    Volcano chicken platter
    Rudrasis C.

    We ordered the volcano chicken platter which comes with rice, salad, volcano sauce and chicken (in style of chicken katsu). The volcano sauce is the bomb (I don't think I ever used this term)! The chicken is crunchy on the outside, there's plenty of rice and salad. Overall an excellent dish. I took one star off as my chicken has a lot of cartilage which I didn't enjoy.

    Menu as of 12/2024

    So delicious!!! We had various types of bowls and they were all so fresh and so good! I like that they offer a smaller option and ordered a small Build Your Own. It was so amazing I wished I'd ordered the regular size! The volcano sauce is the best!!! Staff were lovely and answered all our questions patiently. The atmosphere isn't great but the food more than makes up for it. Will be back when I'm in Eagle! *Please note the menu is different from many of the photos on here*

    Im so over this place. It was great about 10 yrs ago until one of the sisters moved back to Hawaii. Just tried to order some food at the counter for half plate . Apparently the sause is $2 now when it should come on the dish! If you order at the desk it's $19.95! Online it's $14. Terrible business. Id rather go to subway. Will never come back

    The local connect!! When you haven't been around in a while

    I had arrived into town yesterday day with my Husband into Beaver Creek. He tagged along with me…read morefor a work trip! We went to try to eat there! I have eaten at every restaurant on the square except there. We arrive at 2:37pm and the host told he could not seat us because the close at 3pm a reopen at 4:30pm and they take their last seating at 2pm for lunch! We graciously left and said we were sorry. I go back there today by myself at 2pm and was seated at the bar by the same host. Sat down at the bar the server was Kurt and pushing, which I am use to up here, did not even excuse herself or tell she was leaving. Kind of rude as a server. As I was finishing up I notice people coming 2:37pm, 2:45pm and 2:50pm and the same host that refused to serve us sat every one of them at a table. This was my first time eating this restaurant and after our experience the day before. It is not a good look. I do not think will eat there again. Derrick Poe

    To begin with, I would say the food here was definitely above average. Most of the dishes we had…read morewere tasty. Their signature spicy tuna on crispy rice though was below average. Extremely small pieces. Six for $30. Nuts. Almost tasteless. And that is the problem with this place. The prices are even beyond ski resort crazy We got a spicy salmon roll with ikura for $42. Eight small pieces. And these spicy fish items, of course, use all the odds and ends of the fish. They are the byproduct of Nigiri. As someone who eats in New York and San Francisco all the time and even in Park City and Vail, I was really shocked by these crazy prices.

    After my 1st day snowboarding, due to our lack of snow this winter, Vail had the best forecast, and…read moreI happily rode 7 runs in 2-hours, and was then starving, after also skipping lunch. Since I'd parked at Lions Head, before I returned to Denver, I considered the Vail Chophouse, as their menu looked delicious, however when I went inside, the live music was so loud - even with my noise-canceling headphones still in- that I still couldn't hear, and knew I'd blow out my ear drums. Enter: Montauk Seafood Grill, the perfect antidote, with an equally appealing menu, and a much more serene ambiance. :-) Given I was famished, I asked my wonderful server, Brenn, for recommendations, and she was - hands down - one of the best servers I've had, in a long time. She was friendly, attentive, honest, and an all around delight. I started by asking her suggestion, as to if I should order the "Blood Moon" or "Happy Coconut" mocktail, and she recommended the Blood Moon, which was delicious! I love Blood Orange, and it had the perfect combination of mint, to be both sweet & sour. I needed a mocktail, given I was driving back to Denver, after dinner. She then brought me delicious Rosemary Sourdough and Citrus Butter, as a starter, which was fantastic, especially given I needed all the carbs, from skipping lunch, riding so much, and from fasting the night before, for a prior medical appointment, that morning, in Denver, hence my late start, snowboarding. Then I ordered - and loved - the Point Reyes Blue Cheese Crusted Filet Mignon, medium rare, with the most delicious asparagus I've ever had, and I was grateful that they could make my truffle potatoes, whipped, instead of hash brown style. I ended my delicious dinner with a cappuccino, for the drive home. Perfection!

    Montauk is a staple here in Vail. It's fine dining with fresh seafood! Our recent visit was nice,…read morenot amazing but nice. When we arrived, staff was nice and they let us pick our table. The original table they had for us wasn't great and they were more than happy for us to move. Now the bad part.. I think by moving tables we got a waiter that was too busy to attend to us. Now this is a fancy restaurant so we expect perfect service. It was fine but slow in my opinion. Now for the food, it was pretty tasty as usual. I had a delicious light salad and then had their signature salmon dish. Portion size was as perfect for both items! Others at the table were not as satisfied. The scallops were delicious but there were only three served, for how expensive this place was, they should have given a few more. The rice was not great. As for the other diners in my party, they were happy with their meals.

    First of all, this restaurant is beautiful. Located above the Ice skating rink in vail village, the…read morerestaurant is large with high ceilings and very welcoming. There is a gorgeous bar, a separate omakase room, and large dining room area. I will continue to go back to Matauhisa to any of their locations simply for their miso cod. The appetizer lettuce cups are delicious and we ate them too quick to even picture but the main miso dish is one of my favorite of all time. The yuzu olive oil sauce is so good it can drink it. The nigiri was all so fresh and the powdered miso on the fish special made it so savory and delicious. The uni shooter was amazing with uni quail egg and sake. Overall the food meets the high end criteria that comes with the name and price, definitely an all time favorite place to go!

    The miso cod & spicy tuna never disappoints, those are a must! Ask about the house special rolls…read morebecause we are so glad we did, we even ended up ordering 3 more.... For apps we got the cod lettuce tacos, edamame, crispy rice with tuna, & salmon. All were amazing. We each got different cocktails but all were so good. Went with the bento box & rice pudding for dessert which were both incredible but I personally think the bento box is the way to go. Service was TOP NOTCH & the ambiance is amazing. 100000/10 must go!!!! (Spicy tuna roll has my heart, Chef Nobu knows what he's doing)
