    David was friendly and our food was fresh and hot. My chicken was a little salty, but I think that's my preference. My favorites are the broccoli cheese casserole and the carrots. I usually get a veggie plate with double both sides. We went while it wasn't crowded around 4pm. Atmosphere was pleasant in the bar area and not too loud.

    Staff here is always so incredibly nice. We visit for my cousin's birthday each year and always have a good waiter. The food isn't anything special but I always love the drinks. They're always fun and can help you have a fun time, too. There wasn't a great spot for our party but we squeezed into one of the back rooms well enough.

    greeted promptly upon arrival and sat almost immediately around 6pm on a tuesday. server came over and got drinks and croissants and cheese bites within minutes. salads came out right on time and absolutely delicious. the white fish was crispy and crunchy and seasoned perfectly, not too much not too little. the fries were great and plentiful. i was stuffed about halfway through but everything was so good i went ahead and finished anyway and everything was amazing so i got the fried apple pie to go. service was great, food was great, a nice ambiance and enjoyable evening. for the price and service this is definitely going into rotation as a regular dinner spot. thanks everyone.

    I don't frequent many chain establishments but this one gets two thumbs up from me. My beautiful wife is fond of cheddar's so she wanted to introduce me. We were bummed to find out the ranch dressing has been altered over time. However the food was satisfying. I had a side salad which was nice and cold. We also had the spinach artichoke dip. Not sure want makes it Santa Fe style as ours did not come with salsa. Still it was tasty and had sour cream. The chips were crispy and not too salty. The star of the show was the buffalo chicken wrap. The tenders were bomb. The pickles and cheese it comes with were a nice touch. The New Orleans pasta was good although I wish it had more sausage and was not ziti. The shrimp in it was very good. We balled out and had The cookie sundae thing and it was great. Good service. Lots of parking. Good decor. The screen/tablet thing on the table was kinda gross and not clean. Good prices.

    This place is definitely getting five stars from me! After visiting one of the local museums, my wife and I stopped by here at the recommendation of a co-worker. From the moment we entered, we were impressed by the restaurant's design. My wife, being a fish lover, was really into the double-sided fish tank. Once seated, our very gracious server Wesley took the time to go over the menu with us while making his suggestions. We decided on the Steak & Ribs, mashed potato, and broccoli casserole. Normally we get different items and share to get a broader experience, but by his description, we both were eager to have our own plates. He convinced us to start with the honey butter croissants for our appetizer and yes, they were amazing! I'm glad the order didn't take long because we would have made a meal out of that alone! I'm a bread eater and this was about as good as you can get when it comes to a croissant: hot, steamy, flakey, and caressed in honey butter. Both the steak AND the ribs were tender, flavorful, cooked to perfection and wonderful with their aftertaste. Add the incredible broccoli casserole and mashed potatoes (which weren't lacking in the least) and you've got one great experience. We try to visit a different spot each time we go to a city, but that's going to be hard when we return to Cincy because I want that exact same meal, again and again! I can only pray that they bring the chain to Columbus someday...

    Chicken strip kids meal ( large portions)

    Cheddars was delicious... we had great service and truly, the food is so tasty. I was unable to take a photo of the honey butter croissants because we devoured them so quickly. They were so soft and buttery and sweet, I had to order another serving. The spinach dip is the best I've had, and the salsa that comes with it was just the right balance of heat and flavor. The chicken strips are the star, they are delicious. I look forward to returning when I am back in the area.

    Another nice dinner with the family. Service was excellent and meal portions were HUGE! Come hungry and they won't disappoint! Busy evening after a quick wait we were seated and served immediately. Big menu and lots of choices for everyone! Glad we stopped back.

    I met my aunt here for dinner the other night. It was fairly busy, but we luckily didn't have a wait like larger groups were experiencing and were seated right away. Service was, expectedly, a little slow, but our server was attentive enough that we were able to order a soon as we knew what we wanted. We decided to split everything, so that we could try multiple items this visit. For an appetizer, we shared the queso, it had good flavor, and the consistency was fairly creamy without being too thick. We ordered the Buffalo Chicken Wrap and Monte Cristo for entrees. Both very generous portions and we could have easily made a meal out of just one of them. We are both a fan of Buffalo chicken wraps in general, and there's are a hit. Lots of filling in the wraps, and great flavor! The Monte Cristo is something neither of us had ever had before, and it was good, but not something I would want leftovers of again. The fries were good, but definitely came from different batches, as they were noticeably different in temperature. I've always had positive experiences at this location, and do enjoy the food any time I've been here.

    Standard food and your average chain. Service was good, but the best thing about this visit was the warm honey butter croissants, yum!

    My country fried steak, mashed potatoes, baby carrots,  not shown carrot cake. My wife's chicken tenders, broccoli cheese casserole.

    It's been years since either of us has been to a Cheddars. We were quite pleasantly surprised. The food was very good, as was the service. As we entered, we were greeted by the hostes, and she even asked if we preferred a table or booth. I've always had to ask for a table. I was very impressed.

    My husband and I stopped here for lunch and we were really hoping it wouldn't be a long wait, as we were on our way out of town. We had tried to eat here on a Sunday night a few days earlier and, even with several empty tables in the place the hostess said it would be a 25 minute wait- at 8pm. We walked in today and were seated immediately. The hostess was very friendly. Our server was at our table right away and got our drink order. She came back with our drinks and those sinful croissants within minutes. We gave her our order- we ordered an entree with 2 white fish filets and 2 sides. We ordered a salad as one of our sides and ordered an extra salad. She brought those right away. I failed to get a pic but they were huge salads with mixed greens, grated carrots, boiled eggs, cheese, croutons and cherry tomatoes. Everything was very fresh. Our entree came and she brought the extra plate with it. This is always a plus because sometimes they don't and we have to wait for the extra plate. The filets were huge and piping hot. The green beans were seasoned nicely. The food was all delicious. We had an excellent server and great food that came in a timely manner. Definitely a pleasant experience for us.

We have been back many times since and will be for the foreseeable future. The staff is always top notch and bonus that they laugh at my terrible jokes.

    Myself and my husband have been going to this First Watch on Colerain Ave.in Cincinnati, Ohio since…read morethe first day it was built. It's actually his favorite restaurant. But in the last year, there is a very unfriendly hostess and sometimes server she never smiles. She never has a nice thing to say and she's always bothered , today we went in and asked for one of many booths that were open that hadn't been cleaned and I said could we have that booth it was at 9 AM she says to us there's no busser till 9:30 AM. I said well if you wanna give me a towel, I'll clean it. She said nothing and turned away from us and we went and wiped off the table and sat there. I think she is making a very bad reputation for the Colerain First Watch. Everyone else there has always been nice to us at our favorite restaurant. But just seeing her unhappy face and put upon attitude, made us start searching then and there at our booth for a place close by that we can have a nice breakfast. She actually ruined our day.

I was not in the mood for steak as my other guest were, so I gave their wings a try and they did not disappoint. I prefer getting my wings plain, no matter where I'm at, as well as extra crispy. The sauce can sometimes take away from the crispness so I order my sauce on the side. It also allows you to see if their wings have actual flavor or if they rely solely on their sauces. The wings can definitely stand on their own. They came out just as I ordered with a bold flavor that highlighted their seasoning skills. There was almost no need for the buffalo sauce I ordered along with them. Side note: Both my fiancé and son ordered steaks and they were pleased with the quality of them. I would go back just for wings any day.
