    the outside of a restaurant
    Ivan C.

    I was told that this was the best BBQ in Sherman, and they did not disappoint! I tried the brisket, the loaded baked potato, loaded fries, beans, grape Kool-aid, and best of all the jalapeño poppers. These jalapeño poppers are unlike any others I've had! It's a jalapeño, stuffed with brisket, then wrapped in bacon before being smoked. I didn't see these on the menu, so ask if they're available. DEFINITELY try these if you get a chance, you won't be disappointed! The brisket is very good on its own, and I'm not one to typically put BBQ sauce on my brisket, but both regular and spicy versions of the BBQ sauce they make are really good! You could make a meal out of the loaded baked potato or the loaded fries. When they say loaded, there is literally no more room for them to put any more into the box! The beans are really good and flavorful. There is sausage and bits of BBQ mixed in that give the beans a great tangy and smoky flavor. The grape Kool-aid brought me back to when I was a kid, being just the right amount of sweet, and a great compliment to have with the meal! I'm glad I was able to try this spot out and the recommendation was spot-on! If you get a chance, go out back and check out the HUGE smoker, probably the biggest I've ever seen!

    This trip was worth every penny! After months of staring at this place, I have to say the brisket is smokey, the salad is crispy, and beans are yummy. The Loaded baked potato was full of flavors that dance on your palate like no other. If you're in the area, you should swing by and sink your teeth into this place.

    This is my food I got loaded fries they were AMAZING.

    Food was great. It was so fun. U have to eat either in ur car or outside, but otherwise it was great. Service was great they were so kind. Def going there again.

    I love Magic Smoke! The second I saw one of these potatoes advertised I knew they would be delicious and I wasn't wrong! They are my go to place for a good loaded baked potato! Plenty of toppings & great portion size! The only thing keeping me from eating here more often is the hours.

    If you like your brisket and chicken dry, this is your place. Had to throw the chicken out. the bbq sauce is good. Expensive.

    we have frequented this Cheddars many times. other than minor things-haven't felt the need to…read morebother with a revie. today we were there directly across from the aquarium. there was a dead fish floating in there. not terribly appetizing and you know kids like to watch the fish. ok. so I tell a bell hop. We had noticed that the MOD had walked by several times not giving us or the aquarium a second loo. We bring to our waitresses attention. she said she would pass it along. then the manager walked by again-so we call her over. she became very loud...(maybe to be sure everyone heard and didn't mention again?). there was a bigger fish nibbling at the dead one. she let us know that there was nothing the staff could do about it because a company maintains the aquarium. Stating she's heard it 20 times today. "ok, can you cover it up?". she laughs-continuing to talk loudly. she was very unprofessional and it was not a good experience. lots of kids around.

Order water and it comes out of an unfiltered tap. Tastes chlorinated... I'm stuck drinking beer on my late morning meal but I would rather have water.

    I've been trying to visit this place for ONE WHOLE YEAR, and my visits to Sherman haven't allowed…read moreit before. FINALLY, I got to visit and I will never make a trip back to the area and not go. I'm up that way about once every few months and this place will be at the top of my visit list. I ordered the Chicken Shroom Melt... y'all, they served it with a fork. That should tell you everything you need to know! The chicken breast was pounded thin or butterflied so it was easier to eat...but it was loaded with cremini mushrooms, onions and spinach, all in a cheese Alfredo sauce. It didn't taste overwhelmingly like Alfredo though. It was so beautiful and messy, that fork came in handy! The tomato basil soup for dipping was good! My little girl got a kids ham and cheese and shared the soup with me. The flavor was great and was deep and rich, not watery or thin at all. My boyfriend got the bacon Mac and cheese grilled cheese. Yup, it had all that in between two beautiful toasted pieces of crisp bread. It would be perfect on a cold winters day with the tomato soup. For drinks, I had the 903 hard seltzer. They threw a dash of cranberry juice in it. I'm a BIG had seltzer fan and this was wonderful. Crisp and CLEAN. It had a great, fresh, taste. I also tried the Cannonball Run, which is a sour beer. It was so amazing I snagged a 4 pack to bring home with me. Needless to say, I can't wait to come back!!!

    The OG grilled cheese was amazing! My friend got the Caprese grilled cheese and it was awesome…read morealso. The sour dough bread is the make or break. Great job!!!
