If your looking for a restaurant with great food, nice atmosphere and friendly staff this is the restaurant for you. I know, all I want is nothing fancy, comfortable seating, booth preferred, good food and great service. Their bar drinks are excellent, especially the "pain killer". I always come with family, they recognize us as soon as we enter, it's a family affair. read more

Haven't been to Cheddars in a really long time and will have to admit that my memory of it was just meh. Things have changed! Great service. Food choices were great, atmosphere really nice and prices reasonable. We started with buttered croissants., light and airy. Then we split the crispy chicken tender soup. Delicious! The crunch from the chicken tenders really added this this. The House salad was pretty substantial and spot on. For the main I got the Key West Chicken. Really well prepared. The chicken here is really good! Deb got the pot pie. Another great tasting meal. Overall we had a great lunch here at a reasonable price to quantity to flavor ration. read more

Eating at Cheddar's is like that one song that you always skip but one day you finally decide to listen to it, and you find out how good it is. My Cheddar's virginity was taken a few weeks back when a good friend of mine decided we should go out for drinks since we had heard about how good their infamous "Pain Killer" is. I had no intentions on purchasing any food since the menu did not appeal to me, the awesome waiter ( who's name I can't remember ), suggested we try the crescent rolls with honey butter. Let me start by telling you this, you will NOT want to share these so do not feel bad for ordering your own personal appetizer. By the time the drinks and rolls arrived I had worked up an appetite and settled on ordering a petite steak, with a potato, and broccoli cheddar casserole. My food was average but the drinks were very well worth mentioning. Since my first visit I have been back to Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen numerous times, but I only have eyes for the honey butter crescents and any alcoholic drink on the menu! read more

Walked in last night to a very awkward host stand with no direction. Was sat in the bar area (which was fine) and waited for a little bit for a server to come by. Once the server showed up to take our drink order he seemed very out of sorts (and smelled of weed) and had to repeat 4 waters back multiple times. Then came back with the waters we ordered our kids food and then an app to start. Plain noodles came out 20 mins later wrong and still no app. Returned the kids meals which came back out about 10 mins later in between that we ordered our meals (burger and fries chicken wrap). Still no app 15 more mins passed kids were sleeping on the booth and we were out of water no server to be seen. Another 10 mins comes back I ask the host for a manager which he looked at me like I was crazy. Server walked over from the back smelling way to strong this time of weed and I said cancel our orders and I'll take the check. He rolled his eyes and said ok. Manager then wandered over said he would cover the two noodle kids meals and apologized and we gave our sever some cash and left. Won't be back definitely super disappointed! read more

Came here for dinner and I was impressed by the outstanding service and food. The room had a cute fish tank. The menu gave us so much to pick from which I loved. read more

Our day was horrible until we came in to Cheddar's. Kristina was A-MAZING! She really went above and beyond in her service making sure that we were aware of all our options and extras and she was super fast and friendly! Thank you so much! read more

Went on a Monday night-no wait. Seated immediately. Our booth was a bit breezy and the host was more than happy to seat us elsewhere. The waitress we had was attentive and timely. The food was great. The chicken pot pie was delicious. I will definitely come here again. read more

The food was very good and as always the croissants. We were shown to a table in the bar area. I'll never sit in there again. I felt like I was in the employee break room. Our server was distracted. We asked If we could place our order, asked if we could have boxes. read more

When I visited this place, always ordered the croissants with condensed milk. Other dishes are also good and prices are reasonable. read more

The food was fresh. The honey-butter on the bread was awesome. (Chef's kiss) The service was great. Love the dark ambiance.

Fantastic food, service and price. Super clean restaurant. Country Fried Steak was so good. Great cocktails and atmosphere with exceptional service. That is hard to find these days . read more

Love the drinks, my favorite is the "Pain Killer". You can only have 2, that the bar limit and believe me after 2 of these you will definitely feel it!! read more

Food amazing, service is always top notch, even when they're at their busiest they always serve you with a smile.

Everything was delicious penna pasta with pan blackened shrimp and to perfection. The bourbon salmon with shrimp also excellent

Was craving an old favorite so drove across town for a Chicken Pasta Caesar salad. After a much to long wait, I was handed a bowl of wilted romaine lettuce, 3 croutons, 5 pieces of penne pasta and overly saturated with a nasty tasting dressing. If I had only ordered a Caesar salad, it still would have been terrible because of the quality of ingredients, but the lack of Pasta in a "Pasta salad" was more than disapponting. Certainly not worth the effort it took to get to the restaurant read more

For being a chain restaurant, it never disappoints. I've been to different Cheddars various times. Some favorites: Queso & chips appetizer (some of the best queso! Served with salsa as well). Cookie skillet dessert (delicious!) Broccoli cheese casserole (side) Buffalo chicken wrap (lunch item) Wisconsin cheese curds (the marinara sauce!) Josh was a very friendly & professional manager. The bartender made note that it was my birthday and had Josh bring me 2 homemade, made daily chocolate chip cookies (which were yummy). We sat at the bar to skip the wait that was at the door. Go to any Cheddars & enjoy the food!! read more

Food was great, our server was superb! Will return next time we're in the area. Niaece place

Let me start by saying the kitchen staff couldn't find their way out of a wet paper bag. I have ordered to go many times over the last year and I can honestly say about 10% of the time they are on point and the food comes out perfect. But yet again last night I ordered for the first time in over 2 months. The chicken pot pie was room temperature at best. The sides of broccoli were so overcooked it looked like the grass that gets stuck around the blade and inside rim of your lawnmower after a good rain and you decided to mow the grass while still wet. The worst part is if you even bother complaining to management they make you feel like it's your fault..... no accountability, no responsibility, no sense of urgency just a ok whatever attitude. Corporate needs to take a hard look at this location, because the staff just doesn't give a shit. They are just going through the motions to collect a paycheck......and as always it's we the customers that suffer. I have complained to upper management about the problems with this location but it seems to fall on deaf ears. How these people sleep at night is beyond me. Take my advice and find somewhere else to spend your hard earned money, you'll thank yourself for making a better choice. Definitely the last time I dine there unless drastic changes are made!!!!!!!! read more

I like cheddars, however my recent visit was rather not pleasing. The manager there whos name was Bill, was yelling at his staff to shut the f up and go home because someone in the back made a simple mistake with the order. First it's very unprofessional, not to mention you can hear him in the entire establishment. Customers want to have a pleasant get away for food, and hearing that is not one of them. While shouting I'm the manager to his staff for one simple mistake that is easily fixable. Cheddars you got to do something about this, this is the way you lose clients. As for us we do not think we will be returning to this establishment until you get better,professional management. This location is Pinellas Park,Fl read more

I'm not sure where we got a gift card for Cheddar's, we've never been and decided to use the card and try it out. At 6 pm on a Friday, the parking lot was packed, and when we left several dozen people were waiting outside for tables. As a party of two, we were seated pretty quickly. The atmosphere is comfortable​ and we liked the huge fish tank​ . We were seated in a booth toward the back near the kitchen; the booths had plenty of space which​ is nice. It took quite a while for a server to approach the table when he did, we ordered soft drinks but needed a minute to look at the menu. They definitely​ have comfort food, although they did have a few lighter items. We ordered a Homemade Onion Rings ($5.99) we received​ a huge tower of stacked onion rings. They were crispy and light but were very bland. They came with two dipping sauces, the ranch was only OK, but the Cajun​ had a lot​ of flavor. We purposely did not order our entrees when we ordered our appetizer, for one we were still narrowing down the choice​ and we didn't​ want them coming out too fast. While eating out onion rings, we ordered entrees and were barely finished when the entrees came out. My husband ordered a Half Rack of Ribs and Fried Shrimp ($15.99) his shrimp were fried, crunchy and not greasy, the ribs were fall off the bone tender but probably took too far. They fell apart into a big pile of pork and bones. The fries were well prepared and they broccoli casserole was OK. I had the Chicken Pot Pie ($8.49) the crust was beautiful crisp, buttery and golden brown. The gravy was bland, the chicken inside was a little dry and for "scratch made" the frozen peas and diced carrot mix was kind of lacking. I came with a side salad which​ was practically a meal. The server did ask if I was ok with eggs, cheese, ​and croutons but there seemed to be a ton. I'm not a fan of the croissant​ with honey butter drizzle, it was just blah. The biggest disappointment had to be the service. Coming from a food and beverage background, I understand​ the food runner concept. But at some point,​​ the server needs to check in. We felt like he took our order and brought our check. read more

Love Love love this restaurant. I visit with my friend when we go to lunch. The appetizers are all very exciting! Sometimes we just have those at the restaurant and order our meals to go. It's ABsolutely FABulous. read more

Had an excellent steak. Well prepared. Sandy helped make this an enjoyable experience.

Love their Monte Cristo and chicken and gravy. Lots of food and great service. Drive up is simple though their parking spots for pick up should be placed differently and have wider spots for big suv's read more

Order it from this location tonight. Placed in to go order for 5 ounce salmon and a house salad. Salad was very small no croutons, like no love was put into this thing. I understand. I'm getting a 5 ounce piece of salmon because I'm eating light but I literally had like one cup of rice. Look at pictures attached. Are usually order from this location, but I am highly disappointed tonight. read more

This was one of the best experiences I have ever had at a Cheddars and I keep wishing my hometown in Tallahassee will get one of these. The service and the food were both fantastic. I forgot our waitress's name but she was very attentive and constantly checked on our table. I had the blackened white fish with broccoli casserole and macaroni. For dessert I had the cheddars painkiller cake, a new dessert that is a great addition to their menu. read more

Wednesday evening at 7pm, when my party of 4 asked how long it would be for a table the hostess said 1hr. I was flabbergasted and said "What!" A huge party of over 20 was in the center of the dining room. A business that doesn't have the means to serve a private party and take care of the rest of the customers should not accommodate such a large party. We were seated 30 minutes after initial arrival. The server was prompt, knowledgeable and friendly. The food was hot and delicious. read more

Our first time at this Cheddars location. There were open seats at the bar, where we had prompt and friendly service from bartender, Aaron, despite a busy night. Food was very good too. From warm croissants in the bread basket to my fried chicken and my friend's country fried steak, all very tasty. String bean side unexpectedly delicious too (not the soggy tasteless boiled veggies at so many other chains). Will definitely dine here again. read more

NEGATIVE STARS we got seated and waited for 10 minutes to at least get our drink order in, then sent for the server through the tablet, waited for another 10-15 mins as it seemed like we were avoided by waitresses walking by. The restaurant wasn't busy in the slightest either. We finally just got up & left. As we left 3 host & two waitress doing nothing just look at us confused & we said we never got served & no longer want to be served. read more

The dining experience was very good here. The entire staff from our waitress to the manager was kind and provided great service. The Monti Carlo was a very unique dish and tasted pretty good. It was nothing that I would crave on a daily basis but it was still very good. read more

My families and I tend to go there, for later dinners, sometimes lunch. I ordered their pasta many times, and I dont care for their Alfredo sauce, runny like water. Every time I order it, I'm thinking, that the last time was a mistake. But it's not. They watered down their Sauces. Other than that, their food is great, some of their servers are nice. Last time a girl with a nasty cold served us, who kept wiping her nose with her hands while serving us. We had to cut it short and throw away our food. Obviously, Cheddars didn't want to give her time off for being sick. read more

I am not a fan of this place at all. I hadn't tried it so we stopped in for a late lunch/early dinner. Had the onion rings to start. they were the best part of the meal. A towering plateful that was definitely overkill but I do love onion rings. He ordered the soup and sandwich combo with a monte cristo. His soup was cold. I ordered a grilled chicken with a side of broccoli. They forgot to give me the side. Service was slow, place was loud. Was greeted upon walk in by a manager who asked "Can I help you?" Not table for 2? Or 2 for lunch? That irks me. The cold crappy food irked me even more read more

Definitely been better on previous visits. Reason for 4 stars was our waiter was a superstar. Was very busy but never showed it. Was friendly and attentive. Food was fair. Wasn't overly impressed. Nothing memorable besides the rolls. Drinks were decent. Not sure if we will be back. So many places to choose from to eat - Cheddars need to up their game with freshness and creative dishes to stay relevant. read more

This place is a great bang for your buck without compromising on comfort and cleanliness. Affordable "fine" dining, as in this is not fast food quality atmosphere. I appreciate this restaurant as an option for families on a budget that want a nice meal. The parking lot is decent size although they are usually always busy so you might have to drive around for a spot. I have never had a rude waiter or waitress here so the staff is always friendly. The drinks are delicious as well as affordable. My fav is the Maui margarita which comes with a shot of cactus juice on the side to pour in. Mmmm. The food is always delicious as well. Some of my favorites include: the Dijon chicken with mushrooms, buffalo chicken wrap, Caesar pasta salad, chicken pot pie and can't forget their amazing honey butter croissants!!! I could eat 20 of those. . Can't really go wrong here, there's something for everyone. read more

First time trying Cheddar's .. wow so delicious. We ordered online and picked up . Easy and quick. We had steak , burger and fish . All came with sides . Well worth the price. We we'll definitely order again . Wish I took pics .. we were to busy eating. read more

My wife and I stopped in for a late lunch yesterday and had a wonderful experience. Our server Alyson was very attentive and friendly. We started with onion rings. We had forgotten how good they are. Not too much batter and cooked to perfection. We then each had the chicken pecan salad. All this time Alyson kept our drinks topped off and we shared a few laughs. No room for dessert, but we will be returning for a monster cookie soon. read more

A Christmas Eve with a twist. Local WingHoise was closed so ended up here. Baby Back ribs to die for. Highly recommend

A bunch of us came here for lunch on a weekday and the setting is very cool with the "island" feel to me. I liked it so far. We sat down in I guess was the larger dining room towards the middle so it was nice and bright and roomy. I got a chicken sandwich (don't remember what its called) and just about everyone else got either a burger or sandwich. I would have to say that my sandwich was really dry. Not that bad but its also made a little messy so when I took a bite, the middle of the sandwich started squeezing out the back. I would say the food is only OK. We did share onion rings but they seemed to be a bit heavy on the bread part and not all that tasty. I think the waiter was a little overwhelmed because he never really came by when we wanted some refills. On top of all this, I would have to disagree with some other reviews on here. I think the prices are kind of high for what you get. Maybe the price is also a reflection of what ambiance is inside the restaurant. Overall I would say this place is OK. I would go back but there are other places to try. read more

Our first time at Cheddars and we were both impressed with their staff, service and the food! We had a group of 22 to be served. They weren't told of our arriving by early shift, but had an area set up quickly for us. The wait was minimal and the servers were great! The drink orders were quick to arrive, and the food orders were taken fast. I ordered the bacon wrapped shrimp over rice with bourbon sauce, and a loaded baked potato which was superb! My wife had the Better than Moms meatloaf, could it ever be? Mashed potatoes, and Mac and cheese. She loved it all and that shocked me. If you knew her you would understand my statement(picky)shhhhh! Two pain killer alcoholic drinks for her and only iced tea for me. We didn't drive, me or her! We were impressed, and the girls on the staff were gorgeous, and super stars! read more
