Service was slow, but friendly enough to pass. The chicken strips, corn & mashed potatoes were great, but not the gravy. I would prefer a country cream gravy or sausage gravy vs the brown mushroom gravy that is served with this dish. The complimentary breads are always good, as is the atmosphere.

Always bustling with people coming in and out - so would definitely recommend making a reservation, so you're not stuck waiting for a long time. Had to get the classics like Pasta da Vinci and Louisiana Chicken Pasta - but honestly can't go wrong with any of their many menu options (even the Skinnylicious)!

Caesar salad and bee sting flatbread
Stephanie G.

It's really got something for everyone for a meal and for cheesecake. I have been a couple of times for lunch, of which of course they have their own pretty thorough items for that midday hit. Parking here always seems pretty crowded, but if you're avoiding the most peak times, you can find something nearby. The service is pretty good (until the end waiting for the check) and the bread, like everything else, has some variety for every palate. You should pay attention to the calorie count, especially if you want to also indulge in cheesecake because some of the dishes are doozies. The lemon shrimp over angel hair is a great and filling Skinnylicious meal. The salad/flatbread combo is enough to split into two meals (eat the salad and some flatbread, then take the rest to go). The bee sting flatbread features all the meats with a little honey sweetness. That's to say nothing about the cheesecakes. The seasonal Peach Perfect really lived up to its name, and the Tiramisu is sweet and unique and also on the lower calorie side. You can't go wrong with any of them though. There's a reason the Cheesecake Factory remains popular. Everyone can find something for them.

Garden Salad $11.95 + $2.50 for extra tomato!
Stefan H.

I can't remember the last time I visited this location, if ever. Arrived with my friend shortly after 12:00 noon. We approached the hostess station with the hostess standing there alone, who completely ignored us! We had to ask to be seated. The hostess grabbed some menus and walked us down to the far end of the bar without saying a word. She gave us our menus and then walked back to the hostess station without a word having been said. The restaurant was basically empty. With no one around, after 10 minutes our server finally showed up. He had the energy of a deflated balloon! While he said the right words, there was nothing behind them. We placed our order and after what seemed to be a reasonable amount of time, someone else brought our lunch. We never saw our server again until he brought us the check. No one inquired if our meals were okay, if we needed anything after we were served, or if we wanted a refill on our $4.95 + tax & tip weak iced teas! My companion had asked for no croutons and extra tomatoes in her garden salad. While there was no credit for the lack of croutons, there was a $2.50 additional charge for what looked to be one and a half sliced Campari tomatoes added to the salad! My lettuce wrap tacos were nicely assembled and fine, but I certainly wasn't protein overloaded with maybe an ounce of chicken in each taco! Overall, the food was fine, although I believe the extra 20% charge for 1 1/2 Campari tomatoes, and the $12.70 final cost of 2 glasses of weak iced tea was out of line. Add to that, the poor service and makes for a memorable and unpleasant experience. I'm not running back!

Deliiiiiii chicken
Diana A.

Today I tried an impressive honey-truffled chicken, accompanied by delicious, a flavorful home style mashed potatoes, and some crispy asparagus. The noise was lower than usual today because it was a Tuesday; my server provided excellent service. The food was delicious. I brought home a wonderful mango cheesecake to share with my husband. I'll devour it in a few minutes with coffee. The place was super clean, and the bill came to $44.14 dlls including their usual bread & butter ... oh, and a Diet Coke. ( plus tips). Keep up the excellent work with delicious seasoning, excellent customer service, and perfectly prepared dishes. God bless you, and a big hug and congratulations to the entire Cheesecake Factory team.

The food was delicious. Our waiter we had was really nice and helpful. The food as usual was good, and pretty light. The low stars has nothing to do with my server or the food, but rather a different server who at the time, was standing in the corner, literally doing nothing. The only thing that was a little annoying was we had asked a server who was chilling in the corner for a high chair, had a bit of an attitude, but said sure, stood around for a few seconds and then walked away and didn't show up. Just straight ignored the request and pretty much went into hiding and only showed up after she had a table AFTER we got our food. I had to wait for a different server to come and asked them instead. (It ended up being our server). Typically I wouldn't mind, but it wasn't anything unreasonable and you had NO Tables. You just stood in the corner and did nothing. You could have said, let me see if someone could get one for you, asked the host, anyone, other than ignore us and disappear and make us wait longer to ask someone else who showed up a little later.

Cheesecake Factory (Located inside Riverside Square Mall) 390 Hackensack Ave Hackensack, NJ 07601 Oreo Dream Extreme Cheesecake It was a spectacular visit at this chain restaurant that specializes in over 100 cheesecakes. As soon as I entered the restaurant, Maître d' Anthony greeted me and he escorted me to my seating area. I felt right at home. Although I wanted to try many cakes, Server Felix recommend one of the most popular dessert choices. It definitely wasn't a dream when I came across this masterpiece of a dessert. It was so beautifully handcrafted that I could have stared at it all night! The Oreo cookie can be visibly seen inside the cheesecake filling. The crushed cookie pieces, chocolate crust and chocolate morsels added a nice crunch. The large cookie is perfect way to top this dessert (no pun intended). There is only one critique about my experience; the culinary crew needs to add one more dessert option: a cheesecake flight. Imagine being served three or four magnificent cakes on a narrow size tray. I strongly believe this will be a popular menu seller because you'll get the best of multiple worlds. Overall, this was a flawless experience and I was highly satisfied with my dessert and service. #cheesecake #cheesecakefactory #oreocheesecake #riversidesquaremall #foodreview #njfoodie

Complimentary bread & butter
Kate Y.

This was my first time here, and I had a great experience. My server was very nice and attentive. The space is huge and clean. The food was delicious! I came on a Saturday around 3-4pm to avoid the crowds - mission accomplished! I ordered: - Crispy Brussels Sprouts: 10/10! These were crispy and flavorful with a hint of sweetness. - Cuban Sandwich: 10/10! The ingredients were fresh, and the bread kept it all together. Came with a side of fries. - Truffle-Honey Chicken: 10/10! I heard a co-worker raving about this, so I gave it a try. Goodness - this was so yummy! You get a generous portion of 2 pieces on top of mashed potatoes, and some asparagus. Of course, I left room for dessert... - Chocolate Caramelicious Cheesecake Made with Snickers®: yup, 10/10! - Coconut Cream Pie Cheesecake: this was THE STAR of the show - absolutely divine! Highly recommend!

not sure about the low ratings. but i went yesterday for a girls night and it was great. our waiter was great, always coming over to check on the table and ask if we needed anything. the staff would periodically come around to clean any empty plates and glasses from our table. great service. the food was good. i had a sandwich and it came with a soup and a salad. of course i finished it off with the godiva chocolate cheesecake. theres always room for cheesecake. i also had a raspberry lemon drop and it was good. i recommend stopping by. the menu also has alot to offer, so many choices.

Meatball sliders
Crystal L.

I actually enjoyed my experience here. I do find the menu a bit overwhelming since there's just soooooooo much to choose from. But I thought the food was decent, not omg delicious but good. We ordered the meatball sliders, chicken Parm pizza, and da vinci pasta. I got the raspberry white chocolate truffle cheesecake and it was amazing!! I totally would go there just to try all the cheesecake flavors

Dessert. Pumpkin cheesecake and a cappuccino
Elizabeth A.

Come here all the time & it never disappoints. This specific location is attached to the mall. How can a place possibly have SO MUCH on their menu and execute everything so well, every time? Servers are always friendly and attentive. My favorite of all time are the avocado egg rolls but this time I opted for the sampler. Was delicious and came with 4 dipping sauces. My husband had the smokehouse bbq burger. To end, we had to have the pumpkin cheesecake and I enjoyed it with a cappuccino.

Louisiana pasta
Mel T.

*HAPPY HOUR REVIEW* Decided to stop by on a Wednesday at around 5 (HH is until 6 at the bar area) to take advantage of the HH food specials. There weren't that many people at that time and it didn't really fill up much for the rest of happy hour. We ordered a bunch of apps to share, and it wasn't very good. We had: -Thai Chili Shrimp (Crispy Shrimp Tossed with Spicy Aioli) - this wasn't bad. The spicy aioli was pretty good. -Buffalo Blasts (Chicken, Cheese and Our Spicy Buffalo Sauce all Stuffed in a Spiced Wrapper and Fried until Crisp) - this was the worst one. We didn't realize that the wonton wrapper would be battered, so it was very heavy and oily. We ended up peeling off the wrapper and eating the filling but the filling wasn't any better. -Housemade Meatballs (Certified Angus Beef®, Italian Sausage and Parmesan, Tomato Sauce and Whipped Ricotta) - this was the best one. It's a safe app to go with. -Crispy Brussels Sprouts (Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Crispy Leaves Tossed with Bacon and Vermont Maple-Butter Glaze) - flavorful but oily If you plan to go for the happy hour apps, I would recommend sticking to basics. Perhaps the burger, sliders, or beet and avocado salad are safe bets. Pretty much everything else on the menu is fried.

Macaroni & Cheese
Katie R.

Very busy on a weekend afternoon but we were still seated immediately. Friendly and helpful service. Everything was delicious. A very large menu with tons of options. All food is hot, fresh, and high quality. A great spot for special occasions or a dessert date.

All hail the sesame seed bun! It's been my humble opinion that the seeded bun is an integral part…read moreof a good burger, and Marty's has that - and more - going for it. I've heard comparisons between Marty's patties and those of Five Guys, and I can see why. They're fresh rather than frozen, and they're thin enough to approximate a smashed burger with those occasional bits of char while still maintaining enough heft that you can taste the beef. Their build-your-own burger menus are also similar, with plenty of free toppings to choose from. But I would argue that Marty's offers a fuller range of toppings from diverse cheese options to more premium ones like fried eggs, bacon, and avocado. I tried two of their signature burgers, and while the Swiss mushroom dijon was a hit with my husband (he pointed out the visible mustard seeds in the dijon sauce), the bacon avocado was the clear winner in my book. It not only had bacon that was texturally perfect (crispy and densely packed atop the patty), but also picture-ready slices of avocado. For that to come out of a fast food restaurant kitchen within a matter of minutes? Color me impressed. The banana pudding is dynamite. I'm usually neither a fan of banana nor puddings because those things combined just sound like mush. But here, the pudding is more of a whipped, airy texture, and I believe it when the lid says 'made fresh' because there were chunks of banana nestled in every bite. I admit it might not be much to look at, but I was hooked after a single spoonful (I'm actually greedily scraping the bottom of the container as I type this review). The restaurant has a diminutive dining space (I counted four two-tops at most), but it feels super cozy and casual. I took my food to go and found nothing had deteriorated - in flavor, temperature, or texture - during my drive home because everything is well packaged. There's paid street parking available, but this area of Hackensack is pretty dense so you might have to circle around for a bit before finding a spot.

The fries were nice and I enjoyed them both but I think I liked the Truffle Parmesan more--I'm a sucker for all things truffle. The poutine was surprisingly good too though. I wish the gravy were a little thicker but it was hot enough that it caused the cheese curds to get nice and melty. I'll definitely be back to try some of their other offerings.
