With a name like The Montauk I expect to be chilling out on an Atlantic ocean-front boardwalk with a lobster roll or some similarly-styled east coast fare. And frankly, that's kind of the feeling you get when dining here, despite the fact that you're in downtown Scottsdale. The open-air feel, cool color palate, and fast-casual attitude prop this all up.
We stopped in for lunch in a large group, and I got to sample the cauliflower fried rice with lobster for my meal. It's a tasty, creative take on fried rice, with that classic American-Chinese fried rice flavor. And low carb! Woot! The lobster was an add-on, and they definitely were not shy with the meat. The lobster roll looks tasty as well.
Service was on point, and while the food did take quite a while to come out, I'm imagining that it was my group of 7's large order that made it so. Otherwise it was a solid experience and I'd definitely return.
