River Edge Restaurant

"A close-up of the extra-thick bacon. The menu here even brags in big letters, "We are proud to serve Bernie's Bacon, Port Washington, WI.""
Cliff Strutz






"This is the classic small town restaurant where everyone knows everyone else. The U-shaped counter is the focus of the dining room."
Cliff Strutz



"Thick bacon and lace-edge potato pancakes, with apple sauce on the side: a winning combination."
Michael Stern



"Bratwurst is the meat of choice in this part of Wisconsin -- for breakfast as well as lunch. here, it is butterflied and fried, served with over-easy eggs and toast."
Michael Stern



"Frankly, we're stumped by the name of this restaurant. Here's the sign, but the business card says "Riversedge" (one word), and we've seen it written as "River's Edge." Whatever it's called, it is an old-fashioned truck stop cafe, just a hop off I-43."
