Love taking out my lunch from this local spot! I got the lunch combo which consisted the turkey cheese sandwich, basil soup and choice of drink for $15. The portion is HUGE!!! Personally I felt the turkey was salty but it could be a me thing.Other than that everything was tasty and fresh. HUGE PORTIONS. There isn't a dine in option, you order online and if the seats in-front of the place is free you can eat there. More of a to-go place. Definitely will try their other options!
We were in town for a wedding and staying at a nearby Air B&B right down the street. I ordered food online and went to pick it up. It's a small little place with only a few seats. My food was ready to go when I arrived approximately 20 minutes after ordering. I got the turkey panini to split with my wife. I got the classic which has lettuce, tomatoes, red onion and mayo. It was exceptional! The cheese was gooey and sandwich hot and delicious. My wife got the pimento cheese with crackers which is sourced and made locally. They also had beer to go! I tried a blueberry ale from Isley Brewing, which is also local. We also got two cookies which were soft and chewy, just the way we like them. Definitely will order from here again if back in town in the future.
This is a hidden little gem with great food. I tried the Smoked Robison with tomato soup dipping sauce. It was absolutely delicious. To order you must use the chaos or scan the QR code and order using your phone. I highly recommend this place!
Yaaaaaassssssse! This spot gives me all the feels. First off, it is black owned and this gentleman is so hands on. He had me at "I don't use Daiya cheese" and I'm working on "vegan crab cakes" Can I get an AMEN?!?! Then as I'm sitting here typing my review, said owner, runs out because a patron forgot their beverages. So good food cooked by a good soul?!?! CHUUUUUURCH All games aside, the culinary creativity behind this place aims for perfection. All vegan food is not created equal. The folks at Cheddar Jackson are always aiming to make the food better. Plus, I'm now up on this new boogie sparkling water that is the truth. I mean, LAVENDER CUCUMBER?!?! How much more hipster cool can one get. Come here. Eat food. Oh yeah, they have regular meat too. If you are interested in consuming rotten flesh. Lastly, Cheddar Jackson has recently collaborated with Solstice Confectionery for baked sweets. I am not a sweet tooth person but the cookies were on point. Listen to me. Eat here. Stay safe. Happy New Year!
It was lunchtime, and I remembered Cheddar Jackson just opened in Jackson Ward, so I scooted on over and got the Northern Liberties on wheat, which comes with a 1/2 cup of chunky tomato basil soup. The bread was THE BOMB (so buttery and crispy just like a panini should be), but honestly, the filling (onions and peppers) was so tart, I couldn't really enjoy it. And the portabella was scant. Or maybe it all just tasted the same sour that I couldn't discern the taste of the portabella. The chunky tomato basil soup is VERY chunky. Too chunky for my taste, and yet again, too tart. Everything I ate tasted sour. Sour lunch. With just a few modifications, everything could be delicious. If there's a next time, it'll be just a plain grilled cheese. Doubtful, though. Too bad. Nice guys.
"The cheese stands alone" is there motto. And they are absolutely right. This newish restaurant was in the rva black restaurant week so I decided to try. So glad I did! I looked up the menu online and at first was a bit sad there were not a ton of meat options. I was going to order online but had a few menu questions, so I just stopped by and ordered in person. It was pretty quiet since it was a weekday afternoon. The owner & staffer were nice and answered my questions quickly! The sandwich was made to order so I waited outside ~10minutes. the Duvall sisters sandwich was A-MAZING. again, the motto it absolutely right. The cheeses, the bacon jam, the buttery bread. THE BACON JAM. The cheddar broccoli was yummy too! So much broccoli in the cup, so it was really filling. I also got a mango sake. It was good -- if you don't drink sake often (like me) the flavor may be a little overpowering. I may have to try a different flavor. This place is definitely a must try!
A great black-owned spot in Jackson Ward! Upon walking in, I was greeted by the friendly staff. l and chit chatted with them as I waited for my sandwich to be prepared. You can make your order online and customize your sandwich with several different add-ons (I highly recommend the caramelized onions!). There's a nice bar area to sit indoors and a super cute outdoor area with a couple of tables. My sandwich was fresh and flavorful, and the pasta salad was the perfect cold side on a hot summer day. A great business!!
Lovely vegan panini lunch for me & my husband on this our 21st anniversary. Our melty, toasted sandwiches were perfectly wrapped in novelty parchment paper (with an image of headline news Nov 19th 1996, I think?) served w tomato soup dipping sauce, put together by Madison & Diamond, the friendly and sweet young ladies behind the counter. My husband had a yummy vegan chocolate chip cookie to round out his meal. I was too stuffed to try one this go. We also enjoyed a chat w owner Brandon, whose warm personality and enthusiasm for his business was engaging and inspiring. The paninis really hit the spot and the whole experience has us looking forward to future visits. YES Vegan friendly
This is THE place for a grilled cheese in our city. The best part is they cater to the lactose intolerant folks and vegans too with really delicious ingredients that don't feel like lame substitutes. My fiancé and I live nearby and love coming here for a unique grilled cheese. They have everything from a classic sandwich to a decadent magical sandwich. The sandwiches here are made with love. I adore the woman who we usually run into when we come. She usually is the one who makes our sandwiches and I love how she writes something sweet on the box. These are delicious and big sandwiches. I always leave feeling full and sometimes even have leftovers. I love that the sandwiches come with a mini tomato basil soup for dipping. I highly recommend getting a sandwich with the focaccia, it's beyond delicious. My recent favorite is the Duval Sisters with plant based cheese and rosemary focaccia. Billie's Holiday is another favorite. It is more of a takeout vibe, but they do have two tables outside in front with four chairs if you want to eat there. You're also not too far from Clay Park or a picnic bench parklet in front of Art 180 (about 8 minute walk away). This local gem has soups, breakfast biscuits, grilled cheeses, plant-based options, dessert, and more. I highly recommend getting a sandwich from here ASAP. read more

I was very curious to come here and try out what they had to offer, very interesting concept to sell different kinds of grilled cheeses! So I tried the grilled cheese with ham and a sweet jelly! It was a very good mixture of sweet and salty and a nice toasty buttery bread! I love the tomatoes soup, it was so nostalgic dipping my sandwich in the dipping soup, sooo good! I highly recommend stoping by, it's only order to go but they do have a small sitting area outside if you want to enjoy the weather, other wise it's just pick up. The service was great, they really have a niche idea, with great food to back up the unique experience. The blueberry drink I had was very different, I think it's some kind of ale, but non alcoholic just fyi! read more

Really great sandwiches! UberEats delivery took a little long bc the driver did another order on the way but it was still warm! Sandwiches also come with a little 4oz cup of dipping soup which was really good. I hate tomatoes but sometimes I take a chance on tomato soul and this one was so worth it. I got a roast beef and cheddar panini (pictured), in the pic it looks a little flat but it was full enough of meat and cheese and horseradish. The horseradish flavor was so great, and it didn't even over power the meat and cheese. I'd definitely order this again and probably try some other stuff as well! The menu looks pretty creative with the other sandwiches and there was a crab bisque I'll probably try next time. They also have Boylan bottle sodas, my bf got a black cherry one which was great. They also have mexican coke, which is always a plus. read more

WOW!! I got the tuna melt with tomato dipping soup and it was out of this world delicious. The cheddar was extra sharp and the tuna was fantastic and the bread quality was top tier. I regret taking so long to check this spot out but it is well worth the cost if you like Panini's read more

I love grilled cheese... but this was my first time buying one from Cheddar Jackson. My daughter introduced me to them and these were SO GOOD! I had the Brooklyn vegan and the Bella vegan. These were grilled cheese turned up a notch!!! I cant even explain how tasty and flavorful these were and it came with a little cup of fresh tomato soup. I cant wait to order take out again because this was the best vegan grilled cheese I've had. I'm so grateful for a place that's figured out the need for great tasting vegan cheese! read more

This restaurant is exactly what Richmond didn't know it needed! The food is incredible, the atmosphere is chill with a little rock'n'roll, and where else can you actually get an amazing grilled cheese that isn't your momma's grilled cheese that is VEGAN!!! I haven't had a real grilled cheese in I don't know how long and I was not disappointed. I can't wait to go back and try more options on their menu. I got the tuna melt - vegan option - and my husband got the vegetarian burger grilled cheese. We both got sides of tomato soup which were so flavorful! I cannot recommend this spot enough and will most certainly be back, especially when it's warm enough to sit in their outdoor seating area and enjoy a beer! read more

I was so excited to try Cheddar Jackson, the newish establishment in Jackson Ward making fancy grilled cheese sandwiches. I mean, who doesn't love bougie grilled cheese? I've been struggling for a couple days with migraines and was really craving some comfort food. After spending an hour searching Yelp delivery for something that would hit right, I settled on finally trying Cheddar Jackson. I ordered the Bella I think it was called. Mozzarella and provolone with kale pesto and sun dried tomatoes drizzled with balsamic fig glaze. It stated that it would come with a half cup of the tomato soup but I also ordered a cup to have some for dinner. Additionally, I wanted to try the pickled cabbage and red onion and an order of the salted chocolate chip cookies because like I said, I felt terrible for days and wanted a treat. Well, I only received one small container of the soup so I'm not sure if that was what was supposed to accompany it or if that was my cup of soup but my idea for extra didn't work out. And my cookies were not included which made me super sad but was a relatively painless call to get refunded from the delivery provider. Snafu aside, I hate to say it but the food just isn't that great. My sandwich was just ok. The pesto was bland and I could not taste any of the aforementioned drizzle. It did have a ton of sun dried tomatoes but that was about all you could taste. And the cheese seemed practically non-existent. The crispy edges of the bread had a nice buttery flavor but that's about all I can say for that. The tomato soup had a nice roasted flavor but felt more like a marina or dipping sauce then soup. The best item in my order was the pickled cabbage which was tangy and crisp. All in all it was a regrettable meal. Pretty certain I won't be ordering here again. read more
