Had a great time at dinner with a friend at Zollie's!…read more Very friendly staff, great atmosphere, talented jazz musicians providing entertainment for our Saturday dinner. It's a small place, and the music can be a little loud, so best for a smaller, intimate group of diners. Cocktails were solid --- my friend ordered the Winter White Cosmo (which uses white cranberry juice), which was delicious, and I chose the Lady in Red, a vodka drink featuring hibiscus and elderflower which was yummy as well. We started with the cornbread and the brussels sprouts. The cornbread was good, though the texture was more dense and less crumbly than I expected... and though it's pitched as "sweet and spicy," the emphasis is more on "sweet." The brussels sprouts with fig-balsamic glaze and parmesan were delicious, though! My friend ordered the gumbo, which she enjoyed but noted it was quite spicy! I chose the salmon, which is cooked en papillote with a banana leaf and served with a salad of arugula, bell peppers, mango, and papaya on top. The salmon texture was perfect, and it was a delicious, lighter option for dinner. Overall, the food didn't blow my mind, but it's such a fun and welcoming atmosphere that I would definitely go back.

We were immediately seated, and that's when we were introduced to our server, Patty. Patty is AMAZING. Not only is she gorgeous, but she took GREAT care of my cousin and I. I've only been to Nora Lee's once a long time ago, as I'm from out of state, so Patty had some great recommendations for me. I settled on the Filet Tips & Tortellini which is a dinner special, and HOLY COW was I NOT disappointed!!! It was truly one of the best meals I've had. Since we came pretty late, Patty didn't have a lot of tables, so she was able to chat with us here and there, and that made our experience even better. She also made sure our drinks never hit half way, which was a definite plus. I wish I was local, because if I was, I'd definitely become a regular here, even if it was just to grab a drink at the bar. Thank you Patty, for a wonderful experience!!!

The flavorings on my green beans and cheese on broccoli was good. The cocktail was tropical which I like and I definitely didn't want to have more than one. I liked the number of options available, especially for a from scratch kitchen. There aren't too many places in the area open past 10' PM for dine in except for Applebees and a diner probably. So I might come here for that alone.

What a delightful evening last weekend at Cheddar's! Think of a cozy, no fuss family…read moreatmosphere..Our server Maureen was so attentive and helpful. We never had to look for her to top off our drinks or to bring us anything. All of the food was delicious. From the honey butter croissants to the onion ring appetizers to the entrees (ribs, steak bites, country fried steak), to the desserts (apple pie and ice cream and carrot cake). The onion rings were some of the best that I have had, not greasy, not overly seasoned, and nice and crispy, and so many for the whole table...and the carrot cake, apple pie and ice cream made a tasty end to a really good meal...Hefty portions and reasonable prices. What more can you ask for? - The online option to join the wait-list did not give an arrival option. When I reserved our table when we were about 20 minutes from the location (we were traveling from Baltimore) our table was ready earlier than expected. I called to alert the staff that we were delayed and was told to just check in when we arrived. Unfortunately we still had to wait about 1/2 hour for our table when we got there. - Although delicious, the steak bites were over seasoned and quite salty. Thank goodness the mashed potatoes were able to balance it out somewhat. All in all, I would definitely come again to try out some other menu items.

My wife and I ordered simple salads--nothing complicated--and it still took about an hour for the food to arrive. After we finished, our waitress disappeared and it took another 45 minutes just to get the check. At that point I was getting anxious because we needed to get back on the road. I even had to ask a busser to find our waitress. She apologized and mentioned she had a big party, but the issue wasn't just the check--it was the entire length and pace of the experience.
