SGO3795Overall, very good! Wife had the grouper entree and I had a Boathouse cheeseburger with fries. Both dishes were excellent. The grouper was tender and cooked well and came with a side of green beans and rice. The burger was 1 1/2 lbs. and seasoned well and cooked a perfect juicy medium. It was on a nice bakery bun and came with lettuce, tomato, red onion and pickles. I ordered the hand cut shoestring fries as 'crispy" and they did not disappoint and were tastefully seasoned. There was a drink special on bottled wines and my wife was able to get a $40 bottle of Chalk Hill Chardonnay, Russian River Valley, Sonoma for $20, only $2 more than 2 glasses would have cost. I had a New Smyrna Beach Brewing Shark Bite Ale from the tap, and it was nice and ice cold and also $1 off. Check their specials online but also check the chalkboard at the entrance to the Tiki Bar. Service was excellent, prompt, efficient and friendly. A very nice afternoon with live music in the Tiki Bar. More laid back and casual than the sister location Ocean Deck. Note: GPS will tell you that you have arrived while still on the street in front of the restaurant...River Deck is BEHIND the boat lift marina. Go past the marina building and pull into the driveway and head towards the river!

Tony Anczer🤤 Food is great! ⏰ The place is usually pretty busy and it takes a while for your food to come out 🚗 The parking is only valet, which cathes you off guard if you don’t know in advance 🐬 You can usually see dolphins swimming in the water 💦 Most of the seats are outside on the big pier (which is a draw to go there), but the wind blows and gets cooled by the water, so it’s often chili in the evening - so bring a sweater 🍔 I always get the boathouse burger - it’s amazing and unlike any burger I’ve eaten 🍟 I wish they were a little more generous on the portion size of the French fries. ☎️ best to make reservations

Michelle SpanosWe went on Mother’s Day and it was yummy, we ate in bar area which made it cooler temperature wise. Pricing wasn’t bad either, the dolphins were up close to the dock as if they were showing off for all the moms. Valet parking only, we parked at Old Fort Park and walked over. Yummy and as a local we will be back. Got the Fish Tacos, Burger & Chicken Sandwich. All delish.

CA HLuved the atmosphere the most about this place, with the beautiful boats & birds drifting by! The food & service were decent, but could have a little more flare to match the view ;) We've heard the live talent before-during Christmas at the Riverfront Esplanade and he was still pretty good; but the volume could be turned down a bit, so we could enjoy more of the subtle river sounds, which we purposely sat near.

Anthony AivazisI stopped here with my buddy after fishing the jetties in the morning. We docked our boat at their dock and grabbed a quick seat at the bar. The atmosphere had that chill island feel to it and they even had some live music going on at the bar. The food was truly amazing! We ordered the Calamari as an appetizer and my buddy and I agreed it was the best either of us have ever had! Huge pieces of squid that were buttery soft and melted in your mouth! For lunch I got the Shrimp basket and he got the Shrimp Scampi. Both plates were loaded and delicious! Will be returning when we need to grab a bite when we are out boating or fishing in the area.
