Food was delicious! I got the French dip and it was the best I've ever had! Will be coming here again!

This is a cute old house turned into a cozy restaurant. From what I could see, there was one lady running the show-she might have had a helper in the kitchen, but it wouldn't surprise me if she was also the one preparing the food. However, even though it was a small "staff," service was top notch and welcoming. I enjoyed an order of Pad Thai while my dining partner had the Red Curry. We both acknowledged that the dishes were different than we had experienced in other restaurants in the past. Not bad, just different....unexpected. My Pad Thai had almost a tomato/sweet flavor to it. I'm not sure it's going to be my new favorite, but it was pleasant enough. I'd likely return, but I might try a different dish-maybe something new to me so I don't have a preconceived notion of what it "should" be like. read more

Montauk Bistro - Asian Fusion Near Me - Draper, Utah

We were warmly greeted and seated promptly. Although this place serves Vietnamese (similar) dishes and a couple of American entrees (burger) the food was decent and we felt satiated. We had the lettuce wraps, banh mi sandwich (bread was not as soft as I'd expected, but had more crunch). The burger was actually good and flavorful! Don't have expectations in experiencing authentic Vietnamese entrees, as the owner is from Laos and although they have similar dishes to Vietnamese, not quite the same. The restaurant seemed a tad run down. Place could use a good wipe down cleaning. But overall happy to support a mom and pop shop! read more

The food here is absolutely amazing! My wife and I are regulars here! We love when people come into town, just so we can bring them here. We have yet to be disappointed with anything we've ordered! The service and ambiance are also great here! Plus it's always great to support local! read more

This is a very cute little restaurant which has a cozy house vibe to it. The service was great as the chef would come out to interact with us quite a bit. I came in for lunch and was excited to try the Pad Thai as I heard that this was their most popular dish. I really wanted to enjoy it as I heard they even grow their own bean sprouts. I will say that the ingredients they use are incredibly fresh. However the reason for the 2 star review is that I found a long hair in my food and felt there was simply way too much sauce. Everytime I went to pick up the noodles I would get splashed by all the sauce dripping off of my fork. The sauce was also very tart which made it a bit overpowering. read more

Delicious food as always. Service was great. The owner is very personable and friendly. Top notch service. Definitely will come back soon.

The food was authentic and tasty. I got the pad thai and it was unlike any other I've had before, much tangier and less focused on the peanut flavor. The owners are very friendly and even came over to our table to chat for a bit. Overall, a good experience! Recommend! read more

Had the beef pho. I am a pho aficionado having sampled the soup from at least 20 different Vietnamese restaurants. This was, hands down, the worst pho I have ever tasted. The key is always the broth which should be complex, with a slightly sweet and Asian spice flavor. This broth tasted like it came out of a Swanson's carton. YUCK! Maybe the usual cook was sick that day? First and last visit. Can't fathom the 4 and a half star rating. read more

Extremely comfy, locally owned and operated Asian/Vietnamese/American place. It's made out a converted very old home with both indoor and outdoor seating. Some of the indoor seating is next to a wood-burning fireplace. The owner and chef is a kind woman who checked on us frequently during our stay and told us about how she grows the bean sprouts she serves in her own kitchen! My Rib Eye Burger was very good, and made with top quality ingredients, though it was a bit smaller than I would have liked for the price. Not holding that against it, though. Try them! read more

When you stumble upon what is clearly the best restaurant in town you realize yelp is suppressing the best food experience available in your local community. I've lived here for years and why hasn't this showed up in my Yelp results ever?? Banh mi and massaman curry were everything you could hope for. Local diamond in the corporate rough. read more

We came here based on the rating and having passed it so many times before. We both enjoy Thai and were curious and hopeful it would be good. We started with the lettuce wraps. The texture wasn't great and the flavor was lacking. They brought out hoisin sauce and sriracha after we had almost finished the wraps. The additional flavor would have helped. My wife tried the Panang curry. It was lacking in flavor as well and seemed to be heavy in veggies more like a salad, with rice at the bottom. My French dip had extremely thin strips of meat. A sandwich should visibly display toppings from the profile, but this one looked like nothing but two slices of bread. The horseradish aioli was nice, but the pho just lacked much flavor. The location is an older historic home in the area which was unique. The owner was nice. I'm rounding up from what was closer to 2.5 stars. You may have better luck than us, but my impression was - Lackluster read more

Delicious banh mi. The bread was perfectly crisp and crusty and all the ingredients were very fresh. My only complaint is it lacked a little flavor. I resolved this by adding hoisin and sriracha at the table. The pho broth is amazing. My wife says to think twice before adding any sauces or lime, since it starts out so good it can't be improved on. The owner is very nice and grows her own bean sprouts. And the dining room was nice and cool even though it was 90 degrees outside. read more

We decided to try this place based on the rating. Having been to various Thai restaurants in Salt Lake and Utah counties, this is easily towards the bottom of the list. The restaurant doesn't have a great layout, the seating is not comfortable, and when we went the air was out so it was hot. A lot to be desired here especially if you compare this place to Baan Thai at the Traverse Outlets. The menu is very limited compared to other Thai places. We tried the lettuce wraps and Pad Thai. I enjoyed the Pad Thai but the lettuce wraps were just okay. The Diet Coke tasted flat. I wonder if they just have canned soda versus a fountain. read more

Not very clean - dusty and dingy when looking around. The food was very average compared to so many other similar places in SLC. We went for lunch to try first time and it was empty the entire time we were there. read more

I had the Pad Thai. It was so good! Pretty much everything made from scratch by the sound of it and by the taste. They opened in 2019 and weathered Covid. No wonder, this place is great. Owned by husband and wife. Definition of hole in the wall. Delicious! Thank you. read more

Looked like this place is run by two owners on a Friday night. They both were rushing around trying to take care of the diners. The ambiance is like being in someone's house with a handful of tables set around the dining room plus entryway. That's literally what it is, an old house dining room plus side area. It's small and noisy. There is a few meal options that are both Thai and American with a French influence. The pad Thai noodles were over cooked (a bit mushy) but had good flavoring with big chunks of grilled chicken vs. the tiny bits you usually get at Thai restaurants. My French dip was kind of ok. It comes on a super crunchy baguette but with tiny slices of beef in 1 layer so it's not noticeable. Served with pho instead of au jus, giving it even less beef flavor, and not enough breading to soak up the pho. The horseradish aioli (more like just horseradish) comes on the side; which is probably good to let you decide how much, if any, to add to your sandwich. The salad was my favorite with its savory yet sweet vinaigrette already mixed in. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat here, but would try again if in the area. We'd try different menu options to see if ordering something else would bump up our rating. read more

A small house converted into a cozy restaurant creates a welcoming atmosphere. The chai is house-made and super flavorful. The lettuce wraps were crispy and fresh. The curry was rich and packed with veggies and the sweet mango rice was creamy and delicious! The portions are great for the price. I can't wait to come back soon! read more

DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BUSINESS. Today, my 80-year-old, army veteran grandfather was met with profanities and utter disrespect from the owner, Brian, of the Bistro staff for mistakenly placing garbage in the bin nearest to them. This man used every expletive in the book and flung them like weapons at my grandpa, who is as kind and gentle as is humanly possible. Brian then proceeded to follow my grandfather around for some time, even after he had apologized and offered to remove the cardboard thrown away. Now, mind you, this sweet elderly member of my family was there helping his daughter put together furniture for her new business. I am absolutely disgusted with these horrific actions from an OWNER of a local business and the obvious disregard he showed for a senior member of our society. I'm sure the food here would actually be good if he spent half the time making it as he did yelling obscenities at the elderly...but it is just as disappointing as Brian and his actions today. read more

Really enjoyed this place for a nice late spring work lunch! It is a hidden gem, for sure! Service was a little slow to get started, but I credit that to us arriving when they opened for lunch on a Wednesday. We sat on the patio since it wasn't boiling hot or extremely windy, which was a good call. The patio seating faces west, so in the afternoon you would be in the direct sunlight. To counteract this, they added sunshades that cover the view but provide shade. (You aren't missing out since the view off the patio is the backside of the buildings across the street.) I tried the massaman curry rice bowl with tofu and my colleagues ordered the banh mi and the sloppy chicken. There was a lot of "mmm"-ing around the table while we ate. I really enjoyed the flavor of the bowl and the sauce comes on the side so that you can choose how much to add. The server came by and checked with me that there was enough sauce. (Apparently, folks complained in the past about there being too much sauce and thus too much salt.) It was a perfect amount of sauce using the whole amount. I also ordered the mango sticky rice, because why not? It was delicious but a little too sweet for my liking. read more

FOOD POISONING: Lost five productive days, FIVE!!! Bed to toilet - that's all I did. Stay Away!!! My friend and I were there on Tuesday September 10, 2024 for lunch just around noon. We split a bison burger and steamed wonton. That evening I started not feeling well. It's Friday and I'm still throwing up. My friend said he feels better today. The server was nice. I think it was the burger. I'm not used to the flavor of bison but this had sort of a sharp cheese taste. I should have known. read more

Always great service and food in a wonderful, cozy atmosphere. This is definitely my favorite restaurant in Draper, if not all of Utah!

Excellent, attentive, friendly staff. Wife and husband run the restaurant. Very nice people. They checked in several times to check on needs. Set in a cozy home, wooden floors, pillars, window frames. Had the Panang curry with tofu. Very fresh, made to order. Individual bowl with all ingredients, not family style. Mango sticky rice for dessert. Served warm. Liked it a lot. Tried the licorice mint tea. Pleasant. Will be back soon. Would like to try the Massaman curry and potstickers. Plan on getting mango sticky rice again. read more

This was a very spontaneous stop for us. I was actually on my way to a different restaurant when I passed by Montauk Bistro and had a "What's that? I gotta go back and check" moment. After managing to get turned around and parked (not just street parking - they do have additional parking behind the building) I decided to try it out. It was past the time they typically make crepes, but apparently they hadn't put all the crepe-making tools/stuff/whatever it takes to make crepes away and were willing to make some for me. I (unhappily) shared my crepes with the wife and ordered the pho while she ordered their version of a sloppy-joe chicken. Everything was amazing (yes, I made the wife share her sloppy-joe which is only fair since she ate half my crepes, right?). The pho broth was absolutely fantastic - one of the best I've ever tasted. Sometimes when you order pho you get one really strong flavor that comes through in the broth - whether that be anise, cardamom, or umami. The pho at Montauk Bistro was very well balanced and it did not taste like one flavor was overwhelming the others and they all played quite nicely with each other. The wife's sloppy-joe was also pretty tasty, but I'd have to say that the winner today was the pho. I'll definitely be back (I still need to try their sticky mango rice! It felt like over-indulgence if I had the crepes and the sticky rice, so I decided to save that for another day. lol) read more

Sad to report that it's pretty average. I had such high hope coming in after wanting to try it for a while. The reviews made it sound like such a great spot but tbh, everything was kind of average at best. Cute ambiance that's a bit rarer in Draper but besides that, the food is quite microwaveable-taste. And take it from a pepper lover like myself when I say they just go heavy with the cracked peppers on every single dish...kind of defeats the purpose of flavoring.. read more

Didn't know this place was in business since May, and that there were businesses in that area of Draper. Kinda cool! There were 3 of us in our party and we sat outside, there was a nice cool breeze. We ordered Thai iced tea, chicken lettuce wraps, wedge salad, Pho, and Pad Thai. Lettuce wraps were tasty, wedge salad needed more blue cheese, the Pho had a nice flavorful non-greasy broth and excellent pieces of beef, sadly only about 3 small pieces. The Pad Thai had a nice sauce to it. The chef is from Laos and loved the way Pho was prepared. For sure will be back! read more

Amaaaazing fresh ingredients and delicate flavors. Food made with love and it's apparent with each carefully crafted and selected to be on the menu. We've had take out and dined in and every time the same quality deliciousness comes out. Also, the prices are very reasonable as well. Tucked in off of Fort street, its homey charm and cozy feel has us coming back. Also, the service has always been incredible each time at this family owned local spot. I also need to mention to save room for dessert!!! Or just stop by for dessert and a coffee. Glad this Asian American bistro spot is in Draper without the commercial cookie cutter feel that has taken over the area and kept it charming and special. read more

Do not be fooled by the charm. It's a cute old house and a very sweet lady runs it but the food is bad. I got the pad Thai after reading some reviews. It seemed popular and a top seller. It tasted like noodles with watery bbq sauce and peanuts. A few hours after I got home I started to feel so sick. Again, do not be fooled by the charm. read more

We were really craving Thai food and found this place close to my daughters apartment. We ordered 2 dishes the panang and yellow curry. They both tasted exactly the same. Both dishes were chicken and came exactly the same with cabbage and other vegetables. 2 different sauces were on the side. Most definitely didn't taste anything like Thai food - more like stew. I've never seen cabbage in panang curry. No seasonings at all. They gave a powder red pepper on the side to add yourself if you wanted spicy. This powder was awful. Luckily we tested it first. read more

We love the vibe and the design of this place! It's boutique, warm and cozy! We tried out the pho, it's not the best that we have had but we still enjoy our dinner very much! I like that they did serve the vegetable on the side like how the authentic pho is served in Vietnam! The owner is very accommodating and he serves us a lot of lime and chili! read more

Stopped into town to visit my family for a few days and we stumbled upon this little Asian fusion restaurant. The greeting was a little "cold" when we got there and it took a minute or two longer for the waitress,but after this the experience got better. It is a nice little quaint restaurant with a cozy seating area in front of their herb and vegetable garden. We ordered food and first I will say that I'm not sure how "fusion" they are other than having different types of food on the menu but I will say the quality and freshness are awesome. O ordered the rib-eye burger and it was juicy and tasty! My wife ordered the Pad Thai and she also loved it. The owners soon came to our table to check in and that sparked a fun conversation. If back in the Draper Sandy area - I'll stop back by for something else. I'd definitely recommend this for a nice casual place to eat! read more

Phenomenal food cooked with a homemade touch. The owners made us feel right at home and were incredibly kind. After leaving, I felt like a had an authentic meal that was made the right way. We are from out of town but would go out of our way to eat here again. 10/10! read more

This is a very very small converted house. I'm not sure if the house has no AC or if it was just broken when we went. But it was Very hot inside. Too hot to enjoy a hot meals. It definitely affected our meal and enjoyment of it. So please take that into consideration as you read this. Maybe call first to see if they have AC or if it's working before you go. The owners are the chefs and wait staff. They were pretty attentive while we were there. We ordered the pot stickers, lettuce wraps and the roast beef sandwich with Ajou. Both the lettuce wraps and the pot stickers were just ok. Under seasoned in my opinion but fairly decent flavor. Nothing special. The pot roast sandwich was the best of show. I have to say the bread was special. Great flavor with a soft inside and great crunchy crust. It was wonderful. The beef was pretty standard and the consume to dip it in was enjoyable. Again, wouldn't describe it as amazing but I can confident recommend it as something most people would like. They don't serve water with ice in it. That hurt the experience given how warm it was inside. I really can't recommend until AC is working or installed. Or maybe wait until the weather is cooler. read more

The food was so fresh and delicious. The owners are such nice people. Pie, as it's pronounced for short, is so sweet. She came out and explained each dish and really made us feel at home. The restaurant is in such a cool part of Draper. We will definitely be back. read more

We travel Far To Find Quaint Places - NOW HERE IN DRAPER! What a gem! This is the type of cool place my wife and I seek out when we go to New York, San Francisco or Paris. Now it is in our backyard. When you go, expect: 1. Great service, the owners cook and serve you. They might ask you several times if you like it. 2. Extremely fresh and flavorful food 3. Pretty fast! 4. Quaint location and setting 5. Very reasonable 6. Not a chain, local business (our money stays here in DRAPER!) Having owned an engineering company in Draper for 25 years, I've seen a lot of growth, but only a few local gems, Guads, Charleston Cafe, Garage Grill and now Montauk. read more
