Cheddar’s Casual Café recently opened their doors to a second Orlando location near UCF. Texas-based Cheddar’s has repeatedly garnered No. 1 ratings from Zagat, Consumer Reports and Nation’s Restaurant News for food quality, customer experience, value and atmosphere. Hello scratch kitchen.
Spork is getting a taste of Cheddar’s, we’ll be sure to share our menu picks and more soon. In the meantime here’s a bit about one of Orlando’s newest restaurants.
“More than 90 percent of the food we serve at Cheddar’s is handmade from scratch, using fresh ingredients that arrive daily to a kitchen twice the size of the average restaurant kitchen, with up to three times the average number of cooks,” said Cheddar’s Vice President of Culinary Robert Pesch.
In each restaurant, dozens of culinary team members prepare Cheddar’s dishes by hand using the company’s exclusive recipes. The menu offers a wide variety of delicious selections including steaks seasoned with a special blend of herbs, ribs slow-smoked for four hours in-house, hand-cut seafood, crisp salads, generous pastas, classic burgers, chicken and more.
True to their Texas roots, the designer-quality interior and exterior features real copper awnings, Austin chalk stone from a Texas quarry, solid cherry and walnut butcher-block table tops, cedar millwork and a granite bar top.
Cheddar’s is dedicated to bring people back to the table to reconnect over a meal. Now through December 7 guests are invited to share a holiday meal memory about someone they’re missing this season! Three winners will receive a reunion prize package with a $1,000 Visa gift card and a $250 Cheddar’s gift card. Click here to share your story.
