JUST NO!!! Food was cold and MICROWAVED!! Chips were stale, fries were stale, and main dish was def. microwaved because it was hot in some places and cold in another. I asked for a refill of water 4x and waitress still never brought me another glass of water. I WILL NOT BE GOING BACK. Just horrible read more

I love the energy in this place. It's so chill and calm. The food is also amazing. My favorite appetizer is the spinach dip and chips. By far the best appetizer here. The staff is also very friendly and welcoming. I like the aura it's very nice here. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Santa Fe Spinach Dip - Comfort Food Near Me - Port St. Lucie, Florida

I absolutely loved this place before I had to go gf. Always got the montecristo or burger. Fries were awesome, same with the complementary honey butter croissant, but they don't have a tremendous amount of gf things. read more

I have dined at your establishment many times - always get the New Orleans Pasta - I have tried to make it at home but could never make it as good as you. But this past week my wife and I came with a friend from out of state who heard nothing but good things about Cheddar from us. Well when my New Orleans Pasta arrived - first I had to send it back because it was cold then when returned I was really disappointed the wonderful taste was no longer in this dish (my version was much better). I do not think we will be coming back in the near future. Either you have a new so called chef or you have lost the in house scratch cooking as I believe this was precooked and just put into microwave oven. I did mention to server my opinion she apologized - I can't blame her for this - she did not cook it but believe she could have done a better job. Sorry for being so blunt but I am very disappointed and will think twice before returning . read more

We have enjoyed our food every time we come here. The staff is friendly and attentive. We love those flaky croissants!! read more

It's cheddars... it's ok.. for some reason I'm just not that impressed with cheddars. I haven't had anything or seen anything on their menu that made me be like. "Oh ya!! I need to go to cheddars!" They're just an upgrade of Applebee's to me. Restaurant is clean though and service is very good read more

I heard this had been opened under different managment before..idk. What I do know is so far they have the best Ruben sandwich! Restaurant is clean, service and food are great! Big portions with reasonable prices. Just off the highway on Orange ave...a new favorite of mine for out of town company. read more

absolutely great service, the ambience is warm and delightful to be around..and food if this is your type you will I'll definitely enjoy!

Went to Cheddar's on Father's Day because we saw they had Chicken and Waffles for a limited time. Awesome! I'd just had chicken and waffles for the first time and I was looking forward to it all day. Before I go on, please know we have been long time patrons and big fans of Cheddar's prior to the PSL location opening. We will always recommend Cheddar's (just not the one in PSL). Ok back to this trip. We ordered 2 orders of spinach dip and chips. They came out promptly, however the chips were stale. No worries, we tell the waitress she apologizes and takes them away. When the replacement chips came out, they too were stale. The question I have is, could we have been the only patrons to think the chips were stale? The manager came over and he apologized and took the items off the bill. Now for the star of the show. The reason we went there to begin with. The Chicken and Waffles. My daughter and I both ordered chicken and waffles. It came out promptly. The chicken was great. The waffles were hard and burnt. I literally played a drum solo for my family they were so hard. The manager came over again and took them away. My daughter ate hers because she was hungry. He came back about 10-15 minutes later and explained to me that the second order was also burnt and he requested a third order be put on. I told him don't worry about it. He took my order off the bill. I took the chicken home and bought Eggo Waffles from the grocery store and made them at home. I want to repeat, Cheddar's is a good restaurant. When we lived in Broward county we never had a complaint. When the Port St Lucie location opened it was also great. They had an amazing Fish Taco which was removed off the menu shortly after they opened. That might have been the writing on the wall. read more

I went there last night. I understand COVID but the menu is absolutely terrible. We were sat down and no one came over for a very long time. The waitress had no clue what she was doing, she never asked us if we wanted drinks, never asked us if we wanted appetizers. She just left is with a menu for about 30 minutes before she finally came back and asked us what we wanted. I got a Buffalo chicken wrap. The only good thing was the amazing Ranch dressing they gave me with it. It was cold, the cheese wasn't melted, there was no flavor at all so no Buffalo sauce. This restaurant used to be good. Now it's garbage. I will never go back. read more

Bad food , just tasteless . Way overpriced as well. 2nd visit and last visit.chips and queso chips were postage stamp size and waiter said would get us more . Never happened Lemon pepper chicken still very pink inside , country fried steak is flank steak dipped in beer batter to look huge but is a very thin cut . Steak and fried shrimp , steak overcooked (medium rare Came med well) Caesar salad not enough salad way too much dressing looked like creamed spinach. Nope not gonna pay for a $50 lunch that sent me straight to the bathroom read more

First time at Cheddars. The reason why we went there tonight was because there's usually a long line outside, which would indicate the foods great, but not tonight. I ordered the steak and ribs combo and my wife ordered the hamburger with sautéed mushrooms. While the food came out within 10 minutes, the quality of the food was below par. My steak was rubbery and the ribs were dry. I'm not sure if the lack of quality was because it was NYE and the kitchen staff were half outside the door, but certainly the food was the half the quality. I think out of all the food chain restaurant I've been to, Cheddars in St Lucie West would rate below Applebees. Infact, it made Applebees feel like it was J R Alexanders in comparison. Needless to say, I won't be going back there again. read more

Welp, I loved Cheddars the first time I went there. The second time was on a very busy Saturday night. Even so, The customer service from our waitress was still great. I ordered the Dijon chicken and it was served extremely undercooked. So I had to wait other 15 minutes for my food after it already took quite a while to get it, which I completely understand being that they were swamped. I was expecting some sort of compensation, or even one of their cookies that they give to new customers, which I never received the first time I was there. Nope. My check was full price even after I consumed undercooked chicken. I went up to the manager to make him aware of the situation and was given the excuse that the chicken they've been getting has been really thick. Okay? You're a restaurant. Figure out how to cook it then so your customers dont get sick. Chicken is not something to play around with. If they had gone a little above and beyond to make me happy, I would go back. But since they didn't, they've lost a customer. read more

Maybe 2.5 stars. Not impressed with this place which seems over impressed with its self. The ribs were below average and the burger was mediocre in the extreme. Long wait from order and very noisy ambience. Very local to us but will not visit again. Had high hopes but they were not realized. read more

First time here and loved it! Naomi was our server and she was absolutely amazing, very attentive and hospitable. The food was great and service was quick. My fiancé and I live in Orlando, but will be getting married in Port St. Lucie in May, so this will be a regular spot to take a load off and eat some great food. The painkiller is an awesome cocktail and the blackened redfish sandwich is light, but flavorful and fresh. My favorite side was the black beans! We will definitely be back! read more

I've always wanted to try this place. People have recommended it to me for many years. The food is good, however, I was not impressed. It reminds me of ale house food. I would recommend it positively but i most likely would not take initiative to go back. Not because it's not good, but just not my style. I think i could get something similar at crackle barrel or a local ale house read more

The parking lot was empty which should have been a red flag but we put it down to the fact that it was about 4 pm on a weekday. When we walked in we were met by this unpleasant smell which we figured was from the mats in the entrance. We had not been there in a while but we wanted to go back to have a quick meal and have some onion rings which we loved and the Mac and cheese.The hostess took us to our table one of the benches was dirty with some sticky stuff all over it We had to call her back and ask her to please wipe it down. We were a party of four. One of the menus had some sticky substance on it we just pushed it to the side . They didn't have any onion rings, no Mac and cheese on the menu. They apparently ran out of ribeye before we got there. We went along and ordered different items on the menu. My husband's Long Island ice tea was filled with ice to the rim. The food was lousy and to make matters worse there was a bug in my daughter's drink. The whole experience was disappointing to say the least .when we brought it to the waiter's attention he offered us a 25% discount. Our bill ended up about $65 Needless to say that after seeing that bug in the drink no one could finish or even wanted to eat any of the food. It was a waste of time and money. $65+tip. On a scale of 1-10 I would rate the whole experience a zero. read more

Had the chicken pot pie and cheesecake for lunch. The pot pie was delicious. Cheese cake really good. Strawberry topping average at best. Would go back. Far from my zip code. Prices cheap !!! read more

Great lunch spot that I accidentally ran into while taking a road trip with my girlfriend! Best place in town, great service, fresh food absolutely delicious! Will come back to eat next time I am in town totally recommended. read more

just tried to grab a bite at the bar at 1:30 on a monday. the entire bar was covered with dirty dishes and there was no bartender to be found. probably will be the last time we try this place... read more

Food is always delicious and they have the best coleslaw around. Very disappointing tonight though doing curbside pick up. We were told order would be ready at 7:10. Arrived at 6:47 and called to let them know what car we were in and where we parked. It wasn't until we called again at 7:27 that they came out with our food. No clue how long it had been sitting ready. Felt very unvalued as guests. Hoping next time will be better! read more

Wow, must say I was very pleasantly surprised. Exceeded my expectations for taste and the prices are so low!! Especially compared to other major chains in the same category. We loved everything we ordered and the chicken tenders were hot, crispy, and tender. The honey butter croissants literally melt in your mouth and are a must! Sign up online in advance for their club and get a free chips and queso starter :) read more

I've been to Cheddar's three times since they opened. I waited to write a review because even though they are a national chain, they were obviously experiencing some difficulties of a newly opened restaurant. First, I think the actual restaurant is very nice. This place is basically an upscale Applebee's, but the décor is very pretty. When you're sitting at the bar, you do feel like you're in a nice place. The food is fine for what it is. Don't expect a great meal, but the prices are pretty reasonable for the amount of food you get. Drinks are not really overpriced either. Really, for such a nice atmosphere, cheap food and drinks, I'd like to rate Cheddar's higher, but I've received such awful service all three times I've been there, that I can't bring myself to give them more than two stars. I've only ever sat at the bar (never in the dining area) but every time I've had to flag the bartender down after a full ten minutes of sitting with an empty glass. Beyond that, I have had some unpleasant interactions with the bar tenders just being kind of rude in general. Overall, the poor service every time I've been to Cheddars has left a bad taste in my mouth and I doubt I'll be going back anytime soon. read more

Went for our first time this evening and loved it. Many of the annoyances you expect from a chain restaurant (salty food, frozen dinner freshness, etc) simply aren't an issue here. We ordered croissants, an appetizer sampler and the vegetable/soup platter which allowed us to try a number of items on the menu. Prices were very reasonable. Everything we tried was prepared properly and seasoned well. The baked potato soup was delicious. The steamed broccoli was melt in your mouth good. The fried food was battered on site in fresh oil. Fried food was golden and crisp. The food tasted like it was made by a person versus a microwave. Even the tea was brewed well and didn't taste old even at 9pm. Happy to see a restaurant in the area truly raise the bar for both food and professionalism of wait staff. The staff were dressed well and made you feel good for choosing to eat there. You can tell the management takes quality seriously. read more

I know this is a " chain " restaurant but I still expect a bit more than this restaurant was able to offer in terms of quality. Our steaks were over cooked and not good pieces of meat to begin with. The sides are made long before we ordered and aren't worth bringing home. For these prices you'd be better off having a feast at Chipotle. There aren't many better options in this area but I suggest trying somewhere else. Service was good and the drinks with good amount of liquor are inexpensive. Our server Mike was great. read more

Food is good but how hard is it to get your salad before your meal arrives? Also, Chicken pot pie does NOT come "in" a pastry shell; it's "topped" with one so basically it's soup with a baked pastry top. Just so ya know. read more

Was there on Monday night with the family ! The food was good after 45 min !we had a free chip and salsa ! It was suppose to be unlimited but we got some after 15 min and the server never came back ! Ran out of water very fast we never saw her until she throws the place on the table haft our order was wrong ask for broccoli got French fried got the mango fish become I could not taste what it was ! My grand son love the grill cheese I like it too next time I will take the kids meal the other people with me like the food but we were there over 2 hours do not go there for a fast bite to eat you will be disappointed with the service but they said that there food was good you try for your self hope you have a better experience as for me will not go there again you can Scratch this restaurant off my list Lol read more

Went to Cheddar's on the recommendation of our Waitress at the PGA restaurant. We thought we were going to get a great meal. We ordered bottles of wine and the waitress brought the wine to the table and put the corkscrew on the table and left. We assumed it was because she just forgot it there, but when she came back to take our orders she told us they didn't teach them how to open a bottle of wine and she figured we knew what we were doing. As we started ordering at this point didn't have high hopes and it only got worse, our waitress was blatantly honest one of our table of 7 people asked how was the Mac and Cheese, her response was it is horrible. It used to awesome but the owners changed it because the kids didn't like bread crumbs in their Mac and cheese. So I was going to order a lot more food but when I heard this I changed my order to the homemade smoked ribs, which were just ok. We then recurved our salads and the waitress couldn't remember what dressing we wanted so she brought us ranch, we asked for honey mustard and oil and vinegar across the table, but her reasoning was who doesn't like ranch. These guys obviously since they didn't order it. The food was obviously all made from scratch but lacked seasoning. Pepper and salt goes a long way when cooking. read more

I was very impressed when I first walked. Very nice and clean. Shortly thereafter very disappointed. I ordered a pot pie and my husband ordered the rib combination. They were out of ribs. Ok. Then we overheard the table next to us order a pot pie and they were out of that too. Thankfully I had already gotten mine. Then they ran out of salsa chips that he table next to us was enjoying.....really? How do you run out of so many food items. We came here from Long Island to visit my son This place came highly recommended from him but we were not impressed. Too bad. Natasha was a sweey waitress but we won't be going back. read more

Had to send back my chicken salad twice for too much pepper even after the server said she requested no seasoning. What didn't the cook understand about that. Also the potato soup was too thick. Too much cheese When we were leaving, we talked to a manager. She only said sorry please come back. Any other restaurant would have offered a comped meal. It's called customer relations. Month later Haven't been asked to come back. Guess they don't care about negative reviews. I'll keep going to Cody's read more

Very good food ,always love coming here except tonight felt as if server was rushing to get our food order and leave the table. I realize it was busy but come on... read more

My First time here was with a family member and I was initially pleased with the experience. The atmosphere is great, nice and clean all around with a casual dining vibe. Free refills on all drinks - the peach tea is delicious! Staff extremely helpful and attentive, as well as courteous and kind. Ribs fall right off the bone, fries are delicious, monte cristo is delightful with the right amount of powdered sugar and jam. Not sure about consistency though since the next time I went the monte cristo came too soft then when sent back it came burnt... read more

The wonderful food was dimmed by the poor hospitality. This was my 2nd time here within a few days, as I was attending a conference. The rudeness and inattentiveness of the staff was shocking. I had to reach out to another server because ours could not be found after he took our drink orders. Lunch took over an hour and half because of the missing waiter. read more

Had Chicken tenders and Coconut Shrimp combo. Food was stale and restaurant smelled like kitchen grease!. Noticed fries were served they were cold and stale. I asked for another fresh batch and same thing. They were out of baked potatoes, and water tasted bad. read more

Thank you! I called in to reserve a table for my parents and grandfather for his birthday. I was unable to be there because I live across the country but wanted to treat. Gdad chose this place right away. Said it was one of the best meals of his life! Sandra, the managing partner was phenomenal. She handled everything from the reservation to calling me to take care of the bill and then even brought him birthday cookies on the house! Thank you all for making his day special. Cheers! read more

Wonderful place. Very comfortable environment, and food is delicious! My family always loves a night at Cheddar's.

The five stars are for the good quality of food and large portions. Love their red fish entree. The stakes are great. So, far nothing has been disappointing. Great customer service and the place is really clean. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Redfish entrée, excellent. - Comfort Food Near Me - Port St. Lucie, Florida

Walked in after 8pm. Waited 10 mins for the hostess to come from the bathroom. No hello, no nothing. Just the regular "how many???" That's ok. While ordering the waitress would not even let me finish my sentence. Steak came undercooked. Nobody checked on us how the temp was. We were done eating by the time she came back to check. Of course the sides were wrong, and that's ok as well.. Drinks late because the bar was taking an order. Let me repeat - this is all toward closing its 9pm. So it's not the prime time rush hour, just bad service... what else do I say? I give 2 stars because they are not expensive... no manager of floor as well... is Psl becoming overpopulated??? read more

You have to try their chicken pot pie!!! OMG!! good comfort food with real flavor. Depending on what time you go there may be a wait and service may be backed up but that's normal in any business anywhere! They also have a Spaglagna(spaghetti lasagna) that is tasty. I've never had a problem with old food, never had a problem with any of the food. I enjoy the atmosphere and love the bartenders assistance when trying to choose a cocktail. Yes they get slammed with bar and service and yes you may have to wait until you get next drink but they hustle, as do the wait staff so if you are in a hurry try the BurgerKing down the road. If you have time to sit and relax then by all means do it here!!! read more
