The River Deck menu offers everything from fresh seafood to juicy burgers and steaks. There’s something for everyone. Even though I’m a seafood lover, the oak-grilled burgers had such a great reputation that I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to try them. I ordered the Basic Burger ($13.99), and it was absolutely delicious.
The burger was cooked to perfection, with a generous layer of melted cheese, crisp lettuce, juicy tomato, and tangy onion. The soft, fresh bun provided the perfect foundation for this flavor-packed masterpiece. Paired with a side of crispy chips, it was a truly satisfying lunch. This burger easily ranks among the best I’ve had in Sebastian.”
My wife ordered the Oak Grilled Chicken Sandwich ($13.99). The flavorful chicken, paired with a soft, fresh bun, made for a delicious and satisfying lunch. She enjoyed it with a side of coleslaw. Another fantastic choice from the their menu.
While The River Deck doesn’t have air conditioning (except in the restrooms), it’s a perfect spot to enjoy the outdoor atmosphere. On hot days, a refreshing breeze from the Intracoastal Waterway can help keep things cool. As the weather cools down in the fall, this venue becomes even more enjoyable.
Our return to The River Deck last Saturday confirmed my belief that it’s going to be a local favorite. The restaurant and bar were full of people enjoying the food, drinks, and live entertainment. It’s a great place to go for a night out in Sebastian.
