Excellent dinner. Both the French onion soup and Clam chowder were nice. For the main, I had the Miso Chilean Sea Bass and my wife the Barbequed Scottish Salmon both of which were very good. Service was good. Nice stop.

When in Vail, be sure to make your reservation to dine here. The menu is unique and delicious. My favorite is the Scottish Salmon. You will never be disappointed dining here. Sorry, no photos this time... but don't miss dining here.

We visited Montauk twice during our stay. Food was delicious. Our server, Alex, was so great that we requested him for our second night of dining. They were very accommodating through out the entire meal. We will definitely dine there again on our next trip to Vail.
We had a great server his name was John we waited a bit for drinks but was very attentive and apologized. He also described each of the meals very well and also a bit how the chef cooks very jovial guy and attentive

We had an excellent dinner on Thursday with 4 people.everything was on point. Must try the mussels and an order off bread to dip into the delicious sauce . The lobster tail add on was HUGE and buttery! The steaks were cooked perfectly. Our server was so attentive..I wish I remembered their name to give props! We will be back!

What an excellent dinner experience! I love Montauk and it's definitely one of my top 3 favorite spots in Vail. Don't be scared to have seafood in a landlocked state - Montauk NAILS it. I had the Sea Scallop Carbonara and the scallops were grilled to absolute melt-in-you-mouth perfection, nothing tough or stringy about it. The pasta was creamy and delicious. Raw oysters on the half shell? Yes please! My boyfriend had the King Crab Legs which were phenomenal, and they also slit open the legs for easy access to the meat so he wasn't struggling to crack them. The cocktails were fresh, the wine list seemed great (I don't have extensive wine knowledge), and our waiter Jon was amazing. He really treated and took care of us which truly makes or breaks a dinner. When you're ignored and expected to get in, eat, get out, it makes a huge difference to the experience. Jon took his time to talk to us, made sure everything was good, and threw in a little decaf espresso at the end of our meal. Don't knock the decaf! It was superb.

Food was wonderful! Beyond wonderful really. Our server (Jon) was very attentive and took care of our every need - right on time. The additional staff was also on-time and helped make our experience wonderful.

Although the front hostess lady was not very accommodating. Our server Brian was amazing and made up for it with his genuine kindness. The food was superb and delicious.

Very disappointing dining experience. We having been coming here for over 20 years but will not be returning. First, the ambience of the back room we were seated in was not conducive to an enjoyable meal. Very loud with bright overhead lights and tight seating. Tough to carry on a conversation over the noise once the room filled up. The miso Chilean sea bass was served on a burned frittata that was terrible. We told the waitress and she took $13 off the bill but you don't come to a place like this to eat mediocre food. The grilled scallops were served cold. Too bad because we previously considered it one of the best places to eat in Lionshead.
Excellent. The food is so much more refined than the menu indicateurs. We had a few oysters, delicious salad, swordfish and scallops, a fantastic Vermentino... what a meal. Service was great but we did feel à little pushed out at the end. Turnaround....

Eric was our server, he was pretty good at lerting us know what was good and his preferences! We had the muscles, I normally dont like shelled fish. These, however with the bread.....so good! The calamari with thai chilli sauce was perfect! I had the Chillean Sea Bass. Ive had better, but it worked really well with the rest of the pallette on the plate!. ...I would recommend this place in a heart beat!

great food at Montauk Seafood Grill. We had some a shrimp cocktail to start, the shrimps tasted wonderful, and then their famous ahi tuna which was also amazing. One of the best places we've tried in Lionshead (Vail).
Server was excellent but Maitre d made us wait 30 min when we arrived early despite several open tables that were not filled by our time of reservation. I had to remind her several times after our reservation time to get seated. Poor customer service on her end.

Food was ok, filet mignon was over cooked.. overall I felt this restaurant was overhyped. Not worth the price
