    Parmesan-Herb Crusted Chicken
    Kim H.

    It's hard to believe but this chain restaurant was leaps and bounds better than many other restaurants we visited in Boston for our first trip. The food was seasoned, cooked correctly and good. The only downside was our Georgia Peach drinks weren't quite right but they weren't horrible. It was a bit of a wait on a Saturday night because the place was packed but it was a good experience for us.

    I had the steak frites and a moscato. It was nice. The service was quick and nice. I was seated to the bar which was good on its own. Ambience was good too, it wasnt that loud. I think the price justifies the food.

    My friends and I had the Korean fried cauliflower. Too sweet for my liking. I ended up having the spicy rigatoni with vodka sauce and my friends had the four cheese and a veggie burger. The veggie burger didn't even have a bun it just had plain bread or multigrain bread for a sandwich. Rigatoni was good a lot on my plate, but it was so good. I would say the best part about this experience was a service was quick and attentive. In regards to the restaurant structure it's like a maze.

    Empty seats.

    The service is extremely slow and they appear to be understaffed. The restaurant was absolutely not busy. We had been there for over an hour and we had only water on the table. 20 minutes waiting for a seat and over 45 minutes for our food. We were probably sitting 10 minutes before someone even acknowledged our presence. No bread, or offering of it, while we waited. Our order was simple - burger, chicken sandwich, salmon bowl. Food was quite good and it came out hot too. We loved the food. Ultimately, a simple lunch was nearly a two hour ordeal. It's too expensive to feel like an afterthought.

    Have you ever wanted to step into a Disney-fied Tuscany? Have you wondered "what would happen if Italy was also in Times Square?" Look no further than the Cheesecake Factory! Cheesecake Factory is always a great option. They have so much on their menu that I feel like I've barely made a dent in trying things. It's consistent and such a great spot. There's something here for everyone. Our server was so so nice she helped us pick out our meals. I had one of the burgers and it was honestly super solid.

    Factory Nachos
    Kit D.

    Great Cheesecake Factory location, super convenient located in Prudential Center - right in the heart of Back Bay. Came here with my girlfriend, my roommate, and her boyfriend on Friday night for a double date. We were super tired and hungry, and chose Cheesecake Factory for its convenience. The restaurant is huge, and was surprisingly empty for a Friday night. They were considerate in pushing our reservation a bit as some of our party was running late, no problems with that. We started off with drinks - my roommate a mojito, her boyfriend a Sam Adams, and my girlfriend and I each Shirley temples. My shirley temple was not mixed well, it was super watered down and tasted like it had seltzer as the base instead of soda. The grenadine was not mixed in well. I asked them to remake it and open second try it was better, but too grenadine-y. Off ratios. But it was not a huge deal, I kept my drink. For an appetizer, we ordered the Factory Nachos, which were an absolute giant portion, but were so delicious. It was more than enough to feed 4 people- it had deep fried chips, melted cheese, queso, salsa, guacamole, sour cream, pico de gallo, and jalapeños. So delicious. Honestly, we easily could've all filled up on the nachos. Delicious appetizer. For our mains my roommate ordered the carbonara, my girlfriend ordered a chicken stir fry rice dish, my roommate's boyfriend got fish n chips, and I ordered the macaroni & cheese burger. My burger was absolutely delicious, the macaroni ball also cooked to perfection. My fries were just OK- which was a little weird because my roommate's boyfriend's fries were much better, and our dishes all came out at the same time. My roommate's carbonara was delicious, but the portion was too big. She had leftovers for 3 days. My girlfriend's chicken and rice dish was really good, a great healthy option. The service throughout the experience was decent - the waiter seemed annoyed at times when we needed more time to order, and responded with phrases like "what?" when he couldn't hear what we were saying, the food also took a long time to come out even though we were one of the only tables in the restaurant. We ended up spending about 2 hours here, but the food was pretty delicious and the company was great so I didn't mind.

    Nice meal on a Friday night after visiting the MFA for first Friday. We ordered the street corn which is basically ribs of corn with butter and cheese. Yummy! I ordered the white chicken chili which comes with rice and salsa. The hubs ordered the pasta carbonara and enjoyed it and a friend ordered the spicy rigatoni vodka pasta and also enjoyed it. Hubs and I had leftovers. The friend also ordered the original cheesecake. Service was good and ambiance is great!

    Cajun Jambalaya Pasta
    Savannah H.

    Look I love Cheesecake Factory but this location needs to die. It needs to be taken to the farm upstate. Sitting at the bar you'll make eye contact, do a courteous little wave, everything and they won't take your order. One of the first and few times I've tipped 0 and not felt guilty as a chronic 30-40% tipper usually. The spring rolls were charcoal. Literally chrispy crumbly black coal. I took the 3 good bites there were but idk how that made it out of the kitchen and no one ever checked on me. I had originally gone for an app, entree, and dessert with some drinks but left immediately after my app. The bartender just chatted in the corner. That was a few days ago Also came for a table today. Unfortunately it's close and easy so it's a lazy pick. You have to ask for bread now!! Brown bread remains great but they caught on to the way their white bread is average and give you two white to one brown. Lousy choice. And I'm still blown I away I needed to ask lolllll but I will say my server (his name started with T and he had round glasses?) was actually so sweet and the only decent server I've had here. He has good energy good vibes. The pasta I got was my fav the Cajun jambalaya. The chicken and shrimp were standardly delish but the pasta was mush. Overcooked and somehow cut into pieces but maybe they broke from being so overcooked. It was pasta mush.

    It's been a while since I've been at this location, but it consistently remains to be one of the best cheesecake factories. Loved everything we ordered had avocado rolls that chicken salad wrap, and the rigatoni sausage pasta and of course chocolate Godiva cheesecake and OMG the new thing I tried was the Korean cauliflower amazing.!!! good to know that this place is consistently good!

    Fried Macaroni and Cheese, Asian Chicken Lettuce Wrap Tacos
    Eva A.

    4.5* Went to the happy hour and am surprised by how much I enjoyed it. I've never had a cosmo before but it was so good, not too sweet and just strong enough. The Asian chicken lettuce wrap tacos were weirdly so flavorful- I could have eaten a dozen of them. The sauces they come with are refreshing and complement the tacos perfectly. The fried Mac and cheese balls were just okay though. They've got to be eaten hot, they aren't good cold and definitely not good as takeout/reheated. The service is just okay, the staff weren't very enthusiastic, but that's fine given it's a chain establishment. I can't speak for the dinner experience, but I would definitely come back for the happy hour!

    Stopped by the Boston location after hearing so much about Uncle Tetsu's famous Japanese…read morecheesecake. There was a short wait since they bake the cheesecakes fresh in batches, but it moved pretty quickly. The Original Japanese Cheesecake was warm, soft, and definitely lived up to its signature "jiggle." It's very different from a traditional cheesecake--much lighter, fluffier, and less sweet, almost like a cross between a soufflé and a sponge cake. If you're expecting a rich New York-style cheesecake, this isn't that. Personally, I enjoyed how light it was, and it didn't leave me feeling overly full. The staff was friendly, and the shop was clean and well organized. My only suggestion would be to have a few more seating options since it's mostly grab-and-go. Overall, it's worth checking out if you're in downtown Boston or curious about Japanese-style cheesecake. I'd come back again and would like to try some of their other pastries next time.

I ordered an Ube cheesecake and repeated my order as it seemed there might have been some miscommunication. I was in a bit of a rush due to limited parking and unfortunately didn't check my bag before leaving. When I got home, I realized I had been given a different cheesecake than what I ordered. I decided to keep it rather than return, as going back to Chinatown wasn't convenient at the time. The cheesecake itself was also disappointing in texture and freshness--it felt quite soggy and not as fresh as expected. Overall, the experience did not meet my expectations, and I don't think I would return.

They have three tablet kiosks for self-ordering, and it's an intuitive UI, so the process was simple. Once I made my decision from their extensive list of options and combinations, it took me maybe 2 minutes from start to finish to build and submit my order. I ordered a large taro milk tea and it was everything I had hoped for. Flavorful, not too sweet, and the tapioca was a wonderful consistency. My only thing was that it was so busy and loud that the staff were unable to continuously call out when orders were complete, or you couldn't hear them. I eventually went up to the bar, noticed my drink had been sitting a few minutes, yelled over, "This is mine, thanks!!" Smiled, and then grabbed it. Beyond that? It was absolutely a great experience.
