Brought the wife in to celebrate a special day for us. We called ahead to be sure they could accommodate us and her service dog. They let us sit inside even though they were seating everyone else outside. It was a beautiful day but we wanted to be inside and they accommodated us.
Our server was Lynn and she took great care of us. At no point did we feel the service suffered as a result of us being the only ones sitting inside.

The River Deck restaurant offers a variety of dining options, including filet, scallops, salmon, and NY strip steak. The meats are praised for being perfectly cooked, and the sauces and sides are highly recommended. The restaurant is known for its old fashioned and cosmopolitan drinks, as well as its ice-cold beer.
The outside dining area provides a relaxing atmosphere, overlooking the river, making it a great place to enjoy a meal while taking in the views. However, the inside seating is described as less charming compared to the outside.
The service at the River Deck is highly praised, with servers being knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. The crab cake appetizer and salmon sandwich entrée are specifically mentioned as standout dishes, with the salmon being perfectly cooked and the crab cake being fresh and delicious. The filet mignon is also highly recommended for its flavor and tenderness.
The restaurant's prices are noted to be on the higher end, with some menu items being described as expensive for the portion size. Despite this, the overall dining experience is highly recommended, with one reviewer stating that they would drive from Minnesota to Hayward just to eat at the River Deck again.
