The owner/chef was the best. She has skills! Thai, Lao, American...everything was tasty. Highly recommend the ribeye burger--my favorite burger in town.

I had the panang curry and my gf had the pho. The curry was so light and flavorful, id show a photo but i devoured it. The broth on the pho was also very bright and refreshing compared to other pho broths this one is unique and paired with mint instead of basil. The sriracha is homemade and and ABSOLUTELY DIVINE. 10/10
This was also take out.

I absolutely love Montauk Bistro! It's a small, charming, woman owned and operated bistro in beautiful Draper, Utah. It's removed from the shopping district which makes for a much quieter feel. No hustle and bustle to distract you from the amazing food. As it was a gorgeous summer day, my son and I chose to sit on the patio. We were served promptly and treated very courteously. All of our questions were answered and we were given suggestions to help us decide on what each of us would like best. The food came within 15 minutes and was nice and hot (as in recently removed from the burner/stove, not spicy - though it can be prepared spicy if that's your thing). Everything was fresh and prepared from scratch. The flavor was wonderful! I had the Pad Thai. It was sweet, tangy, umami, and just the right amount of spicy for my taste. The veggies were cooked well, but still slightly crunchy (just the way I like it). The rice noodles were cooked to perfection. My son had the Phở with Rare Sirloin. The meat was tender, the veggies perky, and the broth was umami and savory. We enjoyed both dishes so much that we would switch off every 5 minutes so we could each eat as much of the other's meal as we wanted.
As for portion size... IMO portion sizes in the U.S. are out of control. It's part of the reason that, as a country, we are so morbidly obese. The portion size at Montauk was perfect. Enough to feel completely sated, but not stuffed. And not so much that you needed a take home box. Just right. We never had to ask for refills of our drinks. They were just there when we needed them.
The woman who owns and runs the restaurant took the time to introduce herself and even came to sit and chat with us for a while. She is a brave, hard working, independent woman, and I REALLY enjoyed hearing her story.
Thank you for an absolutely wonderful meal! This was the perfect place to bring my son for some quality father/son time, and high quality food. I enjoyed it so much, in fact, that I plan on taking my daughter in the next couple of days.
Thanks again!

Delicious food, warm friendly service, charming space. I ordered the Bahn Mi sandwich, and it was very good. The bread is sourced from a local bakery so it’s fresh and crispy.

Absolutely love this place. I work across the street and we decided to give it a shot and WOW. The food was literally as as fresh as you can get it. They grow their own herbs and veggies and you can literally taste it (SOOO GOOD!). The experience was very cool. The owner was super nice and gave us great service! You can tell she puts nothing but love into her food.
Overall glad we gave this place a shot. I'll definitely be coming back!

Was thinking of going here because it’s close by to where I frequently attend. After reading some reviews, I’m not sure if it is worth my money to try it out… and if I do, I don’t want to be disappointed

Hidden gem. Bahn mi was tasty and filling. Friendly atmosphere, cozy.
The meat in my lettuce wraps was just weird mush, with a weird flavor. I’m not a picky person but after one bite I didn’t want to eat any more. They were the worst chicken lettuce wraps I’ve ever had. I also ordered dumplings and the wraps on them were completely uncooked, thick and tough. I couldn’t eat more than one bite and gave them away. The dumplings also had the same weird chicken mush in them as the wraps. I think this seems like a cute local restaurant and they are trying their best but the food I ordered was inedible.

Easily the best banh mi I've ever had (okay, only the second banh mi I've ever had but it truly was amazing. The bread tasted fresh-baked and the sauce, meat, and vegetables were delicious). The masaman curry was phenomenal, full of fresh veggies. I was very impressed by the presentation as well. We also got the pho--perhaps not the best pho I've ever had, but still a solid 8/10 and was everything a pho should be. I would give everything else 10/10, and the service 12/10. The owner treated us like family. When we had to leave a little sooner than we wanted with our toddler melting down, she was SO kind and packed up our food for us. Great experience and I hope we can come back soon.
