    Cheddars is a restaurant that we frequent quite often as it is close to our home and fairly reasonable price. And I'm not sure if it is the lack of workforce or combination of lack of workforce and attitude that the customer service seems to be going away. Went to dinner at cheddar's on a Thursday around 630PM we sat for 20 minutes before someone came to the table to even take a drink order. Our waitress simply walked and up and "what y'all wanna drink?" As we waited for her to return, we enjoyed the ambiance. The music was great. Our waitress took our order, brought us some amazing croissants and we didn't see her return for another 18 minutes. We ordered an appetizer of cheese fries. Before they arrived enough time had passed that a waitress from across the restaurant came over as she saw needed refills. She refilled our drinks as well as the table next to ours and delivered our appetizer. Our waitress popped by to say she was sorry, the kitchen was busy and she was helping. On to the main course - I had a pot pie and my oh my! Disgusting won't even cover it. I took one bite and it was sour and rotten tasting. I had my husband taste it without sharing my thoughts and he spit it out as well. Our waitress was able to get it taken off the bill. Which we were gracious of. The idea of going to eat and being taken care of, having a good meal just seems to be lost these days.

    They said 15-20 min wait was more like 5 ..... That's just the beginning. Great service very attentive. Great food. Absolutely recommend and will defiantly come back. Thanks for a great experience. Zan

    Stopped in for early NYE dinner on trek back to Louisville Ky from St. Louis, MO. We were seated quickly, our waitress was friendly, and our appetizer & drinks arrived quickly. Our entrees were both good, lots of food (too much to finish) at a great price point. Drinks were promptly filled throughout our time dining. We don't frequent chain eateries very often but are glad we stopped by Cheddar's for an early meal at a fair price.

    The food at Cheddars is reasonably priced and the food is decent but our last two visits have been lacking in customer service in every way. Upon entering the establishment there was nobody at the host stand. We waited for ten minutes as a few employees would make eye contact and walk by without so much as acknowledging us. I was fine with going elsewhere but one in our party really wanted to eat here. We literally had to force the issue to get seated. It was 4 pm on a weekday so it wasn't like they were busy with other guests, that I could understand. We could see employees talking to one another. The food was decent and I've always appreciated their very reasonable prices, but it will be a long time before I desire to dine here again. There are many other restaurant options in the area. Management needs to make changes to the way the treat their guests.

    45 minute wait for food. Had to go get my own drink refill. Food mediocre. I'll not be back.

    Excellent fried shrimp with two sides. As usual, the meal was cooked perfectly and arrived piping hot.

    Amazing drinks, food, atmosphere and service. From Sara to the staff, everyone is watching and…read moremaking sure you have the best experience watching. It's absolutely amazing.

    Freight House in Paducah is worth the drive from Nashville (and if you are a fan of quilting, this…read morecity is for you). We showed up right at opening, five o'clock, and there was already a long line of people waiting to get in. Make a reservation. I'm glad we did. We had a party of four and was seated at a low top that had a view of the kitchen. Lively open space with an open kitchen you can see both the cook line and the prep area. The cornbread was the unexpected standout of the entire meal. Mildly sweet, savory, light and fluffy all the way through. I was not expecting a side dish to steal the show, but it did. We also ordered the double stuffed burrata, and the bread it came with deserves its own mention. Crisp, lightly toasted, with just a touch of char. It paired beautifully with the creamy burrata and the accompaniments on the plate. For my entree I went with the grilled Caesar salad and added shrimp. It ended up being the perfect call. The portion was generous, the shrimp addition made it feel like a real meal. The romaine had this excellent crisp char on it that added so much. The dressing was heavenly. One of the best Caesar dressings I have had in a while. My favorite parts of the night had nothing to do with what was on my plate. We got to watch chef Sara Bradley working the kitchen with her team during service, and it was clear why this place has the reputation it does. I'd love to come back and try the prix fixe tasting menu next time. Overall this was a great experience from start to finish. And a must stop or destination when driving through KY.
