This was my first experience at Cheddars and I would return in a heartbeat. The food was hot and plentiful and very tasty. Our waitress was attentive and on the ball providing refills before being asked and checking on needs several times during the meal. The floors and tables were clean and well stocked. I watched tables being bussed as soon as customers left and time was taken to insure that they were clean as well as chairs. Thank you for an excellent meal and experience! read more

Cheddars if fun, never had a bad meal here. They remind me of a TGIFridays--fun music, greasy but good fried anything, sticky floors, but always a fun meal. read more

Crescent rolls were amazing!!! Definitely see why they are greedy with giving them out! Watermelon margarita was so good, also ordered more watermelon syrup and I don't like margaritas!!! Them 2 alone gave it a 3!! Service was ok but she was scarce. Messed up the order for the baked potato, he ordered steak and said it was tough. Baked potato soup was good but super cold. The spaghetti thing was also cold. But it was good just cold. To me the place was a knock off Applebee's. But I would go again. read more

Well we just left cheddars must have been 30 open tables. We were told they would sit us at a high top table. Due to medical conditions my husband cannot sit at a high top table. Then we were told 1/2 to 40 minimum wait. What????!!!! Due to servers we were told- Nice job cheddar manager! We left no problem we'll give our service elsewhere due to customer preference Wish I didn't have to give a star!!!! read more

We drive from Toledo just to go here. The Country Fried Steak is AMAZING! Some of the best I've had. Chicken tenders are also excellent. Complimentary honey butter croissants. Broccoli cheese casserole and their salads are also good. Service is usually fast and friendly. The interior is ok, but could use a little update. read more

Cheddar's is probably Findlay's most popular restaurant and for good reason - the food is consistently good, the portions are generous, and the prices are reasonable. It's not the fanciest, but it hits the spot. I wish they'd bring back the chicken quesadilla appetizer! read more

Service was slow - Waited for an hour for average level of food. Food - Bread tasted burnt but the salad and baked potato was good. Ambiance - Was good nothing really stood out as it was a busy day. read more

Delicious comfort food. Honey butter croissants served before the meal are a bonus. Particularly love the country fried steak, chicken fried chicken and the chicken tenders; all are freshly breaded, so fresh and crispy. Sides are plentiful each one a comfort food that hits the spot. Service is ok, if not a little rushed. I would have given a 5 star, but I really wish they'd give the place a well needed deep cleaning or perhaps even an updated remodel. Like I said a great place for delicious comfort food. read more

Service was AMAZING but the food was mid. The croissants that I thought were complimentary were not, that's fine but the chips and salsa and queso? Felt like a crime against Mexican cuisine. Ambiance was good and we got seated immediately. The steamed broccoli, was not completely steamed. Very salty fish. HELLA GOOD SPRITE THOUGH, Dr.pepper was not carbonated enough... but the salmon was good. The garlic bread was metal tasting.... Chicken tenders was gas (good) and so was the baked potato. Also sweet green beans, don't know how to feel about that one. Definitely didn't taste southern . All in all, mid read more

This place is so nasty. Sticky table and chairs to start out. Food is straight from freezer. Fish, chicken, meat is drier than 80 old stripper from Vegas. read more

This place is awful. Service was awful , food was bogus. Traveling in Findlay, OH. Looking for decent food. Order a 7 oz filet, medium, baked potato and corn. Waited almost 10 mins on the phone to place a pickup order. Kept getting the same lady picking up the phone and asking, "can I help you?" Only to be told, please hold. Arrived at Reataurant only to be told by the hostess to go down the hall to the right to pick up my order. Stood by the pickup station for about 10 mins waiting for someone to help. Had at least 15 people walk by me and never acknowledge me. Finally someone asked if I had been helped, to which I politely replied, "not yet"! 2 mins later some guy came out of the restroom to help. He rang me up, brought my food and wished me a good evening. I asked for an itemized receipt but he just walked away. I realized he didn't give me the drink I ordered, so I waited another 5 mins and no one returned. I finally asked on of the 10 people who walked by me to get the to go order guy. He finally arrived and brought my drink. The medium filet was nothing more than a rare sirloin, could hardly chew it! If I hadn't had a knife and fork, it may have ran off my plate. I guess that is what I get for ordering a "filet" from a dump! Don't waste your time or money going to this place. Staff was semi rude and the Manager/General Manager should be investigated for poor service and quality! read more

visited day after Easter, first patrons in , floor was filty, food under all tables and aisles, hadnt been vacuumed in days, lobby floor hadnt been swept or mopped in a week, walking to table carpet had inch of dust at edges, ladies restroom filthy. if they dont care about the public area, cant imagine the condition in kitchen and equipment, but our waitress was great! read more

We have not visited in quit some time, but we were in Findlay. Everything was perfect. The onion rings were lightly breaded and great! I had the buffalo chicken wrap and it was wonderful! We will definitely start coming more often! Prices are very reasonable for all the food you get! read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Comfort Food Near Me - Findlay, Ohio

Let's start with the bad. It's pretty standard that your salad comes out before your meal unless the customer requests it at the same time. I understand it was a bit busy but that is unacceptable. Now the positive is that the food is amazing! I would definitely recommend this restaurant even with the minor flaw tonight. You can't go wrong with anything on their menu. If you want dessert then I recommend the Brownie Sundae but it's made for two maybe three people. You can definitely expect it to be busy because this is the best place in town. Definitely a must go-to restaurant! read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Hot Fudge Cake Sundae - Comfort Food Near Me - Findlay, Ohio

I stopped in for an early dinner and sat at the bar. My server was friendly and attentive and recommended the buffalo chicken wrap and broccoli cheddar casserole. I took one bite of the buffalo wrap and it completely fell apart. I ended up eating it with a fork. The broccoli cheddar casserole tasted like broccoli and melted cheese. Nothing great, nice atmosphere and standard food. read more

Food Food and more food I have never had a meal I didn't like you feel like you're in the Bahamas has a beach kind of feel with the ceiling fans. Staff is warm and friendly and always willing to help out with whatever it is read more

Arrived at the hostess stand and encountered young, heavyset, red headed girl. She was disheveled and obviously incapable of managing the dinner rush. She was rude when she seated us. Enter the waitress..,more of the same. She was a smart Alec about the menu items and provided sub-par service. Don't even know her name...has T Rex arms. There was gum and food between the edge of the booth and the wall where we were seated. It is the type of restaurant that feels greasy when you walk in...like Applebees! Service sucked and food was mediocre, at best. Don't waste your time here. It isn't worth the wait. read more

Today, observed bartender coughing periodically yet using shirt as a barrier is unacceptable. It's OKAY to use a mask during this time to protect customers, business populations . So why is management not providing general health advice appropriately. As a healthcare worker, quite sure a patent would not like me coughing over them while taking vitals or drawing their blood. Mary shame on you not feeling a mask is appropriate to protect yourself, customers & establishments representation. Of course employees have rights but restaurants are getting bad reviews most times on service. Hopefully I don't get sick. Will return but hope Manager step up & manage properly to maintain business integrity read more

I was with family yesterday for dinner at your restaurant. The ribs were the best I ever had. Amazing!! Our server Andy should be complimented on his service with us. He was outstanding!! We enjoy coming to your restaurant and will be back. I was going to various restaurants for ribs but after yesterday I'll drive from Toledo for yours. Thanks. read more

Honey butter croissants served before the meal were great. We have no Cheddars in Toledo so we tried them in Findlay Oh. both salads were great. my fried shrimp were good. The 6 oz steak was cooked medium as ordered but had gristle in several bites. My wifes steak however was well done which she ordered medium. and the mashed potatoes were a small ice cream scoop. By the time our waitress got back to us we couldn't wait for another steak. They did comp us for her meal. We wont be returning to Cheddars. read more

Stop at the Findlays location the were pretty empty ask for a table because I'm a big person also handicapped tons of empty tables , they said they had none available and would ask if we could sit at on when one person they said they had to talk to the server and all three of them standing around discussing it. I don't know if it was I'm a they just didn't want the business but we would just Olive Garden was more unhappy to see us at a table. I won't come back ever again. read more

I ordered 2 grilled chicken salads to go and I got a salad with 3 chicken tenders on top that was greasy and undercooked not cut up and no cheese in the salad , literally just lettuce that was brown , no croissants that were supposed to come with the order, emailed corporate with no response . Obviously they don't care ! read more

Quick service and the chicken tenders are the BEST hands down. We aren't from Findlay but whenever a are in town, we stop here! Worth it every time! read more

I should have taken a picture of my chicken tender salad for reference but because I didn't, it was bagged salad with what looked like some one flung a bit of cheddar cheese on and 3 tiny chicken fingers. For the price it was horrendous. Their quality has tanked, just since 2020! Cheddars used to be such an economical choice combined with their quality. To go there on a week day or weekend night you could expect a wait. We were there on a Friday night and there was hardly anyone there. You'd think ownership would get a clue but this is another example of greed and corporate profits over quality and customer experience. read more

The food was good, the service was quick and the ambiance was casual. We went on a Saturday afternoon and there was no wait time

Food was good, croissants were good as always. My issue is with the cleanliness of the women's restroom. its disgusting! It was 11:30 AM and should have been clean, but it looked like no one cleaned it in a year! You want a restaurant you should respect your customers enough to have a clean bathroom! Also the mens bathroom door was propped open, I would think that would be against the health code also. read more

Family of six went, restaurant some what busy, we sit at table for 20 or so minutes server comes takes our orders, brings drinks then never seen again 40 or so minutes go by and I decide that we will pay for our drinks and go elsewhere, I get a young gentleman who was cleaning a table ajacent to our table and asked if we could get the bill for our drinks, he walked back and was looking at the monitors above the warming stations in the windows, him and our server come walking out with our plates conveniently, sitting them on the table server gets very rude at this point I tell them I just want the bill all the plates feel cold, she gets rude and starts walking away saying something and shaking her head, I go up and pay my $95.xx bill with the expectation of never participating in the restaurant again, just saying very disrespectful read more

This is my favorite thing to order from Cheddars. The restaurant is usually pretty clean when we visit. Food is usually decent. Spinach dip is bomb. Honey croissants are now complimentary to the table so that's nice. 8/10 read more

Standard service, Tessa was our server and she did a fine job. The food was good but nothing stood out, the sauce on my Alfredo was heavy on the garlic and they left the tails on the shrimp. I went with a few of my girlfriends and there was a hair on one of their chicken platters and another hair in a side of ranch. The Sante Fe spinach dip was phenomenal as always. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Grilled Shrimp Alfredo - Comfort Food Near Me - Findlay, Ohio

We went out of our way to have dinner here while traveling, as this chain has been recommended to us and not located where we live. On a Sunday night at 7:00 it was very crowded, and half the patrons were children, so it was very noisy. The restaurant felt in disarray, with litter on the floors and dirty tables. It was not what we expected. It took quite a while for a server to arrive so we decided to place our full order. I ordered the chicken pot pie which came with a salad, and also iced tea. I will only write this review based on my food, as my husband had an issue and he writes his own reviews. My salad arrived in a timely manner, and it's a nice salad, not just lettuce. My pot pie arrived extremely hot, which I love. When I cracked the top to let the heat out of the pie, I could smell seafood. Inside there were very large chunks of chicken and also vegetables, but the pie had a seafood taste, so not sure why that was. It was decent, but the smell kept bothering me. Our server may have been new, but he was not very good. He never asked to refill drinks and never checked back about the issue we had. We had to ask another server to find him in order to get our check. Overall I was disappointed. We aren't chain restaurant people, but had heard such good things and expected more. Maybe it's just this location as we did eat in one years ago and remembered it better. read more

definitely isn't as good as they used to be. over cooked the steak. had to switch meals with my husband because we didn't want it to have his steak remade. even the monster cookie didn't taste good. my daughter had a chicken salad and she said the chicken didn't taste good either. so needless to say dinner sucked. definitely wasn't worth the $132 we spent for it. def not returning. worst birthday dinner. read more

I found a piece of wire brush in my food, was highly disappointed. I just wanted a good meal. At least the manager covered my food.

Worth going there for their chicken strips, so delicious. As long as it isn't super busy (it almost always is) the servers are great and the food is wonderful. Updates: Been back several more times, place still keeps up the quality, though the portions seem to be more ranged as of late. I will also mention that they have a delicious selection of adult beverages, highly recommend. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Margarita om nom - Comfort Food Near Me - Findlay, Ohio

Atmosphere - chain restaurant vibe. I am willing to bet that I could take a picture of several chain restaurants and you would be hard pressed to identify the business. Service - inept. Our server was polite, but very tentative. I experienced a nightmare in simply trying to be served a hot cup of soup ( 3 try's by 3 different people over a 20 minute period of time) that included my asking to speak to the manager (who barely expressed concern and never apologized for the issue, let alone offer to comp my soup. To make matters worse, the place was absolutely filthy virtually everywhere. Food - below average. Did I mention the soup? Aside from that, I ordered the Monte Cristo sandwich. It was served warm, but not hot, and it was mostly bread (sparse portions of the meat). Value - poor. I will assume that an additional explanation of my assessment of the restaurant's value is not required. read more

Waitress never returned. Meat came cold and raw even though I literally ask for it to be cooked "Well done, no pink please". A-1 that was requested literally never came. Waitress did not refill drinks. She literally took order, brought my iced tea, brought the food, brought the bill. No A-1 came as requested, no checking on my food, no drink refill. Finally, as I waited on the bill, she came over with a filthy A-1 bottle and literally stated "I'm sorry about that, I had to go find a new one". I am sure that was not true. Even if it were, 15-20 minutes to find one? No one believes that. This entire trip/meal was disappointing, shame on you Cheddars! read more

This place may be understaffed. Sat at the bar and waited 10-15 minutes before getting service. Bar top was sticky and had it cleaned again by bartender who wanted to argue with me about why I thought it was dirty. I went with half rack ribs/fries. The ribs were dry. The fries ended up being the bulk of my meal. I also didn't enjoy hearing all the shop talk/ gossip with the other employees while waiting for my food at the bar. read more

This has been my families go to place since as long as I can remember, coming here for special occasions has become somewhat of a tradition for us. The food is always always amazing. The food is always amazing, our favorite is the spin dip, never leave without ordering it! Service is pretty decent most of the time. I love the ambiance of the restaurant, it has great lighting and I love the separate seating area that's all windows! read more

I use to work there back in 2017-2019, the bosses weren't great with their workers, the chips at times felt stale. They said "welcome to the family" and that they will treat us so. But for the 3 years I was there, they didn't treat me like family. Servers yelling and complaining at us bussers, us bussers get locked out in the dump area while doing trash. Slipping on trash on the floor. read more

My family went out and came in at the last hour of opening, which we try not to do because we know how it can be a hassle. The staff, despite this was amazing of server Bailey M. was cheerful and attentive to refills or if we had a question. The food was delicious, I can personally attest that the chicken pot pie is super tasty. My family was happy and satisfied with the service and food. read more
