    The portions are very generous, with enough to take home for another meal. The pot roast was so tender, it could be cut with a fork. Chicken parm is crispy on the outside yet juicy and tender on the inside. Zucchini is among the best we’ve ever had. The hostess and wait staff were very professional and well groomed. This was our third time there, and we will be back. Kudos to the chef and owners. This is a real gem on the Youghiogheny river in Connellsville.

    We wanted to try out the new place in town so we went to Rivers Edge. Didn't disappoint. Food was good but a little pricey. Service was great. Atmosphere was a little noisy but OK. Will definitely go back.

    River's Edge is a hidden gem on the bank of the Youghiogheny River. Food is always amazing and the atmosphere is unlike anything you can find within 30+ miles. Crab cakes were a special for lent and they were all lump crab meat with no filler. Pot roast is a favorite of our family and it is the only place you can order halibut unless you go to Pittsburgh. Overall experience is A+.

    I brought my sister for her birthday. We had a fabulous time. The crab bisque is not only the best bisque we had ever had, it was the best soup we had ever eaten. The bacon salad dressing is to die for. Our crab cakes, although very good, were barely warm. The carrot cake can easily feed 4 people and was delicious. The staff is always friendly and helpful, especially Chris. We highly recommend and will be back.
