New Centerville restaurant to hire up to 200 starting today

The new Cheddar's Scratch Kitchen in the Cornerstone of Centerville development is accepting applications on-site today and in the weekdays ahead in order to hire 175 to 200 people, including 100 to 110 servers, for a projected opening in mid-to-late June, a spokeswoman for the restaurant said today.

Those interested can apply in person at the restaurant at 5341 Cornerstone North Blvd. near Wilmington Pike and Feedwire Road from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, or can apply online at the franchisee's web site, www.greercompanies.com.

The 8,640-square-foot, 356-seat restaurant adjacent to Costco Wholesale in the Cornerstone development is the first Dayton-area location for the Kentucky-based Cheddar’s, which operates 44 restaurants in Kentucky, Indiana, Tennessee, West Virginia, Virginia and North Carolina and Ohio.

Cheddar’s is a casual-dining restaurant, open for lunch and dinner, with a menu that offers smoked BBQ ribs, grilled salmon, chicken tenders, country-style fried chicken, salads and sandwiches.

“If you’re someone who wants to work in a high-volume restaurant with flexible scheduling, Cheddar’s may be the place for you,” a spokeswoman said in a Greer Companies release. “If you’re friendly and outgoing, then come apply to be a server at Cheddar’s. If you enjoy greeting people and making them feel at home, then apply for a host position. If you have a passion for cooking, you’ll love working in Cheddar’s Scratch Kitchen, where you’ll be preparing meals with wholesome, fresh ingredients.”

A Bagger Dave’s Burger Tavern, Chick-fil-A and Domino’s Pizza shop have already opened at the Cornerstone of Centerville site. A Kroger store is under construction, and a Cabela’s outdoor store recently opened at the multi-use development.
