    Chips and queso dip, yummy!  The other one is our plates the one with the salad is mine.
    Allie S.

    This was our second time going here giving it a second chance from the not good last visit. The food was good a hot this time, we both got the country fried steak with mashed potatoes n gravy and then I got the side salad also. The steaks were a good size with a fairly light breading but just a little too much breading for me, made it look bigger, but the amount on the mashed potatoes was a small scoop a little disappointed in that and the gravy was hot but it need a little more seasoning so I sprinkled a little salt and pepper on it which fix that. So I am going to bump up the stars a little but still not a 5 star. Oh and as always the chips and queso dip were awesome the salsa is nasty in my opinon and the bread rolls are good but just reminds me of eating a glazed doughnut not for me for lunch or dinner. The waitress was great this time, sorry don't remember her name but she was on top of it with drink refills and stopping and checking on us. Granted they weren't real busy when we were there today but was a better experience this time. As before the place is nice good sized booths and pretty good for parking, will go back again as long as it's stay this good.

    The food is good and their prices are extremely reasonable. They still bring out the croissants with honey butter for free which is nice. I haven't been here in a year or more and I was surprised at how low their prices are compared to other similar restaurants. Everyone has raised their prices so much. It's a solid choice to take the family out to dinner but if you are a foodie like me you will probably be disappointed. It's very basic and the cook doesn't pay attention to detail.

    Food was really good. Service was good. Came to visit some friends of mine and came to eat at Cheddar for my friends bday. Ambiance was good.

    Cheddars is usually a hit or miss for me because I've probably gone over 50 times since I was a kid. Sometimes there service isn't great but also sometimes it's really good. You really don't know what you will get because there have also been times where the croissants are burnt and cold. But usually the food is good and it's very comfortable and clean inside.

    Service was fast & friendly, Brittany D did a fantastic job!! The food was excellent as always & the Peach Tea was very refreshing & the dessert was fantastic. The atmosphere was quiet & conversationally friendly.

    We found Heirloom on Yelp and were excited to give it a try, but the experience ended up being just…read moreaverage. I ordered the burger without the bun or fries, and it was so overly salty that I struggled to finish it. My wife had the CACIO de PEPE, which tasted quite different from what we're used to, and the pasta was overcooked for our liking. My brother-in-law ordered the fish tacos, which were easily the standout dish at the table. My sister's chicken cesar salad was decent but nothing particularly memorable. The restaurant itself feels a bit unexpected for a rural setting, which may help explain its strong ratings. For me, though, it's not a place I'd go out of my way to visit again--more of a "fine if someone else suggests it" kind of spot.

    Our first adventure here at Heirloom. We love coming to Midway! The Main Street is a charmer…read more Plenty to shop, eat, and drink here for sure! Heirloom did not disappoint! The atmosphere is super cozy and we felt welcomed from our first steps in. We were warmly greeted by the hostess and we met Michaela who took fabulous care of us for the evening! We settled in to a couple of their specialty cocktails (midwinters night dream and cardamaro manhattans - yummy I'll say) and the Brussel Sprout starter. Let me say to come hungry because the portions are large but yummy. The sprouts are a meal all by themselves! But there's more! I had the porcini rubbed filet and Teresa had the cabbage confit. Both portions were sizable and while I know she loved her cabbage, I was in heaven with a perfectly prepared filet that just melted in my mouth. Plus the asparagus spears and the Okinawa sweet potato mash were perfect accompaniment! Sadly, there was so much goodness we ended up bringing some home and we'll have to come back for dessert and another menu sampling. All in all a very memorable experience and a great place for a birthday dinner! But we'll be back just because! Special closing shout out to Michaela for taking such great care of us.

The food…read morewas solid Southern comfort, crispy fried catfish, sides were flavorful, and everything felt homemade. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service was genuinely friendly. Only downside was I was hoping to order steak and eggs, but found out breakfast is only served on weekends, which I didn't realize ahead of time. And they were out of an item we initially ordered but got something else. Still, really enjoyed the meal and would definitely come back.

One evening, we decided to try a local place, Kelly's Homestead Restaurant, and unfortunately, it was a disappointing experience. We walked in and found the restaurant fairly busy. After waiting at the entrance, the host simply asked, "How many?" then grabbed menus and walked off toward a booth without saying "Follow me" or offering any kind of welcome. She tossed the menus on the table and walked away--no greeting, no "Your server will be right with you," nothing. We sat for 15 minutes without a single server acknowledging us or taking a drink order. Looking around, we noticed other tables had drinks, but hardly anyone seemed to be having their orders taken. Eventually, we left and headed to Cracker Barrel, where both the service and the food were fantastic. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend Kelly's Homestead Restaurant.

This place is a must for anyone local if you haven't been, and if you're not local, it's seriously worth the trip! There are so many great things I can say about OBC, the service is phenomenal; professional, amazing recommendations, and they go out of their way to give you an unforgettable experience! Their bourbon selection is fantastic; they're guaranteed to have everything you'd want and even some things you haven't tried or been able to find anywhere else. The food is on another level! Starting with with bacon in the glass for the table is a must! This gives you a taste of the quality to come and the peanut butter accompaniment that comes with it works so well! The depth of flavor in the Cola-Braised Short Rib Tacos is unreal & even their rolls are amazing! The Ribeye is cooked to your exact liking; is a very high quality cut, and has a delicious seasoning which is the differentiator for me that makes this one of my favorite steaks I've had in a very long time! I could go on & on, but you need to experience it for yourself!

    I was truly stunned by the incredible bourbon/whiskey selection at OBC. They have over 800 unique…read moreoptions and the talented/educated staff to match in order to guide you through the selection process. The shear number of bottles on the bar will keep your eyes moving about and hard to focus on anything else. For food, I had the wagyu meatballs and couscous salad.
