ECHO StSimons Island - Saint Simons

My partner and I went out for dinner to celebrate our recent engagement. The waitress was excellent, allowing us to savor our Prosecco appetizers before placing our dinner orders. As a surprise, she brought out a cheesecake with "congrats" written on the plate for the happy couple. The entire experience was flawless!

The restaurant started off on a disappointing note as they were out of the crab cake appetizer, but my partner and I thoroughly enjoyed the shrimp tacos and honey-soy glazed salmon. The cocktails were excellent. Unfortunately, my wife's chocolate cake dessert was dry. Despite this setback, we appreciated the overall meal, the attentive service, and the staff's effort to seat us away from a loud group.

Date night could have been better, the server might have been overwhelmed with the party of 9 adjacent, but she did not check on us resulting in not receiving our main entree and refilling water glasses even after 45 minutes. We requested the check and it still took another 10 minutes. From that point, the server comped the one glass of wine my gf had. Being in the service industry a proper compensation would have been to comp the dinner and at least a temperature check from management, but none was given even as we were leaving. We were given our dinner in to go boxes and still charged full price. Will attempt another reservation there, but not holding my breath anytime soon.

Fabulous service and meal! Joanne was very accommodating to our special drink needs!

Valentine’s Day dinner so there was a limited menu which is fine. Elected for the filet mignon which I give a 6/10. Service was good but there was an included 20% tip added to the bill. Ambiance is not much at Echo at least at night when there’s no view of the ocean. We were seated at a very small table adjacent to another couple. Everything at King and Prince seems to be overpriced for what you actually receive, but I’m assuming that’s how they maintain receiving only the preferred clientele. Breakfast the next morning was excellent though so maybe the kitchen was just overtasked for dinner.
