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!

Cold Brew Iced Coffee and a pathetic take on the Caramel Royale Macchiato but the drink was cold and there was no whip
Rae Ann D.

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.

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.

Loaded Mashed Potatoes**
Denise J.

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.

Miso salmon. Thai chicken lettuce entre. Beets salad. Chicken taquitos. Chicken penene.

Love the food here. We always try to get a get outside (but inside is also nice). Wait is always the worst though, so make sure to always have a reservation. We got the following in the first pic: Beets salad. Thai chicken lettuce wraps. Chicken taquitos. Stuffed mushrooms. Sweet shrimp. Fish tacos. And the following in the second: Miso salmon. Thai chicken lettuce entre. Beets salad. Chicken taquitos. Chicken penene. The beets salad is my family's favorite.

We got this message yet they sat three different families who never got called.

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.

Lemon raspberry cheesecake
Janelle O.

Just a beautiful and wonderful restaurant and experience . Just wanted to make a quick shout out that Max our server this evening was just incredible . He answered all of my questions, made all sorts of accommodations , and was just an overall joy to have serve us . Slice of cheesecake was delicious so I had to take a picture .

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!

Free Cheesecake Slice for your Birthday! Make sure to sign up for the rewards program!
Whitney I.

We love going to the Cheesecake Factory for a date! Sign up for the rewards program to get a FREE slice of cheesecake for your birthday! Lunch special is every day, not just the weekday, so take advantage of that on the weekends! Service is always amazing for a chain restaurant. Highly recommend to anyone!

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.

I was in the mood for something sweet cheesecake, factory, never disappoints. So many great options. Service is fast. Even though this places is always bombed. Got a delicious slice of mango Keylime, cheesecake. And a slice of carrot cake to go.

Four Cheese Pasta

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.

Peach lemonade
Tameka L.

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.

We ordered one kids' meal, two adult meals, and a margarita, and our total was under $60. It's hard to beat that these days! Our waiter was fantastic. I wish I could remember his name because he deserves a shoutout. He was friendly, patient, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. Place was also clean and not super loud like some other restaurants. Great food, great service, and great value. I can't wait to come back!
