Ordered 'to go' Homemade Chicken Pot Pie- Absolutely horrible!!!!! Didn't even finish eating it. Bland taste - sauce not creamy - very runny. Crust not buttery as advertised!!! Not rich in flavor at all!!!! Served No where close to the pic shown in menu!! KFC has a way better pot pie!! Here from out of town on business so I don't know if there is/was a KFC in Omaha. Very disappointed and this is not the first time I have been disappointed with an item on their menu. Just didn't leave a review the last couple of times. Not sure if maybe it has to do with 'to go' orders. Shouldn't be though - care should be given for all meals! But finally got fed up after trying them again since traveling back to Omaha. Just have to give up eating here. So terribly disappointed!! If I could have given a rating of '0' I would have gladly done so!! read more

My girlfriend and I went to Cheddar's for lunch. She ordered a steak with sides and I ordered a pasta dish. It was good and the service was great. Our waitress was very attentive and polite. When it came time to pay the bill, if paying by card there is a device on the table where you would make the payment which I did. One question asked was if I would like to add a tip which I declined to do on my card. Now, I believe in tipping my server. I also like to tip in cash which I did. I left my server a $10 tip because I believed she deserved it. The better the service the greater the tip. So I paid my bill not really thinking too much about it. The next day, I happened to look at my receipt and there was a $15 tip added to the price of our meal. So my server received a $25 tip which was more than either of the meals we got. Why ask the question, then do what you want to do? I will warn anyone who goes to Cheddars to pay attention and look at that receipt before you go. On that note, I not return to this restaurant. read more

I really love Cheddar's! I first tried it during Christmas with my mom and boyfriend, then for my beautiful Niece's birthday, then again with our friends. Each time I had the salmon entree with mac & cheese and beans. The salmon was always perfectly cooked without it being too fishy. The layers easily came apart while I ate and the mac & cheese was a great choice with it. My last visit our waiter was accommodating and funny. If you like salmon and you want it at a reasonable price you should really check out Cheddar's. The family friendly feel really works for this restaurant. I've never tried it in any other state, but I'm really happy that this restaurant made it to Omaha. Perfect salmon every time. read more

Went to dinner with my family for a birthday. I contacted the restaurant ahead of time to inquire about gluten free options they gave a timely informative email reply. During dinner our server was knowledgeable and friendly. They had a nice selection of gluten free options. My wife and I shared a steak and ribs with broccoli. This food isn't going to win any awards but it was tasty and hit the spot. Prices are very reasonable here as well. This isn't a spot I'll frequent but I won't mind coming back. read more

Love, love love this restaurant and staff!!!! This is the one place my boyfriend and I can always agree on and we eat here frequently. The staff is always so nice and the food is always phenomena! Tonight was the first time we ever had an issue and they resolved it so easily and quickly! Our server Sommer quickly sent us her manager Jay and he fixed it in no time! I cannot recommend this restaurant and it's staff enough! read more

Of the 3 attempts that we've made to eat there we've only done so successfully once due to wait times and no reservations. I don't understand that. I'd assume it's better for groups of only 2-4, but if you have a group of 8-12 it seems to be a stretch. Last time we went the food was good, but if you can't get in without waiting 45 minutes to an hour its not worth the time. Today there were like 30 people standing around the inside of the entrance. Good if you can get in, but too many other good places that don't have a wait and/or take reservations. I don't think I'd attempt it again. read more

Everybody goes crazy for cheddars. I guess they have a good reason if they base it off of price and portion size. You always get bang for your buck. The staff is friendly the wait can be a little long if it's a holiday or if you party is a bigger. I am only giving them three stars to me because the food tastes good but there isn't a wow factor. I wouldn't go out of my way just to go here. But it's a great place to bring your family or kids. You'll have a great experience! read more

We have been at Chedder's at 120th & L Omaha, Nebraska few years ago and our meal was ok, staff was very slow and sloppy! We got a $45.00 coupon from a biz by this location, 120th & L, Omaha, Nebraska, and used it last Friday 3/19/21. I had the ribs and shrimp ( grilled shrimp ), w/ coleslaw and salad. Other than the salad ( very nice ), the meal was total grap! The ribs, very, very dry, cooked way too much, the BBQ sauce was ok but you had to ask your host for more sauce just to get the meat down. A custumer next to us at the bar had the same meal, and had the same complaints to the bartenders, the bartenders did not use any type of customer service at all to us or other customers at the bar that had a bad meal. Our shrimp smelled fishy, what was poured over the shrimp was bad too. Your coleslaw was dry and NO taste! You will not ever see us there again! read more

I ordered chicken pot pie. Every bite of chicken had gristle in it and as inedible. I expected much better quality, and was extremely disappointed! I asked waitress to remove it from bill, which she did. I will not go back. read more

My husband, son and I visited on a very busy Saturday night. Dylan took excellent care of us at the bar! He was VERY friendly and personable and even though it was extremely busy he went in the back to get a bottle of what I was drinking because it was not at the bar for him and because it was not chilled properly he even offered to cold shake it for me! Autumn took care of us for dinner and because it was out first time, she suggested menu items which were excellent! The experience was beyond our expectations. Autumn is very accommodating, personable and friendly! We even got to interact with the manager, Jay, who is also great. Meeting him shows why this restaurant is so great and operates at such an efficient level even on a Saturday night when it was extremely busy and there was quite a wait the service did waver at all from excellent! We will definitely be back! read more

Absolute worse experience ever. We (party of two) walked in to a 10 minute wait and at least 10 visibly open tables. (At the time there were only two groups ahead of us.) The wait ended up being twenty minutes as other people that had arrived after us were seated. We waited an additional 5 minutes for our server (evan) to arrive... within three minutes we were asked four times if we were "ready to order YET?" After 45 minutes of sitting there we finally got our food by a very rude member of the kitchen staff. After we finished eating we waited (at an empty table) for an additional 5 minutes for him come and take our form of payment. Two hours later... im on my way home. Im sorry but there is absolutely no reason why it should take two hours for two people to eat at an establishment that quoted us a ten minute wait. Also, he only had three tables to wait on, and the other two were empty read more

The food was great I have been to other cheddars in other states so I expected that the staff was nice , but they were slow came during COVID so the place was not packed at all but the experience could have been miles better read more

Garett is the most polite waiter. I wish I could give him a bigger tip but I didn't have a lot of money. Always ask for Garett.

*Best value* for the lunch menu. Mix and match two: salad, sandwich, or soup for $6, $7, or $8. The food is decent (nothing to write home about) and it doesn't hurt the wallet. One of my go-to's for my lunch break. :D read more

This place is always packed and a little bit of a mad house honestly. Food was decent but not many healthy or clean eating options. Scratch Kitchen here as well so as soon as you order they make it. However, our sandwiches didn't taste that way and the soup was cold. I give three stars cause I've heard others have had great meals. Maybe we just got unlucky. Do not sit at the bar to eat. They don't do a good job of waiting on customers who want food and those who just want a drink. Need more training there. read more

Tonight we decided to check out Cheddar's since we were taking our best friend out as an early Christmas present. The restaurant was pretty, the host was a little passive aggressive when we asked for a table, I thought maybe because they were super busy and we didn't have a reservation but the restaurant wasn't that full. Our server Amanda took our drink orders and recommended some appetizers to us which we chose the Chips and Queso, absolutely delicious! The boys loved the Onion Rings and were totally enjoying their drinks from the bar. Our food was hot and very good, I had the buffalo chicken tender basket, keeping it simple. My boyfriend had one of the burgers, and our friends had the Chicken Fries Steak and some kind of Chicken and Shrimp plate. Everything was amazing, Amanda was very tentative about our needs, and we left 100% wanting to come back again! Thank you!! read more

Never mind the few complainers on Yelp. They never recommend a better place to go. Fresh food, Low prices, efficient staff. Always busy. Salmon, ribs, alfredo, pot pie, never. Been disappointed read more

Cheddars is a great place when you are looking for lunch or dinner with a group of people and you want to accommodate all food allergies, diet restrictions, and peoples favorites. The large variety makes it very easy to make this place a go to restaurant. The service is great. The food is quick. The atmosphere is a little loud and can sometimes be a little noisy with the rotating of people but it is great for large groups. If you are headed there over lunch you can expect to be in and out within an hour and be served great food. I had the Miso salmon which can be found on their under 600 calorie option. The flavors were perfect, the salon was done to perfection and the broccoli was moist. I really enjoyed my experience and the wait staff that I had. I felt as though I was greeted with appreciation which is why I will be returning. read more

They messed up a little when I do curbside order, but I don't blame them due to how coronavirus is affecting a lot of people. However, I always enjoy eating the food here! They're reasonably price. read more

My fiancé and I walked in and it seemed quite busy. Fortunately, we were able to get a table for two quickly. We sat in our booth for about 10 minutes, without having anyone tend to us. A different waitress asked if our server had been by, which he hadn't. He eventually came around. He was a nice young man. But as the night continued, we noticed that the actual server wasn't bringing us our food, it was either other servers or cooks. It was odd. I had ordered the broccoli cheese soup and it was heavenly! Plus, it was only $5! I would 100% order this again. I do have a suggestion, add a plain roll or two. It would be good to dip the roll into the soup. read more

Had really, really bad service at lunch today. We both ordered salad + soup/sandwich. The salads were very good. Eventually 20 minutes later s sandwich came out which looked good but my friend was no longer hungry so it went home in a box. My soup never did come out because at the 20-25 minute mark the potato soup I had ordered was still cold according to the waiter. Who doesn't have their signature soup ready to go when it is 65 degrees & drizzling. They offered anything else I wanted & comped my meal but I don't ever remember such poor service any where. read more

Its was ok. Service was ok, food was ok, atmosphere was ok. Not amazing, but the portions are ridiculously big. Dinner for 2 was only $30, so that was cool. read more

Great place! Nice atmosphere. The waitress Callie is always great. Love the new blackened salmon and shrimp.

Wonderful portions. Had the queso appetizer and salad and baked potatoe. The host was pleasant and our waitress didnt miss a beat. Wonderful atmosphere and love the booth seating. read more

The food is very good and very reasonable in price. They make a fudge cake with ice cream that should be illegal, it was that good. It does have a small amount of nuts on it, so be cautious to ask for them to be removed if you're allergic. My wife had a pot pie that she absolutely loved.. On this night we were taken care of by Stephen and I must say he is one of the best servers I may have come across in a very long time. He was friendly, upbeat and took very good care of us. He earned a better than average tip tonight. Thank you and see you soon..:-) I recommend Cheddar's. Ps... My daughter says he's a hottie... just an fyi.. :-) read more

We have always enjoyed Cheddar's, and Garrett, tonight's server, was fabulous. The food is great and very affordable, the drinks (we like the famous "Pain Killer") are awesome. It's another great experience! read more

You have got to be kidding? You seriously have got to be kidding about this place? I Brought my Sister and Mom in from out of town and decided to try this place after looking at the menu online. Here is what we-all of us ordered. I ordered the Monte Cristo Sister, She ordered the pot roast. Mom, she ordered the chicken fried steak. We all ordered onion rings as appetizer. First, the appetizer. The Ranch Dressing, and the "Spicy Dressing." The spicy dressing tastes like horseradish with red food coloring. Ranch was good. The onion rings themselves left a taste of old oil in your mouth. The Chicken Fried Steak was sent back quickly. The outside was golden, looked perfect, but was so darn hard to cut through, and then the chicken inside had no flavor according to my Mom. Sister: Pot roast tasted like pot roast. Me, Monte Cristo. Side of Fries. The thing was like this. You take Oscar Meyer Turkey, Ham, and Kraft Cheese, then deep fry it, then re-fry it in old oil, then add good fries, but not awesome fries to it. The wait was long, service slow, and although my mom's chicken friend steak was replaced, they charged us for the replacement? No, No, No. Avoid this place please. I don't get the concept? Imagine Fast food, without a drive thru window, and without waters. read more

I've only gotten take out so I can really only review this place on the food and prices. Due to the fact that it has always been overloaded with people and I would rather wait for take out then to even try to stand there and wait to be seated, wait to order, wait for my food and then wait for the bill. No thank you. The prices are great. The food, well, I have a love-hate thing going on with it. The first time I tried them I had a spectacular meal. My favorite being the broccoli cheddar casserole. All the side vegetables I have tried were very yummy and cooked perfectly. Although I think they may drench the corn in pounds of butter and that may be the reason it tastes so dang good. And probably not in the least bit healthy. But the last time I went here I ordered the grilled chicken caesar salad with tortilla soup. The soup was good, not the best I've had but certainly not the worst. A suggestion to the staff would be to, when doing take out, put the tortilla strips in a separate container because otherwise by the time you get home they are soggy and disgusting. But what I was most unhappy with was that when I opened up my salad it was a HOT mess. First, the croissant they put in there was smashed because it didn't fit into the container. Hello? Put on the side and don't smash it in there just because you are lazy. Second, the salad was so wilted by the hot ass grilled chicken being placed on top. This is just another suggestion. When doing take out either A.) Let the chicken cool enough so that it won't wilt the lettuce or B.) Pre-grill the chicken for the night and stick it in the damn fridge so it won't be burning my lettuce up as you throw it in there. Third, the grilled chicken was cooked perfectly on the outside, but was still pink in the middle. Which I don't get how they missed because they slice it before putting it on the salad. I am glad I always inspect my food before taking a bite because that is how you get people sick. I have worked in the restaurant business 5+years and you can tell when cooks just don't have passion for what they do or half-ass their jobs. Whoever prepared my salad was this type of person. To that person: You could make people sick, when serving anyone food you need to have at least enough compassion to put the effort into the food you are making. If you wouldn't eat what you prepare don't expect great reviews from the customers. I ended up having to re-grill my chicken at home. Toss the lettuce and luckily had lettuce of my own to add to it. To the management/owners: You need to train your employees how to better prepare the food for take out. It is simple. Prep everything, cook thoroughly, and make sure whatever you do to said dish that it will not make the dish terrible after the customer drives home with said paid meal. Don't smash everything into one box. Make sure to have someone check the final product before handing to customer, make sure that everything is there, that everything is COOKED and that everything is presentable. Just because you could "get away" with half-assing take out meals because the customer won't know until they get home and it is "too late" at that point to say, "Hey this isn't right, or this isn't fully cooked or this looks like crap." doesn't mean that it is okay. You lose customers that way. Next time I order take out here I hope it is perfect. If not. Better expect some photos on my end to prove what I am saying about your poor take out service. End rant. read more

I usually have the Monte Cristo or the Grilled Catfish or the Shepherds Pie or the Spasagna, or the....well, I eat here a lot and have been a big fan since the day they opened. Tonight I'm having a Grilled Chicken Salad with crispy chicken, tomatoes, carrots, greens, and cheese. Of course, it comes with one of their yummy honey butter croissants. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Just come hungry or plan on a doggie bag; the portions are huge. The downside? The menu prices have gone up. Not a lot. But enough to be noticed. Still great food with always-excellent service. read more

I went to my local Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen this evening with a group of four good pals! Upon receiving my chicken, I was thoroughly impressed with the girth of the tenders! In fact, the first thing I wanted to do with the finger instead of eating it was throw it at a small child during its first steps to see whether or not this "Girthy Girl" could knock that little guy over! and I think it could! And for that reason, we're giving this girth sanctuary a five out of five! May the lord be with you! read more

After everyone telling us to try cheddar's we finally gave it a go and loved it! I was surprised with the selection and good prices. I am used to chain restaurants having boring sides but cheddar's side dishes are almost as good as the main dish. They have a good drink menu too and they make them strong! The painkiller was so good, definitely recommend! read more

Disgusting is the word that comes to mind when I think back about my lunch today. I ordered the grown up grilled cheese, it was like eating wet bread with cheese and meat in it. Awful. The fries were good and my lunch date enjoyed her burger and fries. The waitress was a "whisperer" so that was annoying also. I highly doubt I will ever go back. read more

We tried Cheddars today for lunch on a whim, not having any idea what to expect. We were surprised, both pleasantly and otherwise, by a number of things about the experience. There's no better way I can think of to put this, but the dining room looks like the inside of a Hollister/Abercrombie & Fitch, minus the racks of overpriced clothing. This is not a bad thing, but rather a welcome break from from the "trying too hard" design a lot of other places go with. The walls, ceiling, and pillars are all bare wood in various shades of deep staining. The upside of this is that it makes the dining room seem very simple, casual and just a bit classy. The downside is that it makes it almost unbearably loud when full. When you add the volume at which the music plays, the noise becomes the worst part about eating here. Not enough to ruin anything, mind you, but enough that you'll welcome the quiet that comes when you walk out the doors. The food itself was almost unbelievably good for the price. Our appetizer was a veritable mountain of onion rings, perfectly breaded, for only four bucks. We also had the chips and queso, which, also at four dollars, comes with salsa and (if you so choose) ground beef at no extra charge. Great value there. For our meals, we both ordered seven dollar items from the sandwich menu and were both pleased. My wife ordered the Napa Chicken Ciabatta sandwich, and was indifferent about it until she spread some extra garlic aioli on it, at which point she promptly started gushing over how good it was. I'm going to devote an entire paragraph to my sandwich because I feel it's that damned important. I ordered the Monte Cristo sandwich. Let me be perfectly clear: This FELT like the single most unhealthy thing I've ever eaten in my life. The sandwich essentially consisted of an extra thick funnel cake, STUFFED with ham, turkey, and two kinds of melted cheese. And when I say "funnel cake" I mean it. This thing came with freaking confectioner's sugar on it and raspberry preserves to dip it in. Having already assaulted my digestive tract with onion rings dipped in ranch dressing, my stomach was ill-prepared to handle fatty tastiness of this sandwich's magnitude. I didn't TOUCH my fries and still only made it half-way through before throwing in the towel. In the aftermath, I was left with two thoughts: 1) That was surprisingly delicious. I would not have expected a frankensteinian funnel cake to be so tasty, but it was. 2) That sandwich is damn-near unethical. That one sandwich could probably feed a starving African village for a week. I honestly believe I shortened my life-span by eating only half of it. We didn't try any cocktails, as the place didn't have a liquor license yet. For the price, Cheddars offers a great value. It's noticeably louder than a lot of other restaurants, and they don't even have their liquor license yet, but everything we had was good enough, and cheap enough, that we will almost definitely be back. read more

So this is one of those times when I have read multiple reviews that present this place to be a restaurant from the bowels of hell. After we walked out of Millard Roadhouse (I will sooooo write a review once I can even grasp what the f happened in that shit box), we were starving and decided against all horrid reviews and went. We waited maybe 5 minutes, had a rocking host, super friendly (not too mention prompt) server, and even though the food is packed with everything that is not good for you, it was great! We order the spinach dip, which was really good. The fried catfish with red beans & rice was amazing (you might want to actually sing 'amazing'). The chicken fried steak was apparently good (my husband said so). We also had the mango mojito and some drink that had a two drink limit, both we really good. Appetizer, one fountain soda, two alcohol drinks, two meals= $33. For the win. So what did we learn today? We learned that even though I read one horrid review after another about Cheddar's and one 'stellar' review of Millard Roadhouse, things are not always what the seem. Does this mean we are food snobs or we are partial to commercialized set ups? I sure hope not. We prefer to eat at local establishments, as well as buy our fruits & veggies from local vendors, but this is one of the times I will say that I will be back and I should remember that these are all opinions and can never replace your personal experience. The end. read more

Wait time is absolutely outrageous. They'll tell you 30 minutes and then you'll wait an hour. If you have a bigger party don't even think about being seated, they'll seat every other party before you. Would rather go to another restaurant instead of waiting an eternity to even take a seat at a dirty table. read more

I'm blown away that this place only has 2 1/2 stars. "The food is so good and the prices are cheap, so this place sucks!" That is what most of these people must think. I would rather get a Philly Cheesesteak from here instead of Pepper Jax. 9.99 for a huge portion of delicious chicken tenders and shrimp? Are you kidding me? I can't even get a fast food order for 9.99 these days. This place is a nice classy restaurant with dirt cheap prices. I would come here every day if I could. Whoever gave this place 1 star must be a complete moron who only eats caviar every night. I love this place and so should you. It's the best. read more

This a pretty high rating for chain restaurants. I was overall pleased with the buffalo chicken wrapper. I got the grilled. For beer selection you have all of the domestic and a couple popular micros like Fat Tire and Sierra Nevada but not much more than that. Our service was great and I walked directly into the bar area during a busy lunch hour. I'd go back but not beer being the main reason... It'd have to be a pretty good happy hour! read more

The hostess was rude. The place was overly busy with many people standing. I can understand if they are standing waiting for a table, but when I see several couples waiting while several tables are cleaned and prepped...then I think someone wasn't doing their job. We finally did get a bite and needless to say it wasn't bad, but definitely nothing notably enough to remember. Cheap, yes. Worth the wait, no. Better off going at times when it's not packed. Maybe when the place is not as busy, the service and food may be more remember-able. read more

Let me just start by saying the food is good and fresh. So fresh that there was a chicken bone in my husband's tortilla soup. When the waiter finally checked on us after we had finished eating, my husband told him about the bone. Fortunately he didn't break a tooth or swallow it. The waiter responded with a "well that's what you get when you have freshly prepared food". Um no. Not to mention he got our order wrong. I would rather eat somewhere with decent food without the attitude. Thanks. read more
