    We decided to come here on our way home from Houston. It's a family style restaurant. Kind of reminds me of Chili's. The service was amazing. Quick and efficient. Now let's get to the food. The honey butter croissants?! Life giving okay! I would sacrifice all my carbs on those things! One of us got the smokehouse burger. She was not a fan. Another from our party got the grilled shrimp Alfredo. She said it was a little bland but salt helped. I was able to taste the Caesar pasta salad, the flavor was fire!!! Personally, I got the fall off the plate baby back ribs with loaded mashed potatoes and a side Caesar salad. Salad was standard. Potatoes were nice and thick which is how I like them. The ribs were the star! Literally falling off the bone! No need to cut them. So good. If you haven't been, try them out.

    Honey Butter Croissants

    Love me some cheddars. Tastes the same as I remember. Fried chicken with gravy with broccoli cheddar casserole still smackssss. Butter honey croissants heavenly. And the sampler platter was so much and filled me up.

    This aint 6 ounce

    When we asked for drinks I ordered a root beer right and the waiter repeated it to confirm it the when I take one sip its Dr pepper I take a sip of my brothers drink to see if it was mine and it was also Dr pepper so im mad but I dont say anything because the waitress looked like a young teenage boy who's new then when we got our food they said they over cooked my mom's medium rare or whatever type of steak it was supposed to be so they re did it it took almost 10 minutes to get it and it takes at least 5 minutes to finish it when my mom got her food it wasn't hot and it was supposed to be a six ounce but it didn't look like it like you see in the picture the waitress kept going to thr other tables multiple times and would just stare at our table and would take a while to go to us I didn't like it but said nothing we waited for the check but the waiter was gone for a very long time so we paid on the little tablet thing and left hes lucky my grandma even tipped 20 bucks it should've been no tip I do not recommend first and last time going.

    Wisconsin Cheese Bites
    Benjamin L.

    This is my first time at Cheddar's and it was delicious. I have always heard about their croissant, but never had a chance to try it. Man did it not disappoint. It was so flakey, buttery, and the sweet drizzle completed it. We got their Wisconsin cheese bites, chicken tender and ribs, and chicken pot pie. It was so delicious. The crunch on the Wisconsin cheese bites and chicken tenders was amazing. In addition, with the ranch it paired so well. The ribs were amazing and fell right off the bone.

    App and the ordering thing impossible to figure out

    Seated quickly. Server was right there. Odd two other servers were sitting in our booth when we got there. Go sit in the back. I've been to cheddars maybe twice before. I know why. Menu is sort of limited if you are in any special diet. So for me. Low carb. Everything is breaded and fried, pasta etc. ok they have 6 steak options I had a sirloin. I could have had much better at outback Spinach and artichoke dip app was good. Drinks right out. Then sold and meals bam everything on the table at once. Not a fan and no need to rush. Steak was cooked good had good flavor a bit tough. Southern green beans were not southern. They were flat Italian green beans with no seasoning, onions bacon. They also weren't cooked all the way. That's what I was expecting. The broccoli cheese casserole was odd. Very thick and like warm. Not likely to be back.

    Cute place with a heartwarming backstory. Nice and busy for brunch on a Saturday morning!…read more I got the scrambled eggs with chorizo and onions and it was DELISH. Also came with a biscuit and jam, which were average - the biscuit tasted like it might have been from a box or mix rather than scratch? But not sure. My friend got the Oliver's breakfast which was a large portion, and she also got a blueberry pancake, which was packed full of blueberries and had a nice crispy edge. She also ordered hot tea and got to choose her tea bag from a lovely box, which was a cute touch. The only thing I might say is that the owner was a bit brusque/gruff. I understand being businesslike and I know customers can be a pain in the food industry, but his attitude was just not very welcoming I suppose. Still a good experience overall though! Glad to see Oliver's is doing well!

    My significant other and I found this place on TikTok and specifically came to try the pancakes. We…read morearrived at 1:30 PM and were told they stop accepting customers at 1:30, even though their advertised closing time is 2:00 PM. If you stop serving customers at 1:30, then that should be reflected in your business hours. We could have saved ourselves the time and gas driving there. What made it even more frustrating was being told that breakfast was already cut off because they had "sold too much" that day. That was honestly confusing considering this restaurant is known for breakfast, operates during brunch hours, and advertises that it is open until 2:00 PM. We also weren't the only customers being turned away. It was extremely disappointing and felt very unprofessional. If customers arrive during your advertised business hours, they should be able to expect service. We arrived with plenty of time to order, eat, and be finished by closing.

    If you're craving real Southern comfort food, Mikki's is definitely worth a visit. We stopped in on…read morea busy day, and the line was almost out the door, which is always a good sign. Even with the crowd, the line kept moving, and there was no shortage of delicious-looking options on the steam table. From fried chicken and turkey wings to baked fish, spaghetti, cabbage, green beans, mac and cheese, dressing, black-eyed peas, collard greens, candied yams, mashed potatoes, and more, it was hard to decide what to order because everything looked homemade. I ordered the turkey wing with collard greens, black-eyed peas, mashed potatoes with gravy, rice, a corn muffin, and sweet potatoes. I also grabbed a Suicide Punch, which is a mix of all their Kool-Aid flavors. First, let's talk about those sweet potatoes... BABY!! They absolutely stole the show. They were piping hot, buttery, perfectly sweet, and hands down the best thing on my plate. I could've easily eaten another serving. The collard greens were seasoned beautifully with a rich, smoky flavor and plenty of pot liquor. They were tender without being mushy and tasted like they had been cooking all day. The black-eyed peas were creamy, well-seasoned, and comforting, while the mashed potatoes were smooth and paired perfectly with the savory gravy. The rice soaked up every bit of that gravy, and the corn muffin was soft with just the right touch of sweetness. The turkey wing itself was tender, juicy, and covered in flavorful gravy. My only surprise was that I was expecting just the wing portion, but instead I received the whole wing with the drum attached. It wasn't a big deal because it was still delicious--I just personally prefer getting only the wing. The Suicide Punch was another winner. If you grew up drinking Kool-Aid, you'll appreciate it. It's sweet, refreshing, and a fun mix of all the flavors. My family ordered several other dishes, so we got to try quite a variety. We had baked chicken, macaroni and cheese, candied yams, and black-eyed peas, and everything was generously portioned. The baked chicken was moist and well-seasoned, and the mac and cheese had that creamy, homemade taste you hope for from a soul food restaurant. My only real complaint was that some of the food was served lukewarm instead of hot, which took away from the experience a little. Soul food just hits differently when it's fresh and piping hot. Ironically, the sweet potatoes were the one item that came out nice and hot, and they were absolutely perfect. Overall, Mikki's serves authentic soul food with generous portions and flavors that remind you of Sunday dinner at a family member's house. The food is comforting, the selection is impressive, and it's easy to see why the place stays busy. If everything had been served hot, this would've easily been a five-star experience. Pro tip: Don't leave without getting the sweet potatoes and a Suicide Punch. Trust me--you'll thank me later. sweet potatoes and a Suicide Punch free refills. Trust me--you'll thank me later.

    Pretty good experience as always, but I'm taking off a star because my sweet potatoes were left out…read moreof my order. I think the employee handling the sides may have been having an off day. She seemed a little disengaged, was speaking very softly, and I believe that's where the mix up occurred. The correct sides were prepared, but they ended up on the wrong plate. I was definitely looking forward to my sweet potatoes, so it put me in a bit of a funk. Next time I'll check my order before leaving to make sure everything is there.

    Two stars for the food. I ordered the catfish and shrimp meal, none of which was anything to write…read morehome about. Both the catfish and shrimp were heavily floured, with minimal seasoning. We also ordered hot wings, which were hard and seriously over cooked, we tried to eat them but decided our teeth were more important. To order, you must scan a QR code and order via the Toast app. Initially I wasn't thrilled by this process, but decided it was a convenient way to order. Plus, it made it easier to order additional items from the bar or kitchen. One problem with this method...our server didn't stop by our table to check to see if we needed anything else. We had to flag down other servers for items, such as eating utensils, glass for beer, napkins, hot sauce, etc. We did enjoy a fantastic concert, and I will return to enjoy others, but would not stop by to eat.

Server- our server Nik was great, very friendly, gave great drink recommendations and was definitely attentive to the tables. Food: When you check in on Yelp you do get 25% off of an appetizer. I will start with the drink Strawberry Hennessy..... oh yeaaa that was on point, had a nice kick to it. I was also to the Hand Grenade is also a great choice. I will start with the side, the green extreme spicy for me. To me the spiciness overpowered the flavor to get a taste of the greens. This one I had to send back which our server did ask if I wanted something else. The Mac and cheese was very bland slightly cheese flavor but no other seasoning. To the main course Seafood Portifino which was blacken catfish with lobster sauce. The blacken catfish did not have the blacken taste to it. Then shrimp was really good, the sauce had like a cheese taste. I was disappointed with the food. But I gave a 3 because I would go back for the drinks and live music. Nice for a date and a group of friends.

She was the highlight of our experience, and my disappointment is solely with the food, not the service. I truly appreciate her kindness and professionalism. (The one star is because of her) I was really looking forward to trying the Dirty Bird, which is advertised as their signature Nashville hot chicken and waffles, but it was a major disappointment. The chicken tender wasn't spicy at all, so it completely missed the mark for Nashville hot chicken. The gravy tasted more like cream of mushroom soup than a flavorful chicken gravy, and it soaked into the waffle almost immediately, leaving it soggy instead of crispy. Overall, the flavors didn't work together, and this dish fell well below my expectations, Unfortunately, this experience was enough that I won't be returning or recommending this restaurant to others.
