Reviews for Cheddar Jackson in Richmond, VA
The food and experience is always comforting, delicious, hot and pleasant setting. I'm not sure if the guy that's always at the... bar is the owner but I love his consistency and the employees of this establishment. The crab bisque was the best in RVA Read more
Grilled cheese is a hard thing to sell...not like everyone can't do it. So I tempered my expectations even though there has been... a lot of hype here but I think I should've lowered them even more. I thought the food choices lacked creativity, again whenyou're making Grilled cheese it needs to be spectacular. The Grilled cheese specifc restaurants I've frequented normally have amore varied menu than 5 or 6 sandwiches that anyone could make themselves. The sandwich I had was the pizza version and it wasok. Again this is something anyone could have easily made themselves and I make just as good marinara at home. Oh and I didn'teven get to the fact that I ordered soup and my delivery order never came with it. Read more
Good Afternoon! Came by Cheddar Jackson for lunch. I ordered a Smoked Robinson, and my partner had a Fat Boy Basquiat. They... serve Boylan Soda Products, and Mexican Coca Cola as well. The Smoked Robinson had Gouda and Country Ham, it was lighter on thestomach than the Roast Beef and Cheese of the Basquiat. I didn?t taste much of the Hot Honey Dijon sauce on the Smoked Robinson.The Fat Boy Basquiat was very good we opted to get it with red onion as well which gave it a bit more flavor with the RoastBeef, Cheese, and Horse Radish Sauce. My favorite part was the way the bread was handled, it wasn?t over saturated in garlicbutter or a version of Texas toast. It was slightly brushed buttered and placed in a panini press. With our orders we also gotpasta salad, a blueberry muffin, and a chocolate chip cookie. All of which were good and a nice treat. Now the part of thisexperience that wasn?t so pleasant, was the wait and the music. The store has a vibe of a retro diner with a modern twist, butthere is very limited seating. The music coming right out over customers is Reggae, but not just any Reggae like some prettyvulgar stuff. Which is fine in your own time, but when you are waiting for food, hearing a song about personal interaction withfemale genitalia doesn?t help with a person?s appetite. No where in the entirety of the store do I see island inspired or in themenu. Bless the chef?s heart, because you can tell she puts love in every sandwich but the speed of the kitchen is on islandtime. The sense of urgency isn?t there until your order is literally the only thing left. Read more
Visiting family in the Richmond area recently and after a day of museums and sights, we found an incredible meal at Cheddar... Jackson. The Duval Sisters grilled cheese with the tomato soup dip was one of the best grilled cheese sandwiches I have hadanywhere in the world - and I have been to all 7 continents so that is saying something. The tomato soup was superb - plus itwas vegan. Everyone enjoyed their meal as well as the cookies. There is a wonderful selection of food for everyone includingthose who eat vegetarian and vegan. We chatted with the owner and learned about who he named each of the sandwiches for andwhy. Highly recommend. There is limited seating available but take out is an option. Thanks for the great memory and meal. Read more
Great sandwiches and service! We really appreciated that they had several quality vegetarian and vegan options! Ours were... delicious, but don't make the same mistake I did - I did not opt for soup to dip my sandwich in. My wife did, and that wasdefinitely the right call. Read more
I stopped here on a food break during a road trip & wasn?t expecting to be as satisfied as I was!! The sandwiches are actually... quite large and extremely tasty + the shrimp pasta salad was fresh and equally delicious. The staff was also super friendly. Iwill definitely visit this business again when I?m in the Richmond area! Read more
We ordered takeout from Cheddar Jackson on a rainy evening, and it hit the spot! We both split the Spicy Thai Chili Turkey and... Smoked Robinson, which were perfection. The flavor and density of the sandwiches are amazing, and I'll be back! Read more
Phenomenal food, Phenomenal staff, Phenomenal atmosphere. Wonderful vegan options and the owner was so knowledgeable about... what's vegan and what isn't. I had such a lovely time conversing with the staff. I cannot recommend this place enough! Read more
