My husband and I dropped in on a Sunday afternoon and this was our first time visiting. The place had a waiting list so we decided to sit at the bar and it was a great idea. The bar server that took care of us was a young man with very curly hair. He was very prompt to notice us …

OMG, the onion rings are THE BOMB at only $7.99. You get a LOT of food for the money. The breading on both the Beer Battered Shrimp and Chicken Fried Steak was very light. Nice atmosphere, our server was busy but still checked in on us. EVERYTHING WAS DONE TO 👌 PERFECTION. (NO, Im not a paid reviewer, lol)

I had a pleasant dining experience here although there are not many vegetarian options. The food came out fresh and delicious. Service was nice. I will say the portions are big so I would consider sharing an entree.

I absolutely love cheddars. My daughter took me out for my birthday. Waitress was amazing. The only problem was my daughter's food came out cold and mine came out hot. They did manage to fix it but we didn't get to eat together. After the appetizers we were pretty full of so we took the rest of the food home. …

This place is fantastic! The food here is always amazing, especially the Monte Cristo with a strawberry drink. My server, Tyler, was phenomenal. Upheld a standard of customer service that I wish everyone held: a great attitude, good smile, and awesome conversational skills. Looks like my new go-to spot from now on! Awesome job, Tyler!

Absolutely fantastic overall experience. We had Skarlett as our server and she was incredible. She checked on us often, very attentive and made our first impression memorable. Especially those croissants! Restaurant was clean, food was delicious & came out fast. We will definitely make a plan to return.
