I've only been once so it may not be a fair review but our service was not very good. We were in a section with a huge party and our waitress seemed overwhelmed serving the rest of the smaller tables like ours. Food was very late, things we asked for were forgotten. I will give this place a chance again because people tell me good things, but our first visit wasn't enjoyable. read more

Very good stuff. The restaurant is set up into two sections, a large bar area and a large dining area, so yes it does get loud. My wife and I had the chicken fried chicken and the fish fillets. We ordered the dinner portions, since it was dinner time, and both came with two meats, making them large dinners. The chicken was very moist and delicious, as was the fish. The Texas toast and mashed potatoes were also good. They never brought croissants to us, but those looked good. We also had a sweet tea, which was delicious. Tip: you can use the Yelp app to check wait times and to check in that you are coming. read more

Thornton location is always a great place for a casual meal and cocktails. Service is always quick! Not too pricey either.

We had the queso appetizer, which was delicious. I had the salad and sandwich combo. The salad comes with a buttery croissant - amazing. My husband had the chicken fried steak and it was top notch. Service was wonderful. Everything was timely and the restaurant's ambiance was wonderful. Very easy-going while still being respectable. read more

I like the feel of Cheddar's, open, contemporary, upscale. Everything I have ordered has been great except as in other restaurants, the soup isn't always hot! read more

Didn't take a pic, but our Grilled chicken Alfredo came out cold!!! Guess whose meal that was?!?! Moms!!!! The one that cooks and cleans every meal!!! Didn't even get a hot meal going out to eat! Not sure we will be going back, unfortunately definitely could not recommend them! read more

Mediocre review for mediocre food. Not sure why the food is either too bland or too salty at this location. Saving grace is the butter croissants otherwise I have to remind myself that this is a chain restaurant.. read more

Pretty good food, nice lunch fare and selection with very good portions for the price. Fairly typical atmosphere like a TGIF's, Appleby's etc which is pleasant enough. read more

Im not really a chain restaurant kinda gal but I was excited to try this place because of the diverse menu and there's usually a wait which is pretty indicative that people enjoy it! Three of us, two adults and a child, arrived on a Wednesday around 7pm and were seated immediately. I scrolled through the menu undecided for a long time, the waitress came back three times. Wanting to order everything on the menu didnt seem practical. Finally I narrowed it down to two, the New Orleans Pasta or Chicken Pot Pie. I wanted the New Orleans Pasta without sausage (I don't eat pork), but our waitress let us know that's not an option. Shoot! But she did make a recommendation, I got the chicken alfredo with the cajun alfredo sauce and a side salad. The child has quite the appetite so she got a small steak with French fries and broccoli. The adult that accompanied me ordered chicken strips and shrimp combo with fries, mixed veggies and a ceaser salad. The salads came out and our waitress let us know that the croissants were going to take some time. My friend was waiting on the edge of her seat for these croissants. We finished our salads and were still waiting on the croissants and I think our waitress could feel my friends agony because when they finally came out she said she threw in an extra for the wait. I love croissants but I didn't really get what the hype was about. The food finally came out! This pasta was AMAZING! Just the right about of heat, a great amount of sauce covering my noodles! Yum! This was an overall excellent dinning experience! Our waitress was very knowledgeable about the menu and super friendly and the food was amazing! I definitely understand the wait. Will definitely be back. read more

Cheddars is such an amazing place to go with your family for lunch or dinner. The staff is amazing and they are so kind the food is also amazing being so fresh and delicious. They always accommodate to peoples need wether it is a party of 2 or 10. And one server named Ashleigh is so kind and we look forward to our visits every time. read more

Delicious place. All their food is delicious and tastes fresh. They really take the time to make delicious food. Good portions.

If you are looking for a casual spot with good food at a good price, this is your spot! Every time we go here it's really good service, good food (especially the burgers), and really affordable prices. Great place to bring a family or larger party. read more

This place has all things good ole comfort food. They have the comfort classics such as pot pie, chicken fried steak or club sandwich along with other options like Asian salad. The drink menu is awesome and they have many great options to choose from. Service was good, little slow given it wasn't very busy the time we went. Ambiance is not what you would expect with the menu they offer. Feels more upscale and high end with the decor and style. Definitely a nicer sit down with friends or for business type feel. Overall a nice place if your craving classic comfort foods. read more

I have to be totally honest, but I have been avoiding this place since they opened it in Thornton. A few people that I work with said that this place was "not good", "the food had no flavor", and someone even said "it was gross"... My father-in-law invited my wife and I out to dinner last night and guess where it was?? You guessed it! Cheddar's. Here's my take on why I gave it 5 stars... For starters, this place is decorated nicely. The restaurant was also kept very clean, even in the midst of a Friday dinner rush. All of the staff the we encountered were helpful and friendly. I believe our server's name was Harold, and he was awesome! Super friendly and knowledgeable in regards to the HUGE menu that Cheddar's offers. The food: the food was great and had tons of flavor. My wife ordered the Philly which was great (yes, I took a bite). I ordered the club sandwich and it was right on point. I also believe my mother-in-law ordered the Monticristo, which looked amazing! We also ordered appetizers (spinach dip/croissants) BOTH fantastic! You definitely need to order a few of the croissants! They are to die for... Overall a great experience and I will discontinue avoiding this place like the plague and we will definitely find our way back to Cheddar's in the very near future ! read more

Great food and service. Jennifer took awesome care of me at the bar. The apple pie is literally the best over ever had!

Wasn't too bad! I wasn't expecting much since this place resembles a restaurant in Florida that was mediocre. But to my pleasant surprise it was good. My steak was cooked perfectly and didn't need any sauce or additives. I did order the steak and ribs and I took off a star for the ribs. I was NOT a fan of the baby back ribs. They were fattier than the average ribs and I didn't care for the sauce it had. Too sweet and just a lot of fat surrounding all the meat was a turn off. I hardly finished them and I love ribs so that sucked. Also order the fudge cake for desert and it was huge!! You need like 3 or 4 people to finish it. It was good, wish it came warm though. But overall I was satisfied, just the ribs broke my heart. read more

Best food and service every time. Hands down the BEST food and drinks at an awesome price!

Solid,, through and through. Basic chain-vibe middle America bistro fare, but executed very well and affordable and with a smiley.The best option for a couple miles in a foodie desert. read more

My expectations for this place were unbelievably low. But credit where credit is due, it was not bad at all. It's a chain so go ahead and temper your enthusiasm. But damn, i really felt like some of the items were made from scratch. Usually when i take my kids to places like this and they order mac and cheese, you know what you're going to see. The box Kraft powder mac and cheese. And that's usually fine cause kids don't give a shit, that's the one they want. But this was a pretty legit mac and cheese and it seemed to be made from scratch. I ordered the monte cristo and it was great as well. And it was hot when it came to my table and i really like when i get my food and it's hot. Overall the place was comfortable and priced reasonably. For what this place is, it's legit. read more

Cheddars has s great looking building the the inside is impressive. They have a patio with fireplace and fire pit which is fabulous. The food is very well priced for the potions you receive. Service is wonderful and the food is pretty good. I loved the crescents and honey. I will be going back in the near future. read more

I had no idea this place existed. I'm so happy that we found it. All of us loved our food which is a rare occurrence. The chicken strips were so good and the queso and chips were excellent. Definitely not heathy but a very nice treat. I would highly recommend. read more

Love love love this place. Plentiful nearby parking, greeters are very friendly. Food is great. The steak tastes like the way I grill them at home. Menu is eclectic. Never have I seen so many combos with chicken tenders. Chicken tenders and steak, chicken tenders and shrimp, chicken tenders and ribs... Only negative which is not an impact is there aren't any collard greens on the menu but the rest of menu makes up for it. The bar staff Nathaniel, Jennifer and Jade are awesome. They make the best painkillers !!! Definitely worth the 30 minute drive. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Watching the Broncos!! - American Near Me - Thornton, Colorado

Completely ignored for 20 minutes after initially getting seated at our table, so we left. Wanted to take my mom out for a nice lunch, but left hungry, frustrated, disrespected, unwelcomed, and ignored unfortunately. Warning to all who are deciding whether to come to this particular location or not. We were one of the first 5 parties to arrive and be seated when they opened at 11am on Sunday. We were sat in a corner and in the 20 minutes we were there, not once were we asked for our drink order, served in any way, or even acknowledged. I kept watching servers pass by, serve other tables, etc. 15 minutes in, I started recording on my phone just to see if service was just slow or if we were actually being ignored. I recorded parties getting seated by the hostess and within a couple minutes of being seated, both parties I tracked had been greeted by their servers. The breaking point was when we saw food being delivered to tables we arrived with. Mentioned to the hostess as we walked out how we hadn't been served the whole 20 minutes we were seated at our table, and would be leaving because of it. We received a very casual, "okay, sorry" and pretty much continued on with regular business. After I walked out, I decided to come back in feeling I should at least share my experience with who I perceived to be the manager, who happened to be the same person who seated us originally. After taking a sec to realize I was someone he seated when they opened (cause initially he said "thanks for coming" when I walked back in), he did apologize but didn't really get a sense he was wanting to acknowledge wrongdoing except explain how there should have been servers there to serve us. The hostess then even recalled what number table we were and where exactly we were seated. Towards the end of the conversation he offered to seat us back down and serve us personally at his expense. After talking with my mom (who handled this situation with grace), we decided that one, I was not sure eating in a place while feeling disrespected, ignored, unwelcomed, and frustrated would be best, and two, didn't want to get a free pitty meal cause we weren't trying to scam the place (we just wanted to be regular patrons who got treated like every other customer), we decided to decline the ho-hum offer and leave. The offer was generous, but the delivery, care, and mannerisms of it seemed to not be genuine, not to mention ignoring customers that they seated for 20 minutes should have never of happened in the first place. Overall, just felt completely disrespected. First time this has happened to me to the point where I had to get up and leave due to not being served at all. What kind of business seats their customers only to be completely ignored by every staff member? Maybe the reason why I never see any other Asian people there when I've eaten all the times I have there, is because we're treated differently? As for past times I've been there, I can say the menu has lots of good options and the food is pretty good. Think it's a cool touch they list the calories next to the items. Have been there at different times and service was usually adequate and on par with other large busy restaurants. It sucks to have had this scarring experience at a place I wanted to continue to like and really didn't have an issue with, until today's experience. How my mom and I were treated will be remembered. I feel particularly frustrated with this experience because this all happened while I was with my mom. I would hope the staff will learn and do better. I don't believe (or at least hope) there was any ill/malicious intent, however they negatively impacted a family's experience and future outlook at this place. The lack or sense of any wrongdoing initially also did not help. I hope others have better experiences here and wish on no one that they experience what my mom and I did today. If this lack of customer service does not change, then this is a fair warning to all, that if you happen to be unlucky at this restaurant, you will be disrespected, ignored, and left hungry with no water, food, or as much as a hello, only to be made like you don't even matter as a customer when you decide leaving is a better option than waiting to see if someone will come greet you and take your initial drink order. Eat there at your own risk, that is if they even will serve you and acknowledge your existence once you've been seated. read more

The food was good and the waitress was very respondent to our table and always checking on us great restaurant.

They forgot multiple things from our delivery order... so we called and asked to speak to the manager and his response (6/21/23) was "I'm sorry but we have humans working for us, not robots." - Ok? I also work for a company that has 'humans' working for it (not robots)... and we seem to get the deed done... highly do not recommend anything when this manager is on duty. read more

Prices and service here are excellent. We had everything, from ribs to salmon at our table. All were great. Atmosphere is very fun, but not crazy loud. read more

A nice casual sit down restaurant. Good variety on the menu and I've always had good service at Cheddar's.

It's been a while since I've been there but they had good food when were there last time. The server was really good but I think they messed up my wife's order. We will be back and everybody has a bad day. The restaurant was clean and they were following Covid protocols. read more

My favorite place to get dinner with my hubby! Fresh and delicious every time. Great atmosphere and lovely employees.

We generally love Cheddar's as a whole. My fiancée is from Texas and has gone there for years. This was an overall great experience. Food was absolutely delicious. My fiancée enjoyed the Monte Cristo which is his go-to sandwich at Cheddar's. The raspberry preserves was tangy and married well with the creaminess of the cheese and the salt from the meats. The toasty outside of the bread was just an additional accent to the flavors and textures. I enjoyed the sirloin with the broccoli cheddar casserole. It was creamy and cheesy. Service was decent. Only reason for four instead of five stars is a hair in my fiancee's Dr. Pepper and the waitress was a bit rude when we inquired on the status of his drink. read more

Good for that just makes you feel at home. It's a casual eatery with fine food and great prices. They take time to make your plate right and I have yet to be disappointed. I thank the servers and busses and cooks for always serving things as if they were doing it for family. read more
