Tried it again because the rest of the family wanted to stop by. We get there and the manager (unexperienced by the sound of it) starts off by saying they cant fit a party of 11. So we say okay, we'll be fine in adjacent booths or tables. We get quoted a 30 minute wait when we're looking at two booths (a corner bigger booth and a regular 4 top). We go up to the podium and ask them if we can sit in different booths and the smart ass manager tells us "so you'd be fine with one sitting on one end of the restaurant and another on the other end?" We could've fit into the two booths with 4 adults on the 4 top and 5 adults & 2 kids on the corner booth that normally sits 6-full sized adults. After all the back & forth with the argumentative smart ass manager with no common sense, we decided to leave and go eat somewhere else. The horde of waiters and waitresses standing around the front with nothing to do while customers are being quoted a 30 minute wait isn't a good look fyi. read more

My family and I have been here many times and we really enjoy eating at Cheddar's. I would recommend sitting in the bar area versus the restaurant seating. The waitstaff is way more attentive and courteous! read more

OMG YUM!!! I love Cheddars! Always have, always will. I've never had a bad meal or drink at any Cheddars location. Need advice on dinner? Spinach dip for an app, monte Cristo for an entree and a spiked cherry limeade to drink! read more

I have not tried anything there that I didn't like. I have never had bad service. Great place to go, especially if you can't decide on what to eat. They have a little bit of everything. Definitely get the rolls and butter. read more

My wife and I went after church today. The service was prompt and very friendly, the spinach dip was great, and I really enjoyed my Asian salad, with the fresh buttered croissant roll. I highly recommend it. read more

Food is not bad, and the place is clean and usually has good service. I just feel it is a little overrated for its prices is all.

Went to lunch with my 4 year old and mom. Was greeted by the friendliest hosts who took us immediately to a booth. Johnny our server was attentive without being intrusive. We both had blackened salmon with black beans and veggies. Cooked to perfection and delish! Great location and lots of happy staff read more

Food and drink prices very well for the amount of food and quality of food you get. Wide variety menu. Great atmosphere. Service could be a little friendlier and more patient. read more

I dine in on May 10, 2018 to celebrate mothers day. We arrived at 6:55pm my dad went up to the hostess to put our name down, the hostess gave him a 45 minute wait time, which we were ok since my mom wanted to eat there. It was 7:10pm and they still had not seated us, I went to the hostess and ask what was going on since it had been more than 45 minutes. I guess the manager was there which did not seem like one, he sarcastically said, No, they gave him an 1:30hr wait I was like ummm weird other ppl that was before us went inside already. 7:40 came and finally sat us, the waiter comes and took our order and all. Time went by and around 8:40 he comes and tell us sorry guys the system didn't print ya food in the kitchen could ya give me order again.... by that time I was pissed. My MOM which we were celebrating end up not eating after all and we got our food like 30 minutes later. Did the manager came by and said some nope! Did anyone else came to see if we needed anything or show interest? Nope! I dine in this restaurant at least 6 times a month! First time I encounter this issue! When it was time to pay did the manager came by or anything nope, until I asked for him! All I said was "hey I dont mine paying the bill, but do you think is ok for my mom to not eat when we came to celebrate her day! Or is it ok that you didn't came by to check if everything was good?? And plus the waiter forgot to put our food! All the manager said was like ok, and did not show any instrest. Definitely not coming back for a while! This establishment seems like they dont appreciated there guest or customers at all! read more

My goodness. This place should be ashamed of calling themselves a Scratch kitchen. I know this isn't going to stop the people who go here. It's just appalling quality. read more

Great tasting food at reasonable prices. Their catfish, tilapia, and salmon is the best I have had in Houston at one place. I have not tried their other entrees, but will update my review as soon as I do. read more

The bartender Kelsie is an absolute all star! In town on business alone, sat at the bar and watched in awe as she almost single handedly served everyone at the bar and the surrounding tables! Food was great, drinks were better. Very impressed! read more

The food was not great! I ordered a plain baked potato and got loaded potato. The mushrooms were can mushrooms and they were cold. The plate they gave me for my baked potato was smaller than my hand, so my food fell off the plate. They should say some where on the menu that the house salad comes with eggs, because I was really grossed out that it did. The beer I got was flat. The table was dirty when we sat down. My wife ordered fried chicken and the breading was falling off the chicken and her green beans were also canned. It was just nasty and we won't be going back there again! read more

This one pf the worst places to go it has the worst service in the world our waitress does not come to us when we call for her that's why I'm leaving this bad review with a one star read more

Okay the best thing on the menu is the Wisconsin cheese bites. You have to try them to honor JJ Watt's home state. Also love the chicken fried chicken the mixed appetizer plate and the street tacos when they have them. This is a great place to take your family. Only draw back is it is so... popular it is best to go at off hours so that you do not have a long wait. read more

My daughter and I enjoyed every bite of our food /she had the combo of half club sandwich and a baked potato - excellent and I had the vegetable plate. Lots of food and delicious. The next time she had the same again and I had chicken fried steak but wish I had stuck with veggies. The chicken fried steak was too thick to suit me. We will go again soon I am sure. Yes I recommend Cheddars. read more

Horrible service. I had heard bad comments about here but I didn't believe them until I went. It was a table of 6 and after the appetizers the food never came. We were there for 1hr and we were trying to be patient and wait but once we reached the 1hr30min we left. The manager came a few times to apologize and said we were going to get our food soon but they were just promises. read more

Food and service is great with plenty of parking space...

Low price..good food....good drinks...awesome decoration. ..expected to pay more at a place that looks like this..good place to pick up the check and look good...lol read more

There were eight of us. Out of the eight one person liked one of the three appetizers the table split. Two person kinda liked their dinner. Out of those two one had diarrhea and vomiting for hours because of the meal. Stay away. It's gross at best and will make you ill at worst. The server was really good. Poor girl deserves a job at a better place. read more

I've been here lots of times with family. They're usually picky eaters but even they like this place. The croissants are buttery and sweet. The ribs are crispy on the outside and tender in the middle. The chocolate fudge cake is decadent. Margaritas and Pain Killer are my favorite drinks here. Overall, good food at a good price. read more

I've eaten at Cheddar's in NC where I'm from and have always loved it! Wanted to introduce a coworker to it while we were here in Houston and was not disappointed. We sat at the bar and were waited on by Katie. She was awesome! There is a fish tank behind the bar which creates an amazing atmosphere. He had the ribs and shrimp, I had the burger with the honey mayo which was scrumptious! Definitely a must if you need an affordable place, with great environment, that you can still have a drink and catch the game at. read more

I had the croissant and they was good and I drink the pain killer was good too as well as the food

Husband and I went in for lunch well the worse lunch ever they didn't have mashed potatoes or baked potatoes well he ordered chicken fried chicken well they serve it on toast he ate a little and cut into the toast and there was a piece of metal on his toast he ask to speak to manager he apologized and said they would give him another meal to go but still charge him I will not go back they use to be my favorite place to eat last few time not the case I sure lost my appetite.Will not go back. read more

This place has good food but normally to eat here it's takes anywhere from 2 to 3 hours so never come with a big crowd .

My husband and I love to eat here, so close to our home and they make you feel like celebrities when you visit. Always smiling and friendly. The spinach dip as an appetizer is the best around and my husband loves the large serving of chicken fried steak. I always get the salmon, which is cooked perfect every time. The prices here compared to Chili's, Applebee's and similar spots is much better and easier on our budget. Nothing bad to say, we go about 3-4 times every month, and have been for the past 6 months ! Awesome-ness.... read more

Terrible service, mediocre food and a long wait. I have no idea why people like this place. I've been twice- the first time was when they first opened so I was more understanding. The last time I went was absolutely horrid. I went with my son and I will never go back. After a long wait, we were seated next to the kitchen (the waiters hangout). Besides all the kitchen activity, the staff stood behind our booth to hide. They were using profanity and laughing a lot. No biggie really- we are not a "G" family, so it wasn't a huge deal, but HAD we been... The food came after having two different servers (apparently the first one was done with her shift) . Here goes the real kicker: about halfway through our meal the entire staff, two or three at a time (literally everyone), would sneak their heads around the booth to peer at something and giggle. It was uncomfortable. Finally after about 20 people looking over my son's head (he didn't notice), I asked what appeared to be a manager what the deal was. He sneered, "There is a reflection on the glass that looks like a ghost." This said without making eye contact and staring at the ghost. It sounds like it would be funny, but it really wasn't. I normally would go with the flow maybe even participate, but this was one of those rare times when my son and I get to go out alone and catch up with each other. I didn't want to make a big scene of complaining, so we just quietly finished the "sub-Bennigan's" type food and left. The more I thought about it, I decided to do something about it. I found the corporate website and filled out a negative comment. I never heard from them. Then a week or so later I thought, "Maybe they didn't get the complaint", so I filed another one. Nothing. This crappy service and corporate disregard just leads me to believe that these folks do not care about a diner's experience. No more of my hard earned money. It's too bad, however, that this is acceptable, even the norm, in my part of town. We do not have a huge selection of restaurants out here, so poor food and service are tolerated. These people wouldn't last six moths inside the loop. read more

This is one of my favorite place to eat in Pasadena, i had the opportunity to enjoy the new item on the menu blackened red fish sandwich, it was delicious and fresh,with tomatoes, fresh pickles, cajun sauce... the only think I was missing was avocado. I asked the server why they don't serve guacamole or slice avocados ( for the avocado lovers- that would be me) he didn't know. Let me just say he was very friendly and courteous. read more

After reading the reviews for this location, I honestly wasn't sure what to expect. Went here with the in-laws last night while hubby was at work. They were on a wait when we got there, but it went very quickly, and we were sat in about 10 minutes. The restaurant was beautiful inside and the bar was very nice. We got cocktails, I got a sangria-frozen margarita swirl. It was $3.50 on the menu menu and it was huge! The prices are all really good. We got Edamame and spinach dip as apps. The spinach dip was very yummy and the edamame were cooked perfectly with a soy ginger sauce on the side along with some toasted spices for dipping. When I was walking to the bathroom I saw people eating the onion rings and they looked delicious. For dinner my mother in law got ribs, which were delicious, my father in law got the Dijon chicken, which another reviewer had complained about, but it was great. Not over sauced at all and the chicken was two boneless skinless breasts, not "preformed chicken patties" as suggested by the other reviewer. The broccoli was fresh and not overcooked, which is a huge plus for me, I hate mushy veggies! And the loaded baked potato was the perfect size. My son got catfish with fries and Apple yogurt salad, which was so yummy and he ate every bite of the fish. My daughter got a kid grilled cheese, which was great as well. I had the sirloin off of the light menu. It was perfectly cooked, the wedge salad it was served with was fresh, and the dressing was good. For dessert my daughter got the individual strawberry cheesecake dessert, which she said was really good, and we got a monster cookie sundae and the chocolate croissant bread pudding. I'm not a huge bread pudding fan, but this sounded so delicious that I had to try it. I was so glad I did. It was probably one of the best bread puddings I have had, and I have had bread puddings at a couple of different 5 star fine dining restaurants. It was a large piece studded with chocolate chips, with caramel sauce drizzled on the plate and topped with vanilla ice cream. The monster cookie sundae was awesome as well. The cookie was warm with a hint of salty that was perfect. The staff was very nice, our server was really good, she had lots of good suggestions when I asked her for advice on what to order. Food and drinks came out quickly, the desserts took the longest, but it wasn't that big of a deal. My father in law is a long time hotel and restaurant owner and before moving here my husband and I ran one of his locations, so you can trust me when I say I am very picky about all aspects of a dining experience. I also understand that sometimes restaurants have off days, as it appears that Cheddars has according to some other reviews. But this was a very good experience, and I typically am not a huge fan of this type of restaurant (I like fine dining, eclectic, not family-friendly, but when you've got the kiddos, what are you gonna do, right?)I will definitely come back here, & would recommend it to others! read more

Love this place, but it feels like the inside of a cooler. The temperature needs to be higher, too cold.

Had okay intro, seating, order etc but messed up with being the main before the appetizer and then making a big deal of 'sorting it out' and then not bringing all the parts of my main. Three times I was interrupted talking to my spouse to let me know that they were subbing my starter (I was still waiting for the shrimp to go with my steak then) as if this was a major victory for me - it was like $4.95 and it just felt cheap and I didn't care to be offered this major 'win', I just wanted to find an okay place nearby to relax and eat okay food, but this place is not it read more

The place was great. I felt the prices were reasonable and the service was fantastic

huge portions for the price man the service ir usally good last time my waiter seemed drunk but she still was fun to talk to

Probably one of the worst experiences at Cheddars I've ever had to endure. We come in to the hostess playing on her phone, wait maybe 15 seconds for her to get off of it (which she doesn't, because apparently her text message is way more important), so I say "hello, I'd like a table for three." Awesome, we get to our booth and we aren't greeted until about 10 minutes later after sitting, mind you it's not all that busy, it's Christmas Eve at about 7:30. She gets our drink, appetizer, and entree order and we're content. Food took a little while to come out but we gave the benefit of the doubt due to the holiday. Overall the food was delicious, although not as hot as we would've liked, it's ok. We get our Togo boxes, pay and head out the door. We did not receive a "have a nice night" or even a "happy holidays" from the hostesses. I've been a hostess at more than three places, and the lack of charisma/respect those girls had was just sad. Cheddars, I would definitely look into getting different girls to represent you as the first and last impression you have in your restaurant. Very disappointing. read more

Service was great , fast and their food was awesome!

Thursday 11/19/15 Cheddars was my go to stop... If I go back it will b to a different location the last 2 times has been bad experience from the waiter to the food!!! The waiter had an attitude because the last customers didn't leave him a tip so he took it out on us... We order the triple treat the chicken tenders was ok the cheese bites was good the potato skin was cold, cheese wasn't melted & the bacon was semi raw we asked him if he can get the kitchen to give us another order potato skins he said let me ask my manager, 3 minutes later he came back with some that was worst... We sat it to the side because I didn't want to get rude & throw it at him!!! So our food comes out the fries r soggy my sister had a club sandwich it was ice cold & the bacon was semi raw he says our sandwiches r served cold so that way it's cold & the bacon looks fully cook to me, we ask for a manager... After waiting 30 minutes no one show up we paid the ticket & left no tip... his tip is the amount we paid for the club sandwich since it wasn't removed from our ticket but Pain Killer was AMAZING like always!!! read more

Not the same anymore, they've made some changes, spinach dip was dry and didn't taste or look freshly made. Croissants were cold and hard..another disappointment. Asian salad no longer served with wontons, and to top it off service was just as bad, our drinks never got refilled. read more

Never try to place an order to go by phone you will grow old waiting for them to take your order! I was placed on hold 25 minutes got in my car and drove over there to place my order in person and I was still on hold! read more

Hands down best best best place to get good food and a great price. I love the Salmon. During busy times there is a bit of a wait but its very much worth it. It's easiest to cut through the CVS parking lot! read more

Can't believe i just went trough this! Been to this restaurant a handful of times! Hell! Just last week i sat at the bar. Service was awesome! Had ordered a salad and had a $11.00 dlr ticket n left a $8.00 tip. Never Been tight with the tip. Always try to leave at least 3x the taxs. All went well at the beginning. 8-10 min wait. Sat there and no service after that. We couldn't even get a waitress to give one look! 15 min passed. I got up and kindly asked if we could get someone to serve us. I was told. Sorry! We ll have someone take care of you if not them personally. Another 15-20 min passed! And not even offered us a Drink! Other people that had gotten there after us were already even eating. Finally got up pulled another waiter to the side. Explained my fustration. More apologies were given. We had to leave the restaurant. I don't know if it had anything with how we were dressed. Or the way we looked. O My Credit score! One thing i do know! For a restaurant to have that many waitresses passing you by and not even look at you! Feeling ignored for the whole time you are there. Is a very awful feeling. read more
