The place can be hard to get a parking spot. But for years, Cheddars has always offered a real value to their entrees. And the entrees are all pretty good. Good flavor generally speaking. Service is always good. Overall, a good place to dine. read more

I'm going to be a bit controversial. I do not like this restaurant their croissants... they're not even croissants but they don't taste great and they're very sticky. My French husband disapproves of them strongly. The food selection is big but I haven't had anything that is extraordinary. Everything is just bland, but you do get quite a bit of food. The only thing I would recommend is the Cookie Monster, which is less of a monster than it used to be. I never look forward to coming here to eat and wasting my money. It's not super affordable either and I don't remember it ever being that read more

Thursday evening visit, first visit at this location. Although the server was nice, the service wasn't great. It might have been a kitchen issue, but either way the wait time to receive items was long. The entrees arrived before the complimentary croissants did. The raspberry lemonade was very light on flavor. The strawberry lemonade was much better. No issues with the entrees/ sides. My party sat in the bar area. read more

went to cheddars today about 130 with wife and another couple Stephanie our waitress was super good kept my Dr Pepper filled. Kept all water glasses filled checked on us. It's a correct time. Did a super job now let's talk about the food I ordered chicken strips mashed potatoes and corn mashed potatoes and corn. Nothing to brag about the chicken strips were cold and tasted like they've been laying none of the heat lamp for a while wife ordered fish. She said it was OK but fd's is much better. The other couple said that their mail was OK. They also ordered chicken strips. They said it was OK. Nothing special. I'm giving cheddars three generous stars on account of Stephanie. She did a great job. read more

My first time trying cheddars and I was so impressed! Service was amazing and I'm still dreaming about those croissants we got at the beginning. I feel like prices are so fair for what you get and I was so happy with my shrimp pasta, it was absolutely delicious and the shrimp had great flavor. I'll definitely be coming back next time I'm by one! read more

I was seated immediately when I walked in, which was a good thing, but then there was a couple of guys that were seated after me and the waitress automatically went to them first which was strike one and then she brings me out my croissant that I look forward to when I'm eating at cheddars and she said we're out of honey butter here's your plain croissant I didn't want a plain called me, hon about three times us older women do not like that. but back to the croissant when I refused it, she went to the two gentlemen that she had waited on before me, and proceeded to tell them how I told her to take it back, which I thought was very rude. The food was awesome service not so much. read more

We both ordered the grilled chicken pecan salad. The salad was very fresh with a good amount of ingredients on it. Our server was quick and attentive. She brought out warm croissants with butter streamed on them. They were heavenly. We are from out of town and we are not familiar with the Cheddars Scratch kitchen restaurant, but we would most definitely come again read more

Yum! The aroma of grilling steaks hit me right in the feels when I exited our vehicle and I knew right then what I would be ordering. I've resisted going to Cheddars when visiting my parents in the past solely due to it being a franchise (because I enjoy dining in small, independent businesses as much as possible). Tonight Mom won the choice of restaurant so off we went! I'm sorry I was such a "food snob" before because I will definitely be back! :) We were greeted by a sweet hostess with a sincere smile upon arrival and were seated immediately. Shelby L. was a very personable & exceptional lserver and took really great care of us. Our drinks were refilled without asking and even before they were fully empty. That's attention to detail that we appreciate! She made our side salads fresh to order and brought them out before our dinner just as requested. The side salads were basic, but fresh and the honey lime dressing & Caesar dressing was really good. The complimentary croissants dripping in honey butter were addictive! Yum. Dinner - my ribeye came out perfectly medium rare just as ordered and the green beans were very flavorful with onions and a bit of something sweet that we couldn't place. I would definitely order this meal again. A huge 12 ounce ribeye so I took half home and half of my green beans and I am really stuffed! Their food is a great value too! My Mom gets chicken pot pie every time and I tried some and it was really delicious with huge chunks of chicken (which she complained about because she had to cut them up and it was a little difficult). but I think it's great. I told her that's a great first world problem to have. LOL! My Dad ordered the meatloaf and while he said he has had better, he had no problem eating every last morsel. I think he made a mistake, Mom and I both have great leftovers for tomorrow's lunch! Cheddars' parking lot is always full and I can see why. Great food at a great price keeps loyal customers coming back. read more

Went here, as we needed sustenance. We got sustenance. Ugh. So, the staff is friendly, more than most places. The meal starts off with these honey butter drizzled croissants that are heavenly. The problem is that the gem of the meal was that. I got beer battered shrimp, with rice and corn. The flavorless shrimp was cooked but there were a few spots where it seemed close to the edge of uncooked. The rice and corn were unremarkable. My wife's chicken dish with a salad was bland and compared to Dennys, save the creamy blue cheese dressing that somehow made a positive impression. We don't know how the place is doing so well as to be a chain employing 23,000 people, but then again Dennys has been in business for ages as well. read more

This is a very typical Cheddars. (Take that as you will) In our experience today and every time we dine, the service is efficient and respectful, sometimes even funny. Today Jordan was our server- great job. The food was all hot and flavorful so we cannot complain. It is a louder restaurant but that doesn't take away from the quality of the dining experience. Hats off to you cheddars for being overall pretty decent. read more

Came here when I was shopping in the primrose shopping center. There was a little bit of a wait they were busy. But service was fairly quick and food was good. I ordered the spinach dip, came with chips and salsa. I also ordered the buffalo chicken wrap , came with coleslaw as a side and raspberry lemonade. Very good read more

Cheddars started delivery recently and we ordered at 6 pm. Through the website directly. Cheddars then dispatch's the delivery to uber eats. I saw the driver at Cheddars on the link cheddars sends you. The driver acknowledged getting my food. I received a call at 8:30 from cheddars that the driver never picked up the food. I messaged the driver to let them know I knew they didn't pick up my order and at that point he was 6 minutes from my house he then turned around to go get it. Then proceeded to cancel my order. I highly recommend getting rid of uber eats. The restaurant remade it but it was cold when we got home and just not worth $45 in my opinion. Just go dine in if wanting cheddars. I will also add that because I ordered through the cheddars website directly, uber eats could not refund me or remove the tip or anything my they told me the store couldn't assist and I'd have to call cheddars corporate. We will see if I hear back. read more

We came during supper hour with family. Ordered Loaded baked potato soup and side salad, chicken pot pie, grilled chicken pecan salad , spinach dip. Generous portions for reasonable price. Loved the complimentary croissants. The Margarita ordered from the bar was weak--4 stars. Attentive staff, clean restaurant and bathroom. Would return. Edited to add menu pics read more

We always enjoy our dinner at Cheddars. One of the best in Springfield Mo. Yesterday we had Madison for our server and she was excellent. We called ahead for a table and when we walked in we got a seat immediately! Everything was great. Thank you! read more

My wife and I frequent this location and have never had an issue with the service or food. That all changed last Monday 5/11/2026. Our server was very initiative to the point I was ready to walk up to the bar to get refills myself. When he did bring our drinks (sweet tea and unsweet tea) he had them wrong. My order was not correct, and the spin dip was burnt, the chips so salty and stale you could hardly eat them. The chicken in my wife's order had a very off-putting flavor. We had to leave before talking to the manager, but I did send an email to the location as soon as we got home, explaining our frustrations. I have not received any communication back from them yet. Do better Cheddars. read more

Out of croissant rolls!!!!! Very disappointing we were all looking to forward to that part. Would not recommend this location.

I've eaten at Cheddars for years now. I usually get the chicken tenders with honey mustard and I could drink the honey mustard sauce. It's so good. I've had their onion rings and chicken fried steak and they were both very good. They give you a lot of food and are not expensive. just don't go at a busy time cause you may have to wait quite a while. The Waite staff has always been very attentive and very nice. I forgot their barbecue ribs are awesome. read more

Cheddar's is a chain restaurant that is consistently clean and has great service wherever I've visited them across the country. This evening was no exception. We sat at a high top in the bar area so had no wait. The bartender was our waitress and she was super friendly. Drinks and food both came out promptly. If they still have the watermelon margarita when you read this - it's a must order! So refreshing on a hot summer day. read more

Unsalted fries NO YESTERDAY NO FLAVOR AT ALL SHOW learn to salt your fries they are are bad really bad

We loved it, had the experience of going into it THREE times in one day. Not so much deliberately, but the road is crazy busy and we had time between shows. We had breakfast in the morning. Then left and went into a couple of tourist traps, then went to an afternoon show. We wanted to try a place in the downtown, but they were closed. Second time was for coffee, tea and a dessert. The theater was only a few blocks away from the second show we went to. Then it was getting late and driving discovered most places were closing so back to Cheddars. Want to emphasize that if we didn't enjoy the ambiance and food we would have never returned. Lastly, we had dinner. We both had the Chicken Fried steak. It tasted great even though we were very hungry by then. The price was reasonable and everything was very good. For me, there was much more breading than was necessary, but I simply took some of the bottom. It was more than enough for both of us so some was left. read more

The way I was just treated in place way sooo wrong I wanted to cry ..... made me feel like this place doesn't welcome "my people" .... If you know what I mean.....The waitress lied and said she didn't hear my order but yet I was still charged for it. I had to wait for my food while my partner eat. I kept asking for help and didn't receive it til my partner was all done with her food. So basically I paid to watch my partner eat and get treated like I'm less human..... read more

We went in 30 minutes before closing so we got what we got....we are driving thru again for work. We love Cheddars - we do not have one in Cali so it's a treat when we visit gma in Springfield while working in this area. Usually it's fresh tasting, hot, and delicious. Not tonight. Our potato soups were lukewarm. The croissants with honey butter were cold. My sweet carrots were not as sweet as usual, but enough to enjoy them. We were seated in the bar where Emily was packed & busy & ready to go home. She was kind enough to throw in extra croissants with our to go order. We will back, but hopefully earlier ;-) read more

We enjoy Cheddars, but due to the excessive snow in and around the handicap parking, we weren't able to get to the front door. Ironically, the path to the parking area, and the parking area itself, for people picking up food to-go was extremely clear of snow. read more

Our waiter who was also the bartender was very attentive and had a great personality. I just wish our steaks were as wonderful. The sides were good, but both my friend and I only ate half of our ribeye's which was something to remark on as we love steaks. They were overcooked on one side and had way to much gristle in them. In the end his dog found the remainder we took home and gave him acceptable, but I don't think either of up plan on going back here in the future. read more

My extended family and I met at Cheddars for a birthday lunch after a number of years away, mostly due to Covid. It doesn't matter where you live, the Cheddars are usually very busy and the quality and value is good and consistent. This visit was no exception even though we picked an early lunch and on a Monday. We were a party of seven and expected to have a wait for a table but we were seated in less than 10 minutes by a very friendly and conversational hostess. Our server greeted us fairly quickly, was very chipper and took our drink orders. Things really slowed down at this point. It was probably 15 minutes before we all got our drinks (other than water,) and another 15 or so minutes before we were able to order one appetizer. After another 15 minutes I flagged down a supervisor looking young lady to ask assistance. She was very friendly and assured us she'd check on our app. She came out with it shortly and said they'd take it off the bill for our wait. That was nice and appreciated but we soon discovered the spinach dip to be lukewarm and overcooked. During all this time our server checked on us occasionally but seemed to disappear after our encounter with the supervisor. Sadly after another 20-30 minutes our entrees arrived. All were good, including the ribs, pecan salads, chicken fried steak and my favorite, chicken pot pie. I miss the wonderful onion rings that are no longer on the menu. I totally get that there are significant issues with finding enough staff these days though I have no idea where millions of American workers have gone within most all sectors in all parts of the US. Anyhoo, I am grateful for those workers who do their best and are probably stressed because they are stretched too thin. Suffice it to say, this experience at Cheddars wasn't great, especially for a birthday but with the exception of the appetizer, the quality of the food was still pretty good. I'm not sure that we will return to this particular location again. read more

Always a good meal at Cheddars! The menu is reasonably priced for the portions - my husband & I split the pork chop lunch/dinner entree. And the warm honey buttered croissants are the best! read more

The food was delicious and the rolls was hot and very testie. Thanks for great service

Was my first time visiting this cheddar's on south primrose in Springfield mo. Went there with my mother and my wife for my mother's birthday dinner. While my wife and my mother's meals were hot and by all accounts edible the chicken Alfredo I ordered with garlic bread was really bad. From the first bite I could tell something was very off. One it was luke warm. The other it was very salty. My wife got the servers attention and I told her" I can't eat this it is way too salty and it is luke warm". She said" I will take it back" and recommend I order something else from the menu.." to go. OK I wanted to eat my meal with my wife and my mother at the restaurant. There meals were fine. Mine was a total disaster. I'm hungry I want my food now at that moment. Not to go. I ordered a burger and some fries and the server left after taking my order. By now my mother and my wife have both finished there meals. And both are very frustrated and upset that I couldn't eat my meal with them. Seeing it was my mom's birthday they both ordered a dessert. Meanwhile I'm still waiting for my food. That I was told by or server was to go. So I wait. And wait some more. By now both my wife and mother are beyond mad. My food arrives. In a to go bag. This is not what I wanted. The server sits it on the table says sorry the kitchen is backed up and leaves. She comes back and we pay the bill.( a pricey one at that.) And I'm having to take my meal home to eat. Will I be back? No I won't. I wasn't offered to have a different meal cooked there so I could eat with my wife and mother. I was told my meal was to go. I waited around hungry. For what I paid I expected better service. read more

The food was absolutely heaven! Our meals came fast and warm and REALLY tasty. The service was excellent as well. The people were very friendly and sweet, always on top of everything.

Filthy restroom which smelled like an outhouse. The eating area had food all over the floor. Looked like it hadn't been vacuumed in days. Kiosk batteries were dead. Waited couldn't get a receipt from our server since she had disappeared. Service was slow, the food mediocre. I won't go back. read more

Always love their food. Many great choices. Love their food atmosphere. Casual dining at its finest

This was a good place for dinner on my second night in town. Food was very good and good value for price. Carrot cake was great but I took off a star because the drinks are mixed weak - was told that is corporate policy. If I pay for a drink I do expect it to be comparable to any other bar - strength wise. Overall was very good other than that and I would still recommend them and would eat here again. read more

I went here with my wife and had a okay experience it wasn't great but it wasn't bad. The service was very professional and very helpful as far as the food the food was not good. I had a chicken pot pie and it had no real seasoning to it and the chicken they had with it my wife got the chicken Alfredo she said it was probably one of the worst Alfredo's she's had in a restaurant. We also got a side salad and 2 croissants that was probably the best part of our meal the ranch was good with the salad and the croissants were fresh and great tasting. read more

We love the cheddars in Branson but our experience at this one has not been very good. We sat came in at around 3:30, place is not busy at all. Sat at dirty bar and eventually after about 10 minutes girl shows up to take our drink order. She was going to take our food order but we were not ready. Got our drinks and after that both bartenders never asked us if we needed anything or ready to order or looked at us again. Husband was ready for another drink and we were ready to order. Gave up after 20 minutes and left without eating. read more
