First time visit to this café. Plenty of menu options for those that enjoy pancakes or a savory breakfast. I enjoyed the steak Skillet which tasted delicious. The riverside eggs Benedict was a savory mix of pork and avocado with eggs. The lattes we had were the S'more and mazapan which tasted amazing. Thanks to Xochitl for a wonderful service. Avg. cost per person would sit around $25.

My family and I were in Gurnee for a mini vacay and went to dine in for breakfast. I gotta say the food was great and our server Maria was awesome. My kids loved her. We’re definitely coming back.

The service was amazing and the Eggs Benedict with barbacoa is outstanding. The person that was with got steak and eggs, on the way just even wanted to make sure the steak was cooked to her liking and offered to take a back of it wasn't. Excellent customer service and the menu that so many things that I wanted to try.

My husband and I were out for breakfast and came across Riverside Café. We had the steak and egg special and it was spectacular! Not your average breakfast place steak it was amazing and cooked perfectly. I’m a little picky and our waitress, Xochitl went over and above to make sure that it was perfect. Her smile and special service was exactly what we needed to start a very special day. The food was delicious and the atmosphere with the coffee/latte bar in the back was very nice. They also have outside seating. Which to me is always a special treat.

Stopped in for a lunch meeting and was impressed. Service was friendly, food came out fast and hot. The omelet was fresh and cooked perfectly, and the sweet potato fries were an easy 10/10. A little on the pricey side, but worth it. I’ll definitely be back!

I was recently in the area for my son's Navy bootcamp graduation with my inlaws. We did a Google search and found this cafe for breakfast. On that Thursday morning it wasn't busy at all so we were seated quickly. The food was awesome, the Blueberry Wild Child tea was fantastic (had to search it out & get some for home!) and the service was great.
If you're in the area, definitely hit this place up for breakfast, you won't regret it!

Came here with the family on the first day of our staycation and we enjoyed it very much! If you're avoiding seed oils, they fry in tallow here! That's initially why we came. I ordered the biscuits and gravy with country fried chicken. It was excellent, but a little lacking in gravy. Sofia, our server was quite attentive throughout and brought some more right away. Thanks for making our first day a good one! I'm sure we'll be back sometime.
One of the only places I go to consistently where not one of the times ever I’ve had a problem such as my order being wrong. I come here at least twice a month and every time I’ve come the food and service is amazing. Every time I come it’s in an out in under 45 minutes. Even on Sunday mornings when they’re slammed. I almost always get the mexicana skillet but today got the pumpkin cheesecake French toast and it was amazing.
