“Updating my review after experiencing
what may be the best customer service I have ever received.
Yesterday, I ordered a wrap for delivery (*learned today that they have their own delivery on their site which is way better to use than something like Uber). I unfortunately recieved an abnormally disappointing meal, after frequenting Outpost in the past and always getting great food. So I posted about it here.
Within 24 hours one of the owners Wendy personally reached out, apologized for the abnormal experience, and offered to make it right. They went ABOVE AND BEYOND offering to give them another try at no expense to me. The wrap I just grabbed today was delicious (thank you, Ian).
Would highly recommend Outpost for food, but also their service is truly top notch.“

After having a terrible experience on July 4th with service and food, management contacted me about the review and sent me a $50 gift card to try and make things right and reconsider coming back. Went back yesterday and service was the complete opposite of my prop experience. We were greeted and seated right away. Our waitress was very prompt and the food was very good. I saw the refreshed menu with the 2 for $25 new options including the bacon cheeseburger wonton tacos and they were delicious. The shell was crispy and not soggy like the last Time I got chicken wonton tacos. I’m glad to see an improvement in such a short time to where I am revising my review.“

“I have always enjoyed Cheddar’s restaurants.
There was a restaurant in Michigan that I frequently visited often and loved it . My husband has never been so I treated my husband to dinner, And unfortunately he was not impressed. He ordered his steak medium rare and he got medium. No he did not complain.
Margarita was delicious! My lemon pepper chicken was amazing. To be honest- Cheddars Does not have the best quality of steak. You’re paying a lower price for a lower grade. This is not a five star steak restaurant. If you’re expecting high-quality steak you will be disappointed. I had a great experience- My husband did not. I think I’ll be coming on my own next time :-(“
