The Cheesecake Factory

I would give them 5 stars but I just feel they are way OVER PRICED!! We came in to get cheesecake and there was a wait so we got it to go. It was my bday and my husband paid $30 and changed for 3 pieces of cheesecake ???? that's outrageous. Parking: Parking is terrible you should valet

We walked in and sat at the bar tables, which is first come first serve seating, whicg feels a little predatory, but we'd forgotten to call ahead. I wasn't wowed by the margarita but they had a really delicious drink on the special menu that was fantastic.... it had a flower in it and a coconut rim. The service was great - just the right amount of attentive considering how busy the place was, but they forgot to bring us silverware ???? Everything we had was delicious, which I always feel is challenging with such a large menu of varied items. I ordered a filet and they absolutely nailed the medium rare. It was crusty & caramelized on the outside and perfectly pink inside. I didn't need a knife to cut it, it was so buttery and tender. I was quite surprised and next time the only change I'll make will be to make a reservation!

I don't come to cheesecake factory very often, but I did enjoy our time there. I could tell they were very low staffed as they could only fill about 1/2 the tables, but they were doing their best none the less. Food was tasty and of course the cheesecake was sublime.
