    Signature Soup - Baked Potato Soup
    Elisa M.

    Cheddars is always a fun spot to grab a bite to eat. I will say that at this location the bar can get a little rowdy, so if you are looking for a peaceful meal, don't sit in the bar area. On this evening, I was looking for something easy on my stomach. I'm not a soup person, but hands down any day if the week, I'll have a bowl of the potato soup with the honey butter croissants. It's flavorful, filling and just yummy. I usually get a salad, the monticristo, chicken tenders or chicken fried steak but like I said, I was looking for something to calm my belly and this definitely did the job.

    The beef jerky I got from here

    Worst restaurant customer service. We got here at 5 pm and still at 7:30 waiting. Food and drinks took 58min to be at the table. The food was terrible and no sense of urgency.

    Salmon and salad $12.99 not worth it.  Grilled Salmon.

    The service was slow and the food was bad. I tried the non-homestyle chicken pot pie and over cooked and unseasones broccoli. Sent it back. Ordered the salmon and salad. The food came so late that I requested the salad be put in a Togo box. The food presentation was lazy. They need to rethink that entry for that price. I do not plan to eat there again. I got food at home.

    Dirty sliver-ware

    I have a very rude waiter honestly my experience was totally ruined by the horrible customer service . James H served us. My ice also have an uncomfortable amount of dirt in it drinks were flat and I could a hair in my scone. Silverware was also dirty.

    Wisconsin Cheese Bites $9.  Enough for 4

    Another exciting review just for you! We normally visit during the lunch hour, but our daily routine has changed a bit. Honestly, my husband loves Cheddars. I just like to see our best manager, Lisa, here just to chat and have fun. So today, we came at 6ish and the only seating was in the general restaurant area. Ok. We just wanted to get out and again, he loves this place. So, I focus on service and food. We aren't rushed. We were given the pleasure of being sat in Jasmine's area. If I could tell you and make you realize that Jasmine is one of the best servers we have had ever in any outings, you might catch the itch to visit. Sweet, funny, attentive and everything that makes a night worth going out worth while. Hubby had chicken tender platter with red beans and rice and corn. I had a veggie plate. The salad was subpar, but I don't mind. Don't eat a lot so I just ate my broccoli cheese casserole and carrots. Brought the potatoes home for my kids. Had a cheddar bit appetizer which was just ok. It was a family night for sure. Based off Jasmine's service, we will seek her out again. BRAVO JASMINE. Managers need to give kudos and spotlights to employees who go above and beyond. Grow your people. It's contagious.

    I haven't been to Cheddar's in a while & I was pleasantly surprised! The fish was fresh and not fishy at all, the veggies were good and that bread is delicious.

    This was my first time ever to visit and find at a Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen. We arrived as the restaurant opened for business for the day. We were promptly greeted and seated a a both. Our server was Ms. Shamekia, with a bubbly personality and warm smile. She served out drinks and took our order and served us honey butter croissants. We had the chips and chips $9.49 and Dijon chicken and mushrooms on a bed of rice with two sides, $14.79. The food was very tasty and good size portions. So overall I had good experience for my first time visit. I will be back again. Hope to see you there.

    This was the worse Cheddars ever, rude servers, manager doesn't care. Food could have been better. It's becoming more like a hang out.

    Interesting place Mickle's. VERY high energy ownership with exceptional quality Gumbo, red beans…read moreand rice and fried catfish and still, in this current economy, fairly modest prices. The Cajun Kitchen has been here in the Red Bird area of Oak Cliff for 10 years and this was our first visit. Only open M - F from 11 - 5:30p, this is a busy place. Nearly everything is cooked to order. The Gumbo was terrific. I like mine with okra and peppers and onion that I can SEE and it didn't have that, but their smooth spicy dark roux was delicious. I counted 6 large perfectly cooked shrimp in my pint of Gumbo with some diced chicken and sliced sausage and little bits of ham. I also like garlic bread. But honestly, it's hard to be too picky with something this good! Pint - $10.99 Next time, I'll just get it to go and do what I want to it at home. Lol. We also had the posted special - the Catfish Special for $10.99 The Catfish is some of the best that I've had in awhile! The cornmeal is seasoned to perfection, then the fish is fried to perfection and gently cradled on a slice of wheat bread. Um hm. Wheat bread. OMG. Two perfect pieces were served with some AWESOME red beans and rice. I just wasn't feeling fries and a substitution was made for the most glorious red beans and rice! So very good. A can of soda or bottle of water is included. Whole pickled jalapeños are available for 59 cents each. Yes! Have to have some of those, too. I stuffed myself and then took the rest home. As did my husband. For whatever the dining room may have lacked in ambiance, it more than made up in a good time. The A/C was good, the tables were comfortable and the service was friendly, kind and helpful. There's plenty of parking. They have to go and pick up spaces for food out front. BTW There's both baked and fried fish and chicken which sounds amazing. I hope to try both!

    It was ok. It is dark inside. But I love the sit in your car and order and they bring it out to you.read more

The smoke from the kitchen basically consumed the dining area and was very irritating. It eventually dissipated after a while, but I wouldn't recommend infants in this environment. After our party was seated, it took 15-20 min before our waiter greeted us and provided water; that was a bit annoying. After we got our orders in, things were smooth sailing from there. We were a large party and our waiter did a pretty good job at managing us and all of our requests. Food: they do not waste time bringing the food out. Most of our orders came out within 10 minutes! I ordered the Short Rib (unfortunately not pictured). It was hot, tender, and seasoned well....very good. It came on a bed of rice and some type of sauce. I was not a fan of either. The rice seemed uncooked and the sauce was too much and very liquid. It drowned the rice and practically made it soupy. I would have been fine with just the short rib. I also ordered a side of black eyed peas... also not a fan. It was undercooked and I didn't love whatever seasoning was used to prepare it. Other items I tried: Fries, Cornbread, Yams, and Soul Rolls. These were all tasty, specifically the soul roll. It came out crispy, hot, and stuff proportionately. I could take every bit of what was inside. It's definitely a must try.

The service was excellent, the smoky dry ice upon arrival was a hit along with the warm towels to clean our hands. The chef even walked around greeting guests. The restaurants decor is classic cotton club era, cute and classy but also has tvs mounted playing classic shows. The ambiance is casual. The menu prices could be adjusted downward but it was a nice experience. I'd recommend if you're in the mood for soul food. The sweet potato cornbread was the best!
