Reviews Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen

Food was pretty good. Those croissants are ridiculous!!! Cheese curds were yummy, spinach dip was kinda dry and chips were all broken little pieces under the top layer. Broccoli casserole was my fav, chicken tenders and shrimp were good, fries weren’t great. Service was meh, no sauces were brought with food even though we asked for everything when ordering, had to wait a bit to get it. Always had to flag the waitress down to get drink refills or anything.

Atmosphere is always pleasant.. Vanessa was such an awesome waitress. Kind, Polite, Attentive, caring, and reliable when we made any request. She made our afternoon attess free. Quality Service! Keep her please! The Food...Always fresh, hot and enjoyable.

First time visitors. Sat in the bar. Great service and food was pretty good. Lots of pecans in the salad. Yum! And the drink is a Painkiller. Delicious! Must try the carrot cake!

Loved the bourbon glazed salmon, Caesar salad was so tasty too. Nicole was a great, personable server and made good suggestions, like the watermelon vod-ka-rita! We will return!

Very good food. Good service. Even my out of town relatives had never been, already want to come back. Portions seemed very large and lunch menu is well worth it.

Since moving to the Carrolwood area, I'm pleased to have found a nice chill spot close by where I can have the best of both worlds, a full bar and comfort food. The Painkiller drink was a Must try! Limited to only 2 orders per person, this drink definitely sneaks up on you! I have a pretty decent tolerance and even I kind of underestimated this drink. Loved the shredded coconut honey soaked rim, and the portion of the drink is very generous. Prices of the drinks and food on the menu was also very reasonable and refreshing to see, as the portions are generous as well. I ordered the chicken tenders and shrimp combo, which is a great dish for land and sea type. 5 tenders with a choice of grilled or coconut fried shrimp, which I definitely went with the coconut. (guilty pleasure, whoops!) Paired with 2 sides of my choosing, buttered corn and broccoli cheddar casserole. Really loved the dish, the batter was nice and crunchy, tasted like it was fried in fresh oil. The shrimp was the best part, crispy with just the right amount of coconut breading, not overly thick where it'd overpower the shrimp. There's a nice side of sauce that's fantastic for dipping, had a nice spicy kick to it that marries well with the coconut flavoring. I also tried a few bites from my boyfriend's dish consisting of the chicken fried chicken with some mash. We were both pleasantly...and deliciously, surprised by how juicy the meat was, considering that it was made with 2 pieces white breast meat! Again, the batter was fantastic and extra crispy. Last but not least, I cannot forget to give a special shout-out to the fabulous yet dangerously good honey butter croissants! Wow! I had to force myself to hold back after eating 2; the warm, flakey buttery croissant with the sweet drizzled honey butter. *Chef's kiss* Great first experience here, other than waiting a while to be seated during a slow time, I will be looking forward to frequenting here more!

Great service. Great food. Great prices Only complaint is the carrot cake needs to be bigger compared to the chocolate cake!! FYI Ribeye bone in

The service was great and food bought out fast. The food was cooked perfectly as ordered and the price not so bad. Everyone smiled and made you feel welcome. The Bacon Cheddar burger was delicious and filling. I’m not from Tampa, but when I go back, I’ll check them out and may try the dessert.

I’m so glad I stopped in on Friday! I hadn’t eaten at a Cheddar’s in a few years. Alexi behind the bar took excellent care of me, you can tell she’s very experienced and attentive to her customers & this country fried chicken was like seriously the best ever! I’ll ne back & I hope I see Alexi’s smiling face behind the bar!
