    Pina colada smoothie

    Great service at times. Food is good for convenience when staying at the Westin villas. Also good for poolside if you want to purchase food basic items like chicken strips,fries,burger,and salads.

    This Greek Salad is the first salad to make me feel full! Delicious!
    Brad G.

    This restaurant is part of The Westin Villas. I'd imagine you could make your way in here even if you aren't staying at the hotel/resort. It sits on the backside of the lobby near the pools. It would be a great place to people watch or to watch a game with a group on their TVs. I went here twice during vacation and the thing that prompts this review surprised me! The menu item to order? GREEK SALAD! That's tough for me because salads are rarely good when you go out somewhere. Opting to make my perfect salad at home is always preferable. That wasn't the case with this Greek Salad. It was huge and it's the first salad EVER to fill me up! I never thought I could be so full from eating a salad! This salad is on the pricier side at $11 but it's well worth it. Not only is it huge but you get a fair amount of everything included in the salad. There are plenty of tomatoes, lettuce, olives, feta, onion and lemon oregano dressing... oh! Did I mention the lemon oregano dressing?! Nom nom nom. I still can't believe how satisfied I was with this salad and it has been nearly three months since I had it! If you check Yelp while here and see this place, do yourself a favor and order the Greek Salad even if you get it to go. Additional notes: -- Short rib sandwich - On the 2nd visit, I ordered the short rib sandwich. It was good but it could've been way better. It made me wish I would've ordered the Greek Salad again. -- Truffle fries - If you just need a snack, order these.

    This is the restaurant on the villas side of the Westin Kierland in Scottsdale. And it is pretty alright. Prices are a little high, but that is to be expected as a hotel/resort markup. I have got to say the service is great. We had a couple different servers each time we visited and they were friendly and patient. And on our last evening, they were kind enough to turn on a heater for us for a little bit. The first time we went, we got the truffle fries to share. YOU WANT the truffle fries. If there are more than two of you, you might want to get TWO orders of the truffle fries. For real. They are so dang good! I also got the Greek salad. It was huge! Definitely worth it's price. And super tasty. Lots of tomatoes and olives for topping. The salads have an option of adding a protein, and I wanted the fried calamari to put on top of it. I think they might have messed up and given me the full appetizer of the calamari...it was SO MUCH. I can't remember what I had on my last visit (except for more truffle fries) but I am sure it was tasty. All of the drinks we tried were delicious! They have a pretty big selection of cocktails, and we were not disappointed by any of them. It is more on the casual end of things, and they will probably be showing whatever sporting event is currently happening at the time on the big screen. I think you will enjoy yourself here, and if you are staying at the Villas, will probably find your way back here more than once just like we did!

I ordered the salmon poke bowl with brown rice. What I received was the salmon poke bowl with quinoa. The iced tea was $5. A side of Brussels sprouts was $8 and very small. Our table had poured and downed almost all of the water in the carafe before I noticed a small black beetle submerged at the bottom of it. When I told the server, he replaced it, but didn't give everyone new glasses. Only me. My friend ordered a wrap and asked for it to be gluten free. The person who brought the food told her that it was gluten free. The server, who had taken the order, came back and told her it wasn't gluten free. He told her he'd replace it and take it off of her bill. It took her forever to get the new wrap. And when she got the bill, he hadn't removed it from her tab.

If you plan on going in the evening, consider making a reservation if you want to play safe, especially on a Friday or weekend night. Overall, would try again.

    Friends had been to the Montauk before and invited us to meet them for a weekend lunch…read more I made a reservation, so we could be sure to sit inside, since it is already well over 100 degrees outside. The six of us were seated across from the bar, and it was HOT . I started sweating and needed to use the menus as a fan and drink water to try and cool off. The restaurant had already been open for almost 2 hours, so I am not sure why it was so hot inside (others in our party were hot too, so I wasn't just me). Positives are the restaurant's beach decor and the hamburgers. Several people in our party ordered burgers, and they were cooked to perfection and the fries were really good! Negatives are very few seafood menu options and the fish tacos were terrible. They were drowning in a mayonnaise based slaw. The corn tortillas were really fresh and tasty, but when I bit into my taco I could mostly only taste mayonnaise and the pickled onions. Our friends even made an unsolicited comment that my tacos did not look good. Luckily, I selected fries as my side, because they were the best thing on my plate. With a name like Montauk, and the beach decor, I expected more fresh seafood options on the menu. More than half the menu was not seafood (Mediterranean platter, hamburgers, chicken sandwiches, brussels sprouts, salads, etc.). Unfortunately, Montauk does not live up to the hype.

We both got skinny margaritas, and they were really good. You could actually taste the tequila and fresh ingredients rather than an overly sweet margarita mix. We both ordered the Breakfast Burrito for $14, which comes with housemade chicken sausage, roasted potatoes, scrambled eggs, green chilis, mozzarella, cheddar, and fire-roasted tomato salsa. We also got ketchup on the side. The burrito was delicious and very reasonably priced. The staff explained that they focus on fresh, locally sourced, high-quality ingredients, and you could definitely taste the quality. The ambiance was great too. I loved the wood details throughout the restaurant, everything looked clean and well maintained, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. My only disappointment is that there isn't an Amelia's closer to me because I would absolutely visit often. I hope they're able to maintain the quality and local feel because the food, ingredients, service, and atmosphere really stood out. Definitely looking forward to coming back!

The place was buzzing with loud electronic music and tons of people dining -- I think because the ceiling is so high the noise is amplified. Because it was so busy it took a while for the server to come over but he did with waters which was nice but then the menus are all on QR codes -- which is annoying because it is hard to look at everything and because the menu is very confusing it would have been nice to see everything on paper. The menu is confusing because the selections are very odd -- I thought it was a mexican-asian/sushi fusion restaurant -- which I guess it is but it was still really hard to create the best food experience when I couldn't see everything available. My friend was hungry so she immediately put in an order for calamari and I was being called to order the blood orange margarita slushie. When the margarita came it was like nothing I have ever seen before. It looked more like a milkshake or like a creamsicle. I dove in thinking it would be too sweet but it was actually quite delicious and I sucked it back in a second! Also I put in an order for the edamame which sounded really good in the description -- "woodfired" and spicy miso butter -- but when they came they were really spicy and the woodfired element was making me cough, strangely enough -- I couldn't finish them! Finally after waiting forever we got the drinks and apps. It then took another 15 minutes to order our food. Again it was busy and my friend and I were catching up so it wasn't a big deal. We wanted a fairly light dinner so we just ordered one roll -- the Fuego, which had yellowtail and a whitefish, chili, cilantro and cucumber plus a pico de gallo on top -- it was very flavorful -- although a bit spicy for those who are spice wimps like me. Overall, thought it was a good meal but wasn't blown away.

I have tried the Pornstar Martini, Illicit Affair, and Smell the F*@king Roses (my favorite). The appetizers we tried were the tuna tartare and the hibachi crudo. Superb! The entrees are delicious although the lamb chops and the short rib bolognese were a bit salty. The bolognese is definitely different than the typical. The branzino and filet mignon were tasty. Sides including the whipped potatoes and Mac and cheese were also good. We also enjoyed the coconut cream pie with a birthday candle for dessert, but I will say for the price we paid for the entire meal, the dessert should have been comped for the birthday. They also charge an extra service fee that can be removed if requested. No reason to charge additional fees on top of everything you pay already.
