Westlake Fish House - MONTAUK

We stayed twice on Saturday at Labor Day weekend for lunch and small bites and drinks in the evening. Food during lunch was not great and came with ugly price tag. Real disappointment was in the evening. The staff was extremely rude and had bad attitude especially waiter workable on the back. I don't want to go back.

I have always loved to come here, but my recent experience was very annoying. The bartender was very rude. My sister felt very uncomfortable and we had to leave the restaurant. Very disappointed and annoyed to have this experience here.

Some of the absolutely best sushi I've ever had. The prices are a bit on the steep side, but it is Montauk! Our bartender Liana was wonderful.

We leave our boat in montauk And we have a fur child, the owner James was so amazing for our baby girls (It was her 12 bday) English bulldog! The food and drinks were perfect? such a great atmosphere! We'll be back next summer!

Westlake is even better than its interesting menu might let on. Every dish was a delight. I don't know what they put in the broth their mussels are steamed in, but I could have easily drank it down like water it was EXCELLENT. The grilled shishedo peppers were a standout appetizer, and the sushi was so fresh that if you threw it back in the water it might have swam away. The linguine with clam sauce was just right, and even would have satisfied my Italian dad, and the steamers (a family favorite) were super fresh, and bonus points very well cleaned. Major kudos to the kitchen staff here: there was not a single speck of sand in a HUGE serving, which is seldom the case in even the fanciest of restaurants. I wish I could remember more of what I sampled, because the four of us shared everything, and not one flavor missed the mark; each dish I tried was better than the last. The atmosphere and staff were very welcoming, and the surroundings are quite comfortable, as well as very clean and well kept. Despite our arriving a bit close to the end of service on an end of season Saturday, we were treated with care and attention. Not once were we made to feel rushed or hurried. Though I'm sure the staff wanted to get home, we were treated in a friendly, relaxed, and attentive manner. My family has eaten in almost every restaurant that has opened up shop in Montauk for about 40 years now, and many greats amd not so greats have come and gone, but after our first meal there, Westlake is now at the top of our list. We left satisfied, happy with our experience, and determined to come back soon and often!
