Went again today for lunch with my daughter. Sat at bar again....maybe I am a bar fly but since I travel for work I generally prefer to eat at the bar. Alejandro was great today. While he earned 5 stars....so did our crispy chicken salads! Prices are the best around for such quality food and service read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Crispy chicken salad and homemade honey mustard dressing! - Comfort Food Near Me - Kissimmee, Florida

This is a place where you can take the family out and not spend your a lot of money. The appetizers and entree prices are super reasonable. One of my favorite items here is the honey butter croissants, a must try. Each person gets one for free. My main course I had salmon, broccoli and carrots. I'll say the Salmon was over cooked, broccoli was steamed very well so was the carrots. They say the chicken tenders here are good, but I didn't try them. Good customer service! read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Grilled Shrimp Alfredo Pasta - Comfort Food Near Me - Kissimmee, Florida

Cheddar's scratch your forehead kitchen. There are places I've been to that had worse service. The food was on par with places like Applebees. The ambiance was good and the restaurant was clean. After seven minutes, we put our order in on the electronic kiosk on the table for out appetizers. Our waiter didn't even acknowledge us for the first 10 minutes we were sitting there to which you then told us he was going to need a minute. Finally after 13 minutes we were able to get our order in for our drinks, just two lemonades. We chose to share a couple appetizers and order the croissants as an appetizer, not knowing that they come complementary at the start of your meal. When the waiter finally came with our drinks, he brought two croissants, and then a different server brought us the rest of our appetizers. Five minutes later he came by with two additional croissants and almost sneaking around us, placed them on the table, when I asked for those were for he said that the first ones that he gave us were the complementary ones, and that these were the two we had ordered with our advertisers on the kiosk... And are confused face is apparently didn't tell him that we were not expecting that and he immediately spot on the dime, and ran off back to the kitchen without giving us a chance to explain that we didn't want them. He didn't come back again tour table for another 10 minutes and that was only after we flagged him down with our hands and to get drink refills. Eventually, I chose to just pay at the kiosk at the kiosk wouldn't work. My wife getting frustrated got up to leave as she did so she passed by the entrance to the kitchen and saw him and said "he's gonna need help. It won't let him pay on the kiosk" and then turned around and left. Four minutes later, he arrived at my table, saw that I couldn't pay and told me to give him a second. A minute later he came back, and I tried again, and it finally worked.... Either this server was new or he's not a very good server. Everything else was about what I expected that is if expecting mediocre restaurant food with a nice atmosphere, and a 'not so good service' is what you expect. read more

Place is well kept and clean. Originally I was going to give a 1 star but the painkiller drink I had was great. I ordered a combo of sirloin steak and half rack of ribs. My wife ordered sirloin steak with fried shrimps. Both of us had medium rare steaks but my steak for some reason was chewy and hard to cut. My wifes steak was perfect. My half rack of ribs was also hard. I was expecting the bone to fall off the meat but it was the total opposite, hard to cut and ruff to chew. My wife's shrimps had to much bread and little shrimps. I don't think I'll go back again. Just sadden we couldn't have the best of both worlds on our food We always stick to the number 1 rule. Never sent food back just deal with it. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Painkiller drink with was great. - Comfort Food Near Me - Kissimmee, Florida

One of our favorite places to eat with the family. Been going there since it opened up. Would give it 5 stars if not for the ripped seating. The food is very good. LOVE LOVE LOVE their honey butter croissants - used to be you had to purchase but now they give one per person at their arrival. Their ribeye is very good. Broccoli casserole...yum! My boys love the Monte Cristo sandwiches - the bread tastes almost like a zeppole. Key West Chicken & Shrimp was my all-time favorite til they removed it from the menu, but now it's back! It used to be a budget-friendly place when kids were little and ate less :/ around $30+, now that everything has gone up and kids are grown it's more like $70-80. Still one of our fav's when we don't want to take the drive out to Texas Roadhouse. read more

Unfortunately a really bad experience. Had never been before and my fiancé suggested us to go there and that'll be the last time we go. Not to the fault of the waiter, but everything came out pretty slow and although he tried to make up for it by being super friendly which can only go so far. The ambiance of the restaurant was super loud but as we decided to go on a Friday night it's something you'd expect. Once the food finally came out was when the real issue came. I ordered a chicken wrap with fries, while my finance ordered a steak - it was quite clear that her steak stayed on a hot plate under the warm light for some time while they waited for my food to be ready as her fries looked old and over cook and the steak was obviously kept warm by the light. Bad experience all round unfortunately. read more

There food is amazing no complaints love it... I will definitely go and eat again and again

The food was awesome. It was plentiful and well cooked. There were six of us. Everybody loved it the waitress we had Unfortunately I cannot remember her name. She was very attentive to all six of us making sure we had everything we had ordered and that it was all done correctly. The restaurant was clean and well organized . We were seated right away and asked what beverages we wanted with our meal. Next time we are there in Florida we will definitely go back read more

Never again ... Cheddar's at Osceola Parkway Kissimmee, Florida. Waiter was nice, long wait for dinner tonight. But the manager on duty called a 16oz Steak "marbleized" with 12oz of fat as you can see in the picture They refused to acknowledge that 95% of the steak was fat. I wasn't looking for a discount. All I wanted was dinner and to eat great steak not fat. read more

After telling our party of 7 it would be a 35 minute wait, it was over an hour. Not a great way to start. Server came by the table, disappeared for 15 minutes, then came back with bread. All we want to do now is order and eat as it's nearly 8:30PM. They are busy with obviously not enough staff. Would not come here again. read more

Great location. The croissants are amazing and the food in general is very good. Always busy. We were a little disappointed that the hostess seemed disorganized when we went. We were told there was no wait but it took 10 minutes to seat us. But we enjoyed the food and usually do when we eat here. read more

Came here a few times and can't really complain about food or service. But my most recent visit my friend and I came in and was seated near the bar. The floor was very slippery near the bar and tables. That's a no no. Ordered the key west chicken and shrimp with Mac n cheese and the cheesy broccoli rice. My frozen margarita/sangria was a bit strong I couldn't finish it. The wait staff there is always awesome. Just need to work on the floors by the bar. read more

This place is AWESOME! There was way too much food for the price. I even stole some of my kids chicken tenders because it was the taste of real fresh chicken not frozen. Drinks were good, service was good, ambience was comfy and we shared the original burger I think. Glad we did, it was HUGE! Very tasty. Awesome place... a must go to place. They do make you wear masks , social distancing is taking place and hand sanitizers are there. My favorite, they have paper towels in the bathroom so instead of hand dryers I could use the paper towel to open the bathroom door again. read more

The service was excellent and environment was great for a family. Food quality was on par with the price. Definitely more of a family style restaurant with basic food options. The highlight was definitely the warm croissants with honey butter. We could have had a few more plates... burp read more

The food here was fantastic. Me, Wife, and kids loved it here. The waiter was very polite and kind to us. It is a close option to our house and we love it there. Be sure to order the cheese bites and cheese fries, they are delicious. read more

Food is great (better than the kirkman location), location is great, and cleanliness is there. Con: Everything seemed unorganized, not sure if they were short staffed during my last two visits but the bar tenders would forget my order. Waiters took a while to visit my table. One guest got up to get his own plate seeing it in the pass. Overall all employees seemed frantic, that's the only reason why I left out one star. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Citrus Miso Glazed Salmon - Comfort Food Near Me - Kissimmee, Florida

My friends were right...the food does remind me of homemade cooking. I had the lemon pepper chicken with Mac and cheese and the broccoli cheese casserole. I must admit I liked the casserole better. For dessert we tried the chocolate croissant bread pudding which was more like a caramel brioche in my opinion. Tasty no matter what you call it! The prices are extremely reasonable and you don't walk out feeling like a glutton. Variety on the menu is good also. If you're on a budget, this place won't break the bank. Only concern was the service. It took a while for anyone to take our order. Also many of them are not trained to sell gift cards. If the service was better, I would have given this place 5 stars. Overall it's a good place to eat and we will be back again to try new things! read more

Cheddar's was decent, but with the exception of their drinks, nothing special. They have the usual Chili's type food on their menu. I had the cheese fries and fried shrimp, which were good, but not great. However, their pain killer drink was huge and super yummy. There was a long wait time (40 minutes), but that was expected considering the area it's in. Service was good, the wait staff and hostess were all friendly and attentive. read more

Nice bar. Fancy drinks, if you like. I got the "lightly breaded" cornmeal white fish. Lightly breaded??? Hardly! it was super crusted (very crunchy if you like that: go for it!) . But false description. good coleslaw good baked potato (why did they put cheese on it w/o asking me?‍ read more

I hope we visit this place again for a better review and hope the management has changed for the restaurants benefit.

Typical good service, Was sat in the back room next to a ton of big parties so not much social distancing but food was delicious read more

After being seated, we waited 20 minutes without being greeted by the server. She walked by and we asked her if she could bring us our drinks. She said she was very busy and that we could go to another restaurant if we couldn't wait for her. Terrible service! read more

I love Cheddars! The food, drinks , prices and service are all great. It is definitely one of my fave restaurants. --------------- 6/20/18 The above is my typical experience at Cheddar's. Our experience 6/20 was an entirely different story. It was like if anything could go wrong, it did. It got to the point where all we could do was laugh. We were seated quickly, and our drink orders were taken almost immediately. Now here is where we start to go downhill- when my Painkiller was brought to the table, it was overflowing and when they placed it on the table it spilled on the table (creating a puddle underneath the menu) and all over my wrapped silverware. It also spilled onto my iPhone. We wiped it up as much as we could with the napkins we had, but then noticed there was even more under the menu so we asked for more napkins when the waitress came back. Even though she was aware of what the napkins were for, she came back dropped the napkins on the table and walked away. While we had no problem wiping it up ourselves, it was sticky and we were surprised she didn't offer to wipe it up with a wet rag. Next we ordered 3 appetizers (there were 3 Adults in our party, all separate checks) and when we received them we had to wait and ask for plates. When we placed our Entree orders, we asked if it could be delayed a little to give us time to eat the appetizers because there wouldn't be room on the table- she stated they had to be prepared so they wouldn't come right out. My daughter then ordered Honey Butter Croissants, when we received them the first thing we noticed is they were much darker than usual- basically burnt. We were then told the recipe had been changed and we were handed a survey. We were annoyed that this was not mentioned when we placed the order, which means that we were not receiving what we ordered and were used to but, we were still going to have to pay for it. The three of us tried them and didn't like them (the new recipe is AWFUL) - three croissants were left on that plate but, my daughter still paid for them. The waitress did check back to see if we liked the croissants and we advised that we did not- but again, although we were not satisfied and left 3 uneaten, we were still charged. Our entrees arrived while we were still eating the 3 appetizers- and we had to try to consolidate in order to make room for the entrees (all of our empty glasses were still on the table as well even though she brought us refills). I ordered the Country Fried Steak, which I was extremely disappointed with- as it was 80% breading and 20% meat- I did enjoy the corn and potatoes, however (which is mainly what she ate). Our friend ordered the Dijon Chicken which she was not pleased with as it had too much Dijon and she was not asked if she wanted gravy on her potatoes which SHE DID NOT but, got anyway. My daughter had Spasagna- which was excellent, as usual. Now comes dessert- our friend ordered chocolate cake, and my daughter asked for the Apple Crisp which she loves and was one of our main reasons for going. After about 10 minutes, the waitress returned and was cleaning up our other empty dishes and then looked at my daughter and said "Oh! We don't have any Apple Crisp, we are out of Apple Crisp" as if this was an afterthought for her. As disappointed as we were, we said we would try the Monster Cookie. Our friends Chocolate Cake arrived first- and we were surprised at how huge it was (it was DELICIOUS, NO COMPLAINTS). Next arrives our "MONSTER" Cookie, first thing we noticed was how small it was. The second thing we noticed was how BURNT it was. My daughter tried to take a few bites, with the ice cream, to see if that would cover the burnt taste...it failed miserably. The cookie was almost black. By the time the waitress returned to check on us, mind you the restaurant was not busy, the ice cream was almost completely melted and covering the cookie. When we advised her that we didn't want the cookie, because it was burnt, she looked and said "Okay- do you want another" ... my daughter said no thank you. Our friend and I did ask if we could get some water, I didn't receive any refills throughout the whole meal. We received and paid our checks- mind you there was plenty of delay between our server's visits to our table and again they were not busy. Our friend and I had to ask for our water again- and finally received it AFTER we paid our bills. I am not one who complains- but, this is definitely not the Cheddars experience that we are used to. While the waitress was extremely nice, she was very nonchalant and unapologetic for all the things that went wrong. The other thing is, the service was very slow causing our visit to be 2 1/2 hours. read more

Updated review ... they have redeemed themselves in my eyes. Yesterday's trip to Cheddar's went perfectly. Server was attentive and professional. Food came out quickly, hot, fresh, and delicious. A wonderful and relaxing dinner. I REALLY want to try their desserts but I can never even finish my dinner ------------------------------------------- Today was my fourth trip to checkers and what a total disappointment We ordered the country fried chicken which I've gotten twice before and loved. We requested the bread and gravy on the side not under the food. When the food came out the bread was under the chicken. Most of the food was cold. We sent it back , they gave us a free salad to make up for it New food came out and the potatoes were still cold and there was no gravy. and again the bread was under the meat. Before I realized the potatoes were cold the server said he'd bring gravy. I told him he was also bringing new Texas toast since twice we specifically asked for it on the side not under other food. He looked at me like I was stupid. Finally agreed. The toast cane out totally burnt. Then I tasted the potatoes and had to call someone over again. Took the manager quite a while to come back by then everything was cold. Sent it back and now I guess I'm going McDonald's for dinner Went from excited to depressed. Does anyone care? Not re ----------------------------------- Today marks my third trip to Cheddars. My niece and I have tried a few different things and all were delicious. Our go to appetizer is the honey butter croissants. They are to die for As far as entrees, we've tried the chicken pot pie, lemon pepper chicken, and southern fried chicken, as well as the potato soup. All were served hot, fresh, and delicious. One die note, mist chicken pit ours are thick and creamy. This one is not. It has a wonderful flavor, loaded with chicken,but the sauce inside is not thickened. For side dishes the broccoli cheese casserole is great. Mash potatoes are made with the skins and are great. The corn off the Cobb definitely has that fresh vibrant flavor My niece was very impressed with the $5 margarita Haven't tried the dessert yet but really want to As far as the service. It's efficient but the servers aren't very friendly or personable. But, hey, we get our good timely and hot. read more

Great food made from scratch and it shows. The breading on the chicken tender is immaculate. The steak was done exactly how I asked and the croissants were so buttery and soft. The food never disappoints at this restaurant no matter which location it's a go too for me. read more

Normally I would tell you to make sure you get there right when they open or shortly there after because very rarely have I ever driven by and they're not be a line out the door. That was different for us from this past Sunday, we literally walked in, they asked us how many and we sat down immediately. Our server was OK, not the most attentive but she wasn't horrible. She took our drink orders and our starters. You get a complementary selection of the buttered croissants.. I was not a fan of the butter glaze whatsoever. For starters we choose spinach dip and cheese curds. Wow those cheese curds were greasy. My husband got a shrimp meal and he really enjoyed it. I ordered The chicken tenders and they reminded me a little bit of Chili's crispy chicken tenders.. I feel like there is more crisp to them than actual tender. If you're looking for a place to go with huge portion sizes of dessert this is the place to go.. we didn't order one just because we were stuffed but the two tables around us each got the cake with ice cream and it is literally big enough to feed a table of four. Before pregnancy, I loved ordering their baked potato soup. They also have some really good strong alcoholic beverages. Basically you can't go wrong with cheddars and with how it's all made from scratch is an added touch! read more

I am writing this review mostly to highlight our waitress. Sadly, I do not know her name but shoutout to her! She was incredibly helpful in helping me select a meal (which can be difficult given my dietary restrictions) and she was very friendly the entire time. The food was tasty and very filling. Still, we opted for dessert and oh my goodness, was it tasty! We had the Crisp a la Mode and it was so good that I didn't even know what to do! read more

Having heard good things about the Cheddar's chain in general, my husband and I recently had lunch at the Kissimmee Loop location. The stony dining area was homelike and cozy despite its minimalistic decor. We started out with the complimentary croissants with honey butter drizzle. My mouth is watering right now as I recall how these delicately delectable pastries melted on the tongue. The Caesar salad that came with my lunch combo was HUGE and filling. The loaded potato soup was "perfect" in both taste and temperature according to my husband. We both had the Mom's Meatloaf for our entree. Coated with a sweet and tangy bourbon glaze, the meatloaf was the best both of us had had in a long time. We are looking forward to the grand opening of their new location in the Maingate area of West 192. read more

I can't talk about how awesome this restaurant is! They had awesome specials going on when all we could do was takeout. I hope I brought them a lot of customers through word of mouth. And the food here is awesome!!!!!!!!!!! I love the chicken fingers and the honey biscuits and the cheesy rice casserole is a must! Definitely patronize this buisness it's worth it! read more

this is the only location I've been to since I've been in this state and they were just as good as the one I remember from Illinois. They're a bit of a distance from me but I do drive through the area on occasion and I do love their food. A new location is opening much closer to where we live and I am very much looking forward to going there with some frequency. They do some really good comfort food and some great burgers. read more

My first time here and I was not disappointed. Food was amazing and my server was awesome. I didn't get a chance to take a pic of their soft, fluffy, buttery croissant since we ate it so fast but it was so delicious. Ordered the ribs and tender. The ribs fell off the bone, they were so tender and made to perfection. The tenders were buttermilk juicy and the perfect amount of crispy on the outside. I highly recommend this place. read more

My first time trying this place, we wanted to try something new. The waitress was really nice but service was very slow. They put cheese in my baked potato, she tried to correct. I refused because the service was so slow and I didn't want to wait 20 minutes for a baked potato. No refills either Never returning read more

The name implies that the food is super fresh and delicious. But patrons beware, the quality of the food makes you wonder what they consider "from scratch". First glance, the restaurant looks pretty appealing. It's got a modern decor and looks very nice from the outside. We were greeted warmly and were told it would be five minutes for a table. Took fifteen minutes instead. Part of me thinks they said that just so we wouldn't leave but I digress. Once seated we were met by the only highlight of the restaurant, our waiter Ray. He was very upbeat and kind. Great customer service. I hope he leaves this place one day and moves to a better restaurant cause once the food started coming, that's when things went down hill. We started with the Triple Sampler which seemed to be a popular appetizer. Um it sucked. Plain and simple. It came with some barely warm cheese bites, chicken tenders that tasted like they came from McDonald's, and the Potato Skins looked like they had been sitting outside. All of this food tasted like fast food, if that. So hoping for an improvement, we put all our chips on the dinners. She ordered Steak and Shrimp with Green Beans, Rice and Corn. Myself, I had the 20oz Rib Eye with Rice and French Fries. A quick note: When we were being seated, on the way there I noticed that the Fries were Steak Fries. A personal favorite from my up north Diner adventures, I ordered these fries with that in mind. When my dinner came, the Fries were crinkle fries. The server told me they ran out those fries and got these as replacements. Um, isn't everything supposed to me made from scratch? Red Flag Alert... Anyways, back to the meals. The green beans tasted HORRIBLE. As if they were drenched in water overnight, then taken out and put in the microwave. The corn looked like it came from a can and the rice was definitely some generic nasty box rice. The steak was okay but the sauteed mushrooms on it where way too salty. Only reason this place gets two stars is because our server Ray was super nice and the steak was decent and pretty cheap (20 bucks for a 20 oz). I do not recommend this place at all and seriously question the validity of the "scratch" method they claim. read more

I had a great lunch at Cheddars! We arrived and were seated right away in a spacious booth, and then promptly greeted by our server, who was very sweet and attentive the entire meal! One of the nice things about this establishment is the menu is varietal and the food is always fresh (and a great drink menu for excellent prices too!) Today I got the Dijon Chicken & Mushrooms, with Mac and cheese and black beans. The main components of my dish, as I said earlier were hot and fresh, but the sides a little less so. Our server noticed I hadn't finished my whole meal and offered a to-go box without me having to ask for one! The others in my party has the salmon strawberry salad, and the smokehouse burger. They all thoroughly enjoyed their food as well! I had to get to work so I couldn't stay for dessert, but hope to go back for a sundae! read more
