The steak is really tough. It looked good when it was brought to my table but its really hard to chew. The fries and broccoli are really good. I sent it back they sent another one it it was tougher than the first one. Definitely avoid the steak. read more

Food was good, I wish the pasta for Mac & cheese was so cooked as it is mushy when served and distasteful. Last week the brisket was dry and the sides of meat drier. Service was efficient and courteous. Not very many ppl so, it was mostly lower voices reduction, table clean, paper rolls were available. Greeted at entrance and thanked as we completed our visit. Thank you read more

This would had been our second visit here. The ambiance is like being at home. You just feel comfortable. We had a great server. The first item she brought out was a croissant covered with a honey buttery awesomeness. I would eat there for just that. I ordered the chicken fried chicken. This CFC was thick unlike other restaurants. My husband had the baby bake ribs and they were very delicious & the Red Beans & Rice was amazing in flavor. The cheese curds were some of the best we have ever had. We will go back. read more

Really great chicken pot pie and one of the best servers I've ever had, Rena! My friends enjoyed their cheeseburger and flaky salmon!

Food was good service was very slow but quality of food was great. The atmosphere is nice had steak, salmon & pecan salad as entrees. All members of family happy so a nice family affair read more

Great food and service. This place is such a bargain for the quality and quantity of food. The chicken fingers are always good. One kiddo enjoyed the chicken pot pie and broccoli cheddar casserole. Two of us had fish and shrimp--one grilled and one fried. Both good. We tried the red beans and rice for the first time and it was busting with flavor. The red beans and rice were better than any we had in New Orleans a few weeks ago. My only compliant is that the dining room was freezing. Take a jacket and a blanket with you, especially in the summer. read more

For a chain restaurant, one we don't have in California, they're pretty good. What sets Cheddar's apart from the competition is the fact that they make everything from scratch on site. Don't get me wrong, they won't be receiving any Michelin stars, but for an affordably priced chain they offer a wide variety of good quality menu items. The service is typically good and it seems they are almost always busy, but the wait to be seated is very short, if there's a wait at all. Once seated, the environment is very pleasant. The decor is kind of reminiscent of dining rooms in more upscale restaurants in the 1980's or 90's. This is a great option for family dining. I'm sure we'll be back. read more

Decent Cheddar's location, but they definitely cut corners compared to other locations we've been to. One example of this was on their cocktails, which are pictured in big glasses with fruit garnish, but here they looked pretty disappointing when we received them. The previous location we went to in Arkansas made it just like the menu photo! Service was meh, but it was pretty busy on a Friday night, so that probably was out of the server's control. The food came out hot and fresh and was good. Overall, Cheddar's is still a great spot compared to most other chain restaurants! read more

The food was tasty and the portions and price was good. Our service was awful. One of the sides was missing. Slow service, our waitress disappeared, it took well over an hour at 2 pm in a mostly empty restaurant. She was nice enough but even after when we tried to pay our check, she was gone and we ended up giving it to a different waitress. read more

Will not be going back to Cheddars. Used my Military card for a free appetizer. The server did not subtract it from my bill and I did not notice until after I paid. They said they could not take it off. They also refused to give me a gift card to make up the difference . The lost a customer over $10.00!!!!! read more

Steak came out not even rare, chicken came out pink. Terrible food & management didn't care. Will not be back.

This is the second time I have eat at Cheddar's and it will be my last. The first time was right after they opened. The only thing good at this restaurant are croissants. I ordered the Chicken Alfredo. The pre-marinated grilled chicken was too salty and the pasta was dry. It had very little sauce. The garlic toast was burned and very hard. The waitress replaced my order and it was not any better. The chicken was replaced with pulverized non battered chicken tenders. Absolutely no taste. The garlic bread, once again, was burned. My mother ordered the bourbon glazed salmon. It was dried out, like it had been sitting under a heat lamp. They brought out another order which was a lot better. My sister ordered the potato soup. It was very salty and the cheese was so thick you couldn't find the potatoes. The waitress was amazing. She did a fantastic job and was tipped well. Whoever the cook is, needs to replaced with someone who cares. I just wish I had taken more pictures. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Chicken Alfredo - Comfort Food Near Me - Pensacola, Florida

This place is hopping and bopping on a Friday evening! The service for a booth was fast and there is plenty of parking. We were able to order beverages quickly (the iced teas are great here!), and get an order for food fast also... but, food took a bit to arrive. This is a pretty standard American restaurant, typical burgers, wraps, salads sandwiches, and fish. Overall, it was good- but nothing "special." The building is neat looking on the inside though! read more

Would not recommend their new spasagna. I generally love baked spaghetti, but this is not it. This doesn't even seem baked. It is very al dente spaghetti noodles with marinara AND Alfredo sauce poured over it. It wasn't even hot, or warm. It was room temperature at best. Will not have it again! read more

We eat at Cheddar's a lot. We have eaten at multiple locations. For it to be a chain restaurant, it is always consistently great food and great service. The Pensicola FL was even a bit higher standard than the normal for this restaurant. The hostess was very friendly and welcoming. She worked quickly to get us seated. Atmospheres was good, it was a bit chilly inside but besides that it was great. However the best thing of the dinning experience was an our waitress Raley ! She was fantastic! She was prompt and quick to get our order. She was very helpful with the menu choices . She was also very quick to refill our drinks which is huge at a restaurant for us! She was also very kind and friendly! She made our dinning experience fantastic! We will definitely ask for her again if we come back to that location! Keep up the good work! read more

Me and my family of 6 including children are here and two hours later had to be rushed to the emergency room due to food poisoning I highly don't recommend eating here we been sick and had to cut our vacation short due to food poisoning read more

Stopped in from out of town. Been to other Cheddars locations before with good results. This location was below average. Clean and somewhat friendly service. Bathrooms in disrepair. Server was nice but didn't have much good to say about the menu when asking questions. I decided on the sirloin, medium, with grilled shrimp, house salad and loaded baked potato. Salad and meal arrived together; not a huge problem but I believe most of us would like it in advance. Steak served closer to rare then medium. Shrimp had good flavor but was ok at best; it was cool almost room temp. Baked potato was good. Overall it was just ok. I expected more from my previous experiences at other locations, but I will not return to the location. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Sirloin and shrimp with loaded baked potato - Comfort Food Near Me - Pensacola, Florida

Haven't been to one of these locations in a while. I must say this location wasn't bad either. The service was fast, food was brought out hot. I got the cheese fries ( forgot to take pic) they were good not overly fried. The only thing I didn't care for was the cheeseburger, it was one of those frozen patties. Overall the service was wonderful, I would visit again! read more

I had a carryout shrimp and, chicken plate w broccoli and rice. Tasty. Decent appearance. Pineapple infused.

They closed all of our Cheddar's in Louisiana so we were so excited to find this one and it did not disappoint. In spite of it being graduation night for many of the schools and it being crazy busy, they still sat us quickly. We had a wonderful server named Alex. She was very attentive and very calm under the pressure of such a busy evening. We ordered tons of appetizers: spinach sip, queso with beef, honey butter crescents and it was all delicious. The restaurant is clean and well run. We really enjoyed our dinner and will be back next year when we are here on vacation. read more

Pensacola is my hometown and there are very few nice restaurants but this is definitely one of them! The ambiance can be a little dead at times but the food is fantastic. I visited my family for Christmas and the first thing I thought of to go to was Cheddars. The glazed croissants are to die for although they put less glaze now than I remeber (the salad used to come with a croissant as well and now it doesn't). The beinget ham jam cheese thing is SO GOOD. Omg if ur on a diet maybe don't buy it was so soft and cheesy and the donut breading with the sweet sauce made it the perfect meal for someone who loves sweets like me. My go to though is the crispy chicken salad extra pecans and honey mustard. Yes yes yes love this place one of the most delicious in Pensacola read more

Great service, from beginning to end. Food hot and fresh. Our server Riley was very helpful and friendly. Atmosphere was peaceful not too loud for a Saturday night. Will be returning. Monte Crisco was awesome!! Highly recommend. Very large portio read more

The honey butter croissants were delicious. They had some healthy dinner choices for a very reasonable price! I love that there were so many wonderful sides to choose from! read more

For a chain, the food was pretty good. Very nice amiance.. Wait staff was very, very good. Service was fast. I had half rack of baby backs and while they were not "fall off the bone" as advertised, they were tasty and with a generous serving size. The baked potato was cooked perfectly. The coleslaw was pedestrian. The actual highlight was the rolls whish were drenched in a honey/butter sauce. I had to eat two! My wife had meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy which she rated as well above average. Prices were reasonable e cents for the bottled beer which at $5.99 was a bit pricey. 4 stars was given based solely on my comparison to other chains offering similar food items. read more

Food was incredible, atmosphere was neat with the big fan in the main dining area, staff was incredibly friendly from the moment we walked in the door. Shoutout to our server, Ryan dude's really good at what he does. Also those croissants to kick things off were nothing short of amazing. read more

This is a go-to spot whenever I'm on this side of town or with friends and we want a quick meal and cocktail. It's one of the only chains I'll go to. The ambiance is the nicest in town for the price, as are the cocktails. The Painkiller could be in a fancy glass at a bar downtown and cost $15 easily. All of the cocktails are phenomenal and crazy cheap. The food is excellent and service has always been fine. I like the grilled chicken Caesar, the pasta salad on it is a nice change. The steak is very peppery and well salted. The chicken tenders are some of the best in town. You can taste how they're battered fresh. We opt for the appetizer trio to split as a meal and add ground beef to the queso. One of the last places to get a monte cristo in town. Good pot pie and phenomenal ribs. Like, surprisingly good ribs. read more

Both the food and service were low quality. The honey butter croissant was very delicious. I would not order the spinach dip again. It was very watery and had a terrible flavor. The Cajun Chicken Bowl was okay. The service was terrible. The waitress did not refill beverages, grab dishes we finished eating. I dined with a party of four, so our table got overcrowded very quickly with all of the dishes. We eventually started pilling all of the dishes onto the table next to us. All-in-all I wouldn't dine here again. Just order the croissants to go. read more

We have been here a few times and it's always been a good experience. This time we brought our granddaughter and she loved the yummy rolls. I am thankful they are wheelchair friendly due to a recent accident. The staff are friendly, variety of yummy food and service is quick. I was happy that the music wasn't too loud so we could actually have conversation and granddaughter enjoyed viewing the fish tank. This is a family go to! read more

had our best service yet at Cheddar's Pensacola tonight with our awesome server Trace!

Normally love this place but as of today I will not be wasting my money there anymore. While waiting for my food I notice the cup they gave me was dirty, so I requested a new one. Then when me and my family get our food it's burnt, no taste, and hard. This place was not worth the $50 spent. read more

The service here was really nice. Nico was an amazing waiter! He was very attentive and kind. The food was good too. read more

What a pleasant surprise! We were trying to avoid a long wait and get an ok meal while passing through Pensacola on a Saturday night. What we got far exceeded our hopes and expectations. We had called ahead to get on the wait list so were seated no longer than 5 minutes after our arrival. Our server, Chad, was great: funny, efficient, comfortable. We had a mixed drink apiece before dinner and a glass of wine apiece with our meal. My wife had the 6 oz. sirloin, cooked rare as ordered, along with a baked potato and salad; Chad was very careful to make sure her order was consistent with her IBS dietary limitations. I also had the 6 oz. sirloin with grilled shrimp as an add on, with a sweet chili sauce over rice. Everything was delicious. Sounds like such a little thing, but the chilled salad fork was a really nice touch. Tab before tax and tip was $72. Great value. read more

Well had not been to Cheddars in years due to a bad experience. So we thought let's see if it's improved. Ok, it had the chicken was actually cooked. lol I had fried chicken salad with honey mustard. That dressing was delicious. Chicken sandwich was very good baked potatoe a little small but good. Disappointed to learn that they had done away with their onion rings because they were good. Not busy service a little slow but our server was attentive. I will go back again because I did like the salad. No pictures phone was dead. ‍ read more
