I have only been once, but was told to get the chicken wrap. It was pretty good and my drink was strong. But our waitress wasn't the best. Maybe it was because we came an hour before closing, but I'm a waitress and know what that's like. But you still get paid to be there and we tip very good‍ but she must have forgotten about the drinks we ordered because they took well over 30 minutes to get to us and the restaurant wasn't busy. Poor service but food wasn't horrible. I'd be willing to give it another try! read more

This is a really nice restaurant. It's a nice break from the big franchises like apple bees, chilies etc. The portions are great and super cheap. The food was so good and portions so big I thought it was going to be super expansive but it was the complete opposite. Great food at a great place. I can't wait to go back read more

Incredibly irritating when the appetizer and the main course come out together. Service was horrific. Food was cold. Bathroom was a mess. Never come here. read more

This place started out promising when you see the decore, but hideously slow service, an understaffed bar and mediocre entrees strongly suggest you spend your money elsewhere. read more

Horrible service! On my first visit, we waited 20 min for a server to help us at our table after we were seated. We ordered a bottle of wine, she brought it to our table, set it down and asked us if we needed glasses?!?! After telling her that we did, in fact, need glasses, she brought us iced tea glasses for our wine. I had to ask for wine glasses. During my second visit, I went alone, and sat at the bar. The bartender did not know how to make a Manhattan when ordered, so I changed my drink, still horrible. I ordered food, and it was served with no silverware... Same situation for the woman sitting beside me. Also, a woman had waited at the bar for a drink and was ignored for 10 minutes. Neither visit was during a busy time period and there was plenty of staff around on both occasions. read more

Came here for dinner celebration with some friends. The environment is GREAT and fun. The wait wasn't too bad. We waited 30 -40 minutes for dinner and when seated our dinner and drink order was taken fairly quickly. I was satisfied with everything thus far but then came dinner. I ordered a salad to come before dinner and when dinner arrived (20-25 min later) they brought out the salads. The waitress stood there and rolled her eyes as she said "sorry about that". Sorry? Ok well that really doesn't cover it. They're not that busy as compared to many other nights I've seen them. On a positive note they didn't charge us for any salads. At least there's that. One so so dinner won't stop me from coming back but the check reflected my opinion of service this evening. read more

My favorite item is the pecan salad. I know, I know, its a salad...how good can it be...I'm not really a "salad" lady, but its so amazing. They have a pretty average menu, burgers, steaks, seafood, etc. The onion rings are to die for and the chocolate cake is totally worth the calories. Definately a deal for the price of the food. read more

I had the baby back ribs and shrimp. The ribs were a little too overcooked but the shrimp was great. The buttery croissants are awesome! Luckily we missed the rush hour because this place gets packed. Overall, I'm sure I'll be back again to try something new on the menu. read more

Went here with family, while visiting in Killeen. I expected it to be crowded, but dang and the wait...double dang!! 20-30 minute wait to be seated...not bad, for the Sunday after church crowd. Order drinks after the waitress arrive which was pretty quick...now the wait begins.....Tick Tock....Tick Tock,,,,Tick Tock...ok, almost 45minutes later food arrives and let's hope it was well worth the wait!!....Good Job Cheddar's, food was good and the service from the waitress was even better...very pleasant young lady...she continued to check on us, because she knew the wait was gonna be long....we had no idea....lol read more

Party of 7, two right "off the boat" from Korea. This place made America look bad. Wrong order brought out three times. The first wrong order easily took 45 min to receive. But I must say that after telling management about our service we were Compt for our meals. Thats probably the only reason I gave them a star. Anyways, the food wasn't what I would have expected considering the ambiance. Floors and tables were some what clean. Maybe they were busy IDK. Doesn't matter though. I will not be returning. read more

Started as a usual dinner date with my wife, the waiter (Jeremy) seemed anxious to take our order, but kept trying to suggest sell rather then listen to what we wanted. We wanted 2 sweet Teas, but he insisted we had a flavored tea, so my wife settled with peach. Floor was rather unclear with wet spots. When the waiter came back for our entree, he still insisted on different items rather then what we had wanted. I get the bigger the bill, bugger the tip, but when it's suggestion after suggestions it's rather feeling forced. We didn't take long to order either so I don't understand he need for a rush of suggestions. The Santa Fe spinach dip was delicious. My wife had a house salad and she was excited it came with a honey-glazed croissant. I ordered a 14oz Ribeye, with mashed potatoes and corn if the cob. I wanted sweet baby carrots but they were out. My wife got chicken strip Parmesan. She enjoyed a few bites before she was just ready to grab a to-go container and find another place to enjoy our date night. I will add I was shocked that I was asked if I wanted A1 for my ribeye. A great steak like a ribeye shouldn't need steak sauce, but I do know everyone has their own preferences. Perhaps Cheddar's is not as confident in their steak as they are for their chicken. read more

This is one of the few restaurants in Killeen that I regularly eat at. The experience has been consistent with every visit: great tasting and well prepared food, excellent wait staff and a great atmosphere. I have never waited long to give our order and receive our food. I cannot think of anything negative to say about this place. read more

After requesting the Blackened Pork Tenderloin with the Mango Sauce on the side. I received my order with Mango Sauce slathered all over it. The waiter stated, "if you would like it resolved it will take 20 minutes for a brand new order". I decided after the 45 minute initial wait to get a table it wasn't worth my time. After I state the issue to my waitress, she promptly brings the manager over to combat the situation! The manger stated no problem we will take it in the back to power wash my tenderloin off and grill it! Awesome solution and sounds like the flavor would be more amazing! Right? Nope I decided the best option was to send it back without that solution. The manager didn't offer to comp me for another item instead decides to up sell me with another fabulous entree! HAHA No Thanks! Sadly, the manager leaves with a big fail! Disappointed she decides to come back with it washed off and boxed up to make amends. I guess our family dog can eat it now. This place really sucks at customer service! I still believe I was part of a Saturday Night Live skit! Stay away! See the photo I placed of my washed off boxed tenderloin! read more

This place has really stepped up from our last encounter the staff has really cared about there Costumers, also free complimentary bread as soon as we get drinks, excellent to see a restaurant care read more

Food was really good. Service was a little slow.

The honey butter croissants are to die for!!! The service was excellent, which is hard to come by. My youngest son is a picky eater, he loves the menu, overall awesome!!! read more

The service was really bad. Waited 20 mins after being seated and had to ask for service. One meal was brought out and we were told the other meal had to be redone and it still came out wrong. The food in general was not the same as I had in Arlington a few years ago. Store bought croutons, wilted lettuce and hot food like soup was cold. The bread on my husbands club sandwich was too hard to eat. Will not be back to any Cheddars again. read more

Ok here goes one star is the rating because it won't go any lower. After waiting 45 minutes for my ribeye and broccoli casserole I received the most mediocre steak ever over cooked by strip that's as passed off off as another cut 30%of what I received was marbling (fat) the broccoli casserole was nothing but cheese sauce and A piece of broccoli no rice and for the manager to come out and say she will get with the vendor is completely unacceptable this restaurant is consistent it always is a disappointment if it weren't for the fact my family likes it I would never come here again read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - 30% marbling on a ribeye is just unacceptable - American Near Me - Harker Heights, Texas

We had dinner here last night and the food was great as always! The service was good and friendly. I would recommend the grilled shrimp and chicken with pineapple pico covered in bourbon sauce. The meal is healthy enough and the price is perfect. read more

We ate here for the first time and really enjoyed it. It was a pretty restaurant, our food was awesome, the portions were good, the prices were great. But best of all was out server, Kimberly. She gave us great suggestions and was just plain amazing at what she does. She was everything you hope your server will be. Smiling, friendly and skilled. Thanks for a great night, Cheddars. We'll definitely be back! read more

Excellent service from our waitress Lisa that was very attentive and was very helpful with making our decision on what to eat. I ended up getting the 8oz stake and my wife got the salmon. The food was very delicious and she made sure my drink was never empty which I loved. Thanks to the Chefs and to Lisa, you guys nailed it ! read more

Service, atmosphere, food ( ribs, chips with cheese beef mix dip, ) prices, painkiller beverage, all good. I almost want to go right now and catch a movie after. read more

I love the food here, but the service at the bar is below average (probably the worst in the area honestly). I request Frances as my server when I go because I am guaranteed an attentive and personable server. Frances has never disappointed and goes above and beyond to make our experience great. read more

This place is always busy but it's worth the wait! The restaurant is extremely clean, friendly and attentive service, to top it off cheap but quality food and drinks! It's hard to recommend just one item because everything we have tried from soups, salads, appetizers, entrees, and desserts have been perfect. read more

I've been here about 4 or 5 times since being in Killeen and everytime.. & I am not exaggerating.. Every time we have had an issue with the waitresses.. From how we were greeted at the door.. How when we walked up to the podium where they are suppose to ask "how many" and have had to say "excuse me" because the workers were busy in a conversation with each other.. While taking us to a table stopping and conversations with other workers.. Like who does that?? Or the most common waitress getting our orders right.. But when the food comes out all is forgiven but not really.. Love their ribs, Cajun pasta and Their signature drinks .. The place is always dim and calm.. Relaxing in a sense.. they just need to hire new people with better people/service skills.. I will never return to the Killeen location read more

Very decently priced appetizers, entrees, drinks, and desserts. Their chicken tenders are delicious, best i've ever had. The ribs are good, a little too much sauce on it for me but the meat was nice, tender, and moist. I love the ambiance in there and service was good. read more

All I can say is HORRIBLE! Years ago this place was great now I can't say the same. Mudslide didn't even have the chocolate drizzle around the cup, tasted like ice and a drop of chocolate was so thick I couldn't even drink it all cause it took so long to melt even after sitting there hours. Food didn't come out hot. Pina colada was also very thick. Service was the only good part about the whole experience. read more

Today was great! Had the Smokehouse Burger and wife had the Bacon Cheeseburger -- we were both in love with the burgers. Had onion rings as the side. Overall the food was GREAT! read more

This place is great! My first time going and I was quite pleased. Dinner for two with drinks and dessert, under $30 and did I mention it was good! Do yourself a favor and visit ASAP. read more

I really enjoyed our lunch here! We decided to stop by before getting some errands done and I am glad we did. It was a Monday around 2PM. We were sorted quickly and our waiter arrived to take out drink menus. I mentioned I had never been to a Cheddar's before and he gave me the lowdown on what makes a Cheddar's....well, Cheddar's! I liked that he was involved and didn't seem to just want to get our order and be done with us. He saw me eyeing the drink menu and asked if I wanted one, I said I was just browsing it to see what they had. I thought it was thoughtful that he asked if I was going to be having a drink or not. Most places will not think twice to ask. To start, we had the sampler appetizer. The nachos are mandatory and you can choose two others to accompany them. My guy went with the chicken tenders and the cheese bites. Both so good! The chicken tenders are huge but delicious. The cheese bites were amazing. I could have sat that and just ate the appetizer had I known they were so good. The nachos were tasty as well. They came topped with ground beef, cheese, a little chopped tomato, a few jalapeños (I'll ask for extra next time) and a side of sour cream. For our main course we both ordered burgers. He had the smokehouse burger but omitted the tomatoes and onion straws (he's so picky). I had the jalapeño burger. I didn't try his but he seemed to really enjoy it. Mine was delicious! The burger was a perfect juicy consistency. And the flavor was great. The fried jalapeños on top with the chipotle mayo was amazing. I could have used even more jalapeños (not fried) on top of the rest for even more spice! But the spiciness it had was perfect and not too much to overpower the taste of the burger. I recommend Cheddar's over the other fast food chains like Applebee's, chilis or Fridays. Cheddar's has great food and great prices. I look forward to coming back. We had no issues with our waiter or any other staff member. Everyone was friendly and great. I will not hesitate to come back to this location! read more

So I'm from Fort Lauderdale Florida and we have this restaurant there as well but this place right here food was well seasoned !!!! I loved it and the waiter was awesome !!!! Wouldn't mind going again read more

The food here is spectacular when it's hot. The wait time is an average of 25-30 minutes, which is normal for this military town. The service staff, is the only thing I have a problem with here. The waitresses on many occasions are very slow, often get order wrong, and don't seem to care much when they do get something wrong. read more

So the food isn't that bad due to their low prices. They just added BBQ to their menu & it's not half bad. I loved their pulled pork sliders. If you want to get wasted on a budget, this is definitely the place. The last couple times, I was only there to take advantage of their 3.99 margaritas. What can I say, I love cheap margaritas. :) read more

For a chain resturant, it's got some good stuff. I've been a big fan of their chicken pot-pie and a friend recently introduced me to chicken and waffles. This location has some really good wait staff as well. read more

Got to the restaurant at 9:00 pm. The place half empty and we waited to be seated for 5 min. Once on our table we witnessed an employees clean the blinds adjacent to a table with customers. Our waiter/waitress ( a certified trainer) greeted us and took our order what seemed to be somewhat of a rush. After waiting for around 25 minutes or so our food arrived and it was then when we were told they were out of some of the side items we've ordered 25 minutes before. Once we were informed we switched our order and then that also came short. Decided to order a to go water when we paid our bill and not even that was provided. Services have gone south in this locale. read more

Standard stuff,nothing special really.Nothing bad either,about half a step ahead of an Applebees or Fridays.

I'm going to give it a half. My boyfriends pasta was delicious. But my baked spasagna wasn't good at all. It was over cooked, and looked and tasted like it was rubber. It's like a bundle of nasty noodles then they put sauce on it. Every other meal I have liked. I would highly recommended their spinach dip. But stay away from that one dish.. read more

Zero stars. They never give me exactly what I order. If I order a meat free dish, that means meat is NOT supposed to be in it. Horrible!

My husband and I just moved here and we are absolutely hooked on this place! The texas cheese fries are the bomb! Also, our waiter, Angel was great! Best waiter I have yet to see! read more

New Year's Eve afternoon visit was awful! Waited over 30 minutes for a table because one of us was in a wheelchair. After finally being seated it took 15 minutes before a waitress acknowledged us and brought us drinks. It took another 40 minutes to get our food and it wasn't even hot. Good was mediocre and disappointing. read more
