If you’re anywhere near Port St. Lucie and craving a place that delivers comfort, flavor, and consistency, Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen absolutely hits the mark.
From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels relaxed and welcoming, perfect for unwinding after a long day or catching up with friends. The food lives up to the name Scratch Kitchen: hearty, well-prepared, and made with care.
Everything comes out hot, fresh, and satisfying, the kind of meal that reminds you why Cheddar’s is a go-to favorite.
Now let’s talk about the real star of the show… the Painkiller
This drink is dangerously delicious. Smooth, tropical, and perfectly balanced, it goes down way too easy. The coconut and pineapple flavors are refreshing without being overpowering, and the rum is blended so well that you almost forget how strong it actually is—almost. You’ll definitely need one, but fair warning… you’re absolutely going to want two. It’s that good.
Whether you’re there for dinner, happy hour, or just stopping by the bar, Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen in Port St. Lucie delivers a consistently great experience. Fantastic food, friendly service, and a Painkiller that lives up to its name, in the best possible way.
Highly recommended… just pace yourself on that second Painkiller

We celebrated a special friend’s birthday at this restaurant and had an amazing experience! The atmosphere was warm and inviting, setting the tone for a wonderful evening. The food was absolutely excellent.
But what truly made the night stand out was our server, Cameron. She was top-notch, providing attentive and personalized service that made us feel right at home. She checked in on us frequently to ensure everything was perfect.
Overall, we had a fantastic time and can’t wait to come back! If you’re looking for a great atmosphere, delicious food, and exceptional service, look no further. Cameron and the team made our birthday dinner truly unforgettable.

Never been to a Cheddar’s so this was a first for me. Let me just talk about the croissant they bring out… OMG. It tops every place that brings out bread. It was so flaky and perfectly made… just wow.
My daughter wanted cheese fries as a side with her pot pie but I think the server misunderstood because she brought a HUGE serving (shareable appetizer) out instead. It wasn’t a big deal. We enjoyed them anyways. Her pot pie was also perfectly backed with a flaky top and my Cajun bowl was simply amazing. The flavor combination was perfect!
Portions were large enough we both had leftovers.
Staff was friendly and atmosphere was casual. Perfect spot to grab a bite!!

I had a fantastic lunch at Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen! The barbecue ribs were smoky and tender, the crispy chicken tenders were cooked to perfection, and the sides— French fries and a loaded baked potato with cheese and sour cream—were comforting and delicious. To top it off, the refreshing strawberry lemonade added the perfect sweet and tangy touch to the meal. Great food, generous portions, and an inviting atmosphere made it a wonderful lunch experience!

If I could give 0 stars I would. To begin it was our servers first day. His trainer was not there to help him. He clearly was lost. The food takes about 45 minutes to come out and when it does my order is completely wrong. I don’t eat it because I figured they would want to send it back to the kitchen. Our server NEVER comes back to check on our food until my boyfriend has to hunt them down. Finally the second half of my meal comes out 30 minutes later and the steak is raw like still alive. Our server (the trainer) was too invested in the 10 top she got than us. Mind you they were just drinking and eating appetizers. This table came in after us and ate and left BEFORE WE DID. AND THERE WAS JUST TWO OF US. This was genuinely the worst service I have ever had and I do not complain like this I swear I am a server myself. We sat at our table for over TWO hours. Cherry on top is when I left I saw the trainer and the server outside vaping!

For a scratch kitchen we had big hopes. The bread to start was fantastic! The rest of the food unfortunately was a disappointment. We had a table of six and I think the food took about 30 to 45 minutes. I didn’t really time it, but it was quite a wait. We had two salmon and shrimp dishes at our table and Both tasted OK but definitely we’re not hot. The vegetables were cold and I’ll be completely honest with the baked potato being disgusting looking. It was so black that it just almost was on appealing to eat. We ordered one burger, medium rare, which came out well done And the rest of the food on the table was mediocre at best. We didn’t send anything back as our server was very busy and ran by the table to make sure everything was OK and then continued on. As we had children, we could not wait for any re-cooks anyway. Unfortunately, we didn’t love it as much as we had hoped.

Nice ambiance and an overall pretty clean restaurant. The food is average at best, which was slightly disappointing. The fries were pretty good. The country fried steak had good taste but was ridiculously over battered, and the loaded baked potato was very underwhelming. However, what stood out to me was the friendliness and service of the staff. Fantastic customer service from the bartender and hostesses.

I had to come here to repost how good this place was, the corn was delicious but wish the portion was bigger or at least available in like pint size? Thats how good… Ribs were meaty and not fatty, chicken fingers tasted made from scratch like the name… I’m impressed and will be ordering again for sure.

Usually, we have a very nice time at this restaurant, but I’ve noticed it’s kind of dingy. The front doors need to be cleaned EVERYDAY. The hostess stands staring at the front doors, clean them!! Also, we ate at the bar and Alexis was very nice, but she left our dirty plates till we left. My friend and I have both been waitresses in the past and I can’t imagine leaving dirty plates on the table while people are sitting there. By the way, the restaurant was mostly empty. The bar had one other patron. Finally, I ordered chicken pot pie for lunch. The crust was burnt and the inside was runny. Not at all what I expected as it usually is amazing. I probably should give 1 values but I hate to be mean.
