The Cheesecake Factory

Just found out that we are getting both of these places locally - should I be thrilled?

So yesterday we went to the Newport Beach outpost of the Cheesecake Factory chain with my cranky 70-year-old MIL ("Broccoli Cheese Soup?! No, I don't want THAT, my stomach can't handle that, now I ...

It seems as though there's more negative exchange on this chain than any other & I just don't understand why. First, people complain of the wait & then they complain that the food sucks. If the f...

I have to say it: I was Christmas shopping today and stopped in at the CF for lunch. Had the Vietnamese Summer Rolls, and they were delicious! A perfect light lunch. Authentic? Probably not....

What's the word on Cheesecake Factory? The menu looks ginormous, which makes me a little leery right off the bat. Any rec's out there?

Wanted some input on the ribeye steak (is it bone-in), chicken and biscuits, ranch house burger. I am going there tonight and am considering ordering one of these.

PF Chang really grates on me more than the Cheesecake Factory. Mainly because I am Chinese and it pisses me off that this is what my friends and acquaintances think Chinese food is all about. Lie...

I know this is the Toronto/Ontario board, but I can't seem to find any other board to cover Buffalo NY, and I assume half the people eating at popular Buffalo spots on weekends are Ontarians. An...

So I'm already set against this place based on knowing a couple of the waiters there, but I'm being forced to go as a group outing... Are there any decent menu items that aren't 1. Substitu...

Has anyone tried Cheesecake Factory's French Toast? Or have a suggestion on a good brunch alternative (limited to Cheesecake Factory items)? Thanks!

Thinking of a place to eat with a group of 6 this Sunday night for a girl friend's birthday. Recently went to Cheesecake Factory in the States, and I think that's what they all like. - Good port...

Any word on the new Cheesecake Factory Southeast Asian concept? I am not sure if its rumors or there is some degree of truth to it? If yes, they may be competing with Pf Chang's new Japanese Tav...

that had the better meal. I understand that Cheesecake is NOT among the chowhound favorites but, let me tell you of my little story... Last night I was at a fancy wedding at the Nixon Librar...

Yesterday my wife ordered some angel hair pasta at CF. They normally make it with tomato, basil, garlic, olive oil, and the pasta. She took a bite and said "this is kinda sweet", another bite, "thi...
