My husband and I ate at Cheddar's late last night. It was our first time and we were excited to try it. Unfortunately, we were sorely disappointed! We arrived around 9 pm and the hostess was no where to be seen. We asked if they were closed or closing soon, we always try to be respectful of the restaurant workers time, but she happily sat us. (They close at 10pm) Once we were seated, it took around 7 minutes for our waitress to introduce herself. We should have seen the red flag then and left, but we were hungry. My husband mentioned that we had never eaten here before and asked for recommendations. Our waitress cheerfully recommended ribs, among others. She said that the ribs were better than Rib Crib. He ordered them and I ordered the crispy chicken salad. For drinks, I asked for water and beer for my husband. Again, we waited.... My water came 5 minutes later and the beer another 5 minutes later. Dear readers of my review- by now you may be thinking that I'm being too harsh. "Maybe the restaurant was crowded." NOPE! There were only a small handful of people there. Back to my review.....from the time that we ordered until our food arrived was 45 minutes!!! Sadly, the food was disappointing as well as the service. My salad was okay, simple, nothing special. My poor husband's dinner was AWFUL! He said they were the worst ribs he's ever eaten! Fatty, dry, blech! That sound you just heard was me gagging. I asked for extra napkins, he is eating ribs, remember? They never came. During our dreadful dinner, I watched the other patrons also get frustrated. A couple of gentlemen waited FOREVER for their food, bill, and bill again when the incorrect amount of change was given. Same story for a family of four with two small children....endless waiting. Throughout this period of waiting, I witnessed several waiters cleaning, sweeping, vacuuming, and wandering but NOT serving! I feel bad for the workers there, no one left Cheddar's satisfied. Hire new a new chef, manager, and more waiters. P. S.- during my epic wait, I looked up Cheddar's online and they have a post on Craigslist for a new manager. Please be advised- Eating at this restaurant is hazardous to your stomach, time and patience! read more

I wanted to try something new so I decided to come here I ordered chicken fried steak since I haven't had it in a while, and while it wasn't the worst one I've ever had it wasn't the best either. The sides were okay as well, but again all I can say is they weren't the worst or the best. What really upsets me is my server wasn't around very much, and in particular I didn't get silverware or a napkin before I had to physically get up and ask for it. I'm not someone who's stuck up and thinks, "How dare they make me get up and ask for something", etc etc etc, but I really shouldn't have to ask for basic items when I go out to eat. The other server in my section was hustling like crazy and I wish she could've taken care of me instead. read more

Great service. Hot food and good Dr. Pepper! The bacon burger is huge and great for its price. 10/10 would recommend.

We have eaten at Cheddars often and no problems with the food. Last night was a different story. The steak was not cooked as ordered but they did replace it. The Chicken Alfredo was terrible. My go-to meal of chicken tenders was the worse. The breading was way too much and the flavor was odd... not a good meal at all. The rolls and salad were good, but otherwise this was not a good meal! read more

I will not be coming back. The staff was great. It was busy and still made sure we were taken care of. The appetizer was great we had cheese curds. My sister got the chicken fried steak and she said it was good. I had chicken and the chicken was rubber and I couldn't eat it but sometimes that just happens and it's not the chefs fault. However, the reason for the 1 star is because we had a roach crawling on our table... the place needs to be cleaned obviously. I can only imagine what the kitchen looks like. I love cheddars but with the roach crawling around I feel disgusted and I don't think I can ever go back to another cheddars. Not for a while anyway. read more

The staff was great, the wait was short & the food was excellent. Our favorite menu items include the homemade onion rings, Monte Cristo sandwich, chicken strips & bacon cheeseburger. If you bring your children, ask to be seated near the large fish tank. Watching the fish kept our children occupied while waiting for the food to arrive. (As an added bonus, there is an unusual large ceiling fan in the center section that young eyes will enjoy.) read more

Went to Cheddar's for dinner. Hostess said the booths in the bar area reserved for larger parties than 2. Not sure when a booth had to be for larger than 2. Will not be going back. Extremely rude read more

Avoid this place. Probably close to the worst restaurant I have eaten at. Service was fair. Food was horrible. The concept is that everything is made fresh. The loading up of every dish with onions does not qualify as "fresh made". Edamame was inedible - over cooked and limp. Tortilla soup loaded with onions and no chicken. More of a tomato broth. Ribs were 90% fat and generally Inedible. The Baja chicken was tiny with a ton of onion on a bed of overcooked rice and lukewarm black beans. The chef is clearly inexperienced because his or her fingerprints were all over my plate and the attempt to clean the mess left a smear of black beans on the rim of the plate. The ribs and edamame require plates on the side for disposal of pods and bones - neither were provided. Unfortunately no saving grace at all. Hope we don't get sick. Stay AWAY. read more

I love Cheddar's, the food is always great, the prices are very affordable, the atmosphere is nice. You can't miss. I love the Dijon Chicken & Mushrooms, Homemade Chicken Pot Pie, Grilled Chicken Pecan Salad, Chicken Tender Platter. They used to have a mushroom burger, hopefully will bring it back to the menu. I always have a difficult time deciding which one to order, all are wonderful. read more

If I could give 0 stars I would. Living in Sherman there isn't a lot of options but me and my family go to cheddars for a lot of our family events like birthdays, holidays etc. One evening we went for my birthday and the waiter was to busy talking to Thea others coworker it took forever for out food and df Didn't get drinks until the fold came out. We were honestly going to leave but decided to stay because it was already late. So we are having a regular conversation trying to make the best out of the situation and trying to ignore a the horrible customer service we warred getting and then finally my mother asked for the manager because we asked for things and the waitress never brought the items or forgot them and had to go back mutiple times to finally retrieve the items. We talk to the manager to let him know that we weren't happy with the service and explain to him why and he seemed like he wasn't that concerned but he said our meal would be on the house and then ask us to wait a second and then came back and Ask if this was our plan all along to get a free a meal and we were completely caught off guard and got very angry and ask for the check to pay and he rudely walked away and said don't worry about it. Me and my family are all African American and my mother followed him and asked for the GM's information and he laughed in her face and gave her the number and we left without making any type of scene! I haven't been back to this location since. read more

My favorite restaurant in Sherman. Apparently lots of people love this place too. Do not, I repeat, do not come at rush hour. The long line will kill you. Love their baby back ribs. You can combine that with shrimp, chicken. They also have steak. The decoration inside is a bit of tropical style. They have that big fan on the roof. One reason this place is so popular could have something to do with the cheap price. It is a chain restaurant, and that's a con in my prospective. read more

Our party of three had entree salads, which were pretty good and chicken fried steak, which was sub-par (meat a bit tough, not enough gravy and the green beans were way overcooked and flavorless. Main issue is the service. Server was curt almost to the point of being rude. She would disappear and not come back to refill waters, clear plates etc. At one point she'd been AWOL and the manager and three wait staff were standing about five feet away chatting(clearly not about work). We are clearing looking for our server and the manager in particular was too busy socializing to pay attention to his customers. Finally one of the servers nudged him to check in with us. We asked for our server so that we could see the dessert menu. He was clearly disinterested, but did go tell her since she came back with a pissy attitude and said "My manager said you want me?" Really? Clearly this woman is not in her dream career. The best thing about the place is the fabulous salt water fish tank across from the bar. read more

I was Pleasantly surprised considering the reviews. We were seated at about 8pm on a Sunday night the server came slightly after. She was upbeat & pleasant, took our drink orders and knew the menu well enough to make some suggestions. We ordered Key West chicken & tilapia w/shrimp with steamed broccoli and a side salad. It was better than expected! Broccoli was cooked as if the cook would eat it them self minus a little salt & pepper (understandable). The chicken & shrimp had great flavor. We were in & out quickly but never rushed! Prices were great for what we got and would definitely check out some other items on the menu! read more

Loved it the first time, so we came back. Not so hot the second time around. Their new fresh kitchen concept was a great idea. The service couldn't be better. Try the toasted coconut rimmed Piña Colada is super yummy. read more

Food was really good. We like their baby back ribs and shrimp, chicken tenders, and sides were really good as well. Price was reasonable and people were nice. The place looks great as well. read more

It was so much better this time.Not enough gravy but the food tastes much better so I went from 1 star to 5 stars.I don't know the waitress's name but she was sweet and attentive so I tipped her very well. read more

It took a good while for a server to come along and give us a good ol howdy and serve us with drinks. Once he started though he was on the ball with refilling drinks and serving. Food wise it was great. Plenty of food, made well. He even have us our drinks free on the end. Pleasant all around was it got started. read more

Went in Sunday night and sat at the bar for dinner as we've done many times before. Took about 15 minutes to even get acknowledged we were there. got a glass of wine. Took another 20 minutes before we were asked about ordering. Ordered appetizer. 15 minutes to get it. Then after ordering meal we see other people's orders coming out who arrive after us. The bartender never put our food order in. Said he forgot. Said it was really busy. Sorry Brandon: isn't your job to work when it's busy? Been a long time patron but we'll probably never go back. read more

The food was decent but the wait was horrible. We waited an hour for a party of 10 and they sat us at two separate booths that only sit 4 comfortably. Waited on our drinks for over 15 minutes. Regardless of how busy they were, they should of accommodated us better. Sadly disappointed. Not to mention my chicken was raw, disgusted. read more

A rubbery chicken sandwich and cold Mac and cheese. Getting the food out quick is nice but not when it's uncooked smh. The bar was so lifeless I lost a bit of my soul. read more

Great atmosphere and food. Chedders has a diverse menu of steak, burgers, fish and appetizers. Huge portions for your buck. The lunch menu does lack in variety. From the full bar, the signature drink is the pain killer. A limit of 2 person per visit and I must say, that is really all you need. read more

As always, great service, value and food! How they expect one person to eat that buffalo chicken wrapper on their own is crazy! And the hot fudge cake sundae, biggest sundae I've ever been served, 5 of us couldn't finish one! And the cheddars painkiller is OMGreatness! read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Onion rings, tons of them and perfectly cooked! - Comfort Food Near Me - Sherman, Texas

Our meal was wonderful and our server, Caleb, did a great job! The temp was pleasant and, thank goodness, the music was not loud!! You could actually visit without yelling. Overall, a pleasant afternoon experience! read more

I grew up in Sherman, so when we got a Cheddar's I was pumped! Even after going off to college and living in Dallas, I always make a stop here when I visit through. We ususally sit in the bar, ask for Jason (he's awesome and will make you anything he can to make you smile!) and the girls there are very knowledgable. Other than crazy locals or kiddos that may be loud during a lunch rush, the evening dinner crowd isn't too heavy as long as a Twilight movie isn't playing. All in all, I haven't had a problem here and look forward to it when I come through town. read more

The food was good. However, the curbside service is awful. We showed up to pick up our food at the time they said it would be ready, but we had to wait 30 minutes for our food once we got there. Our frozen Margaritas were melted and part of our order was missing. I tried to call to get money back for the food that was missing. I waited on the phone for more than 10 minutes and a manager never answered. read more

The talapia and shrimp with a mango topping was excellent. The service was good. The atmosphere was good except for a child who was shrieking and you can't blame the restaurant for that. read more

The food is amazing! The only issue I actually had was the service. It takes forever for the servers to serve you. However, I can understand that as it gets busy. Again, I love the food. It's great everytime. read more

Walked in on a not-so-busy day and due to an error from the hostess, we got seated in a section that no waitress / waiter got assigned to. Ended up having to wait 30 min for someone to take our drink orders. HOWEVER....upon learning of our problem our waitress and the manager (Tyler) both went ABOVE & BEYOND to make sure my girlfriend and I had a satisfying experience. Really great customer service and I hope someone in the company recognizes them for the hard work they do. 10/10 read more

Tried to go for lunch today. No one was waiting in line but we were asked to provide our phone number to be seated. We ended up leaving after they insisted it was "policy". read more

HORRIBLE! 0 stars if possible. Honestly I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy. My family and I have given this place chance after chance and every time it seems to disappoint more. This last time was the last straw, I called ahead to see what the wait time was and they said about 35-45 minutes. We got there at 7 and they told us the same wait time, granted it was busy we waited our wait time and went and checked with the Hispanic hostess they have and she told us she was still waiting for a table to open up. So we went back to our car and waited. Went back and checked once more and told the same thing. At this point we had waited over an hour and they didn't have anymore people waiting. When I asked her again she replied very rude "we have your number right here and when your table is ready you will receive a call!" So you're telling me that they weren't busy and in that whole restaurant there was only one specific table for my party of 7?? RIDICULOUS! I recommend you take your money and service elsewhere. read more

Ribs are good the ladies room is kinda dirty tho the burgers look burnt the cheese in the grilled cheese looks gross

The food was ok but the wait is literally 2 FRICKING HOURS this may be of covid but also their was a fight in the bar and the manager did about nothing read more

I've loved cheddars for years... stopped in this one on the way home... how do you not have signature menu items??? The main purpose for half of our family to pick this restaurant. No chicken fried(country fried) steak.. no meatloaf... and no monster cookie??? I would have left if we hadn't already ordered drinks and appetizers. And the staff was amazing and the food we did receive was good. I guess in my opinion it's almost equivalent to going to an Italian restaurant that doesn't have lasagna or spaghetti.. it's expected. Just my opinion. read more

I usually love this cheddars. what happened! Our waitress was horrible. Super slow. Waited forever for drinks. Ordered salads to come out before our meal and they came out after our meal came to the table. I took one bite of my fish and it had a bone. Ok that happens. Took a Togo box because my baby got fussy. Went to eat the rest at home. Every bite had a bone in it! I usually feed my daughter the fish and thank God I didnt be cause she would probably be in the hospital! Dont really care to go back. read more

Cheddar's is my favorite restaurant for the value. I love their Seafood. My favorites are the Bourbon Glazed Salmon, Grilled Shrimp, and Blackened Catfish. Their Service is great, especially the Certified Trainers. All the cocktails are awesome, and my favorite is the Grande Margarita. The sides are good too; favorites are the salads (only 99 cents extra with meal), Loaded Baked Potato, Santa Fe Spinach Dip, and the Monster Cookie are a must have. read more

My wife and I stopped by Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen last night and I have to tell everyone what an wonderful experience this was. This our very first experience. We arrived at 6 pm and the parking lot was full and we thought they could be a major wait to get a table. Not the case. Walked in and was immediately seated. The place was packed and now we know why. We both ordered the Grilled Chicken and Pecan Salad ($9.49) and glass of ice tea. This was served with a croissant that had a sweet glaze on top. We also ordered a honey mustard dressing to top everything off. What an amazing choice of salads. Overall we had great service, reasonable prices, and wonderful dining experience. We highly recommend you give this establishment a try. We will definitely be back! read more

The food is good but the service is terrible u should not have to ask for boxes and your check and more to drink our server didn't even bring our food someone else did and I wish we would have gotten him for a server because he was awesome if I could give no stars I would and to our server we didn't tip u because u did a good job we tipped u because I'm a manager at a restaurant and I know u guys don't make that much and u rely on tips read more

First let me say my burger and fries tasted good but that's were it stoped. First our waiter took our drink order I asked for a particular type of drink. Neither him or the bartender new if they did. I looked at menu and noticed they did. I asked for no salt on rim came out with salt. He did switch with new glass. Then the chip and queso came out and the bowl of salsa had spilled on plate and most of the chips either broken or greasy. The burger came out and the plate was messy the toppings were all under the fries, a very poor presentation. Our waiter was nice enough but was either or just not cut out for this line of work. Not everybody can do it well. read more

Went to Chedders in Sherman, Tx today for lunch. I usually get their catfish for lunch. Their catfish is great and I was looking forward to eating some catfish but they removed it from the menu. I asked the waitress about it being removed a d her reply was, it has always been whitefish(swai) which I know different. Then she said it was the same fish, which I know is different. She also said they did not tell her anything different. She also said that catfish is not local... but when you look at the menu, it plainly states that the swai is imported. Looks like I am eating my last time at Chedders. read more
