CHEDDAR'S SCRATCH KITCHEN #2197 – Restaurant

Westwood Boulevard on the International Drive corridor, sitting between Aquatica and the Orange County Convention Center, which makes this Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen a natural theme-park-day landing spot. The kitchen preps from scratch: honey butter croissants, Santa Fe spinach dip, Cheddar's queso fries, Wisconsin cheese bites, hand-breaded chicken tenders. Sandwiches cover a smokehouse burger and Philly cheesesteak. Mains stretch from homemade chicken pot pie and country fried steak to baby back ribs, top sirloin, grilled shrimp alfredo and Key West chicken and shrimp. Hand-crafted lemonades, and a Painkiller capped at two per guest. Doors open at eleven. Big plates, small damage.
