    8 oz. Fire Grilled Sirloin with Idaho Mashed Potatoes and Fresh Steamed Broccoli
    Goodness I.

    Came here on a Sunday afternoon with a party of 8 and were sat in about 20 minutes. Our server was kind, informative, and patient with us. The steaks were not really cooked to our liking-one person sent the steak back bc it was too pink. But it all tasted good. The rolls were a pleasant surprise and we enjoyed them! The 8oz steak was small than expected. I would likely return and try something new!

    We hadn't been to a Cheddar's in a while, as there were so many service and food issues, so we gave up and just stayed away. But this past weekend, we thought they deserved another try. We asked for a good server, and did they deliver! We were seated right away. Alliyah was our server, and was terrific from start to finish! She had good energy, was kind, and had answers for our food questions! Such a bonus these days! We ordered our beverages and an appetizer. She brought us two incredible, flaky, golden croissants with their signature honey butter... oh, man, these are so delicious, warm, and leave you wanting more (they know how to keep you coming back! lol). The Wisconsin Cheese bites are OMG good! They were lightly breaded and cooked to perfection; these are a "must have" if you've never tried them! For dinner, we ordered the DIJON CHICKEN & MUSHROOMS: two grilled chicken breasts with honey Dijon sauce and sautéed sliced mushrooms over seasoned rice; doesn't that sound amazing? It WAS delicious, and a generous portion too! Also, the CHICKEN TENDER PLATTER: hand-breaded chicken tenders (made to order). They were perfectly cooked and oh-so-tender. I chose the honey hot; it had a little kick, but the flavor was spot on! The tenders have always been a favorite of mine (at CHEDDAR'S)! Misses: It would have been nice to have small plates for the croissants and the cheese bites, both of which were brought out by other staff. We noticed that when the support staff cleaned tables, they didn't take time to clean the small wireless menu/game device on each table. They all looked filthy and greasy. We didn't want to touch ours (see pics) Overall, we were very pleased! The food was fresh, flavorful, and served hot! We hope this is a sign of our repeat visits, as there are quite a few things on the menu that I would love to have again, such as the ribs, shrimp, pot pie... and their fabulous desserts! Thank you, Alliyah. You are so kind and service-minded; that's a true gift that will serve you well in the role or industry you pursue! See you soon! Please see the included pics.

    Freddy shrimp with loaded potatoes and fries

    The food was really good and the ambience is crowded, but good, the waiters are really nice. Highly recommended

    At least the tinders were edible.

    Ordered tender and fries for pick-up. The fries were hot but extremely over cooked. They seemed cooked twice. The exterior was hard & crispy little potato inside.. I waited for a replacement & it was a mix of good and hard fries. Don't order fries & save your time and emotions

    I stopped by Cheddar's on a Sunday at 2:30 PM with two others. The atmosphere was welcoming, and our waitress, Helen D., was a literal ray of sunshine--super friendly, helpful, and honestly, way too pretty to be working around queso all day. The Food: First up, let's talk about those honey butter croissants they bring you. O-M-G. These things are little fluffy clouds of perfection. You can tell the butter and bread are top-tier, and the sweet-and-buttery combo will have you plotting ways to sneak extras into your purse. But don't unless you want your purse ruined! For Starters: We got the Trio Sampler: * Chicken tenders: Juicy and flavorful. Solid. * Spinach dip: Absolute fire. I could eat this by the spoonful and still want more. * Queso (added beef): Meh. I wouldn't order it again--especially when those croissants are sitting there calling my name. If I'm spending calories, I'm spending them wisely. Main Courses: * Homemade Pot Pie: This was comfort food at its finest. Flaky crust? Check. Chunks of chicken, peas, and carrots? Double check. Sure, it was a bit soupy, but I like it that way--like a pot pie that doesn't gatekeep gravy. The side salad with blue cheese dressing was tasty too. * Steak (medium rare): Cooked to perfection with a nice crust and great seasoning. The baked potato was classic and delicious. But those queso bacon fries? Hard pass. Just skip them and get another croissant (do you see the theme here?). * Kids Penne Alfredo: My 6-year-old absolutely demolished it. If it passes the picky-eater test, you know it's legit. Overall, it's a great spot for a casual meal. Pro tip: Forget the queso and focus on croissants and spinach dip. Oh, and ask for Helen D.--she'll take great care of you while you decide how much butter is too much butter. (Spoiler: There's no such thing.)

    Good food ,service, and decor. Had lunch today and everything was prepared well. The honey buttered croissant started off the meal . Best chicken pot pie in Dallas ! Ceasar salad was a good addition. Southwest Spinach Dip with chips as an appetizer too. The payment at the table was the easiest I've ever used. Add Cheddars to your dining list for lunch and dinner. Menu options numerous for multiple guests.

    6 oz. Fire Grilled Sirloin

    Cheddar's has been a tradition for my friends and me since high school. Our experiences have always been great with food, service, and ambiance; this location was no different. We came 45 mins before closing, but the server was super friendly and treated us like regular customers. We quickly ordered our food so the kitchen can make it in the time since it closes at 9:30. Our server brought out a couple of croissants for our table since the first round is on them, and I really appreciate it. It was my friend's first time at Cheddar's and he was VERY IMPRESSED. The food took a bit longer than usual (20 mins?), but everything looks good and delicious. My 6oz sirloin was smaller than I expected, but it was cooked perfectly at medium rare. The portions are so big that I remember to the point that my friend had to take home leftovers for the first time! I also got a strawberry lemonade with free refills, and the server brought it out quickly while cleaning up the restaurant. Overall, I love Cheddar's and I'm glad this location is also the same as our usual one back in Kansas. Prices have increased over the years, but they are not expensive as other restaurants or some fast food places. My favorites are the honey butter croissants, vegetable plate, chicken alfredo, sirloin + chicken tenders combo, and so many more! You can't go wrong with any dishes here honestly!

We had the angel cloud pancakes and the Monte Cristo sandwich...both delicious...and the pancake portion was HUGE! This is only about 15 minutes from the house so will definitely be back!

There was also syrup on the table to use as you wanted. It was good and I licked my plate. Others in my group got the Elvis-yes he was still in the building. Others is got the pancakes and tofu. Everyone liked what they got and ate most of it. Probably would go back at a different time of day but definitely not during the lunch hour. Friend said there other locations are not as noisy.

My friends took me here for my 60th birthday!! Outside of the perfect steaks and stellar service (a great big thank you to Brad our amazing waiter), the music stole the show!! They have this insanely talented musician who performs Friday and Saturday nights starting at 6:30 PM .. he literally has his stage on a landing pad halfway up the staircase with his own little music kingdom. One guy. Several instruments. Electric guitar and saxophone were played effortlessly. You can make requests, which adds to the fun! For example, "Sweet Caroline" was a song that everyone sang along throughout the restaurant lol. Then came something I didn't expect. This musician has made it his personal mission to play our National Anthem on Fridays and Saturdays 7pm sharp. Everyone naturally stood -up, the whole room joined in, hand over their hearts, so much patriotic passion and energy. It was truly beautiful to see people come together in that moment. And just when I thought the night couldn't get better, out came a birthday dessert .. a warm homemade cookie with ice cream and a real sparkler. It was a show stopper!! I haven't seen a sparkler since I was ten lol. Apparently, birthdays are a big deal here, because it felt like every table around us had their own sparkler birthday/ anniversary moment. It was hilarious ... and I loved it! If you're looking for a memorable experience or just a relaxing delicious meal, nothing compares to Texas y'all. TIP: they have valet parking! TIP: they take reservations!

The only two things I remembered from this place was that the food was salty, my husband also commented that on his food--and he likes salt! Second, with my daughter and her many food allergies, we decided to go with plain chicken wings. They mentioned the seasoning was just salt and pepper. My daughter mentioned it being spicy so I tasted it and yes there was seasoning other than salt and pepper. I was very annoyed because she's allergic to gluten and some seasonings contain gluten. I notified the waiter and assumed we were getting a new order. BIG NOPE! What they did was RINSE the chicken and reheated it. How do I know this? Prior to sending it back, I cut a flat of the chicken wings in half for my daughter. When we got the "new" wings, the cut up flat was still on the plate. I was so shocked. Never seen that in a restaurant. At this point, we were all pretty much done with our meals and a storm was brewing so we just wanted to get out of there. I will not come back.

Our appetizer arrived lukewarm and was served at the same time as our main dishes, despite being ordered with drinks. The waitstaff seemed to neglect checking in on us; our coffee carafe was empty for quite some time, as were our water glasses. To make matters worse, our plates were not cleared after we finished eating, which only added to the feeling of being forgotten. I ordered the Trifecta with a carrot cake pancake, expecting something special, but it turned out to be just a basic pancake with carrots, raisins, and nuts added. It lacked the unique flavors and creativity I had hoped for, making it not worth the trip or the money. To top it off, the table across from us sent back an order. As one partner finished eating, the other's new dish arrived. This just added to the sense of disorganization in the restaurant. Unfortunately, I don't think I'll be returning to this First Watch location anytime soon. There are plenty of other brunch spots that offer better service and more memorable meals.
