Cheddar's Casual Cafe

You know what the saddest thing to see on a sit down restaurant menu is?

"All burgers served medium well."

Those five words make my heart sad and Cheddar's has that on their menu.

Also, with a name like Cheddar's, I expected cheese to play a more dominant role on the menu. Sadly, the only cheese on the menu was the stuff that came on top of burgers or sammuches.

I liked the decor of this place, but it had a distinct Mediterranean feel to the design, and I was eating American comfort food. Confuse!

With all my bitching, the reason this place gets 3 stars is because, even though my burger was served medium well, it was still really good, as were my fries. I'm convinced that if I had been allowed to get it medium rare, as I like it, my eyes would have rolled back into my head from meat joy.

Our server was also a real sweetheart and she was attentive without being overbearing.

Funny sidenote: It was a busy night and we were waiting and the time estimate that the host gave everyone who walked in the door was "21-26 minutes." I rather liked the arbitrary choice of numbers for the wait time.

Server was nice and restaurant was cozy. Alcoholic drinks were fairly priced. Sides were good but the steak and ribs weren't that great. Chicken tenders were delicious.

Only thing I had to eat that day was their Fish Taco.  Woke up at 230A with Food Poisoning.  I would stay away from the FIsh Taco.  Everyone else seemed ok with what they ate.
