Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen

Very nice GF dining. Enjoyed the half rack of ribs one night and the pecan chicken salad another. I am a celiac and had no reactions. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Gluten free items are marked. No dedicated fryer for fries however. Still enjoyed my meal and would go back and recommend it. Nice bar drinks, too.

Food was good. No reaction. Waitress stated she would inform the cooks about my celiac.

I ordered off the gluten free menu received my food and new instantly it wasn’t right. Upon asking It was prepared with soy sauce and unfortunately I had a very bad reaction. Disappointed that they advertise food that is not safe on the gluten free menu.

Celiac friendly?

No

I enjoyed a great meal with the family. The inability to order a house salad that was gluten-free and dairy-free is the only reason I rated them down at 3-stars. With such a large gluten-friendly menu, ordering a plain house salad without croutons, cheese or eggs should be within the realm of possibility.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They have a dedicated GF menu. Fries are cooked separately. I always bring my own bun due to being gluten, dairy, egg and soy free. Enjoyed dinner out with family.

Gluten friendly menu with quite a few options. Separate frier for the french fries. I recommend Cheddar’s for kids and adults.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

They have a full gluten free menu and lots of options. Kid friendly and large portions!

Waitress not only didn't have knowledge of gluten allergy, she was annoyed I had so many questions about the food. Never told me rice was coming with fish, which I had to turn back. It tasted like a salt stick! Gave this place a second try due to new GF menu. Writing to headquarters to tell them to train their people regarding allergies. No sense in having a GF menu if the staff doesn't care.

Revised gluten free menu! Best part is the fries are GF!

I ordered off the “gluten sensitive” menu, and I told them it was an allergy. The waitress tried to suggest French fries and I informed her that her establishment’s fryers are shared and cross contamination is an issue for me. An hour after we left the restaurant I got very sick.

My Chicken Pecan Salad was so-so. The chicken had a section that was rubber and once I got that I was done. It was a fairly small, disappointing salad. The pecans were too sweet so I pushed them aside. The Honey Mustard dressing has horseradish in it so I had to set that aside for personal preference. Overall disappointing.

I ordered the Key West chicken & shrimp. It comes with rice. My sides were carrots & broccoli. DO NOT eat the sauce that comes with it, not gluten free. I explained my needs to our server. She was attentive and I had no issues at all with my meal. GF items are marked and a list is available for allergens on their site.

I have eaten here multiple times without any issues. A gluten sensitive menu is available on request and staff seemed knowledgeable about the options. The burger options are “order without bun” which is disappointing, but the other options I’ve tried (salmon, chicken without bourbon glaze, and pecan chicken salad) have been really good.
