Stopped here for dinner since it was so close to my hotel. I actually didn't know this was a chain since I am not from there area. I came in just after 8pm and the restaurant wasn't too busy. I asked to be seated in the bar so I could watch the games on TV. The waitress was very prompt to come over and help me and was attentive the whole time so no issues with the service. I saw on the menu that there were local beers and to ask my waitress/waiter for the list of what was currently available but found they didn't have anything local. My meal was pretty good. I question the whole made from scratch thing but I have no serious complaints. My medium steak was cooked excellent and I liked the fried onions that came with the steak. My baked potato was probably my one issue with my meal. It was your typical chain restaurant potato that requires a lot of digging to get the potato out of the peel (not light and fluffy at all). The broccoli cheddar casserole was good. The free cookies for being a first time visitor were a nice touch. I wasn't sure if it took an unusual amount of time for my meal to come out as others have mentioned. I was working and really not paying attention. Overall I would go here again. This place is right next to the hotel I usually stay at, the prices were reasonable, the service was friendly, and the food left me satisfied. A meal and a beer for $20 and out the door in under an hour is what I expect for 3 star restaurant. Offer some local beers and I would raise this to 4 stars and stick around for another round. read more

Had a delicious meal here. I got the Dijon chicken breast topped with sautéed mushrooms and a side of the broccoli casserole and the southern green beans. The chicken was cooked perfectly. The Dijon sauce was creamy and the broccoli casserole is a must get. The service was quick and friendly and the ambiance is always cozy and slightly elegant at Cheddar's. Such a cool place no matter what Cheddar's I go to, I always have had a good meal read more

I had steak here I asked for medium rare and got a raw steak will not be coming again

Food is ok several cockroaches around everywhere , including in the food i had to speak to manager about the situation

I went for lunch to Cheddars and used the self check at the table. The waitress came by to check and said that my payment was not completed. The manger was sent to the table and he asked to resubmit the payment. So, I had to redo the transaction and was told that the payment went thru only once. I asked if they were sure and they said yes. Unfortunately, I was charged twice for the one meal. I won't be back. Good riddance! read more

Buyer beware. It was a busy night, and their app said no wait. When we arrived, the app had us 4th. She started calling parties that were not on the app. She was hand writing a list, and put us on it when we arrived. I'd still check in online, but know that they lied to us. She sat 3 parties and 1 came off the list. I left. I didn't mind waiting, but i don't tolerate lieing, cheating, or dishonesty. Its not good policy. read more

Great food and excellent service. Sat by the bar side and it was great. Great atmosphere and had a great time. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Grilled pork chops with smothered onions, mashed potatoes and broccoli cheese casserole. - Comfort Food Near Me - Brownsville, Texas

This is the second time I ordered food, waiting for the server to tell me 45 minutes later that they ran out of Ceasars dressing. I asked for water and never got it. Last week, I ordered a baked potato, and 30 minutes later, they told me they ran out of potatoes. read more

We decided to eat at the bar. Am I wrong for expecting sane service as a table? All bartenders were giving all their attention and I mean all their attention to this regular customer. It was exaggerated. They never took our order. We finally flagged one of them down! They were on him like flies on sh_t. We almost walked out. The mgr came up to us and told us to repeat our order cuz they lost it! They took forever. We almost walked again. No refills and not even a we will be right with you. We took a whole hour and a half! And don't say that that's our generation. I taught my sons and daughter to give it their best at work. Not half ass it. This town is so darn lazy. read more

Human hair in the food... disgusting... that's what we look at... let's imagine what we don't look at

So disappointed. Ordered meat loaf dinner to go. The meat loaf was BURNT. No way the server didn't know. It was pouring rain so I tipped the kid $5.00 to bring it to the car. Called the manager to complain and he wanted me to drive back so he could replace it. read more

Our steak was over cooked and very small not even worth the amount we paid. The waitress was notified and didn't take any action. Very disappointed as it was my first time at this restaurant. Will not return. read more

Place is too loud. The flat iron steak was thick stuff and not done to what we ordered. No ribs. On menu but did not have any available.

The lady 3 times I have visited with my family there's been bad customer service, cold food, and raw chicken. It saddens me I will no longer be visiting this location. read more

Food was decent, fries were burnt and lacked flavor, un able to complain since we never saw our server after the food was delivered. No refills on our drinks. Server forgot to place our drink order, we waited 15 mins thinking our drinks were coming... Ended up asking the hostess for Togo boxes. Either good food and bad service, or bad food and good service, never both. Good luck.. read more

Love the burger tonight. Thanks! Cowboy burger is lightly seasoned. I've had other burgers elsewhere and they add way too much salt. Oh and we love the fact they add croissants to every order. Awesome job folks. Keep it up! read more

Flavorful food, good mixed drinks and fair prices, but service at this location can sometimes be a bit iffy. Ive been pretty happy with most of the food I tried, but my latest love is the chicken pot pie. Super flaky crust over a bowl of soupy deliciousness with chunks of chicken breast, peas and carrots. It comes with a substantial side salad and buttery croissant. read more

Cheddars is my favorite restaurant. By far. I live in the San Antonio area and recommenced this place to my family I'm visiting. ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!! They don't use filtered water (imagine the water they cook with), tea tastes like it's not sweetened, spinach dip wasn't made with cream cheese. Every part of the meal was so disgusting. I was give a -6/10 if I could. read more

The place is just next to my hotel while travel to BRO. The quality of food is unbelievably good with affordable price, no wonder there was a line just after 7pm. I have ordered rib eye which was cooked very well. The environment is cozy and well designed. I liked this and will re-visit when next time in town. read more

I used to come here 3 years ago tried it but it seems like drink are limited to the menu, staff has no leadership and food lacks presentation. As I'm writing this I've left my plates to the side and the waiter has passed 6 times, although he has mentioned he's not my waiter he did took my order...... Very disappointed read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Flies all over the bar area - Comfort Food Near Me - Brownsville, Texas

Service at the bar was horrible, the bartender whose name I did not get probably mid 40s has what I describe as tunnel vision. He would engage in conversation with someone and totally ignore the rest. Twice came to deliver food to person next to me and did not even glance my way to see if I wanted another glass of wine or something else. Funny thing was his conversation with one patron was that he had been in the service industry for 18 years. This man is clueless to say the least, should work in any industry except Restautant industry. After close to an hour having had a cup of soup and a glass of wine he finally came over and asked if I wanted anything else. I said just the check and will never go back.... read more

Ordered the chicken fried chicken and the single portion was small and the chicken was hard to cut with the fork so was probably overcooked. Chips were burnt that came with the spinach dip. Sweet tea was not to par. Service was also poor never got a refill till it was time to pay the bill. Overall Cheddar's has gone down unless it's just the location since I'm from Austin. read more

Haven't been here in a couple of years. New menu, good selections. Not very busy which makes me leery but the food did not disappoint. Everything was delicious and fresh. The service was excellent. In this town that's not common. Highly recommend, will be back soon. read more

Cheddars is always has great food! This location was no exception. Although, the service was mediocre. I waited for over 10 minutes with my card on the table to pay for my meal. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Butter croissant! Mmmmmmmm - Comfort Food Near Me - Brownsville, Texas

Cheddars is a great spot for ok-good food at a great price. The ambiance is casual but the decor and design give it a nice vibe. Today I had the ribs and tenders. The ribs were over cooked but the waitress immediately brought me a new slab of ribs that were very tender and juicy. Tenders were super good. Green beans are ok-good. House salad is one of my favorites here as you don't have to chop any of the veggies up like at other restaurants. We also had the Mushroom Dijon Chicken which is one of my favorite entrees here. Two very well portioned cuts of chicken breast covered in a Dijon mustard sauce and topped with mushrooms over a bed of rice. VERY GOOD. Service was good. Wait time is good. Also it's a great place for happy hour and drinks. read more

Arrived at 11:25am on a Thursday. Server was a girl named Christina. We arrived and asked the hostess for a table for 2 and we were going to need 2 which chairs for our 3 and 1 year olds. The lady sat us in a booth for some reason. If you're a parent I am sure you understand, If you have common sense, I am sure you also understand. Took about 5 min to get our drinks ordered. We ordered 2 kids meals and a meal for my wife and I. Food arrived 50 minutes later. Cold. Anyone who has seen the movie "Waiting" knows you don't send the food back. Aside from being cold the food was good. Just the service was piss poor. read more

Be patient, this place is always packed and it is so for a good reason! Among a wide array of foods from sea food, to BBQ, Italian, Americana, the Steaks and Ribs are simply our favorite! Not only are the dishes fantastic but the price point just can't be beat. The Steak & Ribs Plate with 2 sides =$14.49!!! VERY affordable for what you get. Not to mention the cocktail drinks are astounding & start at about $4. The flavor is always on point despite the many different signature drinks they serve! Considering the restaurant is jam packed, especially during peak hours, service has always been on point and our cocktails never go dry. The ambiance is very relaxing & elegant. Bar side is Darker with recess lighting to set the mood in a Mason walled, granite countertop bar. Simply can't beat the quality and value! read more

Not nice. Dirty dishes - greasy fingerprints every ware , dirty silverware, food looks like it was dropped before it made it to the plate. As Leon Spinks said after getting pummeled by Ali "He wasn't be impressin' me" read more

HIGHLY disappointed. I am regular here for the Monster Cookie, this time I came and there was a long wait, a lady kept complaining in the waiting area and when i was given my Monster Cookie it was simnifically smaller than the full pan they serve it in and it was extremely cold too!!!!! read more

Very disappointed in the food. The portions were adequate but the taste was very much to be desired. The ribeye had no flavor whatsoever and was extremely thin!!!! Closer attention is needed when frying the cheese bites, as the order we received was overcooked. read more

Not too happy with my salmon plate. Cuz I ordered the lighter side many times before but this time I think they must have run out of broccoli. I was served 4 small pieces of broccoli and m6 salmon was really thin. read more

It was alright.. Dirty Al's Margaritas are more AWESOME. ... I had the chicken pot pie. It was great. read more

My boyfriend wanted to take me out to eat on a special occasion so he wanted to make sure he didn't have to reserve to eat or to just walk in. The lady who answered the phone gave him the BIGGEST attitude when he simply asked a question! Please hire people who won't be pissed at strangers!!!! read more

Upon entering the restaurant we were greeted by young lady who provided with a cheerful and delighted tone to seat us. We were sat in a dark lit room by the bar, and unfortunately sat next to noisy kids. The waiter was alright did nothing to go above and beyond and settled for the bare minimum. Simply put, mediocre! The prices are pretty cheap and clearly reflect the food and service. Waited about 20 minutes for the tab. Waiter didn't ask if we needed refills.... Still waiting for the tab. read more

I must say the cheddars in McAllen is a bit faster than this one. You typically wait less than 10 minutes to get your food in McAllen and in Brownsville we waited about 18-22 minutes. The presentation of the food is the same, as I expected because it's a franchise. The waiter took good care of us and brought out the check with a to go box since we had some leftover food. Overall it was a good experience. Oh! And if you're waiting to be seated, you can sit at the bar and order your drinks there. (You won't have to pay two tabs, you can take your drink to the table once you're seated.) read more

My family and I decided on this establishment after the 1st Communion of my niece. We were about 15 in our party. We were told the wait was going to be 45-50 minutes long. We arrived at 1pm and didn't get seated until 2:47 pm. This was a management issue! As other parties finished their meals, they could've move tables around to accommodate our party. Instead, the chose to have us wait for another large party that was sitting in an enclosed section (opposite of the bar) to finish their meals before sitting us. If it hadn't been for my niece that chose this place to celebrate her first communion, we would've gladly gone somewhere else. To top it off, we were only assigned one server. A party of 10 or more usually gets assigned more than one server in order to expedite the meal. But not at this establishment. I definitely will not return... read more

Service is horrible!!! Walked in and sat down but didn't get serviced. There was a full staff just watching but none cared to greet and attend us. After asking for a waiter a gentleman at the bar just clapped. Super rude and uninviting!!! Of course we walked out and are not going back. Such a shame read more

I was told cheddars was in the same class as a chillies, ruby Tuesday's etc. I would agree. A smaller menu and lacking in the " vibe" department. At least my steak was cooked correctly, medium rare. But arrived on a cold plate!! Definitely not on my first choice list. If in This part of the world don't fold to the group...... Go Mexican. read more

I love their food here. I'm always satisfied when I eat here. Not only is the food great but it is reasonably priced!

I love this place, it is always packed but the prices are great for the amount of food you get served. Sometimes the food can be a hit or miss on flavor but their drinks are good as well. I am always trying to get something new on the menu to try new things and so far I have not gone wrong with any of them. read more
