River's Edge Bar & Grill Announces Opening in Batavia

River’s Edge Bar & Grill, a classic American bar and grill, announces its opening in Batavia’s historic district at 12 North River Street, Batavia, IL. With an expansive outdoor patio, live music, trivia and classic American cuisine such as their famous River Fire wings, Blue Bacon Burger and Cilantro Chicken, River’s Edge Bar & Grill is a top new dining destination.

“River’s Edge Bar & Grill is the perfect place enjoy American cuisine and watch football. For Bear’s games, we will feature chili and specialty hotdogs during halftime, says Executive Chef Rick Kaniuga. “We will also feature specials such as Open Mic Tuesdays (featuring local artists), Whiskey & Wings Wednesdays (with half off wings and specials on top shelf whiskey), Trivia Thursdays (with jam sessions in the beer garden) and more.”

Kaniuga is a graduate of Le Cordon Bleu culinary school and has worked in many popular restaurants in the Chicagoland area such as Clara’s Fresh Pasta. Kaniuga brings a new menu to River’s Edge Bar & Grill. The menu includes:

Wings:
• RIVER FIRE: For spicy dare devils, these wings are made with a mix of Green Habanero and Ancho chile sauce.
• WOODFORD RESERVE DOUBLE OAKED CHIPOTLE GLAZE: This smoky, sweet and spicy sauce is made with Woodford Reserve Double Oaked Bourbon, pureed chipotle peppers, adobo sauce and honey.
• BUFFALO: Made the old fashioned way with Frank’s Red Hot sauce, these medium hot buffalo wings have the perfect kick.
