Big mistake to get rid of Happy Hour as of 5/4/26. Won't be returning. Even the prices went up. No longer a favorite.

My wife and I paid our first visit this weekend. We loved the complimentary croissants and the wide variety of comfort selections available on the menu. My wife had a steak and shrimp combo and I had the Key West chicken. Servings were very reasonable for the price and the food was delicious. My wife's steak was cooked to perfection but did taste extremely salty - we did make a comment both to the server and in the on-site review requested by the table side payment app. I would recommend anyone ordering their steaks to be sure to request that they go lighter on the salt. Other than that everything was perfect. My wife had the carrot cake dessert, of which I also had a taste, and we both highly recommend it. Service was also attentive and courteous as was our greeting by the maitre d'. There are so many tempting menu offerings that we will definitely need to be making multiple return visits despite the distance, as we are Northeast Valley residents. I would love to see an additional Cheddars open closer to our home. read more

The food was just meh. We opted for something's that would be too much effort to make at home and the portions made up for blandness. Ask for hot sauce before they drop off your plate. The whole checkout experience with the Point Of Sales screens sitting on every table made it easy for my host to miss the extra drink charge ($3.19) as my waitress held that POS screen at them. Fixing the bill required the staff to fix it in the back. Even at other Darden Restaurants, no one knows how to use that POS screen. Is it possible to go back to the old systems or are we conditioning everyone in replacing wait staff like grocery stores with cashiers with their POS system? read more

This one's gonna be a mixed review. People period the food as usual was really good. Everything else went right into the hole prayed. So I ordered mushrooms with my sirloin steak and they did not come out. I also ordered corn as a side dish. Instead, I got rice and our server dropped by our table. Once every 15 minutes at most I was also surprised that when I ordered a mistake and shrimp combination only got 4 tiny shrimp with my order Like I said, at the beginning of this review, the food is good and the people are really friendly. But there's a lot of issues going on at that restaurant. And they need to be repaired for customer service. To stay where it should in these trying times read more

Came here for dinner on a Monday night and even though it was extremely crowded, we were seated right away. Our waitress was nice, but did not come around to us a lot, so the surface was very slow. It took a very long time for our food to come out, I would say longer than normal for a busy Monday evening. The croissants were delicious, and her food was very good as well. It was also extremely loud in the area of the restaurant that we were sitting in, and it got worse as our meal progressed. read more

We were having an adventure in North Phoenix and it was past lunch so we decided to stop at Cheddar's because the parking lot was packed! (That's always a good sign.) We were greeted and seated immediately. Kiana was our waitress and she was very sweet, cheerful AND helpful as we made our selections for lunch. The food was fresh and delicious. I prefer my chicken a little more well done and it came exactly the way I like it. The portions were generous, and we each took a large serving home . Cheddars offers a honey croissant at the beginning of a meal ... which is an interesting twist and is delicious. A little like having dessert first The ambience was pleasant with plenty of space to move between tables. The chairs and tables were comfortable. Booths were an option. What we noticed was there was a lot of laughter among staff from the kitchen ... so they must enjoy each other and working together! We will definitely be back next time we're in the area . read more

I had never been to a Cheddar's before, so this was my first time. Not bad. Had the chicken pot pie and battered onion rings. Both were good. The onion rings, in particular, are better than most other chain or similar type restaurants. They were truly battered, not the breaded version you get at most chains. If I wanted the latter, I'd go buy a plastic bag of them at a Costco or Sam's Club. These were pretty good although I like a thicker cut onion ring. Service (sat at the bar) was very good . . . polite, friendly and checked on us frequently enough. read more

Cheddar's is actually a pretty solid comfort food spot, lowkey giving that casual sit-down vibe where you just wanna eat good and chill. The menu has a lot of options, and everything feels like classic American comfort food done right. read more

Went to this location last night. We have never been to Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen and figured it would be a great place to dine for our 29th Wedding Anniversary. Parking lot was full but we did not wait long for a parking space. We thought this was a good sign. Seating was available despite the crowd. We visited this location around 4:30pm but they were busy. We were usher to a booth quickly but the seating was very narrow and quite uncomfortable (I'm built like an Offensive Lineman; tall and thick). There were no tables available with chairs. Despite being by in a booth next to a wall, it was a but noisy and was a challenge to hold a conversation at the table. Server was quick to the table. Being our first time and our anniversary, we informed our server as such and she provided some decent recommendations for appetizers. Our order: 1. Appetizer Trio (queso w/ chips, spinach dip, and cheddar fries with bacon); 2. Wife: 8oz Sirloin (Medium) with house salad (blue cheese dressing) and Broccoli Cheddar Casserole with Coke Zero. 3. Me: 8oz Sirloin (Medium) with sautéed mushrooms and onions, house salad (vinaigrette), and Broccoli Cheddar Casserole with Strawberry Lemonade/Water. Appetizers: served quickly. Quality was okay but not for the price. Was served hot but the queso was already coagulating on the top (nothing a good stir doesn't fix) as was the queso on the cheddar fries. House salads: served second with chilled fork. Salad was pleasantly crisp and chilled. Serving size of dressing was appropriate. Entree: did not take long to arrive (roughly 15-20 minutes). However, we were a but disappointed as my wife's sirloin was fatty with a huge tendon through it. It also was not cooked Medium as requested by Medium Rare (extremely bloody). The steak was hot as was her Broccoli Cheddar Casserole. Mine was very disappointing. My steak was cooked to Medium as requested but was not hot (more room temp) and my Broccoli Cheddar Casserole was cold. The sautéed mushrooms and onions were not served hot either. I even had my wife taste to confirm. We offered our feedback to our server (we never caught her name; we don't even remember her offering it). We were really disappointed to be told this location was having issues with back of house kitchen staff being consistent with quality of orders. Total bill: 67.34 plus $13.51 tip (we always give generously despite the level of service/quality of food) totaling $80.94. Overall satisfaction: food was mediocre at best, ambiance was "okay", but our Server was fast and friendly. read more

We came to Cheddars and specifically asked for a booth in the restaurant because my husband is hard of hearing. After some discussion we seated at a small booth right under a speaker. I complained to the manager Jesse, and he offered one in the bar. I had specifically declined that previously because of my husband's hearing. I have come here since they have opened and previous to that would travel to Gilbert to go. I DO NOT recommend them or find them very accommodating and if you need a refill on drinks get ready to flag someone down! read more

I stopped by with the family to have a yummy dinner, we were greeted right away and there was a little of a wait but not horrible! It was about 5 minutes or so, so that was great! I love the ambiance in here, love the fish tank they have in here! The service is always so great as well. Our server was super nice and attentive. I love their croissants they give as starters with the honey butter it is delicious! We also always start with the Wisconsin Cheese Bites with ranch and they home make their ranch I believe and it is soo soo good! I'm picky with my ranch and theirs is soo goooood! For my meal I got the Number 8 meal it is a chicken tender plate and I get mashed potatoes with brown gravy and buttered corn, yum! Then my mom got the 6 OZ fire grilled sirloin steak with mashed potatoes with brown gravy and buttered corn! Looked delicious! Then my son got a kids burger with french fries. My mom's friend got the beer battered fish with Shrimp with the loaded mashed potatoes and homemade queso and bacon french fries. Everything was yummy and smelt amazing! read more

The food is just not good. I've tried 3 different locations and they all sucked! Food is bland as hell. Skip this restaurant.

The monster cookie was hard. They threw it in the microwave for about 30 seconds. It's not homemade.

The food was fantastic. Lots of fried favorites to try and a few unusual choices also. The service was stellar. Never a water glass empty, server checked on us many times and gave us plenty of time and suggestions regarding food choices. It is a bit loud but just people enjoying their time at Cheddars. Did I mention the fantastic cocktails? Yes, right up there with Capital Grille for the martini. read more

Best experience ever this time at Cheddars-no food pictures but we ordered salmon w/double mashed potatoes, cornbread white fish plate w/rice and French fries and then 8oz. Sirloin steak medium well w/ broccoli cheese casserole and baby carrots. Food was delicious and served warm. The croissants were warm and well buttered. Our server checked in and brought drinks/refills before we asked. Not sure if music was playing but hockey game was on in the bar. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - POT PIE! Delicious and the staff was very friendly - Comfort Food Near Me - Glendale, Arizona

I'd love to give them a 5 star but I find it difficult when placed in a corner in the back of a restaurant that had ample seating. And wasn't busy. Furthermore food was fresh and good. The Buffalo chicken could've done without the hot ranch on the dish because dipping hot ranch into cool ranch just isn't it. The server was hot and cold on attention but it's to be expected from a establishment that I was warned "you'll get food poisoning and their servers are the absolute worst" At least he made sure my drinks were always full even if he didn't speak a word or mention who or what his name was read more

First of all, I was REALLY hungry. I was seated quickly and a friendly server appeared soon after. Good menu with a variety of options to choose from. Relaxing atmosphere. I'm an onion ring lover and Cheddars has been advertising theirs for some time. The appetizer portion is quite ample. I was hoping for a small portion in lieu of fries with my order of fish & chips. (I did get an option of coslaw which was very good). The fish, not so much. The batter on fish quickly went soggy without adding anything such as lemon on it. Fish pieces were small and a bit thin. The onion rings had the same batter as the fish, and they too went a bit limp too quickly. Main issue with the onion rings is that the onions had no flavor and some of the rings used outer layers of the onion that were tough. Overall nit a bad place to eat but quality could be a bit higher for the price. read more

Great food and delivery service. Had the chicken fried steak and tasted just like grandma's.

Great service and delicious food. Fast and very attentitive towards customers. Nice comfortable atmosphere.

Man, I'm gonna be honest. I love coming to cheddars but this visit was extra special. After having a long rough day full of bad news, I walked it and was met with the biggest GENUINE smile. I was promptly seated after she cleaned my booth up within speed and accuracy but her attitude was just so pleasant. It wasn't just a robotic "welcome to cheddars how are you?" With no time to reply, but instead an authentic curiosity about my day. So much so that I had to ask her name to make sure to shoutout great service. My server was quite pleasant as well but a huge shoutout to Harley, as she made my day turn around into something beautiful. This is my new favorite cheddars location and to whoever manages this place, give her a raise! The face of a business starts as soon as one opens the door and she is the perfect beginning. Keep your kindness and keep that amazing smile, thanks again Harley read more

CS was fantastic, Establishment was clean, well merchandised and the Food was impressive. A hidden gem on Bell close to shopping and P83.

Food was maybe lukewarm warm at best. So disappointing. I guess going at 6pm vs 4 pm is a huge difference. Last week at 4pm everything was fantastic. Hot food and great service. Tonight at 6:00 it was sadly not the same. Food on the cooler sad and service was lacking. Had to ask for everything. read more

The perfect place for a ladies lunch is right here at Cheddars! A vast menu with super fresh and delicious food, and service that easily rates 5 stars.

Ambiance: We arrived for during lunch time and the ambiance was very relaxed. A lot of people but also we were able to find a table right way. The building is new and nice cozy and modern decor with a beautiful fish tank. Service: Our waiter was very good and creative speech. Price: good! Not expensive. Food: menu options good, but room for flavor improvement. I got the country fried steak the breading was delicious so crispy but the beef needed its seasoning, my side was broccoli cheese casserole and it was ok but they put rice on it it was kind a odd to me. I have never tried like that before. and baked potatoes it was a small potato and cold the butter and cheese didn't melt. Overall it was good but there is room for improvement on the taste and the food temperature. Oh! The croissant ls were delicious. Thank you for those. read more
