    Country Fried Chicken
    Darren S.

    I'm an early eater! My party and I came around 11:00 AM and were seated quite promptly by the hostess; the waitress was soft-spoken but diligent! She was amazing; she didn't forget any of our orders, she was courteous to make sure the apps came out before our entrees, and always checked up on us every now and then! I got a bottomless soda, and for my meal I had the country fried chicken with 2 pieces ($14.29). For my sides, I had got the loaded baked potato along with the Broccoli Casserole. When the food came out....every element on my plate was fresh-to-order. I was amazed at the quality, level of attention and service I received this past Friday. Keep it up, Cheddar's!

    food is cold, and i got a grilled cheese and my cheese isn't even melted. i want better.

    Dry, poor quality chicken
    Hannah M.

    YIKES! Ordered chicken strips (just had mouth surgery, needed something easy.) They were rubbery and overcooked. I could barely pull them apart. I sent my food back for the first time ever, which our waitress was understanding about. I ordered the lemon pepper chicken instead. It was dry, lukewarm, and just disappointing. The sides taste like buffet food and are just okay. The broccoli and cheese "casserole" is broccoli and Velveeta. The cole slaw is under seasoned. The rice is oversalted. The green beans are from a can. Cheddar's calls itself a casual cafe, and the prices reflect that the food won't be the highest tier of culinary wonder. But what I ordered today wasn't even edible. Rather than send food back twice, I went home hungry and with pity for the diners walking in.

    BBQ Bacon Chicken Sandwich
    Russell G.

    Cheddars is really going down hill- higher prices, smaller portions, and subpar service. Took 10 minutes to get initial service, took 15-20 Minutes for a simple grilled chicken sandwhich took 15 min to check out. Chicken was bland, over cooked and really small for $10 Chicken is bigger at Wendy's for half the cost

    Side Caesar salad
    Edric T.

    Whenever we are in town, we stopped by here occasionally whenever we wanted affordable steaks! This time we got seated by the bar booth. My fiancée had to switched over to my side because she says it's smelled like someone had puke in that seat and smelly. Our waitress, Michelle, was extremely accommodating and offered to wiped and clean down the seat for us. But my fiancée was fine over my side and didn't have problem with the smell when she at next to me. I had the T-Bone Steak with a side Caesar salad. My fiancée had an 8 oz sirloin with a house salad. When our steak were first brought out, my fiancée's steak looked dead like there's no life in it. It tasted like the steak sat in its blood and was cooked in it. We asked them to remake the steak and the difference between them shows. The new steak tastes WAY better than the lifeless beef we had. The new steak tasted like why we came to this location in the first place! The manager, Lane, checked on us when we asked to get it remade. He was accommodating and had the lifeless beef taken off the receipt.

Savory grits, biscuit French toast, and berries and biscuits. Unfortunately, my meal was slightly overcooked but the young man quickly made me a regular biscuit.

If you are the owners and care about community as much as your website says, take a look at your camera footage on August 11, 2026 between. 8:45 and 9:10am ish. Just the facts. We ordered and sat like everyone else. Received our food after the two groups behind us who ordered well after us got theirs. Most were Veterans so I appreciate that and would hope this was the reason. Once our food was dropped the server asked if there was anything else and I said I'd take a refill of coffee (empty). As I observed the room, the tables around us were getting really attentive service. Refills galore, conversation... I had to go to the counter to refill my coffee as I saw a server walk past our table and refill the cups at the window while ours remained empty. I got up, walked past all the servers and went to the counter where I got my first cup of coffee. After a while without anyone checking on us (again, all other tables were getting some really good 5 star service) I went to the counter to get a refill of water (empty) and a young girl who I overheard said she just graduated from high school stopped me and asked if I needed a refill. She was your bright spot. The rest of the staff just stood talking as u walked past them. It wasn't even busy. As I saw tables about to leave they were offered a cup of coffee to go. Thanked for coming in and probably would give 5 stars on a review. I made eye contact to the middle age female server and she quickly looked away. So did another young server who I saw refilling coffee. My previous review of here was 5 stars. I recommended coming here because this is our second time and my first was outstanding. Not playing the card, just the facts. We are the three Asians on the 4 top next to the booths by the kitchen entrance. Watch the entire service. I have a rule that if I really like a place I'd go back and even buy a shirt if available. I bought a shirt after my first visit but I'll holster the shirt. I'm huge on loyalty and sorry to say, this was lost. We left the cold, unwelcoming restaurant without any one of your staff saying a word. Not the type of place I'd return to. I hope this review is useful and hope this is a one off and I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. ***update*** The operations manager reviewed the video with the owner and quickly reached out to me directly. They agreed with my assessment and said they immediately addressed the issue with their staff. Doesn't change what happened but pleased to hear they care and will take corrective action when needed. They offered to refund my bill. I declined as I am just thankful they swiftly dealt with my concerns.

Upon arrival, we explained what had happened and asked if there was any way they had an opening. The host was incredibly understanding and sat us at their previously closed coffee bar. We were met by our waitress who was phenomenal- she got us a little candle and was honestly so engaging to talk to. The food was outstanding! So much so that I totally forgot to take a picture. My husband got a curried fish dish that was excellent. It had Smokey greens, black beans, and a full fish in a delicious curry sauce that I ended up mopping my fries in. I sprung for the burger that was so tall, my mouth could barely take a bite. The meat was juicy, and I cleared my plate. All of the cocktails were exceptional, and despite a rocky start to our night, the staff at Ronin managed to eventually find us a small table during an opening in reservations, which made it perfect for us. Ronin is farm to table and a huge supporter of local business which is a plus, not to mention their adorable restaurant is in a refurbished building, and the ambiance is exceptional for date nights. I would HIGHLY recommend Ronin to anyone headed to Downtown Bryan and thank you so much for turning our Valentine's Day around!

Mrs. K. loved her French Toast which was cooked properly and there was enough to go with us for snacking later. I demolished my breakfast.

It had been ages since I had been, and now as a gluten-free eater, I imagined just country fried steak, biscuits, and green beans. And while they do have these things, I was so happy that they had a quite diverse menu that I ate from with delight. It's not an exaggeration that Cracker Barrel ended up as the highlight of the trip amongst an onslaught of travel issues. The gift shop one walks through to get to the dining area was stuffed with odd but interesting things, and the dining area itself was spacious and heavily decorated, with a large array of windows letting in some sunshine. Our waitress Elena was young, bubbly, and not to be found without a smile on her face. My steak was perfectly cooked, although with a small bite or two of tough gristle, and my chicken was soooo tender. The broccoli had a great crunch and wasn't soggy, the mashed potatoes were hearty and tasted great without a drop of gravy. Their house salad was shockingly good and almost a full meal despite being a side. I also had a nice mimosa. I was glad to have my opinion turned around.
