I personally had ordered chicken fry and shrimp beer batter fry, it was a great choice. We enjoyed our time and enjoyed our meals there. 4 stars is high bar for my rating so don't worry, between 4-5 to me is there is always a room for restaurants to improve in any area and I'm sure Cheddar's is always striving to offer best to its loyal customers. Regardless, everything was great.“
