"Arriving at the Deck Saigon, a restaurant in District Two on the Saigon River, is often one of the highlights of an evening here—many customers come by boat directly from District One to dock right at the restaurant’s waterside steps. Drawing a mix of expats, locals, and tourists, this restaurant is partially set on a riverfront deck (hence the name); it's been open since 2008. The menu is pan-Asian, while the breezy interiors include solid wooden chairs, creative lighting, and plenty of fresh flowers. Vietnamese ingredients are used in dishes like Phu Quoc prawn rolls and regional soft-shell-crab tempura—but foods sourced globally include French foie gras and New Zealand lamb."
Tucked away from the busy streets of Saigon is this hidden gem. This is the ideal place to unwind with stunning views, relaxing music and attentive staff.
The food is classy and rustic and should be enjoyed slowly with your favourite drink while watching boats sail by.
The atmosphere transports you to a place of zen and before you know it, hours have passed by and you've just solved world hunger with your family and friends.

- I’ve heard abt The Deck Saigon so many years. Yes, Its a great place for occasions such as dates, family, friends or business. The riverside is romantic and very cozy, the sunset on the river . The food is delicious, the cocktails are the highlight with Negroni.
- However, the staff and the service does not really catch-up w the guests except the hostess at the restaurant

Perfect setting for a sunset dinner - top bad the sun was behind clouds mostly. Very peaceful and chilled - definitely a well needed break from the busy streets of District 1. Can't fault the service at all. Food was beautifully presented and quality flavours. There was an area for an event but you wouldn't even have noticed it. Asked for a riverside table!

We came here for a couple of drinks and to enjoy the incredible view.
It’s a very nice spot to sit back and relax while taking in the river.
The atmosphere was peaceful and perfect for unwinding.
The staff were very nice and professional, making the experience even better.
Definitely a great place to visit if you want good drinks with a stunning view.

The Deck Thao Dien is one of those spots that gets everything right. The cocktails are a standout, with a creative menu and perfectly balanced flavors. Definitely one of my favorite places for drinks in the city.
What truly makes it special is the vibe. I love the chill house music playing in the background, and the occasional live DJ just adds to the experience. There’s plenty of seating throughout the space, but nothing beats sitting by the river and soaking in the view. A perfect place to unwind and enjoy a quality meal or evening out.

It's a nice place with a nice walk in, good vibe and appealing interior design. The food was so-so for the price. We only tried the foie gras spring rolls and the tiger prawn pasta, which were both fine but didn't get to impress. There was nothing bad about the food, I could tell it was well prepared. But it's on the pricer side and IF the food had a bit more of a wow effect, it would really complete the experience.

We have been living in Thao Dien for 15y now and the deck is still a superb venue of calm, nice food and great service thanks to team member like Bao who made our brunch great. Delicious ceviches, salmon gravlax and sardines for a seafood light sunday brunch right on the Saigon river. What else ?

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!
