Their prices were decent, and it is the holidays. But once sat, our food took over an hour to get to us. My drink was great, I get the Texas tea. And the honey butter croissants were delicious! I ordered the Monte Cristo, which I haven't had one since I was young. It was good I just wasn't really hungry anymore after waiting for so long. I really wanted to like it because I haven't had then in years, but I couldn't because of the service. Our server was nice enough, really sweet. read more

My go to restaurant when I want something budget friendly and still appetizing! Upon entering I was waiting about 5 minutes for a host until I went over to the bartender to see if anyone could seat us. The restaurant was nice and quiet wasn't really too many people in there. Onto the food, I ordered the lunch special blackened white fish and it came with a choice of 2 sides for only 10.99, which is an absolute steal! It was very flavorful and delicious. I also added a side of Caesar salad and I love my Caesar salads with extra dressing and it automatically came with that! If you're looking for a good meal on a budget cheddars is for you and their lunch special is until 3pm during the week. read more

I had an amazing experience at cheddars. It started off with my waiter Jackson, he was seriously such an amazing waiter. He was super polite from the very start and made us feel welcome right away. He was always checking in on us to make sure everything was good and was more than happy to help with anything we needed. If we had a question or needed something, he was there right away and never seemed annoyed or rushed. You can tell he actually cares about his job and about giving good service. He had a great attitude the whole time and made the whole experience way better. Honestly, service like that makes you want to come back, and Jackson definitely deserves all the praise. His nice blonde man made it even better his personality lit up the room. The second he walked in with his nice big smile. I went to cheddars and got a trio sampler with my family, the food was amazing. My spinach dip was made perfectly although my Wisconsin cheese bites tasted a little bit like metal. The chicken tenders made up for it. The croissants don't even get me started on them. They were amazing. It felt like like I had a taste of heaven. It was seriously the best 10 out of 10 I will definitely be coming back to cheddars . The second I walked into the store. I felt excited to eat here and happy to be in such a wonderful environment if you come to cheddars ask them to have Jackson be your waiter. read more

I've heard great things about this restaurant back at home (New Orleans); however, I'm not sure I loved this here in Orlando. I do commend the restaurant for accommodating our party of 27 on such a short notice. We reserved about an hour before and it only took about 20 minutes to get a table upon arrival. Their complimentary croissants were delicious! So hot, buttery, and flaky! They put a slightly sweet glaze on top. However, I was not a fan of my ribeye entrée. The steak was SO bland and a little too chewy. It tasted like all traces of seasoning/salt were nonexistent. Broccoli was extremely bland as well. My cheddar broccoli rice was okay. I thought it could've been slightly creamier. Also tried the Buffalo chicken wrapper. It was pretty good! The chicken was fried well and crunchy! Overall, I'd give this place another try out my way! There's one in the next city over and I'm still excited to try it! read more

Not bad for a chain restaurant in the middle of Orlando. I've never been to a Cheddar's, but when my friend recommended it as a place to take our families after a competition, I agreed as it appeared to be a place that could handle a large party full of kids. We were a party of 11, and we were seated within 20 minutes. The waiting area was clean and big, and there was a large fish tank to entertain the kids. They have a big menu with a decent amount of choices for the kids. My son had a junior cheeseburger with fries. He thought the bun was hard, so he did not enjoy it. My daughter had the kids tender meal, and she seemed to like it enough. The kids loved the honey croissants served beforehand. I had the country fried chicken with the broccoli casserole and mashed potatoes. It was overall fine, very comforting food. But it was way too salty. And the bottom of the chicken was not crispy. My food was certainly not hot on delivery. However, my friend who got the chicken pot pie said her food was so hot, she burned her mouth. Service was not as fast as I'd hoped, but I admit that the restaurant was very full with lots of large parties. Our server was very nice and attentive, and she certainly tried her best in the trying circumstances. The bathrooms were clean enough but didn't have enough stalls for the restaurant capacity (in my opinion). Three stalls and two sinks isn't a lot for a restaurant that can seat over 200 and has a full bar. The prices are very modest, which is probably the cause of the chain's popularity. Lots of parking outside, and the location is close to the OCCC and the freeway. read more

This is probably my most favorite cheddars location. The service is always impeccable and the restaurant is always clean. I went here after my friend and I went to an event at the convention center and not pictured was her fried fish and my salmon. I always get theblackened salmon when I go with the teriyaki sauce and it never disappoints. Our waiter was very kind and also gave my friend a free dessert celebrating her wedding that was happening. I will definitely be coming back here again read more

My family and I are from Jersey and were visiting Orlando for a few days. I follow a YouTuber who posts lifestyle content and consistently she would go to this restaurant. Rather than going to restaurants that are already in Jersey I had a taste for something different. I convinced my family to go and my goodness we were full as ticks. The food was absolutely amazing! Now I see why that YouTuber went so often. Our waitress Sierra was very patient with us since we were new and she insisted we try the croissants, very delicious. I wish I had took pictures of our food but we were so hungry (we got a collection of ribs, chicken, shrimp and a T-bone steak. We all shared our plates of food which tasted incredibly fresh and well seasoned. Somehow we had room for dessert so we initially got the cookie which was okay. The cookie sundae didn't really taste homemade (in comparison to back home at Pizzeria UNO we would get the Deep Dish Cookie Sundae). Then Sierra was kind enough to offer another better tasting dessert. We opted for the fudge cake sundae and it did not disappoint. The restaurant was clean and inviting and the booths were nice and roomy. Entrees were decently priced for the quality and quantity of food you get. Sierra was amazing and we are definitely adding this restaurant to our must visits for our annual Florida trips. read more

Came in after landing at the Orlando airport. It was pretty busy but we were able together we a table right away because we were a smaller table. In general, the restaurant was very loud and service was very slow. Love that every table receives honey butter croissants- such a great start to the meal. I ordered the buffalo chicken wrapper with fries. The portion sizes were large and the wrap had good flavor - a bit on the spicy side. read more

Good food great service the ambiance is amazing love the Salmon and shrimp. oh and the honey butter Croissants.

When we were seated our server came by and ask what we wanted, not what he could bring. We put in our beverage order and he asked what we wanted on the menu. We informed him we just sat and did not have a chance to see the menu. He returned 4 minutes later for our order, luckily we were hungry and able to make a quick decision. Someone else brought our food. My daughter had the shrimp Alfredo which came with tails intact (yuck). The carrots on my dinner were cold and my loaded baked potato came with butter and cheese, not worth the upcharge. My medium steak was well done. One of my son in laws tenders was all bread. The server only came to check on us at the end of the meal, as I was paying and putting in the tip. No drink refills, no service. He requested we put in how great he was. I have never left a 5% tip before in my life, usually 25-30%, but he got 5%. Will not go there again. If there was a manager on site, never saw them. No other staff willing to help.​ read more

6/13/2023: updating my review. I used to love their pot pies which were so loaded with chicken that you couldn't eat it all. My mom and I both ordered the pot pies. There was two tiny pieces of chicken in each one. The gravy had very little taste if any may be the flavor of flour. The vegetables definitely tasted canned. I can definitely tell the difference between frozen peas, fresh peas, and canned peas and these had both the color and the flavor of canned. I had gotten a side of corn because I used to love their corn although sometimes it could be very salty and then I couldn't eat it but when it was good, it was very very good is corn had a very odd flavor to it worse than canned The appetizer trio was pretty good, nothing ultra special but passable. The croissants were OK, but not as good as they used to be there was no fluff inside. It was just the outside hard shell Well I will brag on is the service. A server from another area took us on because there wasn't anyone in our area at the time, and she was very good considering overworked in the server who did work in that area was also standing and helping out whenever she could so we were very happy with the service just pretty unhappy with the food I do not think will be back read more

I'm not really a chain restaurant fan, but I came here with a group and for my first time eating at Cheddar's, I have to say the food overall was better than expected. The portions are pretty large and we ordered way too many appetizers ...big mistake. Everyone left with to-go boxes of their entrees. I'd recommend the onion rings and any chicken tender type items- both were breaded perfectly, well seasoned and not greasy. Unfortunately, the classic cheeseburger I ordered was nothing special , and arrived a little overcooked. However, our waitress was attentive and came back to refill our drinks often. she also brought out a huge birthday dessert for us all to share for my birthday. Ironically, the dessert was completely devoured by all despite everyone leaving with to-go boxes in hand. I left the restaurant uncomfortably full due to my own gluttony and know better for next time how to order meals at Cheddar's read more

My family was seated and Ashley was our server who later forgot to turn in our order and this is why we sat for an hour and a half and watched 3 six tops be seated get their appitizers AND meals and we sat there waiting. Called Ron the manager and he comped our "meal" 25 percent off. Well that right there was NOT good enough for me. I wrote to corporate who in turn was apologetic but I will not be back. My son still wound up paying almost a hundred dollars. I would have been satisfied with just paying for our few appitizers and drinks that actually made it to the table than for him to have paid almost a hundred dollars. Corporate did write me back and sent a gift certificate but it will go to my son because I will not be back. Cheddars in Melbourne FL has also gone downhill. My boss went there was seated waited and hour no server came over to help get drinks so they walked out never to return. I will not be surprised if in the near future this chain restuarant closes. read more

Cheddars is not as celebrated as it should be. For some reason I had a raging craving for a Monte Cristo sandwich and my search led me to Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen. It wasn't busy at all. Because I was dining alone, I sat at the bar where the sweetest bar tender greeted me with the warmest smile. She was obviously prepping for the evening shift but remained so attentive the entire time. I love that! I hate when bar tenders feel that putting the mixers away and stocking ice is more important than the actual guest. Then the food was excellent. I'm glad I made the drive. read more

This was the first time I have ever been to a Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen and if they are all like this one, I really hope to find one that is closer to me in the future. When I got here there was a ten minute wait but I didn't mind because everywhere around was mobbed. Once we were sat down, we were greeted rather quickly and given a few of their honey butter croissants. I could easily eat ten of these things because of how amazing they are! They were perfectly flaky and warm throughout! For my main meal I decided to get the lemon pepper chicken and it came with rice and two sides. I decided to get the broccoli cheese casserole and the Idaho mashed potatoes. I have never had casserole that was as amazing as this one, from any restaurant. I have been dreaming about it every day since I went! The cheese was perfectly flavored and the broccoli had some of the best give to it because it was cooked perfectly. The lemon pepper chicken was phenomenal and came with two very nice sized pieces. The chicken was cooked perfectly as well and the seasoning was amazing! The waiter was awesome as well and overall the prices are surprisingly great for the amount and quality of food that you get here. Overall an amazing place and I hope to be back to another one soon! read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Big group of hungry volleyball players - Comfort Food Near Me - Orlando, Florida

#136 for 2021 Recently opened the word is getting around Cheddar's is a fun foodie spot. First off I am sorry for not remembering our server's name but she was very nice and helpful. Cheddar's is known for making everything from scratch. We were about to find out how good this really is. We came in on a late Friday night. There was still a little line for the dinner rush ended up waiting for about 45min. We got our table for a party of 9 and were given menus right away. Drink orders were taken and brought over with those delicious honey croissants. So glad some people in our group were watching calories so a few of us could have second servings on those sweet croissants. The $11.29 Grilled Chicken Salad was tasty. The glazed pecans were sweet and crunchy. The grilled chicken was nicely cooked nice to eat with the cheddar and jack cheese giving a nice punch to the semi bitter greens. There also was the honey mustard dressing I asked for to be put on the side. I tasted it but didn't use it. I found the salad sweet and tasty without it. Mog P. had the $13.49 Grilled Shrimp Alfredo. Although it was a little salty I found it tasty. Still delicious and I would definitely order it again. The cheesy garlic bread was good too and helped to bring the saltiness down. I was with a group of friends and had the opportunity to taste some of their dishes. Overall I thought they were good too. The $9.99 Chicken Pot Pie was better than I thought. I'm not particularly fond of pot pies but I actually enjoyed this. It also comes with a house salad. Pretty good deal. Sirloin Steak $10.99 came with rice and broccoli was not a bad deal. Rice was buttery and the broccoli tender. This to me was okay. This was a 6oz steak. For $3.00 more you can get an 8oz. That would be a good choice if you're hungry unless you want to leave some room for dessert. Salmon Caesar Salad $12.99 was excellent as well. Blackened salmon atop penne pasta, romaine lettuce and croutons. Add the parmesan cheese and it's a winner. If you go to their website you can place an online reservation for your party. You can also order online if you want to pick up yourself. It is good to see you can get good food can still be affordable and enjoyed by everyone. read more

We are on vacation. Had Cheddars in Orlando for the very first time and it was amazing!! So so good! Headed back home and saw there was one in GA on our route so we stopped. Totally different experience. Server was nice and attentive. My grilled chicken was like rubber tho. Tasted fake. My daughter had chicken pot pie and hers was the same. Same meals we had in FL that were awesome. Told the manager and she took 25% off. No other food offered. So we still paid $33 with tip and 2 of the 3 people in our party left hungry. We won't ever go back to this location read more

First of all, I would like to express my sadness about them removing their onion rings from their menu. I know it's not their fault but I am heartbroken!!! Lol I've ordered to-go here a couple times and picked it up curbside. Food is ready at the time they say it will be, or if you order it in person, it comes out pretty fast. They never really miss anything or get the food wrong. I came to dine in with my husband. They didn't look very busy at all in the dining room (but still could have been busy if they were short staffed.) The hosts were having a conversation while walking away from each other, as one of them was seating us which was very awkward to follow. We were seated in a comfy booth and the server did take quite a while to stop by our table. It did give us time to look over the menu though, so when she got there, we were ready. I love that they come to the table initially with some of those amazing croissants and small plates to start with. You can add 2 more for $2! So worth it! Food came out pretty dang fast! The cheese bites were soooo good. Perfectly crispy and great with their ranch. I got the chicken and coconut shrimp and my husband got the country fried chicken. Both entrees came with two sides. We weren't fond of the green beans as they had an odd taste to them and the mashed potatoes were okay but they were very obviously microwaved as they had that hard film around them like when you microwave something for a little too long. The country fried chicken itself was great though and so we're my chicken tenders. Coconut shrimp was very overdone and hard, almost inedible. We took half our food to go, and the server even gave us more croissants for no charge which was awesome!! Our server was pleasant and kind but the food was decent at best. I'm likely to return when I just want some quick American food. I give 3.5 stars out of 5. read more

Reading others' reviews of Cheddar's seems so far off from what we experienced today. We are staying in a hotel nearby and decided to grab some lunch after a really humid walk along a nearby trail (LOL). It seems like the area caters hard to tourists so there are an abundance of options to eat, drink, and be merry - and parking doesn't seem to be an issue anywhere, so far as I could tell. It was probably about 1PM on a Monday and there was no wait for a table. Our server (and I cannot remember his name for the life of me, but he had a mask with "OwO" on it) was there nearly immediately to say hello and offer up a couple of different beverage options. I ended up getting a strawberry lemonade and BF got an iced tea and both were super refreshing on a hot day. He also dropped off a couple of croissants drizzled with a honey butter glaze, which were so fresh and delicious - I could totally see myself pigging out on these lol. Much of the menu kind of feels like it would be better suited for dinner, but they did offer a few sandwich, soup, and salad options. My BF ordered the coconut shrimp with broccoli and potatoes and I chose the Monte Cristo - mainly because it was something that I have never tried and it looked super interesting on the menu. While waiting, I got the chance to take in my surroundings. I'm assuming that Cheddar's is a chain out in Florida and would guess that each location is pretty similar as far as atmosphere and has a similar standard for food. The restaurant itself was clean and had a pretty open layout that appears to cater to families and larger parties while also having a good sized cocktail/bar area (which is where we were sat) for couples or friends or whatever that just want to pop in for a drink and appetizers or a more "grown up" dining experience. The restrooms were also clean and well stocked, which I always appreciate. I personally feel like clean restrooms say a lot about a place. Our lunch came to the table pretty quickly and was super hot and fresh. My BF loved his shrimp and I was more than pleasantly surprised by how good the flavor combo was in my sandwich. I never would have paired this with a fruit jam, but it was so yummy! Our plates were piled with food and neither one of us were able to finish. For the price point, I feel that this was a great deal. It certainly wasn't the healthiest of meals, but we walked out with full bellies and smiles. I'd definitely recommend Cheddar's and would probably go back the next time I'm around! read more
