Had a great meal with friends tonight. Food was great and service was pretty good, though I think the server was new as he did not pre bus the table at all and kept a number of dirty dishes on the table. One of the party members had to mention something to him to get him to take away some plates. Otherwise, things were great. We were seated fairly promptly and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time.

First time coming to Cheddar's after 2 and a half years of my husband recommending it to me and I think it was amazing! The Cheddar's cheese fries appetizer is something I cannot wait to order again next time. The ranch sauce dip for them was so light and perfect. I do not like ranch sauce but this was an exception! I enjoy getting strawberry lemonade in restaurants and here they put a strawberry inside of your drink. My dad ordered a piña colada drink with no alcohol, and he thought it was delightful. Wonderful service, good presentation, and great food for an affordable price 🍽️💛

Went to Cheddars for dinner last night with my wife to celebrate our anniversary to meet eachother, wonderful service, quick to be seated and delicious as always. We got the chips & homemade queso, honey-butter croissants, beer-battered fish & shrimp platter, buffalo chicken wrapper. Great food, atmosphere and service...due to a positive experience we will be back.

We came at dinner time and ordered the "Spasagna" with chicken tenders, and the new Orleans style pasta. We did end up switching plates because I did not enjoy the texture of the Spasagna, it's noodles with cheese in a huge chunk and if you're not prepared for it then it can be a bit much, but my date loved it. The service was incredible and the honey croissants are really good ETA: second time visiting was amazing! We shared the sampler appetizer, spinach dip with chicken tenders and cheese bites, the cheese bites were THE BEST they're lightly breaded and so soft💜💜💜 the tenders are also lightly Breaded so I was able to eat them easily even with tooth problems. I got the New Orleans style pasta again and my boyfriend got the steak tips with mashed potatoes, both dishes were delicious and had to be taken home for leftovers. We got the happy hour titos and cranberry juice which came with a lime, pretty good.

This was our 1st visit the this Cheddar's. Our server Chloe was great. The food was much better than I expected. (Sorry about the picture, we dug in, before I remembered to take a picture.) The ribs were fall-off-the-bone tender, the chicken was crisp and juicy. I got mashed potatoes and corn with mine, which were great. The wife hot fries, which were seasoned and delicious and green beans, which were a little sweet. Overall a great experience. BTW, the place was very clean too

Wife and I had grilled salmon and shrimp over rice, with baby carrots and a house salad with balsamic vinegar dressing. All the croutons and salad vegetables were crisp and fresh. Everything was delicious! Shrimp was close to being overcooked but within acceptable limits. A peppery side glaze was provided to use in personal preference amounts. Salmon was flaky and done well. Baby carrots were sweet but not syrupy sweet...firmly soft but not mushy. Not pictured were honey buttered croissants, which were so good, we ordered another serving. FYI, croissants are not included with the meal but are only a couple of bucks for two. Wonderful atmosphere. You could carry on a conversation without shouting and hear without straining. All the facilities appeared neat and clean. The booth we had was comfortable and spacious for two persons. Other size tables were available for larger parties. Wait staff were cordial and attentive. The food order came out promptly and accurately. An all round positive dining experience.
