Echoes Restaurant & Bar Blue Mountains

"Visited the Echos Restaurant for a birthday lunch last week and the first thing that screams amazing is how beautiful the restaurant is with the panoramic views of the blue mountains. The whole ambience of the restaurant and hotel is rustic and beautiful. We ordered the Pan Seared Scallops which was so flavourful. For mains we ordered the Lamb backstrap, which was cooked to perfection. The Lamb was juicy and the minced lamb dumplings on the side left us craving for more. The slow cooked ocean trout was a bit too salty for our liking. For dessert we ordered the Apple Tarte Tartin, which was slightly underwhelming compared to the rest of our meals. We would probably try then Matcha Creme Brulee on our next visit. The service was flawless and the staff were extremely friendly and polite. On a whole, it was a beautiful experience and we will be back soon."

"Just don’t bother. The atmosphere started off promising with the table we were given. And then a table of 15 sat down behind us. The meal also started off promising with the amuse-bouche which was a scallop, the same as the entree my husband ordered. And then the main was served. The waiter actually told me the reason the meat was cold was because I ordered it medium-rare. It was replaced with an over-cooked bit of meat instead which was inedible! And every course was served with seaweed. So disappointed!! We won’t go there again."

"Delicious 2 course meal - meats were perfectly cooked with delicious flavours accompanying and impeccable service. Would love to visit again, for lunch next time, to fully enjoy the view as going for dinner meant the spectacular views were hidden."

"A restaurant with a breathtaking view and delicious food. We highly recommend the Tuna entree was very tasty and the wasabi cream was amazing; the taste of wasabi but without the heat! For the main the beef tenderloin was the stand out; quality meat cooked perfectly. Finally for dessert the Banana Cheesecake; the perfect way to end a delicious lunch. Many thanks to the staff who made us feel very welcome!"

"We were lucky to get a window seat & really enjoyed the relaxing ambience & gorgeous views. Food was quite flavourful and had a Japanese twist to the standard modern Australian cuisine, the lamb & beef was cooked perfectly tender and was generous serving sizes too! The only down side was the extreme humidity & heat we had to dine in. There was no aircon & we felt like we were in a sauna. It wasn’t the most luxurious experience but overall we still liked the food & ambience."
