Classic Chicken Sandwich
Bill V.

Onions rings were the best. Absolutely a hit! Service was great, the waiter was attentive. The restaurant was clean and has a nice vibe to it. Not a bad place to grab a lunch and relax.

Fish n chips

Erica was so nice! Great server. The fish and chips were pretty good. I enjoyed the fish and tartar sauce a lot. The fries were just normal, nothing outstanding. The crescent tool they bring was a really nice touch. Parking was easy. The restaurant is large and you don't feel like you are too close to anyone. The booth was a little snug for a bigger person. Lunch menu reasonably priced. There is a lot of items I would like to explore. Yes I'll be back.

Cheddars is always a "hit" for me and this location was no different. Our party of 5 was seated right away around 6pm the day after Christmas. The warm croissants are always the perfect way to start a meal here. Within our group, we ordered chicken Alfredo pasta, fish fingers, vegetable platter, lemon pepper chicken, and I had the grilled tilapia and shrimp. Everything was excellent and most people had left overs. We also places to-go orders of a buffalo wrap and chicken pot pies. For the 5 meals at the restaurant and 2 to-go orders, the total was just under $100. This was a GREAT deal, especially in today's economy. Can't wait to return.

Homemade Onion Rings

Soon as I walked in I was greeted nicely and seated very quickly. The service definitely is top tier. When you enter you're met with a giant fish tank to dine by or look at and the fans are unique, the ambiance of the restaurant is amazing. I started with their homemade onion rings, spinach artichoke dip and chips, and also chicken tenders with honey mustard, and chips and salsa, it was pretty good. For dinner I went with a Ribeye Steak medium well and it was super tender, I got a loaded baked potato for a side, and also some steak fries which were delicious too. The deserts are also not to be slept on, the chocolate cake looked delicious but I didn't try it! I'd definitely be back! If you're thinking about going, go!

My nieces decided they wanted to get dinner here. The women at the hostess stand were extremely nice. Our waitress was amazing & very patient with us (sometimes 3 kids can be a little challenging when it comes to ordering). My nieces had fun and enjoyed all of their food. We ordered the monster cookie for dessert and it was gone within minutes. My only complaint is that it was extremely cold inside the restaurant.

Chicken Tender Platter w/bacon cheddar mashed potatoes & house side salad

It has been a hot minute since we've gone to Cheddars. We had $40 gift card to use but didn't want to eat in. We did curbside. First of all, we didn't even have a chance to check-in on the app. The young lady who delivered our food recognized the truck as described when I placed the order. Due at 7:55, we got there at 7:57. We took the 15 minute drive home and open up our large bag with all the food accounted for!! My oh my were we pleasantly surprised!! I did realize the ribs were going to be a 1/2 rack. There were 4 huge chicken tenders as well. I did a $.99 upcharge for the salad, then got red beans and rice as a side. This meal was less than $20!! My wife got the chicken tenders platter with upcharge on side house salad and upcharge for the bacon cheddar mashed potatoes. With the two sides her meal was less than $15. One picture shows what we had remaining after we had filled ourselves. 5 tenders and 4 bones of ribs. The only problem would have been the warmth or coolness of the food. The ribs weren't cold, but cool. The tenders were warm. We did travel 15 minutes and some of that is expected. But I'm not complaining because the food was really good!! I'll talk about ambiance to satisfy this review. Always enjoy the atmosphere of the restaurant as well when we've eaten in. Ambiance:

Okay so we decided to come here last minute, and honestly wish we woulda gone somewhere else. we came in at about 930/10 on a sunday night. our server was friendly but literally messed up multiple things with our order. so my boyfriend made it clear he wanted an extra piece of texas toast to go along with his pasta. he was brought out his pasta first then a few minutes later his side of rice with frozen butter on top. we waited another 5-7 minutes on his texas toast. He wanted to eat the toast and the pasta together, so of course by the time it was brought out, his entree was cold. Our server was no where to be found until she brought out 2 regular pieces of bread. with FROZEN, yes frozen butter. if she knew they didn't have the texas toast like is shown in the picture she should have notified us. Needless to say he wasn't happy with his meal. On the other hand mine was great, but nearly half of it was one before he received all his food. I asked for broccoli and yet she brought me broccoli casserole. So I ordered the watermelon margarita on the rocks. I was brought out a frozen margarita swirl. Told her it was the wrong one so she brought out the correct one. In the picture a slice of watermelon is on the glass, well not mine. Highlight of our meal was the HUGE chocolate cake which also took her a very long time to bring out. In fact she handed us our bill before even asking if we wanted anything else. We actually got another server and told them if she isnt already on the way out with it she could just keep it. Unfortunate and poor experience at this location. I have never had this many issues with a cheddar's. and unfortunately this was my boyfriends first time eating at one and he isn't excited to try it again after his first visit.

I am so torn here. The food was like food my grandmother would make, which I really appreciate…read morebeing able to eat since she's passed on. It was not the best food in the world but the food here tastes like home to me. Just really well seasoned and old school. Now here's my issue. This establishment had me wait almost 90 minutes on a 92 degree day (WITH MY FIVE YEAR OLD) for two meals. They had already taken my money, otherwise I would have booked it. Here's what I ate: 1. Fried Pork Chop with mashed potaotes (they were out of potato salad) and greens, gravy on the side 2. Ribs with macaroni and cheese and Pinto Beans I also got a blackberry cobbler. I checked in after 30 minutes and they weren't sympathetic. I looked at these reviews later and saw that someone said the customer service at this establishment was hilarious and they were not kidding. Here's how everything tasted: Pork Chop: very flavorful, glad I got fried and not smothered for texture reasons Mashed potatoes: good and real, but nothing to write home about Ribs: They were okay. tender. tasted like they were boiled and that's not my preference...they were also swimming in sauce. I feel like ribs should be able to stand up without the sauce and I was not sure this could happen here. The bbq sauce is part of the dish for them. Greens: overly salted, underseasoned...they needed to be eaten by the pinto beans Pinto beans: absolutely no salt--would not order again Macaroni and cheese: this is the creamy kind, not the baked kind (not my preference. Gravy: excellent Blackberry Cobbler: FIVE STARS. Delicious, buttery, so tasty. I went home and tried to make one. Seriously: no notes here. It is a must try. Charging 2 dollars for a cup of kool-aid is insane. with this kind of customer services, it would be nice if they threw that sugar water in for free. I skipped it, but just thought I would mention if you plan on trying to have some for nostalgic reasons. I haven't had any in about 30 years and I was planning on it but not when I saw the price tag. I live in Illinois, but if I ever do visit again I will call my order in, go sight seeing and then pick up my food. Don't bring your kids to this establishment unless they have confirmed your order is ready!

Meal started with complimentary seafood bread, which was saturated in butter and cheese. I selected the item Special K from the Chef's Specialty menu as my main. This was 1/2 pound shrimp and 1/2 pound snow crab legs with a corn cobette and 3 small red potatoes. I selected Old Bay and garlic butter sauce as my boil flavor and at a medium spice level. This meal was cooked well and had nice flavor and texture. Peel and eat shrimp were not rubbery and had split shell and deveined. The crab legs had about 1/2 to 1 cup (by volume) meat after the cracking and snapping. Cobette seemed tough and overdone. Potatoes were okay. A plastic bib, several pairs of clear gloves, a seafood cracker and pick tools, and wet wipes are delivered along with the meal. We also had a takeout order of scallops and okra, but ended up pitching them because the scallops were so chewy and rubbery as to be inedible. The okra was just okay and really did not seem to have much flavor or seasoning. Would maybe come back here for the seafood boil again if there was another certificate offer, but most likely am not inclined to revisit for a long, long time. In fact, it had indeed been over 3 years since my last stop here.

It is a new spot that opened in the middle of the pandemic and as every new spot it has room for improvement like brewing better quality coffee for example ;). Average price per entree is around $12.

I ordered a breakfast bowl, which was supposed to come with country potatoes, but it was served with French fries! Toast was burnt and not edible, sausage patties were curled up and crispy, likely from microwave. The eggs were decent. My husband ordered chicken and waffles, which was supposed to come with a fried chicken thigh, but he was served chicken tenders. Our server was really nice, but a terrible experience overall.

Really lucked out that I was able to snag one of the few curbside spots out front, but this was a 7 PM weeknight. There are pay parking lots nearby. Decided on the Smokehouse Sampler $36 to make everyone happy. This is easily enough food for several meals unless you're starving and/or a committed carnivore. The sampler included 4 ribs, pulled pork, tender sliced brisket, a quarter of dark roasted chicken, and andouille sausage links. This menu item does not include any specific choice of sides, but does have 2 sauce dips, fried onion, pickles, onions, and bread tucked into the order. Chose 2 separate orders for sides $6 each of succotash (smoky goodness with bits of roasted corn, Lima beans, tomato, green beans, onion) and fried okra (spicy crunchy coating and some whole okra in the mix), which thrilled my veggie-leaning appetite. Based on quality and quantity of food, would deem this a great value and as expected comparatively to other venues. Employees were welcoming and friendly with the ordering and pickup process. Restaurant seemed well staffed and bustling with more of a downtown touristy clientele, but worth a local visit if timed correctly. Would return in the future.

It's been a while since we visited Silver Dollar, I'm talking old ownership, pre-Covid long time…read moreago. And let me tell you, it's obvious there's new ownership, new style, new menu and all for the better. The decor was giving a Bakersfield California vibe right in Louisville Kentucky. Visually appealing, honky Tonk with a small splash of humor. The day we went, was a sunny spring, I preferred indoor - we were sat at a super spacious booth. Menu is one page but they absolutely nailed it. He ordered a Hemingway. It came in a beautiful copper coupe with a dehydrated orange slice. Classy, cool with a kick. We started with the Mexican Hot Cheese dip. It's not your typical queso -- this had chilis, onions, garlic, jalapeños as toppings and it was delicious. It was accompanied by house made chips. The cheese though... Hubs had fried catfish with the Nashville Hot option and I had a Caesar salad with fried chicken. Fried Nashville hot catfish verdict - Very good, very spicy, very crispy. Caesar with chicken...I stole a crouton off the top, "that garlic crouton was amazing, I could eat those like a snack." The salad itself was divine. The dressing is light, you can taste the green chilis without the spicy kick. I could eat this salad every day! Of course we had to try the Mexican crème brûlée. Super creamy, chocolatey with spice custard with a delicate brûlée sugar on top, garnished with fresh strawberries. Same restaurant, new flavors better service, awesome experience.

First off - I love this local gem, and I think it was just an odd/off night. It started with a scary trip to the ladies room, and it was just a mess. The first part of our evening (meeting friends) was great. Cocktails were tasty and the music was vibing. Fried pickles were AWESOME. At one point, the bartender changed the record and it became crazy loud - we literally couldn't hear the person 2 feet away speaking. A member of our party got up and asked the bartender if he could turn it down (asked politely), and was ignored. Literally ignored - bartender looked at my friend and the just walked away (and not to turn down the music). Next cocktail was AWFUL... food came out, and it was hot but nothing great; fries were oily. Churros were tough and overcooked as well. Our server (a younger woman) was attentive and friendly, and that was the highlight of our visit. She did turn down the music when we asked (and after another table I believe also asked). It wasn't a busy night, and I love the vinyl vibe and cool venue - we will come back and try again, but when 3 cocktails, an appetizer, and entree cost close to $100 before tip (for 2 - our friends were the same, so $200 for a table), you really need to be on point and provide solid service.
