This is the first time I have ever been offered hot honey butter, croissants. And they're actually on the house... The service is great. No bathroom tissue in the first stall of the women's restroom even the backup roll was gone, angry full, girl face. B-) Other than that, everything was good. read more

I've never eaten at this chain before but I was pretty impressed! I picked up a family member from the airport so we arrived to this restaurant as soon as they opened around 11:00am. It was almost empty except for 2 other groups but the service was a little slow as I'm sure everyone was still opening up for the day. Luke was our waiter and did a good job, but pretty melancholy. Service did pick up once more groups arrived. All the food was delicious- especially the onion rings! Sometimes, chicken fried chicken can be oily or greasy but it was fresh and crispy. read more

Yummy lunch with my son with my son yesterday & Cheddars never misses. I had a pot pie & side kale salad. That kale salad was so good!!! The pot pie was very flavorful and it was bigger than it looked! Their chicken tenders are truly under rated they are so good. Crispy lite & just delicious! read more

Server was so kind, timely and helpful! They gave us free croissants and a free cake (don't even know why), and all the food was really good! Will absolutely be coming back time and time again, who knows maybe even tomorrow. read more

5 stars for service, food was typical chain restaurant meal. We don't have this place in California so it was worth a shot.

Each time I'm in Denver I hit Cheddar's. It's one family chain that hits pretty hard in terms of affordability and quality of offerings that we don't have in California. And having rainbow trout on regular menu is always a big plus. Theirs is some of the most solid, dependable, and delicious compared to their competitors. I loved how each flaky but delivered on its promise of scrumptiousness and subtlety. I would come here just for that honestly, though I've heard it's a great lunch place as well. The big letdown for both of us last night was the service. They were slow to take our orders, slow to get refills or ask if we needed anything, and slow to get us our bill. It was a trifecta of ineffectiveness. Our server was nice enough, but he definitely didn't make us feel like we were a priority at all. And that's something you should never do as a restaurant. The place was nice-looking enough and they had good energy from its patrons. It's just a shame the lack of good service kind of ruins the experience and makes us not want to visit this particular branch again on a return visit, whenever that might be. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Because you're stuck out in the same 'ole storm again Grilled Rainbow Trout from #CheddarsThornton - American Near Me - Thornton, Colorado

A solid 3.5 stars! Cheddar's is a chain restaurant specializing in southern classics - think ribs, catfish, chicken fried chicken. They are also known for honey butter croissants (now a side) and great chicken tenders. And just like any good southern restaurant, they also have great sides- Broccoli and cheese casserole, Mac and cheese, Green Beans - and you can order a vegetable plate!! My husband ordered steak and ribs - it came with two sides for $24. The ribs were fall off the bone tender - So good! We found the kind of steak to be chewy but it was overall good. The broccoli and cheese casserole was just like mama makes- ooh to die for! A baked potato was sizable and loaded with tons of butter and cheese. I got lemon pepper catfish over rice which came with two sides for $19. The catfish definitely could have used more seasoning. The Mac and cheese was good. It was cafeteria style with a velveeta sauce texture - and I know that's someone's preference for sure. Overall, we left satisfied feeling like we had a good dinner for the price point. The atmosphere is cute, like a steakhouse with lots of intimate tables and booths. This a great place to eat for someone vegetarian or pescatarian. I would certainly come back again and order a vegetable plate or the ribs! read more

Huge parking lot and plenty of comfort inside, with booths, back room with surround windows. Greeting at the front was welcoming! One impressive part is the creative ceiling fans keeping the place "Perfectly temperature" for large crowds with greenery reaching upwards towards the light. Service!!! WOW everyone was on top of our order, meaning Aspen my service dog and, Aspen knew she was getting a Hamburger!! Unfortunately, it comes with a Garlic glaze, this is great for humans, immediately - without a word, my Service lady with wide eyes, stated this is not good for your baby, I'm ordering a plain one, sooo sorry for the mistake. I giggled and appreciated amazing service - impecable through our lunch!! This is considered "Comfort food!!!" (Not a vegetarian/vegan place except "Salad") Order the Tilapia (white fish?) with Mango!! The White or Tilapia fish was perfectly cooked, with crispy edges and very tender white meat, a nice healthy serving.......The fish was topped with savory small/medium shrimp on rice with a spartan of veggies and "Picante cubed mango." The picante mango was a startling surprise, given most mild fish are embellished in its own flavor. The cubed Picante was a shock to my palate; YET!!! I ATE THE ENTIRE DISH Accompanied with Waffled Sweet Potato fries & butter corn in a cup. The waffle sweet potato fries come in a fun tin and get a bit soggy towards the bottom; yet rather tasty. Aspen's burger, well see the photos, she eats with manners and loved the burger. Cheddar's Scratch is a chain restaurant, with similar menues. Their service is impecable, while I did ask for the booth inside the large part of the restaurant. What was most lovely were the rotating fans under a sky light and ?? I believe a fish tank in the background; the interior temperature is perfect. Along with the service. My apologies for the lack of photos, I took many, and I guess my puter was hungry, they were eaten!!! Highly recommend Cheddar's Scratch for families!!!! Lots of parking!! read more

The food is always amazing and it's a good place to go eat if you're ballin on a budget!

Our first time. The lime chicken breasts were a weird texture. The server was slow to refill my water and to bring to go boxes. He seemed to only be able to serve one table at a time. read more

Yummy. I had the BBQ ribs, with the cheesy broccoli casserole and corn. All were awesome. The ribs just fell off the bones. I've discovered a new place to go! read more

Trey was our server and he was persistent stopping by asking if we needed anything and didn't stop by when we were busy with our meals. Great experience. 10 out of 10 would recommend read more

Service is poor the staff asked me if I would like to sit outside when it's over 97 outside is fucking wild also to sit there and wait over 15 minutes for the bill after my family got tired of waiting. I sat at the table for an extra 10 mins waiting for these waitress. My family and I both ordered chicken tenders which would require some sort of sauce to dip it in. They bring in one BBQ sauce in a small container so small it was enough for two bites. This place is terrible the staff is even worse I didn't see one white person working there maybe that's why I received poor service because we are white ? Wtf kinda place is that. I've received better service from McDonald's I would never go here to eat ever again it wasn't worth what we paid for it the food was quality of chilis. And priced like a top notch steakhouse. Let's sit outside when it's 98 outside and have heat stroke. read more

We dine at Cheddars in Thornton, Colorado frequently and normally walk away satisfied with both the service and food quality. Yesterday was certainly a disappointment due to the server was simply mediocre which we can live with but the food quality was certainly below grade. We both had the chicken fried steak (CFS) dinner which is normally excellent. Today's CFS was tough and had more gristle than meat. The breading was very tasty but again the steak patty was not. We both love CFS and after chatting about it agreed that the CFS was substandard and therefore we'll look for another restaurant. read more

Well, tonight was disappointing. We ordered buffalo chicken wraps to go chips and queso and a cheesecake. The chicken wraps were very disappointing that chicken so veiny you couldn't even chew it and if there was chicken, it had so much breading on it. It was disgusting... And the chips and queso well I guess that's my fault for thinking that queso could make it to go.. Definitely don't do that to go queso it doesn't turn out very well. It was one big clump of cheese... Bartender was very nice both of them. I only sat at the bar so I don't know how clean the restaurant was I didn't use the bathroom. read more

OMG! Amazing experience top to bottom. Being from out of state for a softball tournament Keilani was so much help in serving us amazing food as well as great suggestions on things to do in the area! She was so pleasant and we never went needing anything! On top of her game! 10/10! read more

never ate here before but after tonight, i'm sold!!! Everything came out an a timely manner. Our server was excellent and helpful with the menu! Inside the restaurant was amazing,loved the fish tank. If you've never tried Cheddars my suggestion is that you do! ps-steak was perfection! read more

This is a very good option for American food. They have a lot on their menu so there's something for everyone. Our group was happy with all the food we ordered. The baby back ribs were a standout and were really delicious. The restaurant seemed clean and was decorated in a warm, modern style. Our server was really on top of things and didn't skip a beat. One problem was the soda. Both types that were ordered tasted off. Perhaps there was a problem with their machine but in the grand scheme of things, it wasn't a big deal. We look forward to dining here again. read more

Highly disappointed. We paid $118 for three adults and one child, which is incredibly expensive for the poor quality we received. The chicken was rubbery, and the food completely lacked flavor. To make matters worse, the waitstaff and greeters treated us like we were a bother. Save your money and tastebuds. No thank you, Cheddar's! read more

Pain killers are terrific and all the food is great too. This is my favorite place to eat lunch or dinner. Best best best!!!

We've eaten at Cheddar's a number of times, and the food is consistently delicious. Some of my favorites are the bbq ribs, bourbon glazed salmon, steak, Asian salad and the hunny butter croissants. The service is consistently great, and the restaurant is lovely and very clean. We'll definitely be back for more! read more

My husband and I really like this location! Our server, Giovanni was super friendly and made my husbands birthday really special. I got the monte cristo on the pick 2 lunch special with a salad. The monte cristo is always good, and it's deep fried just how I like it! The jam it is served with MAKES the sandwich though and I wish I had asked for extra. Our favorite drink is the painkiller- love the tropical flavors and the honey coated rim with coconut. My husband got the chicken fried chicken- he said it was good, although he might try the chicken fried steak next time to compare. The sweet potato fries with honey mustard are life, and a must. Love cheddars for its affordability and easy going atmosphere- we will definitely be back! read more

All around good restaurant, food is always very good and and nice variety. Looking forward to trying more from menu

We chose this spot because my godmother was in from Albuquerque New Mexico. There was 15 of us that gathered to have lunch together. We were seated promptly. They have a bar area and a seated restaurant area. The bar area is in closed so we don't hear any of the TVs that are on as you were sitting in the restaurant enjoying your family time the inside had these really cool, wicker leaf looking fans. It was nice and cool in there. Very large variety on the menu as well as the wine list. , Margaritas and Colorado Craft Beer. We were treated kindly and respectful, which is a big plus for me how drinks came out salads came out except for my husbands salad so he ended up eating his salad after his meal came out. He wasn't too pleased about that.On the menu they have combination plates with steak and shrimp, etc. That was the plate that my husband ordered, and when it came to the table, it was child size servings. The rice and shrimp came in a finger bowl. The steak was small, but cooked to perfection. The salad was great. Came with hot croissants. All in all, we had a great time the food was good and hot! We stood outside and took family photos exchanged hugs and prayed to see each other again! I want to give this experience 4 1/2 stars I do recommend it, so I hope you go out and check it out yourself! Thanks For The Read Until Next Time..... read more

Everything was delicious. Friendly staff, great food and quantity is huge. Chicken tenders and the Monte Cristo, were excellent.

We went for a lunch to celebrate my moms birthday and the manager was creeping my wife out so bad that hours later she still feels odd. He was staring at her and a girl at the table behind us as well. read more

Party of four and we came for lunch. I can't say enough good things regarding this chain. They had everything down to a "T", service, cleanliness, food quality and service were all on point. I want to say hats off and the kitchen staff for some of the best possible food service around. All of our meals were absolutely delicious! Extra kudos for the Monte Cristo sandwich. This one is hard for a restaurant to get right. Cheddars was able to make it both hot on melty on the inside as well as the out. My daughters' ribs were fall of the bone delicious! The loaded baked potato was also awesome! No bacon though. They had it ready for an extra charge. Overall, we really had an awesome lunch at a very reasonable price. read more

Good comfort food in a quiet ambience. Good service too. Not fancy, casual attire. We've been here several times. My only suggestion would be to add liver and onions to the menu. Regardless, there's plenty of good comfort food on the menu and I enjoy everything I've eaten here. read more

Just left one minute ago. Walked in and the hostess gave us a look, like what the hell do you want. I was wondering why the parking lot was so empty. Not a word from her. Just grabbed menus and sat us without a single word. We decided to spend our money where we at least felt welcomed My first and last Cheddars experience. read more

Cheddars is always very good! The restaurant is always clean, and the service is always top-notch!! The food is always very good as well. The Monte Cristo always comes crispy on the outside and hot and gooey on the inside! The fries are always fresh and nicely seasoned. The mushroom burger was cooked medium just like I ordered, and all of the ingredients tasted very fresh! My only complaint is they are ALWAYS slow! No matter how busy or slow the restaurant is it always seems to take forever to get your food!! read more

My friend recommended we go here and it was packed on a Friday night with a line out the door. We out our name on the wait list for 2 and we actually only had to wait 15 mins. The restaurant has a lot of seating so you actually don't have to wait too long. The menu is pretty expansive with a lot of choices. I chose the grilled tilapia, and my friend chose the chicken. We also ordered the specialty fries. The specialty fries was good, but I would have preferred different cheese. I liked the mango salsa on my tilapia but the tilapia itself was just ok tasting. The shrimp that came with it was good. The side broccoli had no flavor, but the side string beans were good. I tasted my friends chicken, which was decent. The prices were good and the service was good. All in all in average experience and meal. read more

So, first time we are trying this place. We're pleasantly surprised of how great this place is! We always see a full parking lot here so we assumed it was always packed. We came in at 7:45pm and it was literally only a 5 min wait! Oh the prices too are still very good for what you're getting. A $7 margarita? Yes, that would be fabulous. Thank you. Plus, I would see most people walking out with leftovers. Which, means that the portions are good. Oh, let me add this. I saw a 12+ group of people, and instead of letting one waitress handle it all, we saw at least 6 of her coworkers helping and bring out food/drinks. That was great to see. We'll be coming back to try some of their other dishes. Broccoli casserole was good, ribs were solid, and chicken tenders were crispy. We'll be back to try more. read more

we ate here on our last night in Westminster suburb of Denver. I was pleasantly surprised the service was great quick attentive. The atmosphere was OK. Not too loud like someplace can get the food was really good. Everybody enjoyed their meals. It was a nice place to be for our last night together with family before we had to go home. We were there for my husband's sisters memorial and come to find out. This place was one of her favorites found that out after I made the reservation so that was a really nice surprise and we will most likely be back in the future. read more

I would have to say I was pretty underwhelmed when dinning here. This is your typical Darden franchised restaurant. They have a wide array of items on the menu but the quality is pretty low. (However, it's a franchise!). Within the building they do have tons of seating and offer huge booths which are great for groups. They also offer alcoholic drinks for a pretty decent price ($5.99) currently today. My sister and I ordered a Monte Cristo and I would say I was highly disappointed. The bread was mushy and soft and the there was little filling inside it. I probably won't go back for another 5 years - and when that time comes I will not order the Monte Cristo. Cheers! read more

Went there with a huge group of 20 on a Friday night and they were fantastic. Service was outstanding and food was great as well.

We went on a Saturday night, it was packed for seating. I checked out the bar and found a booth! Service was very good! We were a group of four. We had chicken fried chicken, tilapia, salmon and the chicken pot pie. Food was plentiful and as expected, very good. read more

Quoted 20 min for a wait, but it was only 5 min.!!!! Score!!! The menu is massive. Something for everyone. I ordered the vegetable plate where you get to pick 4 sides AND it comes with an salad for $11!! The chicken and kale salad that my husband was a tad bit on the salty side. Not sure if it was due to the vinaigrette. Service was slow. Unbelievably slow which probably made up for the quick seating so it all washed out in the end. read more
