The menu at Cheddar's is the same at every location. This one is no different. The difference here is the service. This location has HORRIBLE service. We are in town to visit family for Thanksgiving. Our party of six decided to eat out while Black Friday shopping. This franchise is well known to us so 'why not?' Why not? 1. Rude, condescending waitress. When drinks were brought out they were all set on table...which is water? which is Sprite? She actually said: "Well, one of them is water and the other is sprite." So...taste test??? Several other instances (arguing with a guest about something on menu, ignoring a guest when guest tried to discretely tell her guest's order was delivered incorrect, etc). 2. Long wait time for food. Folks were seated next to us after us. Same waitress. The other table ordered right after we did. Their food was served before ours. Ours arrived cold. 3. Not all meals were served at the same time. One person at our table ordered her meal from the appetizer menu. All meals came out 15 minutes before hers did. Simply too many service issues for a chain restaurant. read more

Let's start out with the atmosphere. Basically the only reason this place received a star. That and the fact yelp won't allow you to give them less. All cheddars are designed the same way. It's a pleasant atmosphere with a mix of brick and dark wood throughout the establishment. As soon as you sit down you're greeted with a sudden burst of cold air as they crank the air conditioning as if they are trying to freeze Russian vodka. I'm not sure if it was just the time of day. I happened to visit late at night so I can't say whether or not it's the same. After sitting down in the bar we waited about 10-15 mins before being greeted by a server. Bartenders looked right at us several time. Servers were interested in their friends who were visiting during this late hour. Continued to view the menus that were sticky and covered with old food. Finally we were taken care of by the bartenders. Fast forward to the food. I ordered the jalapeño burger with red beans and rice. The presentation was alright. Nothing special or unique. The burger tasted a little dry and the tomatoes were green and must of been the last slices as they were the ends. Not only that but brown ends. I could go on and on about this place, but by this point you should of changed your mind about visiting here or bored from reading. read more

Cheddar's used to be a 5 star service every time we went in. Since COVID things have gone extremely downhill. We frequent this location fairly regularly. I think this falls on management as our waitress informed us she has split tables across the entire building. Hair in ranch, food served cold and over cooked from being warmed. Manager even came to speak with us, took the drink to refill and never returned the drink. We were there probably another hour and asked multiple times for the drink or a refill, left the other person without any refills and no drink until the end when we were offered a to-go cup. Rarely saw our waitress but she was apologetic. We were there almost 2.5 hours. 30+ min just to get drinks and appetizers together. 30 minutes for a drink. I got to enjoy one whole drink until it was taken away and never returned until the to go. We saw people who arrived after us leave before us. The waitress mixed up my order with a table across from us after I kind of argued with her that's not what I ordered. Very, very, frustrating experience. Based off of this particular service I would not recommend cheddars which breaks my heart because it's one of my favorites to go to. Bland food, undercooked or overcooked from the warmers, one drink for both people over a 2 hour visit. Do not recommend. I will not be placing any more to go orders either. Sadly, many people I've spoke with feel the same way. We used to LOVE this place but over the last year they've went from 5 star rating to an average of 3 in such a short time. read more

Decent food. . . For Midwest City. LOL Place is usually busy because it's one of few nicer places in town v. Just plain chains. Bar has nice atmosphere. Most servers are friendly. In bar, ask for Leah. She is a great friendly bartender/server. Queso with added meat is good appetizer. They do everything well. Not great but nothing is bad. Worth a try. read more

Great! (if you stay away from peak hours and order the right items) This place deserves to be commended. I read all of the other reviews, and didn't see one complaint about quality. I did see some that were for service & seasoning which is to be expected at certain times of the day from this location. Cheddars will take a hit once in while on the reviews because they are so busy. One thing is for sure, if they weren't good it wouldn't always be packed. Any place that stays packed is going to suffer from attrition. The cooks & staff must be exhausted. Compared to other places in MWC they well deserve a 5 star rating, especially because of the Quality, Cleanliness, Consistency, and Affordable Prices. I'm a loyal fan, and I'm smart about what times I'm eating there too. I like to go during off-peak hours, late afternoons are my favorite time to go and have a nice comfortable meal. I always get good service during this time. Here are my favorites: Homemade Onion Rings - they always come fresh and hot with yummy dipping sauces, my favorite is the chipotle sauce. Side Salad - always fresh ingredients, with good choices on dressing minus 1. -- Stay Away from the New Honey Lime Dressing! It isn't good! -- Crispy Chicken Salad - is always fresh salad greens with cheese, tomatoes, and carrots, and I love the Honey Mustard dressing. Comes with a croissant that is "melt-in-your-mouth" good! Baked Spasagna - this is a simple creative dish, that doesn't look like much, but take home the leftovers because you will be craving it again later. I have gouged down on some of these leftovers. Cornmeal Catfish - a big plate of some good catfish with 2 sides, good stuff! BEST ITEM ON THE MENU: Napa Chicken Ciabatta - grilled chicken breast (perfectly seasoned), roasted tomatoes, fontina cheese, avocado, roasted garlic aioli, on warm ciabatta bread - YUM! I usually get the Coleslaw side or Corn on the Cob because I've been eating the onion rings before this sandwich comes. Not so good stuff: Vegetable Plate - for the vegetarians, this a good quality set of veggies, but it is bland, not seasoned very well. Add plenty of salt & pepper. They aren't trying to be exceptionally good on this dish either, and I don't blame them. I give them a pass for even offering this to the customers. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE read more

I use to love this place. But here lately the management has been unprofessional and the food has poor quality. But the severe are polite and professional. read more

One of the worse experiences ever and do not recommend. Went in on a Tuesday evening, restaurant was not busy, plenty of seating and took the hostess forever to seat a group of 4. After being seated, we waited 15 mins and no one ever stopped by or waited on us. We finally gave up and left. This was the first time and will never go back. read more

By far the worst to go I have ever experienced. Do no order here if you want to be on time to anything. The estimate they give on the website is never right. Not even a little. Staff not proactive and does not care that they wasted your time at all. STAY AWAY read more

Absolutely loved the Cheddar's in Tulsa. I was accustomed to great service and great food. My recent experience in Midwest City was sad to say the least. My waitress appeared tired and spread thin, but I was reasonable and understanding. Not a big deal if the food was on point. The spinach dip wasn't tasty and was luke warm. The sprite tasted like carbonated water. My club sandwich was less than mediocre. My fries were no where close to being hot or fresh. The broccoli was overcooked and mushy like mashed potatoes. The only way I will go back here is if someone insists on going and paying for me. I will try to persuade that person to go to another restaurant. I want to chalk it up to having a bad day, but so many things were wrong that it's hard to believe this isn't a daily issue. read more

We love cheddars and we loved our server! I can't remember her name but I remember she had Pokémon earrings and blonde hair. Just wanted to give her some kind of recognition. I normally only do negative reviews ( don't we all ), but she was really amazing! read more

Service sucked beyond belief. 30 min after we sat and we still didn't get all our drinks. Food is the same as usual cheddars. But wow. Consistent we were ing near the bar and most of us ordered water.... And two beers... Not impressed. read more

Terrible service , wait staff very slow and indifferent. I saw a lot of the standing around and texting . They seemed upset when I walked to the back to ask for a refill . The food was very good and tasty and hot. read more

We really wanted to like this place, but just can't go back. The food and service is just too inconsistent. Last night my wife and I both order steamed broccoli and it was really too under steamed to eat and cold. The baked potato was a little underdone and the steak was tough. I think we've been there six times and only two visits were satisfactory. Also, its always meat locker cold (room temp). They always offer to rectify any issue, but that really gets old. Not going back. read more

Last time I stopped by this place, it was just for a couple of beers and an appetizer. The restaurant was kind of busy, and it looked like the bartender was helping out the kitchen. This made service at the bar pretty slow. So, what should have been a relatively short visit was extended out a little bit. Finally, I decided to just order a real meal instead of an app. I finally got my order in and started watching the confusion of the rest of the staff. There was food and drink being delivered to wrong tables, and one waitress kept carrying out food asking different parties if it was there's. Sheesh. I got my meal. Tasty, except the veggies were a little soggy. Finished eating at the bar, had one more beer, and left. I don't know if they were training some new crew or what... read more

First time to this restaurant I thought that food was OK. I got the jalapeno burger and it wasn't too bad at all. Nothing really special about it though, it's just a burger. I'll looking forward to coming back and try their other items on their menu. read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - Jalapeno Burger - American Near Me - Midwest City, Oklahoma

This is based on my experience for take out. I ordered the combo meals. Steak with half rack ribs and the hubby ordered steak with shrimp. So the order took longer than it should've due to ribs not being cooking on time/ they didn't know if they had any ribs left. The cashier was very apologetic and would keep me updated on what's going on. Then the chef personally came out with my order and for my inconvenient wait he gave me a bigger steak! The food was delicious even from the drive home. I definitely will come back and dine in next time. If they were this awesome for take out I can't imagine how terrific their service would be if I dined in. read more

My husband and I have come here twice and had a nice experience. While the wait can get long, the food is pretty good..except for the loaded potato appetizer. Perhaps I'm expecting more than a so-so baked potato smothered in cheese. There was no green (e.g. scallions), bacon or anything else on it. Luckily the rest of our food was good. I got the Monte Cristo and enjoyed the sandwich. read more

Favorite restaurant!! My soon to be husband and I have gone here for years now for some anniversaries, birthdays, many special occasions. Always great food. Love their menu options! Everything I've had is delicious. Including alcoholic beverages!! All good amounts for a fair price! And OMG, the best part is the side salad with the melt in your mouth honey butter croissant! We've had some good memories here, and never a bad experience that we can recall. It's been almost 7 years since I first came here and it never disappoints. Great place that wont break the bank or make you feel guilty for not eating at home. I never turn down Cheddars when it's an option. read more

Feb 10, 2009 This particular location is well below the standards of Cheddar's franchise... The food is well portioned but the service is lacking to the point if unforgiving.. If u are willing to gamble then this is the place for u... read more

This was a second chance run at this place. Last time, I had blackened salmon salad and my friend had a blackened salmon entree. Both were charred to unchewability . So, tonight we tried the restaurant again. The shrimp and tilapia mango salsa was chewable if you like a fish stench that follows your bite of the entree. He had the "new" item; 14 ounce ribeye. Equally as less than average...one can get better quality at Western Sizzler if you dare. read more

Cheddar's in Midwest city is about as average as you can get. Don't get me wrong some times average is what pleases the crowd, and there were a bunch of us. The service was better than usual tonight but the food quality was as predictable as the sun rise. Several members of our party ordered the chicken pot pie which got good marks for taste and portion size. I ordered the beer battered fried shrimp. Just ho hum. The fries that came with it were less than average. The one drink ordered was a frozen margarita and the comment on it was I should have had the tea. There are plenty of average restaurants around and if that's what you are looking for then Cheddar's is the place to be. read more

See all

I've been to this Cheddar's multiple times, especially when I lived in MWC. The food was always exceptional and matches the prices well. Their fruity alcoholic beverages are the bee's knees, too! The service I receive there is average, which is good to me, but not phenomenal. Their monte cristo sandwich may cause clogged arteries, but it's worth it. read more

It was my first time here and it was all kind of an interesting experience. First, the staff was awesome. Super friendly, helpful and attentive. The restaurant was clean and seemed to be kept updated. The menu was a little odd because they offered a full rack of ribs for under $16 but they also offer lasagna for $10. Regardless, the food was good and very affordable. I had the tortilla soup with a half sandwich (club sandwich) and a soda. I would come back if I were in the area if I was looking for something quick and affordable. read more

Not much to say about this place. The service was good but the food was just average. The pot roast was tasty and the chicken Fried steak was good. The chicken and waffles was moist and tasty. But overall, just an average place with average food. Kinda like Applebee's read more

I've never heard of this restaurant until recently. The restaurant is located as a stand alone facility with tremendous amount of parking spaces all around it. The staff is friendly and there isn't a lot of wait time even when it's during peak hours. There is plenty of customers in the restaurant. The dining room staff are friendly and pretty knowledgeable about their menu unlike some places in OKC. I tried the Ultimate Lunch Combo and picked the Buffalo Chicken Wrapper with a side of bake potato. It's just enough food to fill you up. I would recommend this choice, if you have a limited lunch hour or doing a sit down meeting during the lunch hour. read more

Management is very rude and tried to humiliate me when I had an expired coupon. Yes I should have looked closely, but I didn't. She didn't have to make a spectacle of my mistake! read more

My wife and I went to cheddars tonight and the wait was reasonable, only about 10 minutes. Our server (Madisen) was at the table taking our drink orders before I had time to warm the seat. My wife had the spasagna and I had a sirloin with mashed potatoes and coleslaw. The problem with our dinner was that it was so good it was difficult to not overeat! As for service, Madisen was awesome! Madisen took very good care of us and was very professional. Another great dining experience! Cheers! read more

Nice looking restaurant in a good location. The hostess greeted us quickly and had us seated in short order. Our server was friendly and pretty attentive, checking with us a number of times on food flavor and for drink refills. I ordered the Key West chicken and shrimp with steamed broccoli and southern style green beans (they were out of red beans & rice today). Though the broccoli and green beans were slightly overcooked, all of my meal was still quite tasty. The shrimp and chicken were great and very good seasoning. Overall Cheddar's is a pretty good place to have a meal, especially around lunch time provided you get there early enough. Wait times increase and service suffers somewhat if you go at the peak of the lunch rush. read more

Cheddars is usually good about getting the stuff we ordered on time, but this time that wasn't the case. We sat and ordered our food and I ordered my drink at the same time. We've been sitting in the booth for 15 minutes and a group of people just got sat and ordered drinks as well. No more that 7 minutes passed and the group of people besides us got their drinks first, mind you I ordered one drink, one! And the group of 4 got all of theirs first. What kind of service is this? The waitress literally only came by and talked to us once after taking our order. Terrible terrible service!! read more

Would not recommend anyone to go here. Our food was cold and you could tell the cheese had been sitting under a heat lamp for a long time because it had turned into a gel like substance. My chicken was light pink in a uncooked raw way. Our waitress was sweet but never came to refill our drinks the whole time even after asking. One order came back very wrong so we went it back and never received a new plate until we were ready to leave. read more

Why hasn't this resturant caught fire and burned down already?!?! Food is generous in portions but terrible in taste; Caesar salad short on croutons too much shaved Parmesan cheese. Chicken Alfredo pasta had waaaay to much pasta, so much that it made the Alfredo sauce spread to thin making most of the dish dry. Baked potato with just butter and cheese was ice cold. And I had to hunt down a server just for napkins. At 4 in the afternoon on a Saturday? Not returning here ever again. read more

The first word that comes to mind when my daughter suggests we eat at Cheddars is "dirty." The place is always a mess. The first time we tried it, I picked it up and took it home so I didn't take the time to look around the place. However, we enjoyed the food so much (not the edamame, it was a soggy mess) that we stopped in one day with the whole family and sat in a booth by the bar. The crumbs on the seat and table, dirty silverware, and something on the cloth seat behind my daughter's head distracted me too much to enjoy the food. I thought perhaps it was just because it was a Sunday morning... and we were by the bar...wrong. We ate there last Saturday after spending the day at the zoo. My daughter's menu was covered in something I hope was a big glob of dried rice. We had to ask for another menu so that she could see the list. It was gross! I had to wipe off the seat before I could sit down and then go wash my hands before the food came, and there were crumbs all over the table. The Asian salad is my daughter's favorite so she wants to eat there, but the place grosses me out...it makes me wonder what the kitchen must be like... On the upside, they make a decent cajun pasta (minus the chicken and sausage) and the salmon, while a little over cooked, was flavorful and good. The shepherd's pie...well...I can make something better at home. The management is great with food allergies and oversees the preparation of the food, which is a plus. If you don't mind eating a meal while sitting in someone else's dirt, you will probably like this restaurant. But, if you're grossed out at the sight of the mess from diners before you, I'd suggest you get the take out...that's what we do. read more

Service was horrible waited 40 minutes for my order of steak and shrimp. I ordered it medium, when I received it the steak was like shoe leather! This is the second time I have ate here and both times the service was horrible! Never again!!! read more

Have eaten here several times since my original review. The service is much better now. I guess they got that issue resolved. I don't care for their spasagna. Good idea, but it's just bad. The bottom of it was burned and the spaghetti in it was really tough. I would never order it again. Everything else I've had here has been good. The onion rings are awesome. Glad they fixed their service issues. read more

5 people at our table all the food came out cold including appetizers hair in 2 of the dishes manager was very rude do not recommend

Awesome food! Friendly service! They have the best appetizers and food always comes out hot and fresh! Honey butter croissants with the salads just made my day! read more

Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen - American Near Me - Midwest City, Oklahoma

Super disappointed. We used to go to cheddars in Brandon, FL and have also tried the one in norman, OK. We drove 30 minutes to come to one, we love their loaded nachos with chicken. The nachos came out, and they looked delicious, arranged nicely, full chips, minus the jalapenos (which is what we had requested)- only problem, they were beef. I told the girl who brought them to the table that they were supposed to be chicken, she seemed slightly irritated and went to check with our waiter. He came over, apologized and said new ones would be out. Hah. What they gave us was ridiculous. $9 for broken chips and toppings just dropped on them, jalapenos included. Obviously someone in the kitchen got upset and thought it would be pretty nifty to take it out on the customer. Awesome. The rest of our food was okay, but really it just left a bad taste in our mouth. We won't be returning. We'll drive an extra 20 mins to go to the Norman location and take our chances there. The only reason this place is geting 2 stars is for the waiter, he was a sweetheart. read more

This cheddars never hardly ever delivers. Sadly we will wait after a bad experience and give them another chance and they still fail miserably. Today been here almost 45 min. We received cold onion rings and 2 glasses of water. How long does it take to fry some shrimp and make a salad. I swear if this food comes out cold I'm walking out. (pause) Ok so the food came and it's partially cold. Not satisfied! Then bless his heart, the manager Joe comes to the table at our request and stands there saying nothing. My husband asks, and you are? He tells us he's joe the manager and gives us a run down on the problems they're having. He further tells us that he will remove the onion rings( which were never corrected or eaten) from our bill. We thanked him and told him we never ate the onion rings. He left and then came back and said he would take care of our entire dinner. We are not the couple who comes in trying to get a free meal. What we do want is great customer service and good food. We thanked Joe again gave our waiter a nice tip and left. This Cheddar's has always struggled. I'm going to include them in my prayers. Jesus take the wheel. read more

Today at dinner we had a waitress named Cici. She was very sweet and and helpful. We had a great dinner experience tonight at dinner. Thank you Cici for tonight dinner experience read more

The service was bad . Me and my family got there at 4:20 and we got seated around 6:30 . My sister order ribs and they must of mistaken it and served her A steak . I ordered The alfredo they had and the first plate there was hair in it and they got me my second plate it was cold, so then we finished out food and we get the checks and we payed separate and my sisters credit card got charged 47 dollars but the bill had said $39.02 so we told them the problem and they said something had been wrong with the system and they told us to check the card in a couple minutes and still nothing has not been changed. And we had a problem with one of the waitresses with her attitude and she got the manager on us so we told him the problem but her name was Alexis and the waitress in training was super nice i didn't catch her name . read more
