Cheddar's Lufkin Reviews
Cheddars is my favorite restaurant. The rib meat falls off the bone and melts in your mouth. Not to expensive and you get left overs for lunch the next day and it still taste the best. The prices are great for the amount of food you get.
They have the best food! Just make sure to double check your steak. Sometimes medium rare comes out medium and sometimes it comes out rare. I typically go with medium rare seared on one side. Overall, the savory flavor of the steak is good enough that adding A1 is pointless.
Had a great time with some friends! It was so nice to have dinner and hear the conversation. Other places have the music too loud, but not here! The food was great, the service was great! It was a great experience, we will be back soon!
dear cheddars, you will always have my heart💘 From the croissants as soon as you sit to the take out box. Everytime I come I try something new. Today I went with family who got a variety of different foods. I really recommend the artichoke as the appetizer, as for the entrees i’ve never had something i didn’t like. Will definitely always be a customer!! Thank you for the amazing service and full belly of good food<3
This Cheddars has great service and a great kitchen! I’ve eaten here several times and it’s been consistently good. The steaks are cooked perfectly and food is presented with care. The bar is well run with friendly bar tenders and has top shelf drinks for a very reasonable price!
Color us impressed! Lol. My sister and I went for lunch and had quick and friendly service and great food. Due to an appetizer on top of my meal, I will also have great leftovers. I got the steak and ribs with a baked potato and coleslaw and it was all perfect. I have had Cheddar's before but definitely recommend this location. Enjoy!
The family pack of chicken tenders and broccoli and rice casserole is the best! It was ready on time!

Open on Sunday the coldest, worst travel day weather wise, which was very much appreciated!! Our server was great!! They were not busy and happy to have e us come in!! Drinks were good, food was considerably better than the other location i have been to! It was just a good experience!!
Hostess was rude, didn’t communicate and avoided me when she forgot about us and seated another party that arrived well after we did. Wait staff was mediocre but I expected that so no problem. Food was not as good as I’ve had before, lots of errors (wrong dressing, wrong side, didn’t refill drinks) that being said; even when the food is not to par it’s still better than other places like chilies and Logan’s but it won’t be my first choice anymore.
There's nothing that really sets this location apart from other Cheddar's I've visited, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. The menu features a decent selection of "homemade" inspired dishes, and has a generous bar offering of both their signature drinks and what you'd expect from a national chain. What I appreciate most is the family-friendly atmosphere - not too quiet, not too loud, and no one seems to care when one or two of your kids get a lil' obnoxious.

Food was prepared good and served hot. We enjoyed our meal. Or server was attentive, but not annoying. The restaurant was clean, comfortable, and quiet.

i love cheddars but, me and my friends went last night after placing a reservation days in advance. they said they couldnt seat us because they had other big parties. i don't understand why they would seat them or call us and let us know beforehand. you should not be accepting reservations if you cant hold them. this is very unprofessional and unfair. get it right cheddars.
So my girl ordered a salmon salad and I ordered 6oz steaks and ribs (I upgraded my steak to 8 oz) the size of the salmon is decent but the amount of salad is unreal.. oh well, I think she liked it overall. Steak was okay. It was nicely cooked as I said medium. Not bad.. ribs had some problem.. they were chewy and very strongly attached to the bones.. quite disappointed that this is Texas level of ribs.. I know you guys probably don't focus much on ribs or steak itself but I would like to see more improvement next time..

Wanted a good beer but all they had were "Bud" products. So had tea instead. Won't be back.
SERVICE WAS POOR!!! First of all, it took FOREVER for someone to come take our order (we waited for at least 30 mins before someone finally came). Also, the food was TERRIBLE and my partner's burge…
This place has really gone downhill. We waited a very long time before the maitre d' showed up. You could barely understand the waitress. The order was messed up. The quality of the food was just a…
Food in the past was delicious. Today I ordered my favorite grilled salmon, broccoli, loaded baked potato. The salmon was dry and tough. The broccoli was tasteless and the potato was barely lukewarm. The rice, which used to have a butter taste, was blah!
