Without seeing the file, I can only guess.
Importing the file is relatively easy, using either load, dlmread, textscan, or a number of other functions. It depends how it is formatted.
Plotting a surface without knowing if the x- and y-values are gridded, that is repeat in a specific pattern, leaves too much to the imagination to provide any specific solution. You may need to use griddedInterpolant or scatteredInterpolant to create the surface.
I leave you to fill in the necessary details.
Have fun!
