The food and service was great! We had the crab dip, fish tacos, and Italian panini. The view was lovely but I don't think we would return. The music was so loud you couldn't have a conversation, even when the person was right next to you.

Went for the crab leg special and loved everything! Blackened shrimp tacos were delicious. Be sure to try the crab dip and the crushes as well (watermelon and pineapple were our favorites).
Extremely chill, lively, and lots of fresh air. Wear comfy shoes because you'll be surrounded by many and standing/sitting on a deck. Clean and inviting. Just a breathe of fresh air. Literally!!

Loved it here, but the food wasn't the best. I had fish and chips, and the fried fishes were rather thin, as I'm used to having very thick ones at Harpoon Larry's. Guess I'm still going there to try other things.

Warm even in the winter The Back Deck has great customer service, delicious food, and a dog friendly atmosphere. Drinks were delicious, the custard in the key lime pie was amazingly thick, and the tacos are popular for a reason.

The Back Deck located in Shore Drive is absolutely amazing ❣️The Back Deck is one of local’s most popular places. Enjoy your friends, family, and amazing meals dockside. The fish tacos ? ? and steamed shrimp Po’Boy ? are the best ❣️The Back Deck’s staff delivers outstanding meals and customer service. The atmosphere is amazing here on the Lynnhaven River. Enjoying our meals watching the boaters, jet skiers, and beautiful sunset. The menu is loaded with many options to please all. The Back Deck is always extremely busy but seems to deliver outstanding food and service. This is a Shore Drive hidden gem.?
The service is great- they rotate their servers so everyone helps you out a little bit here and there but they're all very nice and attentive. The food menu is considered small but everything tastes very fresh and delicious.
Very friendly atmosphere with a great view of the inlet. Pet friendly too.

This was one of the most disappointing establishments I've been to. Service was not good. Food was definitely not justified for the price. The "steamed shrimp 'po boy sandwich" was $17 and I felt completely ripped off. And not to mention, food was served on paper plates. Unfortunately, I will not return to this place.
