    The try 2 chili and garden salad

    I stopped in today due to rain and a desire for chili to really enjoy the cool. I ended up ordering the take 2 lunch which is the obligatory side salad (garden with ranch) plus the reason for the visit: chili. It's been a while since I've been here so I guess I shouldn't be surprised but it was very different than the last time I ordered chili here. First thing, the portion was very small. The picture showed a bowl, what I received was no better than a cup. I went back and looked at the menu and realized only later that they don't say bowl or cup, just include a misleading photo. That was disappointing because the whole reason for my visit was chili. Second, this was not the same chili I had here before, it didn't taste of smoke at all, despite the description including smoked meats. It tasted like a sweet tomato based soup rather than a smoked and spicy chili, I don't know when the recipe changed but it's mediocre at best and clearly meant for people who like sugary soup instead of an actual chili. This was not worth the calories ingested. I realize others might disagree but in chili, sweet should not dominate savory. I want pungent and spicy. And lastly, the table was sticky. Had to wash my forearms when I left. And the music was ridiculously loud. I put my noise canceling earbuds in because I needed relief. Next time i want chili it won't be here.

    I always go to the location on Dobson in Mesa but this one was midway between my and my besties house so we went here. Around 3pm when we arrived it was calm we got a clean table and everyone from the hostess to the servers were wonderful. We left around 6 and they were very busy especially for a Wednesday. The food on their Happy hour menu and lunch menu is plentiful delish and we'll priced. We enjoyed some drinks and it was a perfect place for a catch up session.

    This is one of those chains that is pretty consistent. The prices are really good and the food is pretty good too. We usually go to the famous Dave's in Mesa, and we're surprised that this famous Dave's in Chandler looks completely different. I really like the clean white farmhouse feel of this location. Even the chairs in the area we were sitting were really very farmhouse and very pretty. There was bar table made with a scooter - - very cute! Our server was very sweet and our food came out pretty quickly. Even though it was a weekend they had a lunch special which we all took advantage of. The price was right for quite a bit of food. We had a little of everything, and it was good, although the brisket was not as tender as it usually is. But the thing that was absolutely best where the rib tips. I didn't order any for myself, but after tasting hubby's, I made it my mind that that is exactly what I'd get next time. I had seen a chocolate silk pie in a case when we walked in and of course had to have some. It was also delicious!

    The food tasted great, but the portion size of the two-meat combo was disappointing--it has been reduced significantly. The service was fast, and we were seated immediately. There were TV monitors all around showing the football game (no sound, which is good for us!).

    Lunch - BBQ Stuffed Baked Potato with BBQ Pulled Chicken, with a side of broccoli
    Christine T.

    Famous Dave's has a pretty good lunch menu that's available daily 11am-4pm. My family stopped in on a Saturday around 2pm for a late lunch. We were seated right away and ordered the traditional wings double winger from the appetizer menu. From the lunch menu, I got the BBQ stuffed baked potato with BBQ pulled chicken and a side of broccoli. It comes with a corn muffin too, which is one of my favorite food items there. My family also got the baked potato with Georgia chopped pork, 1-meat lunch platter, and 2-meat lunch platter. The 2-meat platter is only $1.50 more than the 1-meat platter, but the meat portions are smaller. I enjoyed my meal and felt pretty content in terms of fullness, but others left a little hungry. Our waitress also disappeared for a while, so we had to ask another waiter to find her for us. I like that each table has a roll of paper towels, wet wipes, and different BBQ sauces to choose from. They also have TVs there if you want to watch a game with your meal.

    Just got my lunch order and it was a disaster with the meat. It was supposed to come with rip tips, spare ribs, and brisket. All was bad. the beans were the only thing edible. The fake ribs were hard as a rock and looked like webbed feet. Simply Horrible

    Feast for two. Corn, potato wedges. Bread also which is also under the meat. We chose ribs ,chicken and brisket.

He was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. Great service always makes a good dining experience even better. The manager also stopped by our table which always is always nice One of my favorite things about Cheddar's is that every meal starts with their complimentary Honey Butter Croissants. They are warm, flaky, buttery, and topped with a sweet honey glaze. They are absolutely delicious and such a nice touch. My husband ordered the Pain Killer (Pusser's Rum, cream of coconut, pineapple juice, orange juice, toasted coconut rim, and topped with nutmeg). It was refreshing, well-balanced, and one of the best tropical cocktails he's had in quite a while. For his entrée, he chose the Spasagna--a creative twist on lasagna with spaghetti layered with four cheeses, then baked and topped with homemade Alfredo and marinara sauces, served with garlic bread. He's Italian and can be pretty particular about Italian food, so the fact that he thoroughly enjoyed it says a lot. It was rich, cheesy, comforting, and full of flavor. My daughter and I both ordered the Monte Cristo, and it definitely did not disappoint. The sandwich was perfectly crispy on the outside with a delicious combination of ham, turkey, and cheese inside. Paired with the raspberry preserves, it hit that perfect balance of sweet and savory. By the end of the meal, we were completely full and had no room left for dessert--which just gives us another reason to come back. Cheddar's continues to offer generous portions, delicious food, and excellent service at a very reasonable price. We'll definitely be back.

I got the New Orleans pasta. It has a good kick to it! The sauce was flavorful, the shrimp taste fresh and tender and the sausage was tasty as well. Also got their chicken tenders. Some how their tendies taste better than other normal American restaurants. The tenders are crispy on the outside and hot and juicy on the inside. I also tried their burger before, and it was great as well! Overall 10/10

The portions of ingredients were great, not too many of one ingredient. The soup was creamy but not thick like glue, great consistency!

It turns out that one of the oldest curators and bartenders of the bar and restaurant had passed from a drunk driving incident and I had not known at all! Gosh I was so disappointed in myself that I had ever complained about not having a new menu to try after that...but at the same time it was amazing to hear so many great anecdotes and to learn so much more about him and the history of the bar itself while dining this time. I had a lot of fun times at this bar - including remembering the first time I met that bartender and sharing that memory with the staff that told me their story. They also shared that they would be coming out with a new menu very soon and some of the new items and ideas that would be rolling out so I am also very excited to go back! New food menu tomorrow too?! What?! I was almost tempted to back today to get more of their amazing dishes from the main menu!! Thank you Cat for the amazing hospitality! I learned so much about Gaea in one afternoon too :D Love it. To update about the food I tried but some of you may not get to try since they're changing it up :P *Tiger Shrimp - DIVINE - JUICY ZUCCHINI STUFFED WITH CURRY THAT MAKES YOUR ENTIRE MOUTH WATER JUST THINKING ABOUT IT ONCE ITS EVER TOUCHED YOUR TONGUE - the prawns are BIGGER THAN YOUR MIDDLE FINGER *Thai Salad - zesty spicy, VERY filling and made in lettuce cups, so very much not your typical salad but very tasty *steak skewers - much more like the juiciest steak I've literally ever had on a skewer - LITERALLY...but not because it's fat, just because they somehow made this steak completely juicified - don't ask me how - ask Cat *Mole Chicken Skewers - My favorite...you should just try it.

    Always great experience with a fun, modern ranch vibe! We got there just after happy hour…read more(unfortunately), but our server, Torrance, made the meal memorable. He was incredibly kind and attentive, especially with my friend who is deaf, making sure we always had water, napkins, and plenty of chips. The margarita flight is always a must for me, so I had to order one for my friend since it was her first visit. I told her that even though neither of us are into spicy margaritas, I knew she'd love it and I was right! Every margarita was delicious. I also ordered the lavender lemonade, which was refreshing and just as good. Ghost Ranch never seems to miss when it comes to drinks. Potato tacos! Another must have My friend ordered the Aztec Cake and insisted I'd regret not getting it. She was absolutely right. It was bomb and Torrance offered us a side of chips .TY. I ordered the short rib. It was flavorful, tender, and filling, with lots of garlic and savory flavor. I'm not sure if short rib is just not my thing, but it didn't wow me the way the Aztec Cake did. I warmed it up later and it was delicious a second time so no complaints. Excellent service, delicious drinks, and a fun way to spend the Fourth. We'll definitely be back!

Been waiting to check this place out for Happy Hour and finally got around to it with friends. Happy Hour is daily with $3 off all appetizers (not just selected as the menu says) in addition to drink specials. We ordered a few apps to share and had: - Chips with Guacamole and Salsa: solid - Queso Fundido: I was excited for this as friends have said they liked it, but the cheese harden within minutes and it wasn't as nice - Street Style Esquites: I was expecting more corn rather than mixed in another cheese dip and likewise, the cheese harden quickly. - Shrimp cocktail: it was pretty heavy on the liquid rather than thicken, but good - 3 potato tacos: okay, wasn't expected it to be fried so it was a bit greasy but loved the slaw it came with - Southwest egg roll: not bad, was a crowd's favorite and I liked the sauce it came with We didn't realize most of the apps came with tortilla chips otherwise we may have ordered differently. I got the frozen margarita and it was a bit sweet, but nice for the summer evening. Our server wasn't super attentive, but was nice whenever they came around. There's a sampler entree platter I'd like to try, but of all the appetizers we tried, the best was probably the chips with guacamole and salsa.

    We ordered a blackberry mojito and pear martini. The mojito wasn't to our taste, so the bartender…read morekindly swapped it for another pear martini. Afterwards, he mentioned that he tasted it and agreed about our comments- I appreciate that level of attention. Shortly after, the food arrived. Spicy pork tacos for me, and BLTA for my wife. The tacos looked a little overdressed. I was so wrong. Flavor and texture were balanced perfectly. The tortillas were firm, but again, perfectly suited to the juicy pork, that had a teriyaki vibe. Sprouts, carrot and cucumber toppings worked well, despite my expectations. The BLTA was HUGE. Great flavor. Both entrees were ordered with sweet potato fries. Unusual cut to them, but seasoned perfectly. I paired mine with chipotle aioli and ate every last one. My only complaint is that I'm only spending one evening in the Phoenix area, and won't be back soon. I would eat this food three times a week without hesitation.

    It was 115 yesterday and they had the door open which it made it insanely hot insane. I had to ask…read moreto move us to the back of the restaurant. I ordered the pesto goat cheese spread with crostini - it was way too think and hard as a rock. Very hard to bite in to. The spread needed salt. We ordered the Pacos Tacos. I took off onions and bacon. My husband had it just the way it comes. We really enjoyed those. The black beans it came with was absolutely delish My daughter and her hubby ordered the grilled cheese. My daughters came with pear spiced bread - tasted like raisin bread - none of us cared for it. Service was good. Not a place we would go back to. I do like that all salads could be turned in to a wrap. The drink menu looked fun. Cute atmosphere- you should secure a reservation.
