Stopped in with my parents for a small get together. Lots and lots and lots of empty tables and booths and she gives us a 4-top right next to the kitchen entrance. A polite request for something away from the kitchen was made and off to another table/booth we went. Our server was 'Kevin' and he was awesome. On top of our order, refilling drinks without our asking, and checking in from time to time. Fried shrimp was good. Salmon wasn't the best but the bourbon sauce was really good. Key West Chicken and shrimp was warm and almost went back but et' it anyway. Overall a decent visit.

Honey Butter Croissants

My partnered and I ordered curbside pick up for dinner. The pick up process was quick however part of the order was inaccurate. I ordered two sides to include beans and rice but beans were no where to be found. I also felt like the croissants were good but not fresh compared to a prior order I've had. I do appreciate the portion sizes are pretty good though and the meals are usually tasty.

Cheddar's is hands down my favorite casual restaurant. The service is always friendly and consistent, and the prices are super affordable for the quality and portion sizes you get. Every meal starts off strong with their warm, flaky honey butter croissant; it's free and absolutely delicious. The onion rings are a must order every time, perfectly crispy and stacked high. I've tried a variety of entrees from pastas to steaks to seafood, and I've never been disappointed. And if you're not finishing your meal with the legendary Cookie Monster sundae, you're seriously missing out. It's the perfect sweet ending to a great dining experience.

Cheddar's Painkiller

I really enjoyed eating at Cheddar's in Riverview, Fl. I have made a return appearance at the same location, once for Dinner and another time for lunch. The service was excellent as my waitress made me feel special, with the various food and drink suggestions! As for the painkiller. I only had one! Two would have definitely been more than I could have handled. The atmosphere was cozy and quaint! I only wish we had one close to where I live! Still this will be a favorite when I travel out of town again.

Chicken tender Family meal
Brittany M.

So I've been watching the reviews for this locations because o wasn't to sure if I wanted to try them so instead of dining in we Placed an order online for Togo. We got the Chicken tender family meal with sides of chose red beans and rice and fries. The order also came with their famous honey butter rolls. For the tenders dipping sauce with tried the honey hot I believe it was called anyways well drove up to the pick up area which our order was ready when we got there. Got home and everything smelled good looked fine until we started eating. I had noticed some of the pieces of chicken had a smell different than others and the chicken was very stringy. And the red beans and rice were extremely overcooked not very pleasant and the fries were fine. But the next morning we were all sick to our stomachs except my daughter who fortunately was the only one who didn't eat any of the chicken! The quality of their food was not good at all.

Grilled Salmon
Jonathan S.

This is my second time dining at Cheddars, not this location the first time but another one. This one just opened and my wife convinced me to give the business at second chance. And I'm glad I did. I had the chicken fried chicken with mash potatoes and beans and rice. It was so much food and it was delicious. My wife had the grilled salmon with broccoli, carrots and rice and my mother in-law had the sirloin with a half slab of ribs with mash and green beans. We all loved what we ordered and we shared off of each others plates. I liked the ribs so I'll be getting those next time while my wife liked the beans and rice and she said that she'd order that next time. Oh and the bread the provided before our meal was warm croissants with what appeared to be an apple or honey butter. The cost for the three of us was about what my wife and I would spend if it was just the two of us. I strongly recommend this location but pack your patience cause it was a long wait ( 20-30 minutes ) Enjoy!!!

Welcome Back to Brandon-Riverview Area!! It's like an old friend that comes home. Cheddar's delivers great food, service, and an atmosphere that is delightful. Family friendly but I thoroughly enjoyed the bar area for dinner and drinks. The service was swift and the quality of the food was the same as in the past. Great Food and Service.

Honey Butter Croissants
Karen V.

It's surprisingly better than the old Brandon location. I don't even remember seeing the honey butter croissants on their menu, much less getting a complimentary one before the meal. They are flaky, buttery, & delicious! We arrived at a time between lunch and dinner. It's apparently popular because most of the tables were pretty much taken with the exception of the high tops in the bar. We ended up with a half booth table in the bar near the kitchen. It's been 7 years since we've been to Cheddar's. That's about when the Brandon location closed down. I remember it mostly for the stacked onion rings. It took a while to reacquaint ourselves with the menu. We decided to pass on the rings since we had the croissants. By the way, you can get 2 more croissants for $1.99 (if desired). I was pretty much set on getting the Country Fried Chicken. My husband selected the Country Fried Steak. Both are served with 2 sides and Texas toast. I love that the chicken and steak are hand-breaded. They definitely tasted fresh. Especially my husband's fried steak. It was served hot, and tasted even better than the one that we like at Texas Roadhouse. The breading was thankfully not as salty as the latter one. The Broccoli Cheese Casserole was very cheesy. It was good despite not having too much broccoli. The Idaho Mashed Potatoes are kind of bland, but I appreciated having the country gravy on top. I'd probably skip the mashed potatoes and go with a side salad next time. Other than that, the service was very good and our food arrived in a good amount of time. It's located in the same shopping plaza as Target on Bloomingdale in Riverview. They also give military discounts. Yay! We will return. I want to get the Country Fried Steak. It was good to see my husband finally get the better dish, no matter how much it tempted me.

Classic Cheeseburger*
Meagan F.

Of course the croissants are amazing but the burgers have a weird texture that I did not enjoy. Also the salt shaker was dirty and clumped inside the lid so I had to clean it out to use it. Should probably add that to the daily side work. Not the experience I was hoping for.

I don't mind cheddars at all. I have went several times and my food has been good. Sometimes the workers are a hit or miss, but it is good. Remember the lights are a little dim in these restaurants. Food for everyone

Ribs & Shrimp combo with French fries and corn
Steve H.

Decided on Cheddar's for dinner and hot seated right away. I ordered the fried shrimp and rib combo. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and quite large. The half rack of ribs were absolutely huge and the meat fell off the bone. There was an insane amount of meat on these ribs and they were not overly coated with bbq sauce. It was just enough. The two sides were well seasoned French fries and buttered corn off the cob.

This is a small restaurant with booth and table seating. As we walked in, we were greeted by a friendly server who instructed us to sit wherever we like. The menu covers everything from breakfast to dinner. My wife and I shared the ultimate skillet, which was one of the specials offered on a Saturday. It was stacked with homefries, vegetables, meats, gravy, and cheese. It was a great value at $15. The flavor was outstanding. I will mention one negative. The parking situation is not good. I did not see many spots available. I just happened to get a spot right in front of the restaurant but I feel like we will struggle to find parking if it's busy. We were provided exceptional service the entire time. I will absolutely return to A&G to try more of the menu.

Soooo good. Very family friendly, very great prices. Will be back often now!

Food, which is served next door from a food trailer, I gave sort of mixed reviews. Regualr cheese burger had really good flavor, BUT... the texture when eating it was like meatloaf. Not really a fan of that part, but would consider trying again to see if it is made the same way. I assume it is, because the people I was with said the same thing. Fries were good and well seasoned. Also tried the ribs, which were pretty good. Standard BBQ for the area. Baked beans were very good and better than most places in the area. Collards with very so so. Also got some Gator bites blackened. They came highly recommended, especially this way. They were very chewy. Flavor was so so, for me. Did not like at all and only ate a few. 1/5 for the gator. The bar also serves boiled peanuts at times. They were fantastic. Some of the best I've ever had, but they go quick. We ended up staying there for about 4 hours overall.

The service is amazing. The staff was attentive and helpful. I wish the food was better. I was in the mood for a salad. The first disappointment was that they only gave 3 choices. I am on a gluten free diet and didn't have a problem with that. I did have a problem with the fact that 2 out of 3 salads had cheese in it and is not for someone who adheres to a dairy free diet. Yes, I could have asked if the cheese could be left out. But these salads had multiple kinds of cheese. I never wanted to be that person who asks to leave out half of the ingredients because of dietary restrictions. I would have had to do that. Maybe the answer is the choice to have a custom salad for people like me. The second disappointment was that the salads had a price without any protein. When you added one of the proteins, the salad became very expensive. This was a huge turnoff. The last disappointment was the ice tea. Although there were 3 choices, two of them had ingredients to which I am allergic. The third choice had caffeine. There was really no choice other than to drink water. I chose the restaurant because it was midway between us and friends. I looked at ratings and the number of stars when I travel out of town. This was not really what I expected.
