This is one of those places that unless a friend told you about it, you might not know that it existed. Open seasonally starting in April and located next to Mariner's Landing on the Ohio River in Sayler Park, Cabana on the River is a great place to wile away an afternoon sipping beers and just  watching the water drift by.

It's a Queen City version of one of those beachside Caribbean bars, and you can get some pretty decent grub here, too. But don't expect white tablecloths or even dishware for that matter, this is a paper napkin and plastic plate kinda joint. Sandwiches and salads are the primary fare, and they serve one of the largest burgers in town (it far exceeds the size of a standard bun). It's better than average food, but the ambiance is what gives boosts it from three stars to four.

If you are on the west side of town and looking for a great outdoor bar and grill, Cabana on the River just might be it. Especially since the only place you can sit here is outside.
