    This is the second time I've visited one of these restaurants, though in a different location, and I've had a similar experience. The place and atmosphere are nice and relaxed, with a good variety on the menu, from pasta to steaks. Their Painkiller drink is delicious! However, they don't seem to handle larger groups very well. This time, I went with just 7 people, and the table we were given felt too small and uncomfortable, with little room to move plates around. The restaurant wasn't busy, but our order still took over 30 minutes to arrive. When one of my family members mentioned the delay to the server, his response was just, 'Really? Oh wow,' with no apology for the wait. I ordered a medium steak with shrimp, but once again, the shrimp was forgotten, and the steak was overcooked (closer to medium well or well done). While the menu has a lot to offer and the atmosphere is pleasant, I'm not sure I'd return after this experience.

    I don't even know where to start ... food was bland had nooo seasoning and was burnt from the croissants , fries , ribs & bacon on burger .. I should have took more pictures it was horrible . Worse experience I had out eating in a while .My drink was tolerable. Services were rude asf brining food to the table without saying a word . I didn't feel welcome I would NEVER COME BACK ! 0/10 *our server was nice just the food runners were really rude*

    Chicken Country Fried Steak
    Royal V.

    Got the country fried chicken plate not to be confused with the chicken fried steak plate. It was good. The service was okay. We were the only table for our server. Had to wave at server for refill of tea, servers standing by wall and hallway. Slow night. Not as busy as in the past. Restaurant temp was cold. Food was good, but not great. Restroom had a weird smell. Need to be mopped, I think.

    Fried catfish  and fries with salad

    Always love coming to THIS Cheddar's. They are hospitable and their food is always on point meaning delicious and hot. You may have to ask for sauces and stuff but they are great. If you have a rewards account for your bday with them they offer a FREE dessert. Dont say I never gave you anything

    Those Honey Butter Croissants
    Denisha W.

    This is another one of my favorites. The food is always fresh. The staff is pleasant and the restaurant is family friendly. I went for lunch. Although they have a good lunch menu. I chose to order a 5oz salmon and it sat on a bed of rice pilaf, the salmon was cooked perfectly. I also had a side of green beans which were seasoned pretty good, and a house salad. I love their ranch dressing .... But you know what was the best were those buttered croissants. The came out hot with the honey butter dripping off of them.. They were great! Washed everything down with a sweet tea.. My waiter didn't miss a beat. It's a family friendly restaurant and they allow large groups to dine. I will be back!!!

    Chicken Dijon Chicken & Mushrooms
    Kalia A.

    Although their service here is great, there's not that many plates I am happy to choose from. The quality of food from Cheddars has definitely changed over the years so I don't come here often but I came because I took someone out to lunch and this is one of their favorite places. The ambience was laid back and the server was nice and gave me some great recommendations. I went with the chicken Dijon and mushrooms with a side of carrots and broccoli and was able to almost finish my plate. My date had the chicken fried chicken and loved it!

    Monte Cristo
    Tiffany B.

    I went for my birthday and I completely fell in love with the monte Cristo. It reminded me of Bennigans. Everything was delicious. Our waiter John's birthday was the same as mines. He was nice and friendly.From the hostess to the other employees, everyone was nice and upbeat.

    Monte Cristo
    Melissa P.

    The Monte Cristo was the closest we've tasted since Bennigan's! Absolutely delicious! The baked potato soup was also amazing! I will be back for that alone! Last but definitely not least, the broccoli and cheese casserole was scrumptious!

    a cut 8oz sirloin steak
    Eloy C.

    The waiter was attentive and got our refills as soon as they were needed. Our food came in hot and fresh. Everything was well cooked, flavorful, and tasted delicious. The setting was perfect and we had plenty of space to sit and not cramped with other parties. The restaurant had up to date beautiful structure and designs outside and inside. The menu is a bit limited, but they offered honey butter croissants on the house.

    Chocolate Hot Fudge Cake Sundae
    Crystal V.

    Derek H. Was our host and he did a spectacular job, recommending the ice cream and cake it was delicious and I'd recommend it to anyone having a sweet tooth.

FR jumpsuits, boots, sleeves rolled, badges clipped. blue coveralls from lyondell, red from shell, a few others mixed in depending on the turnaround situation that week everyone eating like they earned it menu is not subtle chicken fried steak, gravy doing real work, boudin balls, fried everything that can be fried. portions that don't ask questions first few weeks felt like an introduction by month three it was just the system gained about 15 lbs during that stretch which made sense. doctor looked at it and said keep going which was unexpected but appreciated food hits in a very direct way. no interpretation. no explanation. just arrives and solves lunch but the real thing here isn't even the food it's the room this is where stories live you sit down and within five minutes something is already happening at the table next to you. hunting stories, plant stories, equipment stories, things that clearly started somewhere else and are now being finished over lunch there was one that went on for weeks brad handlebar mustache. former linebacker at LSU. the kind of presence where when he starts talking the table reorganizes itself he got into nikon scopes not casually full breakdown. bow hunting. sight lines. clarity. distances. adjustments. what works, what doesn't, who thinks they know and doesn't this was not a one day conversation this was a series every week a new layer by the end of it there was a conclusion that felt fully proven anyone telling a bow hunting story about hitting something without using a nikon scope is lying not mistaken lying and it was delivered with enough conviction that it became part of the operating system there were also discussions about AR-15 setups for family members at christmas, fusing jobs that almost went sideways, and other things that felt like they required this exact room to exist properly you realize after a while that this place isn't just feeding people it's holding conversations that don't happen anywhere else walk out full, slightly heavier than when this whole stretch started, and with information that wasn't necessarily requested but is now permanent five stars this is where lunch turns into something else entirely

I had to go with the chicken & waffles because why not! And, was not disappointed at all. It was so much that I had it for lunch at work the next day! Everything has an extremely solid flavor and will definitely be coming back even if it is way out of our way! we honestly felt like both dishes could have come from one of those hole in the wall establishment in the French Quarter. One negative was definitely the floors.....very sticky guys - Please address this honestly bad issue! The waitstaff are very knowledgeable and friendly to be sure!

    Food: 4.8/5 Service: 3.5/5…read moreAmbiance: 5/5 I've been wanting to try this place ever since I first heard of it and my anticipation going into the restaurant for the first time with family was insanely high. We ended up not going because of the wait but I went back with a friend earlier today and it was REALLY good. Like insanely good. I got the Chicken and Gravy while my friend got the Chicken and Waffles and we both finished our plates cleanly. The service was slow, yes, but they were extremely nice and did have multiple prefaces regarding the wait time. The only I had food wise was that the candied sweet potatoes were a little too sweet for me (and trust me, I love myself some candied sweet potatoes) and I feel like the okra or another one of the sides would've been a better fit for me. The chicken I had was extremely tender and juicy, and the gravy had the perfect amount of sweet and salty where I just gobbled it down with everything. The vibe is nice and homey and overall this place was just great. It for sure isn't someplace you can rush through in 30 minutes, but that kinda adds to the experience that you get the minute you walk in.

She was quick with our drinks and let us look at the menu for a few more minutes. Mom had the Green Tomato BLT, the Missus had the club sammich. But enough about their meals ... I want to review my meal. Their menu lists that the burger is on a brioche bun ... check that one off of the item list. A hearty patty is also placed inside of the bun and along with it are pickles, lettuce, onion and tomato. Check and double Check. Mayo is slathered on the buns, at just the right amounts that make it taste good, but not so much that it slides the innards of the burger all over the place making the chomping experience mushy. Flavors were good, I had just hoped the patty fit the bun a little better. The ratio was a bit more bun sided than oatty sided. My fries, crinkle cut, were seasoned well. Well enough that no ketchup was needed to dip them into for additional flavor. I would have liked a bit more crispiness from a double fry, but these were toothy enough to get a decent mouth feel. The meal for the three of is was about 47.00, so inflation has also hit my hometown dining places as bad as they have hit my current home near The Woodlands. Will i return to eat there the next time I visit Mom? If she wants to go, then yes, yes I would. I would also hit it alone just for their chicken fried steak or chicken. Ciao, Darrell

    *this review is only for crawfish, not their regular menu (which is amazing) *…read more We went here during crawfish season because they've been advertising their $8/lb crawfish, and we trusted that it would be great given the quality of their regular menu. We went on a Saturday for lunch. Hopefully this was just a one-off, but if you're looking for good Cajun boiled crawfish, this is not it. We started off with 6 lbs (group of 4) of their regular crawfish. First off, they put the Cajun seasoning on outside/shell (!!), which is a cardinal sin for Cajuns. They also minimally seasoned the boil, so the meat was lacking salt and flavor. We ordered 3 more lbs with the "wet sauce" (garlic butter), thinking the lack of flavor may be attributed to this being the first-ish batch of the day. Nope, the second batch was even less seasoned than the first. The sauce was good, but it didn't make up for the unseasoned meat. The crawfish were a good size, at least... Come on guys, I expect more from a Gulf Coast seafood restaurant!
