beautiful Benazir made it happened. Now Echoes don't have hot chocolate to offer, but the bar guy came and told her that they had chocolate syrup. Benazir put all the chocolate love into that cup, I was expecting it to be a bit watered down. No sir, The taste was all the way there! Ms. Benazir defiantly fulfill the request on adding the extra love of chocolate in our cups. Flaws: -1. The hot cocoa temperature missed the mark though. We wanted hot chocolate to heat our bodies temp up. It wasn't really very warm chocolate, we drunk it down in two gulps. (It was so good in flavor, but less than Luke warm in temp). -1. I paid full price, $4/ea and left a tip. (w/o a remake or a discount, I didn't even ask for military discount). -1/2. Their is smoking friendly on the patio (I guess) which blows into the cafe as well. Which messes with my respiratory, my throat feels scratchy, and itchy. -1/2. They were no heaters during this visit. The low temp was unexpected, so I definitely understand. Extra Love: Benazir made the hot coco with milk instead of water, like Alicia Keys did for the guy that comes in on his lunch break. She'll be making mines next time, with extra love on the heat though. Bartender Jason B, offered to go downstairs to haul up a heater for me, but no worries we were heading out. I didn't want him to go out his way. But what a sweet dedicated guy. I love that Jason and Benazir remembered me from my previous visit. Which means a lot to me. I really wanted to bring my son to EC (Echoes Cafe) after viewing the brunch menu, because we are breakfast taco lovers. We missed out due to Brunch Time last Sunday, so we'll be trying again another Sunday afternoon. read more

Stopped by for happy hour (TUESDAY-SATURDAY 4-7pm, All Cocktails $9, 50% Off Wine Bottles) to try out some of Echoes' many creative cocktail recipes while enjoying the Rise Rotation Revolution Celebrating Gil Scott-Heron and Herb Alpert. Today, I tried the Timbiriche, made of Kumquat-infused Haku Vodka, Mal Bien Joven Mezcal, Carabuena Añejo Tequila, Mole Bitters, Orange Bitters. My friends tried the MOONLIGHT FLIGHT )Suntori Toki, Italicus, Lemon, Creme De Violette) and UNTITLED EP #1 (Makers 46, Jim Bean Black, Grapefruit-Sage-Juniper Shrub). Always a great time at Echoes! read more

Came across this establishment scrolling IG they have live music certain nights different genres, open wed-Sunday. My gal pals and I decided to meet for HH on a Wednesday. Parking limited right in front of building I believe valet is available after a certain time but there is free parking across the street . The cafe it self is upstairs (a lift is available) very simple decor patio is really nice. HH starts at 4 but the kitchen doesn't open until 5. Food was great the HH drink specials decent but still range about 9$ or more. Half of wine bottles. I had the salmon skewers that I'd definitely order again seasoned and juicy !! The other ladies had tacos which both gave 10/10 and said would order again. The fried zucchini I'd wish was a little thicker but I thought was all good just not enough zucchini for me. All in all I' will definitely be back. read more

Friday night I heard the music and I decided to stop in. There was parking along the street and a small lot as well with about 10-12 spots. Downstairs was a relaxed Latin vibe with outdoor seating and upstairs was a bar with a dj playing 90s deep cuts. The place wasn't packed and there was plenty of seating at the bar and on the balcony. A easy relaxed environment that allows for conversation and mellow vibes. read more

I was genuinely surprised with how good the ribeye tacos were. For a combination greek-Mexican kitchen these tacos did not have to serve so hard. Ofcourse the live music always adds to the dining experience, check their instagram for themed nights .Big Paloma guy here and they make it real nice here. Bring the boo thang here you won't regret it. read more

A few friends had mentioned they were interested in trying out this restaurant/bar and since we couldn't find anyway to make a reservation online (nobody answered when we tried to call) we figured we'd just show up. Upon arrival, we noted this location has a parking lot across the street and there is limited street parking. It's also important to note it's on the second floor. The elevator was out of order so if you have someone who's handicap in your party I'd recommend calling in advance to ensure accessibility. We were able to sit immediately upon arrival, but elected to be outside as it's quite noisy inside and there was a live band setting up too. We figured we'd be unable to hear ourselves talk if we stayed inside. Food and Drink - 3.5* We chose the trio of dips and smoked eggplant tempura for appetizers. Both were good, but nothing overly impressive. For main dishes our party chose the ribeye tacos, souvlaki plate, and roasted shrimp pasta. We enjoyed each, but the ribeye tacos were notably the favorite. The drinks were all great, with the gin and tonics being the hits of the table. Service - 4.5* Since we sat out on the patio, there was far less people given the cooler temperatures, which led to a bit longer of a wait to get food or drink orders. That said, the bartender, who was doubling as our server, was attentive to our needs. He seemed incredibly busy given how much was going on inside. Cost - 4* Again, always subjective, but in my view the pricing here was a plus. All the dishes and drinks were priced well, nothing overtly exorbitant. Overall - 3.5* I'd put this at 3.5*, but with the drinks and service I'll give it the edge to 4*. I don't think we'd come here again just to eat unless it was for a quick bite, but it is worth a visit for drinks and live music if that's something you're looking for. read more

Came for Sade night and the vibe seemed great but it took forever to find a table and then after finding one we waited for over 40 minutes for a server. Went to the bar to try to order a drink and they just told me that the bartender was going to come to our table. Finally flagged down the bartender and then he just told us to wait. That was after 40 minutes of him doing multiple rounds to other tables and he never even stared at our table. The vibe was nice but it's not worth since it's overly crowded and the bad service definitely didn't help. read more

Amazing drinks. Delicious food. Made me listen to Pink Floyd and love the story of the bar. Was on the patio and the sun pummeled me. Would advise a screen of some sort to lessen the sun given we are in Texas with horrendous summers. read more

I absolutely loved the live music, service and ambiance. It was such a great date night experience.

Most people come here for the drinks, but the food is also really good. I've been for brunch and dinner. We've had the Echoes potatoes, the octopus, and the shrimp pasta. All were very tasty. And yes the drinks are good. This place is a vibe too. The rooftop is perfect. Will definitely return. read more

My husband and I live close and decided to have a date night here the other evening. We wondered why we hadn't been before! We came right at the tail end of happy hour and ordered ourselves the three dip trio and two of their house cocktails. The service was great- all of the workers there were very kind. Shoutout the the manager, Nate, and Jackson. Everyone was so kind to us, the food was delicious and so were the drinks. We left before the live music at 9PM, but thoroughly enjoyed our time there and will definitely be back again! read more

Echoes exceeded expectations. The atmosphere provided excellent ambiance. The pleasant cool spring like weather played a huge part in that, with open space patio to interior. The kitchen produced a superb beet salad and the spanakopita and "Greek lasagna" (I forget what the proper name for it is) proved the chef can satisfy the hungry music lover. The staff attended well to all aspects of maintaining an atmosphere for live music and gathering space for friends & fellows. read more

So happy I ran across Echoes. A happy hour that goes until 7 with delicious craft cocktails and nice appetizers that have big portions and great quality. We got 4 drinks and the fries, dip trio, ands spanakopitas. I usually don't like smoky food but the red pepper walnut dip is my favorite. Fries were hot with a great garlic sauce. The spanakopita wasn't the best I've had but you get a lot for $9. For drinks we got the mother of pearl (real earthy, nice but wouldn't get again), the sensacional (my friend said was refreshing and strong), the La Carchaca (even better tequila drink my friend said) and the Take a walk on the wild cider (I love cinnamon. One of the better warm cocktails I've had). I look forward to coming back for the brunch and live entertainment late nights. Newly opened and I hope they are successful with a great second floor space with a patio and quaint inside. The servers were super cool and attentive too! read more

Echoes is a Pink Floyd inspired rooftop patio restaurant and bar dedicated to exploring eclectic sounds and serving quality drinks and bites! I was so in love with the crisp King salmon! It was placed on a bed of quinoa and arugula salad with lemon vinaigrette that I legit could eat that everyday! The trio of dips were amazing! I'm a big eggplant fan so when I saw it had the melitzanosalata, I was besides myself! Paired with the pita?! 10/10 recommend! And of course we can't forget the spanakopita I love a good spinach feta moment. The chargrilled octopus was also the perfect touch! Finally, that orange almond cake was a perfect dessert to end the party I had going on in my mouth! No need to book the trip to Greece now that I found a spot with these delicious eats! The staff was extremely hospitable and made for an even better experience! Check them out IG: @neekxkitchen read more

Starts off great then shift change occurs and hell breaks loose. I think that the transition should be smoother and the music should be softer. Other than that, love it! Super cute place. Ample parking across the street. Unique drinks. Yay! read more

Place is chill but for salsa night was horrible and bartenders do not move with a purpose very slow and messing up drink orders. No bartenders look in a good mood aswell only the guy in the mini bar outside. Place was too small for big event like that.i personally will not come back again and do not recommend TBH. read more

We finally tried Echoes and can't stop going back. The food, drinks and vibes are just spot on. The staff are super friendly and attentive. The gyro Thursday special is as close as being in Athens you can get. This spot should be a Montrose staple as it fits the neighborhood perfectly. read more
