Blasting reggae music at 10 am when the beach is otherwise quiet is not going to make people want to eat your food.

Great beach view and excellent service. We ordered the fish and chips and the fish taco, and it was…read morethe most delicious I've had in years. Wonderful seasoning--I highly recommend it.

Overpriced food and drinks at a place right next to the beach? Not shocking at all, I knew what I…read morewas getting into. And honestly I was really impressed with the back deck area, a pretty good amount of seating and a straight view of the ocean. The food actually was pretty good. But the service, like the other reviews I am now reading agree with, is this place's downfall. You seat yourself, then it takes 30 minutes for someone to comes over. The table wasn't wiped down between groups so we had a visually dirty table. Need menus? Okay 20 minutes after you sit down and then they will disappear for another 20 getting those for you. Then hand them too you and disappear for another 20 and at this point you have decided not only your drink but your entire meal because you have been sitting with the meal for so long. A cocktail, lemonade and water? You guessed it, another 20 minutes. It was like this the entire time. After we got our drinks, it genuinely took 40 minutes for the waitress to come back over to get our food order. It was insane?!! She was nice when she was there but as soon as we finished talking she ran off again before we could ask for refills or where the bathroom was. We were f u l l y ignored and ended up having to spend over two hours for what was supposed to be a quick beach day early dinner. We were starving by the time we got our food and were all pretty hangry. Tiny drinks, my friend's $14 drink was mostly ice and a massive orange slice, like two sips of drink in there. Got elote dip, which was actually pretty good but it came in a cup??? Like a drink cup? (Pictured here) so you couldn't dip your chip in??!? Like just a badly set up business. And had a small handful of chips, not enough for even our small party (3). They need a full overhaul of their system. I saw plenty of servers and the restaurant was a little less than 3/4 full, can't imagine how they operate when at capacity. In summary, not going to go back because nothing was there was worth my money. As a local, just eat at home or bring a picnic if you are visiting. (The only thing on the boardwalk worth the money is trying the "beach pizza") Upset about my $120 down the drain.

The wife and I were looking for waterfront dining. This place has great outdoor eating vibes. We…read moresat on the lower deck while the live music played upstairs. The music was good, and not too loud or overbearing. Not so much a place for sunset viewing as you face the river with Newburyport on the other side and the view facing West is actually the bridge. Food and service were both great. I agree with one of the other reviews - the blue cheese burger was one of the best I have ever had and the ahi nachos appetizer was also very tasty. The wait for the table was reasonable and we grabbed a drink at the bar and were called faster than anticipated. Sat on the rail - looking at the river. Server was pretty busy, but did a fine job, and was friendly even though we could tell she was super busy. Very enjoyable date night.

My Son asked me to find a Restaurant that we could all go to on Father's Day, so after an extensive…read moresearch online I came up with 3 nearby Restaurants that I've never been to! The River House in Portsmouth, Tuna Striker Pub on Seabrook Harbor and lastly The Deck in Salisbury overlooking the Merrimack River and Newburyport Harbor! He chose The Deck in Salisbury and I agreed bc it's in a great location with beautiful views! When we got there their Parking Lot was full but they had additional parking across Rt.1 where they offered a golf cart shuttle to the Restaurant! We decided to just walk over! The Deck was very busy probably bc it's Father's Day! We were seated at a high top table, enjoyed the views and were amazed at the number of staff they had maneuvering around the tables, with precision I might add, delivering food to the tables! It was quite an impressive sight! Our Waitress was very pleasant, welcomed us and was attentive throughout our visit! There were six of us and we chose the following menu items...My Daughter in Law chose the "Caprese Salad w/grilled Chicken, the Grand Children had a Cheeseburger and the oldest a Lobster Roll, his favorite, which by the way can be ordered warm w/Butter MKT Price which our Waitress said was $48, it seems to be the going price right now in better restaurants! It was a decent portion of Lobster meat! My significant other and Son both opted for the fried Scallops , hers with Onion Rings, which were fried in a light batter and tasty, his with Fries! The Scallops were excellent, fried in a light batter and delicious! I chose the "Deck Blues Burger" which was one of the best Burgers I've ever had and grilled medium to perfection! The food all around was excellent and when you add the beautiful views it made for one of the most memorable Father's Day's! We highly recommend "The Deck" and it will become one of our favorite dining spots in the future! Food...5 Vibe....5 Staff...5
