I've worked in the industry for years have a pretty tough skin. But sad to see a local business run like that. Do better for your community and staff.

They have a small bar area, indoor seating, and a customer restroom that's tucked away in the back. When I stopped in, there were several people dining in, and it had a relaxed, homey atmosphere. Overall, I'd definitely recommend Down Home Cafe, especially if you're looking for a comforting brunch or a laid-back Sunday meal. I'll definitely be back for those chicken and waffles! Oh!

I am writing to express my disappointment with our recent experience at your restaurant in…read moreFredricksbrugh, Virginia. Our party of eight expected a pleasant family dinner, but unfortunately we encountered multiple issues that made for a very frustrating visit. The most concerning issue involved the "grilled" chicken. My wife has a gluten allergy, so she specifically ordered grilled chicken, assuming it would not contain flour or breading. After noticing that the chicken did not appear to be grilled, we asked our waitress about it. She checked with the kitchen and informed us that flour is used when preparing the chicken. This was extremely alarming, as someone with a gluten allergy would reasonably expect grilled chicken to be free of flour. If this information is accurate, it presents a serious concern for guests with dietary restrictions. To make matters worse, when we brought this concern to the manager, he dismissed it by saying the waitress "should not have said that" and insisted the chicken was grilled, despite the fact that it clearly did not appear to be. Rather than taking our concern seriously, he became confrontational when my father-in-law attempted to discuss the issues with him. His response was unprofessional and showed little interest in addressing our legitimate concerns. There were several additional problems with our meal as well. One member of our party ordered a steak medium rare but received it well done. On top of that, two of the eight meals did not arrive until after the rest of the table had already finished eating. By that point, those family members either had to eat alone or rush through their meals while everyone else waited. I want to make it very clear that our waitress was not at fault. She was courteous, attentive, and did the best she could in a difficult situation. The problems stemmed from the kitchen and, more importantly, from the way management handled our concerns. Instead of listening, apologizing, and attempting to make things right, the manager became defensive and dismissive. Our family chose Cheddar's expecting good food and good service, but we left extremely disappointed. The lack of concern for a potential food allergy, the kitchen mistakes, the significant delays in service, and the manager's confrontational attitude are unacceptable. I hope this complaint is taken seriously and that steps are taken to improve both food preparation and customer service so other families do not have a similar experience.
