| - My boyfriend and I decided to try The Montauk for dinner last night, but unfortunately, we weren't that impressed. We had been here once before for brunch, and though the food wasn't memorable to me, I did like the atmosphere and look of the restaurant, and I wanted to try the dinner menu.
The service was good for the most part - we were seated right away and didn't have to wait long to put in our drink and food orders. The only problem was that we ordered an appetizer we really wanted to try, the Crispy Rock Shrimp, and never received it. When we got our meals before the appetizer, we assumed our waitress just hadn't heard us, but were later surprised to see it on our bill. Luckily she was really easygoing about it and took the charge off right away, but it was still kind of a bummer.
For dinner, my boyfriend ordered the Fish and Chips, and I got the Turkey and Egg Sandwich. Neither of us really liked our food, and we're really not that picky, so it's not like this happens often lol. For him, the fish was really plain - just battered with no seasoning. I thought the sandwich was a little bland as well considering all of the toppings (tomato, havarti, avocado, and pesto aioli). To me, it was really just a mess, and I was surprised it was just on a plain hamburger bun, because that made it really soggy.
I will say that their french fries are delicious, I'd have been happy with just an order of those :) another redeeming quality for this place is their happy hour (M-F, 3-6p). Draft beers are only $3, and they offer all of their appetizers for half price!
