    Had a nice solo dinner at the Cheesecake factory. My server Izzy was very nice and provided great service. It was early and not very crowded. I enjoyed my meal except the brussels sprouts that I was eager to try. My dish was mostly outer leaves rather than actual sprouts abd they taste a little bitter to me. My pasta was delicious though and my drinks were delicious. I also enjoyed my upside-down pineapple cheesecake. Overall it was a great solo dinner.

    Tuscan Chicken

    We had another fantastic meal here and our waiter, Eric was very attentive. I had The Tuscan Chicken and cheesecake from the Skinnylicious Menu & they were both excellent and nothing tasted skinny about either and the portions were plentiful. My husband had the enchiladas.

    Was there again 7/10 still as good as ever. I had the Thai lettuce wraps and the Southwest eggrolls, so good. Good lunch meal with a friend at the end of my vacation. The wraps are one of my favorite dishes here but I don't like the peanut sauce and that's just because I don't like peanuts that much. The other two sauces however are really good. We had a good server and we had a nice view out the window. It was a nice lunch friend date and not too crowded.

    Our food was very hit or miss. My husband's old fashioned, which I took a picture of because it looked so bizarre, tasted like cherry medicine. My well mannered martini (which is a dirty martini with vodka), was ok. Very strong, but definitely not my favorite. I was able to power through, my husband sent his back. The martini was $16 so for that price I would have expected better. The Caesar salad had way too much dressing, next time I'll ask for it on the side. My son whose seven said this is not the best Cheesecake Factory we've been to, which made me chuckle because we've only been to two. Those were the major negatives for food. It also took a long time to get our food, which was a bit surprising. These two things together is why I gave it 2 stars. I don't go to a Cheesecake Factory expecting to be blown away, but usually it's a solid experience. That's why this one was underwhelming. My son loves the sourdough bread. He ate half a chicken tenders but likes the fries (which he says reminds me of McDonald's. I'm not claiming he's my high brow child.) I appreciate the calories on the menu and got an impossible burger which I really liked. My husband got a chicken Parmesan sandwich and said it was good, he took half home. This place is huge. I probably won't come back since there are other restaurants around, but if my son really wants to come here at least I know now what to avoid.

    We arrived for Happy hour and were seated at the bar . The bartender was very slow with taking our order . We ordered two drinks the mojito and the whiskey smash they were ok not strong enough. Crab wontons is always good however, my first order came out over cook. Second order was great. Cheeseburger Spring Rolls were delicious and the red sauce . Asian tendloin Bowl The garlic noodles was delicious. However, they mixed fresh vegetables with frozen veggies taste almost like a frozen dinner.

    Fettuccini Alfredo with chicken
    Lori S.

    After eating at CF many times, I was expecting that the food we ordered for pick up to be good. However, I was very disappointed in the fettuccine alfredo. The noodles were mushy and the dish was poorly seasoned. The chicken was very dry and tasteless. For the price, our food was beyond sub par.

    The Cheesecake Factory at Brandon Exchange (formerly Brandon Town Center) is a beautiful restaurant with great food and service. I may be biased as The Cheesecake Factory is my favorite chain restaurant, but I can honestly say this was a 5 star experience in all aspects. The menu is extensive and continues to change over the years. Tonight I saw some new items but also saw things that have been there for 20 years. My favorite "Cajun chicken littles" is now "chicken tenders." The only difference was that the corn succotash was substituted for just corn. We ordered 3 appetizers on the happy hour menu which is only available at the bar. It saves about $4-5 per plate. Service at the bar was excellent. We always had full drinks. As usual, we took a lot of food home; the portion sizes are large. Last but not least is the cheesecake. You must try the cheesecake. There are over 30 different cheesecakes. It takes two pages to list them all and the cakes. A few of my favorites are the Oreo, Reese's, or Hershey's. They're all good! The Cheesecake Factory is the best chain restaurant in my opinion. There is something on the menu for everyone. Food quality is above average and so is the portion. I've been dining at their restaurants for over 20 years and tonight was a perfect example of why they are the best.

    Can't go wrong with the plethora of menu items. There's something for everybody here. Sat in the rotunda room.

    I've gone to this location a few times! Always really nice and the food is really good. I usually go for the happy hour since that makes the most sense. Only con is it is only available at the bar area instead of the whole restaurant. I've tried a few things. The eggrolls are delish!! My favorite being the chicken taquitos and the avocado eggrolls. The chicken blasts were okay, crunchy outside but soggy inside not for me. But taste overall was good. Very filling i could only have one. This cheesecake was the snores cheesecake very chocaletly. They definitely shrunk in size but what can you do! Either way all their dishes taste fresh and the free bread is always a plus:)!

    Canada Dry Ginger Ale

    Been going to the Brandon Cheesecake Factory for a couple years now just as a twice a year kind of customer. The food was excellent, there are some dishes I frequent back to like the lemon shrimp angel hair pasta or their Reese's Cheesecake, but there are dishes I've had that I would not get again- which is okay because they have a huge menu. Also pro tip, don't buy the ginger ale there, they charged me 4.95 for a small bottle. Service is nice but every time the server seems too busy to give the best service to their abilities. The ambiance is nice with their lighting and interior design as Cheesecake is known for.

    Spicy Rigatoni
    Shanae S.

    I went on a Friday at 3pm so that's a busy time. The parking is always full, but it doesn't take long to find a spot. There was a 40 minute wait time and it took the whole 40 minutes. The server we had was not the best, but it looked like they had good servers otherwise. The menu is overwhelming because they have too many options. I ordered a mocktail which was good and the price was fair. I had the spicy rigatoni and it wasn't the best pasta Iv'e ever had, but good enough to eat. Overall, I do want to go again and see will my experience be a little better.

    Seared Tuna Tataki Salad*
    April D.

    Overall it was a pleasant experience. I went on a Tuesday night at 9pm and there weren't many people, which was really nice. For anyone who doesn't know, Cheesecake Factory is notorious for their extensive menu. I eventually decided on the crispy brussels sprouts and Tuna Tataki salad. The brussels sprouts were crunchy, but I was a bit disappointed because almost the entire dish composed of separate leaves instead of whole sprouts. The flavor was good though. As for the salad, the tuna was good but it was a little strange that they gave me the sliced tomatoes and avocado on the side of the plate. It was still fine though. The main reason for my trip here was to redeem the free birthday cheesecake with any purchase. Just make sure you sign up for their rewards before your birthday! I got the pineapple upside down cheesecake and it was good.

Our waitress was super friendly and helpful. We even received coupons for a free app in the future for our first visit. We had the shrimp tacos and the bbq brisket flatbread. Both were great. One thing I really enjoyed about the tacos was the inclusion of guacamole with chips instead of chips only. I really think that was a unique touch for a casual restaurant that I really appreciated. I would return if I'm in the area.

    I was utterly upset and disgusted with how u was treated at the Brandon,FL location. From the time…read moreI walked in to get my (7:33pm) order as that was the time it said it would be ready. Which I ended up having to wait 10mins as it was not ready. I think asked the host for a drink due to my inconvenience and having to wait (which I feel was not a big ask) she responded and said she can't. So I asked for a manager whom I spoke with Marcel and MICHAEL the on duty managers who then said my food just came up but this regarded the drink that I asked for. As a person in customer service especially corporate this was very unprofessional and their was not one once of empathy towards me and not to mention the attitude the girl had towards me from the time I walked to the host stand. So I got my food finally 17 minutes later and they forgot my jalapeño that came with my order haven't waited so long you would of thought they would had double checked the order before brining it to me. Not the case. So I the get all the way home ready to eat my food to see that all three of my tacos were extremely brunt at this point I am furious having drove all the way back home and to now have to drive and waste unnecessary gas that I should not have had to is beyond ridiculous. I get there speak with both of the guys and tell them this is unbelievable and unacceptable and I clearly wanted a refund. From start to finish this experience got worse and worse. I told MICHAEL the issue and both of the had no regards to how unhappy I was have not type of empathy and made me feel even worse as a customer. I really feel like the kitchen people were trying to be funny with my order. Even with me face to face and expressing to them both the lack of empathy they had towards me and my inconvenience they still gave none. So he went processed the refund and then wants to come back and give me the receipt and a free chips and salsa like the fact that asked for a measly drink from hump that thy could not even accommodate me is diabolical and to think after how I was treated that I would even want to support this business absolutely not. I literally was just telling my cousin how good they were and not I and forced to banned them completely due to the lack of customer service. As a major corporation you would think they would make things right for the customer so that it would not escalate to this measure but sadly this is the route I have to go to. In order to be seen and heard. This company handled this situation so distasteful. The restaurant literally flipped the issue so they made themselves look as if they did nothing wrong. As a company there was no accountability from upper management on how they restaurant made me feel they did nothing to show any type of empathy and accused me of things that I did not do this is beyond baffling I expected way more from a big named company like themselves. I respectfully will never go to this location. I do feel like they played victim, and they basically made me feel like my concerns were not heard and they had done no wrong when in fact there really was. Please be aware if you choose to spend your money here at this location. I highly recommend not going to this location awful customer service and management! I posted the conversation to show how the restaurant location completely made up lies and deception to make them look like they did no wrong and that I was the "aggressor" when in fact I was not and they choose to treat me racially per the hostess in the front and so management can think that they did no wrong which is crazy for a company.

While waiting for friends, we sat at the bar and ordered drinks. Bartenders were attentive and kind. Everyone arrived and we headed to the bay. Immediately ordered food and started playing. Once you enter your information on the screen, your play time starts IMMEDIATELY. The problem with this is that the food took way too long (mind you, it wasn't even busy) that the play time was dang near over before the food arrived, making us add more time. We tried to order drinks with about 15 mins playing time remaining, and our server said we'd have to pay for more time or our bay would have to be forfeited. To sum it up, we felt rushed. My suggestion to maximize playing time is to order food and drink at the bar before hand and IF POSSIBLE (because I didn't try this so I don't know if its allowed), bring the food and drinks to the bay when you're ready to play.

She promptly brought me menus and asked if I'd like anything to drink, which she delivered without hesitation. While I was perusing the menu, Shana went to another table, but she returned quickly to take my order. My Farmhouse Hash arrived in about 10 minutes, and it was delicious. Shana checked in with me a few times during my meal, but she didn't hover, which I appreciated.

That peaceful feeling remains, in its successor-this still newish First Watch. They've opened it up in here... no room dividers-the duct work exposed in the now higher ceiling. When you walk in, there are booths and tables left, right and center-and a cute little high top bar to the right (juices and juice blends and, I believe, limited cocktails. They have some on the menu) The decor is contemporary industrial, with some charming vintage touches sprinkled here and there. And a mural reminds you you're in Brandon-a nice nod to local. I was happily seated by a big window. My server was sweet-brought water right away. (And what is it about cold water in a glass bottle, poured into a glass ? It's magical! I'd make Mom proud and up my water intake if I served it that way at home) She gave me plenty of time to choose my breakfast. I went with the "traditional"-2 scrambled eggs, 3 pieces of bacon (you can choose other meats-or upgrade to their million dollar bacon), breakfast potatoes and thick, rustic toast with butter. Oh, it was good-especially the bacon. I paired it with a kale juice blend that was tasty and hopefully healthy. (My carbonated Diet Coke bloodstream needed a break) It came to just under $22. I'd order it again, but there are lots of other intriguing options on both the regular menu-and the seasonal one. It's comfy, casual, cozy and spotlessly clean. It wasn't overly busy on the Tuesday morning I was there-but it was in between breakfast and lunch. I'm sure it's bustling at prime times. There's lots of parking and abundant covered, outdoor seating on two sides of the building. It's easy, breezy and yum. Oh yes, I'll be back.
