    Came in on a Saturday afternoon. We were seated right away, as it was not crowded at all. I love Cheddars for the pricing and proportions that you receive for it, and this was no different. The top sirloin and shrimp hit the spot!

    Arrived with a party of 10 and were told that it would be about 30 minutes wait time, which was great. Once our table was ready, the host walked us in and directed us to two booths, not directly next to each other. I was a bit upset, because we were not told our group would be divided. We wouldn't have agreed to dine in, if that was the case. After going back and forth with the host and another manager/server, not sure who really, we decided to break our group as best between the two booths. Our server, Mitch, was phenomenal. He worked his magic and saved the night and took wonderful care of our now divided group. Food was good, drinks were great, and the service provided by Mitch was phenomenal. Not sure this review would have been a 4 start without Mitch.

    Met up with some friends for lunch here. We arrived right at 11 AM when the location opened. I went with the grilled chicken pecan salad. I really enjoyed the salad, although the candied pecans were pretty hard to bite so I ended up leaving most of them in the salad. Really enjoy the honey Dijon dressing that goes with the salad because it gives it a nice tan and the chicken was cooked perfectly. They have a large parking lot so plenty of space to park and it is a pretty large location so if you have a group, definitely a good location to bring them to

    I wasn't sure what to expect when we went into Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen, the parking was fairly quiet and we had no wait when we went into the restaurant. We were greeted and seated immediately, and it was lunch time so it was fairly quiet in the restaurant. There's a nice cozy atmosphere, with booths, tables, and little alcoves where you can be seated. The decor and the theming are modern but homely. We were very quickly greeted by our server and he asked if we had been here before and gave us a few suggestions as we were both new. Shortly after he brought the house honey butter croissants which I have to say are the best item I've had as a free "bread" option. You get one order of the croissants for free and we definitely asked for some more to go home with at the end!! I've always been a pastry fan and these croissants were fresh and tasty and the honey butter was absolutely incredible. Food came out shortly after, it was hot, the fries were perfectly seasoned and my fish was light and flaky. I'd read a lot of mixed reviews about Cheddar's but they were quickly put to rest, because our experience was nothing short of fantastic. Our server was excellent, very attentive and friendly, I unfortunately didn't catch his name, but he was a tall Latino gentleman with short hair in a Caesar cut. We will definitely be back as the all around experience was amazing and the food was great, and the prices were competitive, especially on the lunch menu!

    Great many options for all tastes. Great service, attentive and friendly. Ambience is loud. Many kids crying unfortunately.

    Dijon Chicken & Mushrooms
    Chris K.

    Kicked off with a WATERMELON TEXAS FROZEN SWIRL and a complimentery HONEY BUTTER CROISSANTS. Followed by DIJON CHICKEN & MUSHROOMS with SOUTHERN GREEN BEANS and a CAESAR SALAD. Sooooo....starting with the cocktail. Shouldn't be a surprise that that it was a little too sweet, but also artificial and a sort of medicine taste to it. The salad was basic and nothing too memorable about it. As for the chicken, the Dijon sauce was the best part. The chicken itself was a little dry and over done. The rice and green beans were under done with both having a little too much crunch!

    Cheddar's Trio Sampler  The spinach dip was crunchy, queso salty and watery. Chicken tenders were great!

    The food was good but our Server Drew made the experience better. He was patient and funny. We had a party of 5 and Drew was on it! Everything came out hot and fresh. He explained corporate is making some changes and I know times are hard but some things don't make sense! Like cutting back on napkins. People always ask for extra napkins. We had a dozen of small to go boxes instead of a couple of big boxes. I'm a business owner so that's wasteful! We enjoyed everything appetizer platter. The spinach dip, it was just roughage! Wasn't creamy, no cheese, dry and crunchy! Didn't like the queso either. It was very salty and runny. But other than that everything was good! My family really enjoyed the happy hour drinks they have all day. But their menu is pretty economical, especially in today's economy!

    Grilled Shrimp Alfredo

    There were a lot of people hanging around outside the restaurant when we arrived. I assumed that it would be a long wait due to the crowd. However, we were greeted and seated immediately upon arrival. The atmosphere was dimly lit, yet cozy and romantic. There were TVs around the restaurant with a huge beautiful fish tank being its focal point. Our server was a friendly gentleman, but I forgot his name. We decided to forgo the appetizers and dive right into ordering the entrees. I ordered the 8oz steak with fries and a house salad. We also ordered chicken fingers with fries, and a shrimp and broccoli Alfredo. The food was wonderful! I would definitely recommend this place if you are looking for American comfort food.

    Country Fried Top Sirloin Steak & Chicken Tenders
    Ingard V.

    First time in this location and, another win! Service is casual and friendly, food is glorious, and the painkiller was killing it! I had the country fried steak, and I was a little hesitant due to other locations, making it extremely breaded . But this one was on point. My girlfriend had the chicken tenders and shrimps, and they were perfectly crispy. Yes, the croissants were freshly done and still warm. I didn't give five stars because there was an issue with our dessert . It took half an hour . However, let me be very clear and emphasize that the server kept checking back with us and let us know that they had an issue with the cookie and had to remake it. The manager even came and apologize and offered us something else and yes, the dessert was on the house. It's just that it was an insane amount of time. But that won't keep me from returning and being a loyal cheddars fan.

    Painkiller, loaded potatoe and chicken pot pie
    Luis C.

    Came in for some lunch and had a very filling meal. The painkiller was strong, the loaded baked potato was filling and the chicken pot pie was delicious! Best pot pie I've ever had, ruined Marie Calendars frozen pot pies from Costco for me.

    The food was amazing!!!!!! But it was a little bit of a wait, but the food was worth it. It is a great place to go too and I think you will in joy Cheddar's too!!!!!!

The curry tasting was outstanding; it's honestly hard to describe, you have to try it for yourself. The catch of the day was sea bass, and getting it as a fillet was definitely the right call no bones to deal with, and it was perfectly cooked. The rice that came with it was also flavorful and complemented the dish really well. For dessert, we had the flan and chocolate mousse, both rich, creamy, and delicious.

I honestly can't remember what everything was called or what was in it, but I definitely recommend ordering it. The bao buns were just okay to me, but the pork chop was absolutely delicious and full of flavor. My husband loved it, so of course I had to try it too! During the bread service, our server let us know they had run out of some of the bread selections, so the portions wouldn't be exactly as intended. They ended up comping it and gave us what was still available, which I thought was really thoughtful since we probably wouldn't have even noticed the difference. They also gave me complimentary chocolate cookies for my birthday, which was such a nice touch because you really don't get a lot of free extras at Disney.

    This restaurant is such a cool idea to pay homage to "American classics". The vibe, with the cars,…read moremotors, fueling stations, is such a cool idea. We were seated immediately, all the staff were friendly (shoutout to our server Lucas who went above and beyond to make our dining experience amazing). They have a great drink selection, beers, mixed drinks. The "Ol' reliable Tea", was a bit more bitter than my wife would have liked, not a problem, Lucas brought a bit more of the rosemary honey concoction to sweeten up the drink". The buffalo wings were great and spicy. The kids devoured their kids menu cheeseburgers, and the Estate burger was one of the best burger combinations I've ever had; savory, sweet because of the red onion marmalade, tender, juicy... it was firing on all cylinders :-) Now all this good and only a four star review?... I'll explain. We are in town from the North East on vacation and this is the second establishment that has an included 20% service charge that is shared for all employees. Fine, if that's the rules, I'll play by them. But on top of that, our personal server only gets to share that tip and has to ask for additional tip? They have to become salesmen for their level of service?!? Very strange business practices and be prepared for your bill to automatically increase by 30% - 40% because of taxes, mandatory service charges, and additional personal tip. We did end up tipping our server in cash because he was just that good!! But if it was just an average experience, I would have been fine by walking out of there being fleeced for the mandatory 20%.

    Ok.... the food was decent. But I was really upset when we tipped over 20% and found out they…read morecharged for the tip already. We sat at the bar. And the bartender didn't say a thing!!!!

The appetizer platter was great, but we probably wouldn't do it again just because we were so full and couldn't eat all of mine, I had like a whole meal of leftovers. The place is really themed fun, everything is black and white...comic book vibes, 2D, just really cool. 100% would recommend, absolutely going back the next time we're in Florida. We did get 10% off since we were headed to Halloween Horror Nights after (after we dropped off my leftovers, lol) so that was a nice bonus, we didn't know about that before going in...I hope they do that every year. I mean we're going back either way, but a discount is always fun! Oh yeah, husband also enjoyed his, even though he was as full as me and should have taken half back to the hotel for a midnight snack (meal) like I did, he finished the whole thing!

I've come here for my birthday. I already have plans for a visit when my family gets here in two weeks. Obviously, the food is phenomenal. I usually get Art's Famous Fried Chicken, which they say is Buttermilk-brined for 24 hours then and then flash fried. I have a severe shellfish allergy, and they're always very cautious. No matter who the server or floor manager is. Typically, it's served with creamy mashed potatoes, but I usually swap it out with Momma's Mac and Cheese. I've also had the Smothered Chicken, Bee Haven Fried Green Tomatoes, and the Skilled-fried Chicken Paillard, which is what most of the staff recommends as their favorite dish.

We love to pop in to Nomad Lounge during our Animal Kingdom day! After an early start with hopefully a trip around the savanna, it is a wonderful escape and cool place to sit and sip! Even though it isn't meant to be adult only, grab a table outside on the porch and you'll be secluded without children running around too! The drinks here are so creatively themed and deliciously fresh too. We grabbed a Zingiber Fizzie and a Snow Leopard Salvation without alcohol. Both are overflowing with fresh herbs and a perfect cool sippage to lounge!!! But... the real treat here is the food menu too. Newly updated - but still with homages to the classics!! We grabbed the Chinese Five-Spice Glazed Chicken Wings and the Churros! I loved the PBJ wings but the flavor of these wings is out of this.. jungle!!! The churros are still the same... best churros in WDW... but the new blueberry sauce is a perfect pair with the vanilla crema.. double dip, if you want the perfect bite of sweet and sour! The waiters take such excellent care of you with the perfect blend of relaxation and attention! You'll want to take this quick lounge break every time you come... so be warned!
