The Deck Saigon

This place was recommended by the hotel staff, its a bit of a drive from district 7, but we managed to drive by the latest metro line and the financial district . As its early for dinner we just had coffee and Perrier. The view, the ambience are the best we have experienced so far. Perhaps evening will be the best time to be here!

The restaurant is quite big and has a panoramic riverside front, but when it gets dark, you cannot really see anything on the river and it is mostly dark forests on the opposite side. Lighting is dim in the restaurant, so overall it is a dating spot. Food has much room for improvement. Ordered the set dinner so tasted at least 8 dishes but none was memorable. Probably can cook some of these dishes better at home. More of an ambience or drinking place rather than for good food.

Usually a restaurant with a gorgeous view, the dishes there are usually lower than expected. But this restaurant is an exception. The food and drink here are supersingly tasty! Sitting at the riverside table, watching the running river, and enjoying the delicious food, what a wonderful experience!

An outdoor riverside bar that offered a laid-back atmosphere with stunning views of the water. The gentle breeze and ambient lighting set the perfect mood for an evening out. The cocktails were well-crafted, and the food menu featured light, flavorful options. It’s an ideal spot for unwinding, though it can get a bit crowded during peak hours.

This is a high-end riverside restaurant with a modern and minimalist interior that complements a casual dress code. Set against a serene riverside backdrop, the wooden deck allows diners to enjoy the rhythmic flow of the water right beneath their feet. The restaurant boasts a premium price point, but the food is rather ordinary for the cost. Service quality is moderate, offering a level of attentiveness that feels somewhat average. In Ho Chi Minh City, there are numerous restaurants at this price range offering superior service. Would I recommend it? Perhaps once or twice to impress a romantic partner or to experience the ambiance alone, as a novelty. However, it is not a place I would suggest frequenting for the food or service. 좋은 시간 갖으세요!

The Deck is already a well-known spot in the Thao Dien area, and for good reason. Its biggest draw is the riverside view paired with a spacious, airy atmosphere. If you’re someone who prioritizes ambiance, this place is worth considering. In terms of vibe, it reminds me a bit of Lan Anh Village in D2. What I like about The Deck is that it never feels overly crowded during my visits — it’s just the right amount of busy. That said, I’d recommend booking in advance, especially if you want a table close to the river. Those tables are the best, offering a cool breeze and a nice, open view. If you visit around late afternoon, the sunset makes the experience even better. They have different menus for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. For dinner, there’s both an à la carte menu and a set menu, but note that the set menu is only available if you order at least 2 portions. If just 1 person wants the set menu while others go for à la carte, it won’t be allowed — something to keep in mind when planning your meal. The pricing here is on the higher side, usually ranging from 700,000 to 1,000,000 VND per person depending on what you order. The service is a highlight — their staffs are professional, and many of them are older compared to other restaurants in the area. There’s also a mix of local and foreign staff, which adds a nice touch. The space itself is beautiful, making it perfect for photos. As for the food, the portions are decent, but the taste isn’t particularly outstanding. I’d rate it somewhere between 6 and 7 out of 10. They have a good selection of wine as well, starting from around 300,000 VND per glass. Overall, this is a solid choice if you’re after a relaxing, scenic spot with good service and a lovely atmosphere. I’d personally give it a 7/10.

We were very excited to go to The Deck, because the view is really beautiful and we always enjoy ourselves here. It is a beautiful setting to have drinks, lunch or dinner. Unfortunately we ordered the yoghurt, fruit and granola, but they informed us that they had run out of yoghurt which we were disappointed by. We ended up having juice, tea and the continental breakfast, which included fresh bread, butter and jam. We will be back, because the view and the atmosphere are very stunning.

The Deck Saigon is absolutely worth a visit. The surroundings are beautiful, the service is friendly, welcoming, and attentive, the food is exceptional, and the wine and cocktail menu is impressive. I highly recommend this fantastic venue for a romantic dinner or a relaxed moment with business associates.
