    I took the day off from work to stop at a bunch of places between Saukville and Sheboygan. I left early enough to have breakfast somewhere and the good reviews for Rivers Edge led me there. I ordered a bacon, egg, and cheese omelette with a side of crispy hash browns and one pancake. I don't know if I've been more impressed by a place that I wasn't sure what to expect at. As of the point where I'm leaving this review, they had 46 other reviews for an average of 4.7 out of 5, which is really good, but most of the pictures of food were from 5+ years ago, so I had a hard time gauging if I would like it. If you like bacon, order the bacon, egg, and cheese omelette. It doesn't look like much on the outside, but this thing was absolutely loaded inside with thick cut bacon. I wasn't asked what kind of toast I wanted, so I assume they only have white toast. The two slices had nice globs of butter in between, so I didn't have to dress them up on my own. The hash browns were spot on. A little bit of flavor from the butter or oil they were cooked in and perfectly crispy like I asked for. I added a little salt and pepper on top and that's all they needed. Like the bacon in the omelette, the pancake was thick, yet managed to be fluffy and have some crispiness near the edge. Honestly, I think this is one of the best pancakes I've ever had. I put a little syrup on it, but I probably didn't need to because even without the syrup it had some sweetness to it. The prices were very reasonable and the portions well sized. There was a small group of construction workers at a corner table that looked close to my age, otherwise all of the customers in this packed restaurant had at least 15 years on me. Not a problem, but it fit in with the old school diner feel of the place. Some of the customers and the waitress were chatting it up like they knew each other, so they've definitely got regulars that stop often. I'm jealous of them; I can't wait to come back. As a note, they are cash only and don't have an ATM on site.

    Breakfast was a huge surprise, hand cut bacon, perfect eggs, and crunchy hash browns! You're missing out if you're in the area and haven't had breakfast here. We only had breakfast but would definitely try the rest of the menu considering how much effort was put into breakfast.

    Basted eggs, hashbrowns and ham.

    This is a great diner! Friendly, fast service with great food. I've never had a disappointing meal. Cash only!

    This is how diners should be run. Everyone's family here. Quality ingredients, fair prices and passion. Bacon is life changing. So is the oatmeal just in a different way.

    Excellent food and home atmosphere,  a restaurant with a family feel and old time diner experience.

    Excellent food and service, well worth the the visit with the hometown dinner experience. Good food and good company.

    Simple food prepared expertly by very nice people. Rivers Edge is in the middle of nowhere and was recommended by one of my husband's co-workers. It's a breakfast and lunch only kind of diner, with a big overall counter and maybe 12-15 tables. So it's small but they move tables quickly so any wait shouldn't be too long. Most of the people here are regulars but anyone will be made welcome. The menu has all the expected breakfast classics - pancakes, eggs, waffles along with hearty options like a smoked pork chop. Prices are CHEAP - most (very large) breakfasts are around $6. That's good because it's CASH ONLY. The Mister went for the smoked pork chop and I had biscuits and gravy and added a few eggs (cooked perfectly by the way). Not the best biscuits and gravy I've had but plenty good and even better for the price. Friendly staff, smoked pork chops, perfect eggs, total Wisco atmosphere - what's not to like?

    We were visiting the area and ate there for Saturday morning breakfast based on reviews. The breakfast was delicious and lots of food. The servers were wearing mask but the were close together. They offer take out too so based on your comfort level you can choose what is best for you and loved ones. The waitress was friendly and refilled our drinks fast. Thank you for service!

    It's from nearby Bernie's Fine Meats in Port Washington and it's probably the best bacon I've ever had.

Not…read morebeing a Cedarburg resident it's an extra 20 minutes out of the way if I'm stopping after work or a 40 minute round trip if I'm just heading from home, but I'm happy to make the trip. Their menu consists largely of Mac & Cheese, wraps, paninis and frozen custard. Being a Wisconsinite it really resonates with me. I get the classic "original" mac and cheese every time. It's always consistently good and it's still warm after my 20 minute drive home. They use a less common noodle that is quite large and the portion is generous too. The other menu item I'm always to is the shake of the week. They always have a different one and they're always good. Oh, and I have to mention their salads. Not for me, but my mother likes them as much a salad she gets anywhere else. Another thing I appreciate is the fact they have an app. An app for a local place isn't common in my experience. This makes it easy to order in advance so you can skip the line, skip the phone call and better still earn rewards. Finally, I have to commend a few of the guys who work here. Two gentlemen in particular who both are always pleasant and personable, which alone is commendable, but they've also both been there a few years. They both seem to be managers, but I'm not sure, though I wanted to recognize them. Both are older than the general staff and both are there various weekdays.

    This is a go-to for kids in the area. I'm not saying it's not for adults but everytime I'm in…read morethere it's 90% high school kids. Their mac and cheese options are fantastic. I've asked about the mac recipe, and was told it was completely secret and only the the owner knows the recipe. I'd give it 5 stars, but it is a bit on the pricey side.

    From visit on: 2/8/26 - late review!…read more My date and I were so excited to try the Eggs Benedict flight. We had reservations for Sunday at 11. Our server was very kind, great atmosphere in the place as well. We ordered a side of the potatoes and they came out nice and hot. Unfortunately, both of our Eggs Benedict flights were lukewarm at best, from the first bite. My date made a comment to the server and she offered to reheat. We initially declined but within a minute changed our mind. Our server was understanding and quickly brought over an extra flight (which I saw her bring from the heating lamps). This plate was also the same temperature. I really don't like to leave neutral or negative reviews, but it's unfortunate to spend money and have a less than par experience on the food we were looking forward to eating. We did take a small box to go and the crab cake heated up later was very delicious, but just not the same as if we had been given a hot meal to start at the restaurant. I've eaten here for dinner and was super impressed with the serving size, but I don't think I'd come back for brunch.

    Date of delivery: December 5, 2025…read more I have had a bit of a struggle with Panera's online ordering and delivery at other locations and unfortunately this new outlet on Mayfair road is suffering from the same issues. The order was for during a working meeting and I left clear instructions to deliver to the third floor, where my office is, and if the door was locked, to leave it on the table outside of the door. Not only was it not delivered to the third floor, but it was left on the ground. Food should never be on the ground, really, even if it is in a bag. And with this being an office building with many other businesses, leaving this at the main entrance, unattended under the Christmas tree, it had many opportunities to be taken, stepped on, or become cold as this was left right outside the main entrance to the building. At lunchtime. Food was good, though they gave us four spoons for one mac & cheese and one broccoli cheddar. The bag even said "2 spoons" on it... On the positive side, Barb from the restaurant responded to my review right away and offered to make it right.

One downside is you have to stop and check in at the kiosk before driving up. Bummer that there isn't a pickup only lane like the Capitol location. The prices have gone up while the portions remain the same (or have gotten smaller) but I appreciate the consistency here. The greek dressing is always delicious as is the tomato soup. Miss that they stopped offering the value duets which were a little cheaper than the pick 2. Staff are friendly though. Easy location to get in and out of, too!
