    Dad's Breakfast (1 of the plates). Biscuits and gravy with sunny, happy eggs on top.
    Betheny M.

    I drive 30 minutes to come to Dixies. The best diner/breakfast in Pierce County. Sunday's are hectic but the service is still fantastic, came on a Saturday and it was even better. I have worked for a few James Beard restaurants and whoever makes their Hollandaise sauce? One of the best I have had and Hollandaise sauce is a craft, like surfing...you either do it great or you suck. I love this place and worth the drive. My favorites 1. Spinach Pie eggs Benedict (extra hollandaise) 2. Spinach Pie Hobo I always order a short stack of buttermilk pancakes for the table.

    Orange juice in a frozen glass- the best oj I've ever had

    Food and service were great. Comfortable and quick. Waitress was very attentive and friendly

    Malibu Chicken & Zucchini Fries
    Olimpia A.

    Malibu Chicken was delicious make sure to ask for the mayo mustard dipping sauce which compliments this dish. BEST EVER zucchini fries

    Chicken Fried Steak with Dad's potatoes & Hobo Hash

    Great food. Great Service. Been coming to Dixie's for the last 15 years. My favorite is the Dad's potatoes. Today, the chicken fried steak was delicious and tender.

    Breakfast

    I will come right out and say, I generally don't stop at diners unless I've heard something great about their food. Anecdotally my experience with them is that they under season their food and are generally uninspiring. Taking my mother to breakfast while in Sumner this was the place to go on a 100-degree morning so she didn't have to wait outside in the heat. I ordered a breakfast of eggs, bacon hash browns and toast. I also got a of sausage gravy to help make the potatoes edible if they turned out flavorless. They must have been short staffed because the order came in pieces. By the time the gravy and toast made it the food was moving from warm to cool. The food itself. The only thing that made anything interesting was the sausage gravy. It wasn't just a country gravy with sausage, it had a hint of thyme which added a great flavor. However, the thyme got stuck in my teeth because they were like little hard slivers of herb. It might have been the bottom of the spice jar or put in late so it didn't have a chance to soften. While I generally do not like to give two stars, I really couldn't find anything to raise it 3 stars and don't plan on going back!

    Oh and they have apple butter.

    Good food, good people and good music. Our second trip for breakfast and it was perfect. Try dad's potatoes, perfectly cooked with very little salt. If you like bacon order that too. I wanted the cinnamon roll but life has me avoiding that sort of goodness. I loved the breakfast! No pictures because you need to experience it yourself.

    It's my first time in but my second time eating their food. So far, food is decent, good portions, good flavors. It sucked sitting facing the windows because the sun burned my damn retinas. The wait staff was nice but real snippy. We came in like 1.5 hours before closing so maybe that was a part of it, idk.

    Mel liked the pancakes

The truffle fries were excellent. It was crispy, well seasoned, and not greasy. They had a nice truffle flavor without being overpowering. Unfortunately, the French dip was disappointing. The bread was toasted to the point that it was hard, making the sandwich difficult to enjoy. More importantly, the beef was very sparse for a $28 sandwich. It was advertised as chuck eye, but the meat I received was very lean and dry, lacking the tenderness and richness I'd expect from that cut. Based on this meal, I wouldn't order the French dip again. The fries were the highlight of the plate, but the sandwich wasn't worth the price.

Several staff members even came out to our table to say hello and make him feel welcome. The food was fantastic. I ordered the HOBO, and it was absolutely delicious. My spouse had the pastrami sandwich, which was just as impressive. We sat outside - which is really nice - but the inside is super clean and very welcoming. The combination of exceptional food, genuine hospitality, and how they treated our dog made this an experience we'll remember. We'll definitely be making River's Edge Cafe a regular stop whenever we're in the area.

The serving size was massive and could easily be 2 meals (I had lots of leftovers). The porkchop had a great texture and wasn't too dry. Grits were creamy, and the cornbread itself was very delicious. Service was friendly and attentive, as we had servers coming by multiple times to top off coffee.
