We came here for brunch and were actually surprised it wasn't that busy. Usually there's a wait that can go over an hour, so we've sat at the bar before since it's first come first served. This time we were greeted and seated pretty quickly and decided to grab a booth, which was a nice change. Our server was friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience feel easy and enjoyable. For food, we tried the chilaquiles verdes with chicken and eggs. I usually order my eggs over medium, and they came out just right, which I appreciated. We also ordered the steak and eggs, which were solid, and the French toast. I have to say, the French toast is more on the dessert side. It's fluffy, buttery, and really good. Definitely something to share or go for if you're craving something sweet. The orange juice is freshly squeezed, and you can absolutely taste the difference. So refreshing and worth ordering. Overall, we really enjoyed our brunch here. It was a great experience from start to finish and definitely a spot I'd come back to. read more

My latest visit to The Cheesecake Factory was terrible. The service was so bad that we didn't even stay for dessert. Our waitress, Kelly, was friendly but seemed incredibly rushed--she even slammed a cold glass onto our table. Throughout our visit, our table was completely neglected. We had to repeatedly flag her down, and other servers noticed and had to come assist us. It made the entire ambiance feel frantic. To make matters worse, Kelly got my daughter's order wrong. Another waiter noticed the mistake and corrected it, but we had to wait an extra 15 minutes for the food, meaning we couldn't enjoy our meal at the same time. After waiting 20 minutes for our order initially, we finished our bread and butter and placed our plates at the end of the table for easy pickup. Kelly walked right by quickly and missed our cues the first and second time. By then, my daughter and I had had just about enough. When Kelly finally returned and asked if we wanted dessert, we told her no and asked for the check, a box, and a bag to go. We waited another 15 minutes. She brought the box but forgot the bag and quickly left. We had to flag her down again to ask for the bag. When she returned, one bag flew off the table; she picked it up, crumpled it, and abruptly grabbed my plate saying she would box it. I prefer to pack my own food, but she just walked off and returned with the bag. I paid the bill and left with my daughter. We usually look forward to seeing Andrew here, who always provides excellent, 5-star service that makes us want to stay for cheesecake. Today was the exact opposite. Please do better. read more

Came here for lunch. We were seated right away which I appreciated. The server was very nice and helpful. I got a calamari to start and strawberry margarita to drink. Picked the shepherd's pie for an entree and got the mango coconut cheesecake for dessert. Calamari- Served hot and crisp with a chewy interior. I really enjoyed the garlic aioli that came with it. Strawberry Margarita- It was sweet and the strawberry flavor was strong. It does feel like there was barely any alcohol in it though. It was more like juice. Shepherds Pie- I barely touched this. It was very bland from the meat base to the mashed potato topping. I ended up taking it home and adding seasoning to it. Mango Coconut Cheesecake- This was delightful! The mango flavor is creamy and sweet and the coconut cookie crust paired well with the cheesecake base. This was my favorite part of the meal. Decent experience but my entree being terrible stuck with me. read more

We had a party of eight celebrating a birthday. We were seated really quickly, and they had the table set up very nicely. Love their large menu there's so many things to choose from. Our waitress was very attentive and took a care of us. The food and drinks were all delicious. We had leftovers and they packaged them for you. Fun place to eat and the food is good! read more

I ordered two coffees on the door dash that said they were ready at 11:45, we walked across from T-mobile but when we got there it took an additional 12 minutes to even get the drinks. The barista girl said I had to go over to the bar to get the cold brew iced coffee myself, I said I'll wait. Then they had not made the caramel royale macchiato was ready but it wasn't. The coffees were both over $6 each and one of them wasn't even right. The service was slow, and the manager standing right by was aloof to what was happening. I had to go back up to the girl barista to ask if the caramel royale macchiato was ready yet, and the other girl was just starting it. Sucks they can't even get two coffee beverages to-go right. Ambiance is morose and drab in this location, they need to renovate. The coffees were drinkable for sure though, just not good quality for what we paid for. read more

I HEARD THE PUMPKIN CHEESECAKE IS BACK, SO OBVIOUSLY I HAD TO GET MY ANNUAL SLICE! The Cheesecake Factory really said $14 for one slice now and honestly... worth every penny because I only need ONE a year, and this is my seasonal little tradition. I placed a to go order and even though there were a ton of people picking up orders, they were surprisingly quick! Everyone was super friendly, and my cheesecake was ready to go without any hassle. Pumpkin cheesecake season has officially arrived and I am HERE FOR IT! read more

My wife had never been to The Cheesecake Factory before, so we decided to make it a date night. We ordered the Shrimp Scampi Pasta, Filet Mignon, and Avocado Egg Rolls. The avocado egg rolls were as good as I remembered and were easily the best part of the meal. Unfortunately, everything else was disappointing. The Shrimp Scampi Pasta had almost no flavor. I had to add a lot of salt and pepper just to make it taste decent. The fried shrimp seemed like it had been fried twice, or maybe we were served an order that had been remade. It was oily, soggy, and definitely not crispy. The biggest letdown was the filet mignon. We always order our steaks medium rare, but this one came out overcooked. We mentioned it to our waitress, but after waiting so long for our food, we were too hungry to wait for another plate, so we decided to just eat it. A little later, our waitress came back and apologized. She told us the kitchen had accidentally given us the wrong order. At that point, we had already eaten most of the meal, so there wasn't much that could be done. Overall, this was a disappointing visit. I was excited to introduce my wife to THE CHEESECAKE FACTORY restaurants, but her first experience didn't leave a good impression. Hopefully this was just an off night, because this wasn't the quality I remember. read more

I went in today for lunch to order the viral TikTok Cajun Salmon. I ordered the lunch Cajun Salmon and instead of regular mash potatoes I upgraded to the loaded mash potatoes. Ask for the extra Cajun sauce on the side. Every morsel was delicious and I will definitely order this again. My server Kaitlyn was attentive and checked on me periodically. I couldn't eat my whole meal so Kaitlyn kindly packed up my leftovers for me. read more

Had lunch here 09/29/30. I was going there just to get cheesecake and decided to have lunch. It was after the lunch Rush and not very busy. We ordered the meatloaf with más potatoes and stringbeans. Tje meatloaf was really good. The stringbeans were hard and lacked flavor. We also ordered the parmignan encrusted chicken with garlic más potatoes and mac and cheese. It was good. Also ordered the ahí pone. It was okay. Very little tuna but an abundance of rice. If ordered maybe order with greens/salad. Overall. the experience was fair. Our server was great. Our order took a long time even the drinks. read more

I would leave zero stars if I could. But the staff at this place are absolutely disgusting!!!! Super disrespectful and honestly seems like they're racist. Came in on 10/10/26 at 1:30 they said 15 mins wait okay cool. But the legit called our name twice and let two white families cut. Ok whatever, right? Well the final straw was when the hostess the short white girl with black hair called our name and some white family was like oh not us but can we go. We went up she legit said oh they were here first. Like what the actual? I've never ever been to a place so unorganized and made me feel this type of way. And no managers on the floor? We ended up coming to panini and kabob. Staff super friendly. read more

My friends and I were craving cheesecake, so of course we ended up here lol. We ordered the Very Cherry Ghirardelli Chocolate Cheesecake, the Lemon Meringue Cheesecake, and Linda's Fudge Cake. Personally, the Very Cherry Ghirardelli Chocolate Cheesecake stole the show for me!! The combo of the cherries and chocolate was chef's kiss I wasn't the biggest fan of the nuts, but honestly I'd still order it again with zero regrets The Lemon Meringue Cheesecake was fun to try, but Linda's Fudge Cake definitely came in as my second favorite! read more

We came here and ordered the Chicken Alfredo, Chicken Marsala, and the bowtie pasta. The food itself was pretty good overall. The Chicken Marsala had good flavor, and I liked the sauce: I actually wanted more of it. The Chicken Alfredo was decent, but they gave us boiled chicken mixed inside instead of the traditional grilled chicken placed on top, which was disappointing. It changed the texture and just didn't feel like the usual presentation. The bowtie pasta was kind of strange: it tasted like a bunch of random ingredients thrown together, with big chunks of garlic, peas, and tomatoes. It almost tasted like a weird carbonara mix. Not bad, just confusing. The biggest issue was the service. Our server honestly seemed like she didn't care about us at all. She never asked how our food was, didn't refill our water, and was barely around. We had to eat most of the meal without parmesan cheese because she didn't bring it until we literally had three bites left. When I wanted extra Chicken Marsala sauce, she was nowhere to be found: and we later found out she was on her break, which she never mentioned. It just felt very inattentive and unprofessional. The ambiance was typical Cheesecake Factory: busy, dim lighting, standard vibe. Nothing special but what you'd expect. Overall, I'm giving it 3 stars because the food was solid, but the service really brought the experience down. If the service had matched the quality of the food, it would've easily been higher. read more

This might only be my second or third time at this CF location, but I have to say the food, quality and service or excellent as well as the comfortable seating. Our server was especially helpful and attentive and to a great job of taking care of us even correcting a minor omission on one of our menu items. Quality and consistency are what one comes to CF for as well as the huge variety on the menu as it still baffles me how they are able to make so many different menu items and do such a good job with them. It truly isamazing. What those chefs do back there in the kitchen. Managing several booster tables for customers is no easy task as well, so I certainly appreciate all the good work of our server and making an enjoyable dinner experience. read more

This location is so bad. Every time I've come here spanning years there is always an issue. From the host being disorganized and forgetting to see us, to forgetting things an hour to go order, to having me sit and wait God knows how much longer that I needed to for my other to go order. Why not call out my name when my order is ready, especially when I've already come in to check in so you know I am here. Incredibly frustrating visit every time. Update they also messed up my order for today... read more

I decided to join their rewards program . It doesn't operate on points. They just give rewards periodically. I received two in a month period. I missed one so decided to see if I could catch the next . The reward was for a slice of cake with any purchase . I decided to try the chocolate truffle cake and I purchased a peach lemonade drink to go with it. I ordered through the app. I was given a pickup time . When that time arrived I walked to the bakery counter.The cashier told me that she would prepare my drink . The lemonade was sweet and refreshing on my car ride it was a little under $6. The cake was decadent . It was large enough to cut into 3 pieces to share . It originally cost around $12.95 , but was free with rewards. read more

I always loved coming to this place. It used to be one of my favorite restaurants because of the bread they serve before your meal. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed during my last visit. The bread tasted completely different and was hard. It was one of the main reasons I kept coming back. That said, I can honestly say that was the only thing that disappointed me. The servers are always friendly, welcoming, and provide great service, and the kitchen staff consistently prepares delicious food. read more

Went in yesterday and ordered the macaroni and cheese balls for an appetizer and ordered drinks. The macaroni and cheese balls were cold and one of the drinks had no alcohol in it. Sent them both back. I ordered the green chili chicken enchiladas and they were terrible. Very mushy and after I got home I had a stomach ache for hours. My husband got a double bacon burger and there was so much ranch on the top bun it fell apart. It was literally dripping from the bun all over his plate. It was disgusting. We were done. I won't be back for a long time. read more

I made a reservation online. I needed it for 9 but the website only allowed up to 6. I called the Riverside location to update this and was told by Ava that even though I made a reservation, my party would have to sit and wait. What is the purpose of making a reservation? She then informed me that a 20% gratuity would be applied. We went to the restaurant and checked in. When my husband went to check on the table we were told again by Ava that we still need to wait since we added to the reservation. "That's how we do it here". I make the attempt to make sure we were all on time, but we still needed to wait. I cancelled and Ava made no attempt to address me or our concern. Need to do better Cheesecake Factory! read more

I was given a gift card from the holidays otherwise I have never been drawn to dining at Cheesecake Factory. Overall it was a good visit. Took a while to be greeted by waitress after being sat, but once ordered--food came quickly from kitchen. The beet and avocado was amazing--fresh and unique flavor with a sweet yogurt dressing. I also ordered the ahi poke nachos--not at all worth it. The amount of ahi on the order was minuscule and the tiny pieces that were there were about the size of my thumbnail. My son's mini burgers were outstanding. Their menu is huge so it's a good idea to review it before you go. read more

I love The Cheesecake Factory for its huge menu and ability to accommodate large groups, which makes it the perfect spot for meeting up with my girlfriends. I also appreciate that reservations can be made well in advance online--such a convenience. Every time we've dined here, we've stayed for hours, and the staff has always been patient and attentive without ever rushing us. Service has consistently been friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is upbeat and lively, making it a great choice for group gatherings. The complimentary bread is always a treat--especially the sourdough, which is my favorite. On this visit, I tried the Spinach and Cheese appetizer, which I'd rate about a 7/10. It was good, though I've had better versions elsewhere, I'd still order it again. My absolute favorite dish here, though, is the Korean Fried Chicken--highly recommended! read more

My husband and I have many day dates here. Also Cheesecake Factory is a tradition for our anniversary. We started coming to this location cuz the one in Rancho has disappointed us. It's been 5 years coming here. We love it. All of our waiters have been awesome. But this last time we visited we had a waitress named Cassey H. She was on point. Everything came out on time. And as soon as we were done with appetizer plates they were off our table quick. As soon as we put our cups at the edge for refills, like Houdini she would appear. I told my husband she has been the best waitress since we've been going there. But all of your waiters here have all been great. I apologize for not giving recognition before. Keep up the great service. read more

Cheesecake Factory was a date spot back in the day. It would be considered a fancy spot where one would dress up in high school or college. Maybe it was nostalgia that led us here...that and my daughter reading "cheesecake." We arrived right then they opened at 10 AM and quickly seated. Of course, with the vast menu, they gave us ample time to decide and it was quite difficult. The jambalaya and kimchi fried rice caught our attention. The kids, of course, went for a typical Butter pasta and grilled cheese. The kimchi fried rice...was not kimchi fried rice. If anything, it was an Americanized version or perhaps bibimbap is a better descriptor. The rice, grilled pork, kimchi and eggs were separated and required mixing. It wasn't bad...just not what was promised. The jambalaya was a bit too sweet for my liking. We also ordered the Basil tomato pasta which my daughter wolfed down. And of course, the cheesecake. We ended up ordering the salted caramel cheesecake and an apple crumble. Both overly sweet with loaded calories. Honestly, I think I prefer CPK over The Cheesecake Factory. Just my opinion though. read more

Im sure by now everyone knows this establishment. This location is big and beautiful. The bar area is gorgeous. Our food was delicious I got Mexican, my mom got the salmon and my partner got the steak . The menu can be overwhelming and make it harder to choose just one thing! Nonetheless, the food, drinks were great. The hostess were super friendly. Our waiter was rushing the entire time. I would say the wait staff needs to slow down and make sure they are not skipping over the customer service part. Our waiter barely asked if we needed anything, I kept having to find and ask him. Other than that, I probably will return. Can't beat there menu and desserts. read more

ordered: factory nachos w chicken, buffalo blast, louisiana chicken pasta, complimentary bread. omfg the brown bread is so gas, i'm going to learn how to make them nachos: honestly really good but SO filling, we were probably fine w just nachos and pasta or more bread i loved how the nachos are plated on a wide plate so the toppings were well dispersed buffalo blast: i'm personally not a fan of buffalo sauce but this might've been the best item we had. i would only get again if i ask for ranch pasta: i made this before knowing it was a dish at cheesecake factory therefore i am bias to my own recipe. however this was good, just needs a bit of salt overall: i think cheesecake factory has some decent finds, but the cheesecake is the real star. service was great too for how busy the restaurant was. it's next to the mall so this is a perfect stop for food and drinks. i love the ambiance of all cheesecake factories. read more

Made a reservation for 3:30 on NYE since all the later spots were taken fast! The traffic was really bad and we ended up arriving at 3:45 and they were still able to seat us fortunately. The service was really fast. We ordered French dip burger which was more like a cheesesteak style but very very good. It was oily, salty, and sweet, very filling. Also ordered bang bang chicken and shrimp which tasted super flavorful, sweet and curry like as well. We had three different servers during our time here which was unusual but the transition was seamless. We also used two gift cards, a credit card, and my rewards which made it kind of complicated but everything worked out and the servers were super knowledgeable. read more

1st time at Cheesecake Factory. Came in for drinks, appetizers and desert. Sat bar top. Server was great. Ordered drinks, the meatball sliders, mac & cheese balls, pineapple upside-down cheesecake and the celebration cheesecake. The meatball sliders were very good. The mac & cheeseballs were room temperature, not even warmed up a little bit. The cheesecakes. Horrible. These cheesecakes are so sweet & so SALTY that after only a couple if bites, I felt ill. read more

Friday night and we got there around 8:30pm thinking it wouldn't be so crowded but it was, with a 20-min wait. Our server was Andrew and he was friendly and energetic. We started with the bread with baked Brie and truffle honey. Tasty but probably not ordering again. I couldn't decide between the farfalle with chicken or the Italian sausage with rigatoni so I asked Andrew if they could do the farfalle with the sausage and they did! Loved it! My son had the steak Diane and the medallions were so tender, he said better than others that he's had. Ended the night with a slice of pineapple upside down cheesecake to go, my all-time favorite at Cheesecake Factory, which is saying a lot because I passed by the counter of cheesecakes and omg everything looked amazing. Beautifully decorated restaurant. Great service from Andrew, he was very attentive, you should be proud to have him on your team. read more

Stopped by for a slice of cheesecake only so I went in straight to the bakery area to order. There was a young girl prepping orders there who helped me. She was kind and helpful and even recommended the pineapple upside down cheesecake over the raspberry one so I chose her recommendation and it was delicious. I thought it would be a quick in and out experience but the one young lady was the only one working the area so I had to wait for her to take everyone in line order before she packaged my cheesecake slice. So if you are wanting a quick in and out experience order ahead online. read more
