We did the join the wait list on the website. The freeway had all kinds of issues so we were at 45 mins from when we joined. As we pulled into the handicap parking i received a text sorry to see you go your reservation has been canceled I call the girl on the phone apologized and got us right in. Service was great. The waiter came right away for drink orders. Brought fresh hot croissants when he brought our drinks. Everything was great and the food was great. We each had a chicken dish and one was herb grilled chicken and other was a Dijon mushroom grilled chicken. Both were absolutely the best and dervice was wonderful read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen continues to be a place we enjoy, and this week's visit was another great experience. First, I want to thank Trey for his outstanding service. He was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. Great service always makes a good dining experience even better. The manager also stopped by our table which always is always nice One of my favorite things about Cheddar's is that every meal starts with their complimentary Honey Butter Croissants. They are warm, flaky, buttery, and topped with a sweet honey glaze. They are absolutely delicious and such a nice touch. My husband ordered the Pain Killer (Pusser's Rum, cream of coconut, pineapple juice, orange juice, toasted coconut rim, and topped with nutmeg). It was refreshing, well-balanced, and one of the best tropical cocktails he's had in quite a while. For his entrée, he chose the Spasagna--a creative twist on lasagna with spaghetti layered with four cheeses, then baked and topped with homemade Alfredo and marinara sauces, served with garlic bread. He's Italian and can be pretty particular about Italian food, so the fact that he thoroughly enjoyed it says a lot. It was rich, cheesy, comforting, and full of flavor. My daughter and I both ordered the Monte Cristo, and it definitely did not disappoint. The sandwich was perfectly crispy on the outside with a delicious combination of ham, turkey, and cheese inside. Paired with the raspberry preserves, it hit that perfect balance of sweet and savory. By the end of the meal, we were completely full and had no room left for dessert--which just gives us another reason to come back. Cheddar's continues to offer generous portions, delicious food, and excellent service at a very reasonable price. We'll definitely be back. read more

I have gone to this location multiple times. Each time the service was great. All the servers were attentive and friendly and checked on me multiple times. Please keep up this great consistency of this wonderful service. The restaurant is huge and has plenty of space. TIP: they have lunch specials for cheaper price!! This time I came in for dinner. You get a free Honey Butter croissant for each person. Honestly this is my favorite thing from the restaurant! You can purchase more after for $1.50. The honey butter sauce is sooo addicting! I got the New Orleans pasta. It has a good kick to it! The sauce was flavorful, the shrimp taste fresh and tender and the sausage was tasty as well. Also got their chicken tenders. Some how their tendies taste better than other normal American restaurants. The tenders are crispy on the outside and hot and juicy on the inside. I also tried their burger before, and it was great as well! Overall 10/10 read more

I haven't been to Cheddar's in forever, but we came here to celebrate my cousin's birthday and had a blast! Our waitress (I hate that I forgot her name) was AMAZING. She was friendly, funny, professional, and kept checking on us without being overbearing. She deserves a raise...and about 6 weeks of paid vacation while we're at it! My cousin is an actor, so it was cool seeing people recognize him from Chicago P.D. and a few other shows. For a minute I forgot he was just my cousin and started feeling like I was hanging out with a celebrity...then I remembered, "Wait...I actually am!" I ordered a cold lemonade (a lifesaver in this Arizona heat), the half rack of ribs with fries, a salad, and those famous croissants. Everything was ! I do wish my ribs had a little more BBQ sauce, but that's on me because I didn't ask. They were still delicious. The prices were better than I remembered, we got seated right away, and the whole experience was awesome. Thanks, Cheddar's, for helping us celebrate my cousin's birthday. We'll definitely be back! read more

We were excited to try their Monte Cristo sandwiches, which is a family favorite. We love the appetizer croissants, and we shared a Cesar salad to start and splurged on onion rings which were cooked perfectly. It was super crisp and cold. The Hubbs got the fish and chips - a very generous portion. The batter was nice and crisp but the fish itself was mushy. My Monte Cristo was very good. I like the raspberry jam that goes with it. We definitely had plenty to take home. Our server was very good and we had no complaints there. read more

Why haven't I tried Cheddar's sooner?! I started with the chips and queso, which were so good, and then ordered the New Orleans Pasta for my main meal. It comes with chicken, shrimp, and sausage and OMG -- it was amazing. I don't know what they do with their sauce, but I seriously want the recipe. It was that good. On top of the great food, the prices are super reasonable. And for $5, you can get a Tito's and cranberry -- anytime, any day. I don't know many restaurants offering deals like that anymore. I honestly can't say enough good things about this place. Great food, great prices, and definitely a new go-to spot. We'll absolutely be back. read more

Great food, reasonable prices, amazing croissants served with every meal. It's our go to place.

I like this chain restaurant a lot, and can't understand why there aren't more in the valley. I can't speak for other locations, but this one is very pretty, with gorgeous brickwork, lots of plants, a built in aquarium, and a super cool overhead fan. This place does serve alcohol. The menu has a lot of different options of standard American food. There is also a nice cocktail menu. The real surprise are the prices, which are pretty darn good. We ordered: *Cajun Chicken Bowl *Homemade Chicken Pot Pie with Caesar salad *Philly Cheesesteak with fries *Grilled Whitefish with Broccoli Cheese Casserole and Coleslaw We all liked our meals, although hubby said that even though his Cajun Chicken Bowl was good, it want very "Cajun." The salad that came with my pot pie was huge--wayyy bigger than a regular side salad and the Caesar dressing was sooo good. My pot pie was a little runny, but it didn't matter to me because it tasted good. Affordable, good food in a nice atmosphere with good service. read more

Came here for lunch after shopping in the area. We were greeted as soon as we entered red and were shown to a table. The restaurant was nice and clean and our waitress was friendly. The service was pretty quick and I think the prices were very reasonable. I got the Caesar pasta salad which I thought was a unique twist on a regular Caesar salad. The menu was pretty big with a wide variety of options. I would describe this place as being like a Chili's or TGIF but with a bit of a southern twist. They had things like fried Shrimp and rice and beans. Overall, it was nothing super amazing but if you're in the area and looking for a cheaper sit down place to go, this is a good option. read more

This location is slipping in quality. The past two times, the food was cooled off. Today I ordered Chicken Tenders Plater,French frys and string beans. When it arrived the French fries were slightly warn, as was the chicken & string beans. I'm done not complaining as this order should have been served HOT. We met friends there for a lunch & visit. I didn't want to raise an issue but I'm so disappointed. The sever shouldn't have served a cold meal. I betting it was sitting on a shelf without a heating lamp and cooled down. My receipt shows CSK#2039-2 guests, table 34 check #70255 07/29/2026. The other couple had a different check.+ this location has 5 parking spots for takeout from several years ago. Maybe replace the handicapped parking spaces that were lost. read more

We wanted to give Cheddars a try since we have passed it several times. The layout is nice, menu has quite the selection. Mixed reviews but we believe in judging for ourselves. Being a Tuesday night we were seated right away. We had checked out the menu on the website so had a pretty good idea what we were getting. They start you out with the iced crescent rolls. They were warm but seemed old and warmed up. Ordered drinks, iced tea and water. Got their hand breaded onion rings appetizer and they were good. Came with ranch and a Cajun dip. Ranch was good Cajun dip had no flavor, tasted like mayonnaise mostly. I ordered the beer battered fish and shrimp with southern green beans and coleslaw. My wife ordered meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy, southern green beans. The some of the shrimp were overcooked, some were good. The fish was OK but a little soggy after a few minutes. The green beans were way overcooked to the point of mushy. The potatoes were good but the meatloaf was a disaster, strange texture in the middle and overcooked on the edges. I really was hoping to add another place to our choices for going out, but can't see that happening. Staff was great, restaurant was nice, food is the problem. read more

Went in tonight to celebrate a friend's birthday. I showed up a little bit later than the party (around 9), but they didn't close until 11, so didn't think it was a big deal. I showed up to the table with two other people and they didn't allow us to put a couple extra chairs,.. Understandable, so we sat at a different table. The server was very rude. We were only ordering drinks, which tasted like they had no alcohol in them. My boyfriend asked the server how much it would be for an extra shot, she said $4 and then proceeded to charge him $10... She then brought us our checks when we didn't even ask for them. There was a manager walking around and he went up to every other table to check in, except for us. Not sure if this place is racist, but that's what it felt like. Will not be returning to this place again. read more

Service was excellent and attentive. Our server was there with drink refills and to take requests relative to needs. The food was average. Not exciting but adequate for our grandson.

Food - The ribs were tender and moist. They were fall off the bone good. They had good flavor. I wasn't too much of a fan of the corn. It tasted so plain. The honey butter croissants that come complimentary at the beginning of the meal were delicious. The fries and chicken fingers were alright. Atmosphere - No strange or strong odors or smells. No music playing when I visited. I liked that. I prefer no music over loud music. I don't like loud music. It's hard to hear with loud music. I did not visit the restroom. Pleasant temperature inside. I have been to some places where it's been hot or cold. Quite a few other customers were inside when I visited. Seemed like a popular place. I liked the mood lighting. Service - Sit down style. Order and pay at the table. No self seating. Staff seemed busy with so many customers. Parking - Surface parking lot. No parking meter or parking structures or solar panels. Unique - Fish tank aquarium in the lobby. Mood lighting. Did not see a health rating on Yelp. read more

Wow! I've been going to outback with my father every Sunday for I don't know how many years. We stopped going just because of the price gouging. First off, I just wanted to say thanks to cheddars for keeping reasonable prices. I had never been in there before, passed by a few times for some reason I thought it was a breakfast place. I was going to come in tonight, but then I realized it was Monday night football. So I decided to take advantage of their delivery option. I am just amazed. The steak was thick and tasty. The baked potato was great. Not sure if it was supposed to come with sour cream and butter, but neither of them were there. It's fine. I had butter. The corn was tasty as well. The complementary sweet croissant was just an added bonus. Nice touch. I never plan on going to outback again. I am now a repeat customer of cheddars. Thank you guys! read more

First ate regularly at a location in Omaha, I think, but in a world of chain restaurants this one stands out for consistently good quality, great service, large portions at very reasonable prices. Have never had a bad meal here, not even during the pandemic, always ordering takeout. Ribs are great. Steaks are great. Chicken Pot Pie is great. Even the chicken fried chicken / steak is great. Everything really is made from scratch, apparently. read more

Cheddars has some of the best prices in town for large portions of yummy, home cooked, scratch kitchen food! For starters they give you a honey buttered croissant...now that's how you start a meal! We sat at the bar and had a great view of the water tank, it was very clean and had beautiful, lively, fish. For lunch we ordered the country fried chicken and half rack ribs with chicken tenders. The country fried chicken is served with your choice of white or brown gravy and both dishes are served with your choice of two sides. They were both really good, great flavors and the ribs were fall off the bone tender. However, the chicken tenders were cold and the chicken was very dry, they kinda seemed like an afterthought. Our sides were mash potatoes, side salad, buttered corn. I definitely recommend Cheddar's and we will be back to enjoy more!! read more

I predict this place will be closed within the next 2 years. This was the worst meal I've had in at least the last 15 years. The host / hostess (don't want to offend them by misgendering) that greeted us was the most miserable person they could have possibly put in that position. The restaurant smells like sewage, is there a leak somewhere? The host / hostess did not inform our waitress that they seated us. We were stuck at the table for quite some time without drinks or without being greeted I ordered the steak and shrimp. The steak was mediocre, the fried shrimp was the worst shrimp I've ever had in my entire life, and that includes fast food. It had a pungent fish odor, which anybody that eats shrimp knows is a sign of really low quality. The flavor was even worse than the smell. My wife had the Spagana and said it was ok. The meal came out to close to $50. If the food had been at least decent that would have been fine. The service the food, the smell, do not waste your money. Even though I did not eat my shrimp the waitress did not even ask if there was anything wrong with them when clearly there was. I'll never be back to this restaurant. I remember when this place actually had food made by scratch, and it used to be good. Those days are long gone. Also, this was a Friday night and at 8pm it's dead. I can see why! There used to be a line out the door in the old days here! read more

Went here on Valentine's day with my boyfriend and we didn't have the best experience. I thought my food was yummy but I went the safe route with chicken tenders and fries.

The restaurant was very nice looking on the inside and it has a lot or potential. read more

SENTRY - WATCHING RESTAURANTS Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen 2530 W Chandler Blvd 85224 Companion and I decided to try this restaurant for lunch. It was filled with people but we were seated immediately. We decided in advance to each order a different dish and cut it in half so we could each try it. I ordered the Meatloaf, and companion ordered Country Fried Steak. The steak came with green beans and an elected salad. My Meatloaf came with coleslaw and and elected salad. In reasonable time the dished came and we each cut them in half. The Meatloaf portion was two slices with a tiny amount of gravy on it with chopped coleslaw and a bowl of salad. Companions steak came with a very small portion of gravy on it along with canned green beans and the elected salad. We both agreed that without a decent amount of gravy both dishes were without merit. We had our wait person bring us dishes of gravy which we poured over the main courses and which were an immediate improvement. The Meatloaf was blackened in some areas and quite dry, while the steak was battered in a thick batter that disguised the small amount of meat in the plate. We ordered the Fried Apple Pie for dessert. Companion stated that it reminded them of the fried pie at Macdonalds. The Ice Cream with it was adequate. Bathrooms were clean, and no stains showed up under black light inspection. If this is truly scratch cooking my suggestion would be to go to cooking school to learn a lot more about scratch cooking. You are expected to pay your bill on an electronic device on your table connected to the internet. I didn't trust it and asked for my credit card to be run on a regular machine. With trying hard, 3 stars. read more

Hubby & I had dinner here last night. We were seated right away. They have lots of bench seating that provide privacy. It took a few minutes for our server to come to us, but not horrible. We ordered a beer & sangria. We also ordered cheese curds at this time. Our cheese curds came out sup fast. They were out before the drinks. Hubby ordered the chicken strip with honey hot sauce on them with a side salad & fries. I ordered the chicken fried steak with mashed potatoes and a side salad. I asked for the brown gravy on the side. She also brought out a croissant with honey butter for each of us. It was a ton of food. We had 5 takeout containers to take home. All the food came out sup fast. Each thing came out before we were done with the last. The service was okay. She checked on us a couple of times. We did have to wait on water refills & drink refills. I didn't love the sangria. There was a different taste to it, but we couldn't place it. The cheese curds were good, but greasy. The ranch was really good. The side salads were huge & good. We had ranch dressing. Hubby liked his chicken strips, but said he would get them plain next time. He likes spicy. He said the honey hot was really spicy which is not normal for him. Most hot isn't hot for him. I didn't like my chicken fried steak. The cube steak was really thick. The breading fell off when I cut into it. The breading tasted greasy. The Texas toast was good. The potatoes were fine, but the ratio of potatoes to steak was off. The gravy was good. Hubby didn't like the honey butter on the croissant. I had a couple of bites of mine & liked it. Our kids ate our leftovers. Our son also didn't like the honey butter, but our daughter did. We will probably go back, but I won't get the chicken fried steak again. read more

Drove down from Sedona because we've been wanting to try it. Yelp shows dog friendly on patio and that's not correct just service animals on patio, but the male manager was very nice to allow us to eat out there. We have a 3 pound Yorkie, which we held. Next time we will leave at home. The cheese curds are wonderful. The chicken tenders and fried shrimp, also wonderful. My husband had the painkiller drink and loved it. We will definitely go back. Ambiance was very nice. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen is consistently one of my favorite places to eat because you simply cannot beat the value. It is rare to find a spot that is this budget-friendly while still serving high-quality food that feels homemade. Every meal starts with those legendary honey butter croissants, which are always warm and addictive. The portions here are huge, especially considering the price. I am always impressed by how much you get, whether you are ordering the chicken tenders, the country fried steak, or their huge racks of ribs. You definitely get your money's worth and almost always have leftovers to take home. The atmosphere is comfortable and welcoming, and the service is usually quick and friendly. If you want a great meal that won't break the bank, this is the best spot in town. read more

We had a very good dinner experience at Cheddar's. This is a generous 4 star rating. It is more like a 3.5-3.75 in my opinion. We were seated pretty quickly. The restaurant was not super full as we arrived for a pretty late dinner on a Friday night. When you are seated they serve you delicious butter honey croissants that are heavenly. This is a must try. The menu has many options to choose from so everyone will find something they will like. We ordered the grilled shrimp Alfredo and Key West chicken and shrimp. It is served on rice and you get to choose two sides. I picked baby carrots and corn. I also asked if they can make the Maui margarita without alcohol and the answer was yes!! The grilled shrimp Alfredo pasta was delicious. Perfectly cooked pasta in a delicious white sauce. The chicken and shrimp dish was pretty good but was overly sweet for my liking, it almost felt like I was having a dessert. Dish is served with a pineapple salsa. The carrots were not my favorite. They looked old and didn't taste that good. Corn was a pretty good side. If they go easy on the sweet sauce and the pineapples in the pineapple salsa, the dish will taste better. The virgin Maui margarita was absolutely delicious! If I go back, it'll be to specifically to have it again. It was so refreshing, it felt like a drink you would want to have by the pool or at the beach! Service was excellent despite us going for a late dinner on a Friday night. Prices are very reasonable so it is easy on the wallet too. Worth a try! read more

We drove over to meet my older son and his girlfriend for a late lunch today. The place was quite busy, but we were seated right away and drink orders taken. We ordered an appetizer of the honey butter croissants and took some time to look over the menu. I chose the New Orleans Pasta, my husband the chicken tender salad, my son the honey hot tenders and his girlfriend the buffalo chicken wraps. Everything came out quickly and it was all delicious. All the portions were huge we had to take 3 boxes of left overs with all. Vibe was pretty chill. Looks a bit nicer than a lot of restaurants but I wouldn't say it's fancy either. Prices were great though for the portion sizes. read more

First of all, apologies for the dearth of photos. I passed the camera around so that others could take photos of their food but those photos, for some reason, didn't come out. During our trip to AZ, I suggested that we all try Cheddar's for dinner one day. It's another Darden restaurant and Cheddar's says all their meals are made from scratch. I had their 1/2 rack of ribs. The BBQ sauce was tasty but the ribs were fatty. My husband and son-in-law both had steaks and liked them. I forget what each grandson had to eat but they all liked the food a lot. When we were getting ready to go home, I asked them which restaurant they tried during our trip was their favorite---they and their Dad all said "Cheddar's". Each table is given warm croissants. They aren't your typical croissants as they aren't flaky but they still are tasty. The kids attacked them like a pack of wild animals. Fortunately, the servers will bring seconds. So...basically, no one had any complaints about their meals. If I recall correctly, one grandson had a pasta dish while another had a chicken dish. As for ambience, it's got that family restaurant vibe to it --- lots of large booths for families. The staff was friendly and efficient. So...next time we're in AZ, it seems that another visit to Cheddar's will be inevitable. read more

My wife, daughter, son-in-law, three grandchildren, and I recently visited Cheddar's for my uncle's birthday. Unfortunately, what should have been a fun family celebration turned into a very disappointing experience. After placing our orders, it took about 20 minutes just to receive drinks. Throughout the meal, our waitress seemed to struggle with remembering our table. We frequently had to wait for refills and, at times, remind her that we needed drinks. After waiting nearly an hour with no food, I asked her about our order and was surprised when she told us it had only been sent to the kitchen about 10 minutes earlier. We then waited another 45 minutes before our food finally arrived. The most frustrating part was that the restaurant was not busy. Having a 1-year-old, 2-year-old, and 10-year-old with us made the long wait even more difficult. The kids were hungry, restless, and not used to sitting in a restaurant for nearly two hours waiting for food. Because of the excessive wait, we ended up consuming refill after refill of beverages just to try to compensate for our hunger. Needless to say, by the time our food finally arrived, much of my hunger and eagerness to eat had completely disappeared. Unfortunately, the food did not justify the wait. My wife's medium sirloin arrived extremely overcooked and was nowhere close to medium. The steak was so tough that she struggled to cut through it. When I tasted a piece, I immediately noticed an unpleasant flavor that reminded me of old beef liver. The meat had a rancid taste and a dry, rubbery texture that resembled chewing on shoe leather rather than eating a sirloin steak. It was honestly one of the worst steaks either of us has ever been served in a restaurant and certainly not what we expected after waiting nearly two hours. The loaded baked potatoes were also disappointing. They came with very little sour cream and cheese and no butter, salt, or pepper. My daughter said her shrimp platter was decent, and my chicken fried chicken was actually pretty good. However, the chicken strips ordered by my son-in-law and grandchildren were dry, and the fries were cold. The final disappointment came when my son-in-law found a hair in his baked potato. For a first visit, this experience could not have gone much worse. Between the nearly two-hour wait for food, the lack of attention to our table, poor food quality, an overcooked steak that tasted rancid, cold fries, dry chicken strips, and finding hair in a meal, my family agreed this will be our first and last visit to Cheddar's. What should have been a memorable family birthday celebration became an experience we would rather forget. read more
