    Honey Butter Croissants
    Greg H.

    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

    Honey Butter Croissants

    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.

    Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5 5/5 on the honey butter croissants!! Recommended dishes- the grilled salmon Our steak came out a little under to how we liked it but they had no issues with making it right for us :) Noise level- easy to talk, family setting.

    Meatloaf & chicken fried steak weren't very good, nothing had any seasoning, taste like hospital food, meatloaf is really strange taste, salad was delicious & service was great Chicken fried steak was a lot of breading.

    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 .

    Good food. Love their sampler. The ceaser salad is yummy as well. They give you croissants as complementary. They are yummy.

    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.

    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!

    So good

    First time here. Very nice. Fairly quiet. Croissant with sweet butter drizzle. We are here for deep fried Monte Cristo. I hear its the best around. Very friendly and attentive staff.

    POT PIE! Delicious and the staff was very friendly

    Do you guys serve actual food? Or just crap like all the other chains? The food here looks highly processed.

    Pretty dumb question. You should probably just not go. With that attitude, you won't like it.

    Do you have happy hour?

    As per the employees, there is no Happy Hour. However, there should be! They have a very nice bar area and I would consider coming back for a Happy Hour.

    Is it Open?

I preferred the regular pork soup dumplings to the seafood ones. The seafood ones had a faint echo Szechuan peppercorns in them which I didn't like. My husband really likes their spicy beef noodle soup. This location doesn't have the lamb soup even though it's on their printed menus. Each table has a QR code that you use to order and once you've made your selections, someone comes by to confirm your order. You can also place your drink orders with them when they come to confirm your order. When you're ready to pay, you confirm that you want to pay via the ordering system. Then someone comes with your check. The restaurant is smaller but the staff is quick to clean tables and set them up again for the next customer. When you arrive, utensils, napkins, and plates are already on the table. They're quick to bring out a small container of refreshingly cold ice water and cups while you peruse the menu.

In my opinion, it's overpriced for the quality and experience. The xiao long bao was just okay -- nothing memorable. The spicy dumplings were super doughy, and the chili oil had almost no flavor besides heat. I kept expecting more depth and richness, but it was basically just spicy without the savory flavor you'd want. The beef noodle soup was actually pretty good and had a generous amount of beef, and honestly the house fried rice was probably the best thing we ordered. The ordering process was also a little awkward. You order through a QR code, then someone comes over to verify the order before it's placed. Paying at the end took way too long too -- we were sitting there waiting forever just to pay the bill. Overall, I'd honestly rather just go to Din Tai Fung. I always root for local spots or good "dupes" of popular places, but this one felt mediocre across the board. Between the slow service, average food, and high prices, it wasn't worth it for me.

Interesting, varied menu, too! Very generous portions... and the chicken pieces were real, actual sized pieces of chicken... not like the canary-sized tidbits served up by today's fried chicken chain outlets!
