The Cheesecake Factory at the Keystone Mall has long been a favorite spot when we're in Indy. During peak hours, one can usually expect a wait to be seated, as it's a busy place! Today we went for a very late lunch, early supper (4PM) and were greeted and seated immediately. Interior is quite attractive, and was the only pic (oops!) I took, showing our view from the booth we occupied. Next time, I'll try to get our food! Started with shared app of eight crab Rangoon wontons, using REAL crab! Very tasty! Hubby had the tuna poke "nachos," using seasoned crispy wontons as the Chip. Topped with fresh sashimi grade tuna, avocado, edamame, peppers, green onion, and a sriracha mayo. Very fresh! Generous portion. He loved them! I always have a hard time getting anything but the appetizer lettuce wraps as my entree...crave-able! Bibb lettuce cups, grilled chicken strips, julienned carrots, bean sprouts, fresh cilantro, lightly pickled cucumber, and three fabulous sauces to drizzle as you assemble the wraps. So many people brag about a well-known (PFC) Asian restaurant's lettuce wraps, which are okay if you've never had Cheesecake Factory's FRESH, crunchy, variety-of-toppings that accompany the perfectly grilled, tender chicken (which far-exceed the other wraps)...key words: fresh and fresh and fresh! This review would be incomplete without mentioning or server, Danine: kind, efficient, checked back regularly, always with a smile, made us believe she enjoyed serving us! Great visit, this was! read more

The cheesecake was, of course, amazing! I ordered a chicken Caesar salad-it was huge! It was a 'different' flavor base than I am accustomed to and I was heavily disappointed to see there wasn't ANY cheese on my salad. EVERY Caesar salad I have had anywhere else had parmesan cheese! The service was wonderful and our server was fairly attentive. The restaurant was beautiful per usual and the seating was comfortable. read more

This is really really good food. Who doesn't like cheesecake? Well maybe get one slice to go home with as well. Nice service and helpful staff explaining menu items. read more

Went for dinner thurs 5.14.26 and got in at a great time, so we didnt have to wait to be seated. Our waitress very very pleasant and brought us fresh hot bread that was steaming. It's been so long since I've been here, I forgot about the bread! Ha. Hubs had the beet salad and added salmon on top, and I had the Thai lettuce wraps. Both were tasty. We ate too much bread, so no room for cheesecake today! #yum #ReviewsByRL read more

I love going to the Cheesecake Factory. I wish they weren't in a mall because parking can be a nightmare. The wait for lunch today was only about 10 minutes. I love their turkey club, it's plenty for 2 people if you wanted to share. I usually get the cream of chicken soup but I guess on Fridays they don't offer that. So I opted for the Tortilla Soup. It had a good flavor but one bite was all I could eat because it was refrigerator cold. A good server would have said was their something wrong with the soup when she say I ate none of it. $8 is a lot for something you didn't eat. I took one star off for that. I ordered whole Banana Cream Pie cheesecake to go for Mother's Day. read more

In order to celebrate my daughter's birthday, but also miss the impending snowstorm, we ordered her favorite cheesecake to go. The ordering was very easy online. They brought the order out fairly quickly. You can see in the picture what we got when we got home. It seems like we lost part of the piece! What we received was very good. We laughed saying they wanted to save her a few extra calories! We do love the pickup option especially on days like today. It's easy and you can usually find a spot to park for pickup. If you want to go in, that's usually a different story! The mall is always busy! read more

Cheesecake Factory is a comfort food haven! Everything is rich and full of flavor. I never leave hungry! My favorite time to visit is during happy hour. And I love that at the locations I've been to, my kids can be seated at the tables near the bar area so we don't have to miss out on the happy hour deals. read more

Came here for Brunch and was told it would be a 20 minute wait. It turned out to be almost 45 minutes...... I ordered the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes: they are an absolute game-changer! They were incredibly fluffy with just the right amount of citrus zing--not too tart, not too sweet. I paired them with eggs over medium. the yolks were perfectly runny, which made for a great savory-meets-sweet bite when mixed with the pancake syrup. The portion size was huge (as expected here), so come hungry! Service was attentive despite the Sunday rush. Definitely adding this to my brunch rotation." read more

I don't always like going to the cheesecake factory because it always seems a little louder than the ambience I prefer. This visit we ordered pick up dessert after we went out to dinner at a different establishment. It was nice that when we arrived our dessert was packaged, neatly, and securely, and ready to go. It was nice that they didn't package the ice cream until I arrived so it wouldn't melt. I was also happy that they gave me additional whipped cream, eating utensils, and napkins to take with my order. The food was delicious and we were both happy with the quality, the presentation, and the serving size. read more

We came here for my birthday - one of my favorite places ever. The server was so fun and helpful! She helped make it a special evening for me. We started off with drink and the best bread ever. Then we had our entrees - a burger and the filet mignon. Honestly the steak was pretty dry, but good flavoring and the sides were good. We finished with some cheesecake. I tried the pumpkin cheesecake (seasonal) and it was fantastic! So light and airy and not at all what I expected. read more

We went there for a birthday celebration as a group of 6. We had a reservation, arrived on time but we didn't get seated until 10-15 minutes after (which isn't terrible). It had been a long time since I went to Cheesecake Factory but I was impressed with the menu still being huge. They have so many items. It took us a while to decide what to order. They also had a separate book for "skinny" menu. I ordered Peruvian Chicken bowl. Our server was good, but could have been more attentive. Food order did take long, but during that time she never came back to check on us which was a bit disappointing. Once the food came she was more around. My food was better and more than expected although it could use more seasoning. This made me full and I didn't order a cheesecake, especially after seeing some of them are over 1,400 calories (!!!) Overall I had a good time there. read more

My husband and I had lunch at Doc B's and decided to walk around the mall and window shop to get a few steps in. That's when we had the great idea to grab dessert to-go from The Cheesecake Factory. I've only ever eaten here twice, I think, but I've ordered apps to-go and dessert more frequently. Their menu is just huge and overwhelming in my opinion. It makes me think "Jack of all trades. Master of none." Aside from the appetizers, the food is just mediocre, but the desserts are where they really shine. My husband ordered Carrot Cake (a classic) and I went for the Pineapple Upside Down Cake Cheesecake. Needless to say, our selections took care of that sweet tooth. Upon arriving, we headed towards the host stand and saw the line at the bakery. Walk-ins, servers and call-ahead/online orders were all being served from the one register. It was chaotic. I think they need a better system for this. It was really loud in there too. I was happy that we ordered ours to-go. read more

My first time at The Cheesecake Factory -- finally! I'd heard so much about the massive menu, and yes, it's just as overwhelming (in a fun way) as everyone says. I had the glazed salmon with mashed potatoes, and it was absolutely delicious. We also tried the fried chicken -- so good! The atmosphere was great, though the tables were packed in a bit tight. Service was excellent from start to finish. And of course, we had to get a slice of cheesecake. It was perfect -- I just forgot to take a photo in all the excitement! The decor is definitely a little odd... but I kind of think that's part of the charm. We'll definitely be back. read more

My husband and I enjoyed a Friday night date at The Cheesecake Factory! We kicked things off with the Grapefruit Elderflower Spritz and the Pineapple Moscow Mule--both on the sweeter side, but absolutely delicious. For starters, we couldn't resist the Fried Mac and Cheese Bites, perfectly crispy on the outside and creamy inside. Our mains were the Chicken Shawarma and Chicken Madeira--both packed with flavor, cooked to perfection, and so satisfying. With no room left for dessert, we grabbed cheesecake to go (because how could you not?). The Godiva Chocolate Cheesecake and Cinnabon Cinnamon Swirl Cheesecake were decadent, rich, and bursting with flavor--best enjoyed with a cold glass of milk. The Cheesecake Factory's massive menu means there's something for everyone, and they truly never miss! Our service was outstanding--10/10! Our server offered fantastic recommendations and had such a warm, upbeat personality. Truly made for a great night! read more

The meal was good, service was good but the wait was unusually long. We were told 20 min wait for a table, however, we were not seated until nearly an hour later. It was apparent that there was a staffing shortage as the servers were extremely busy yet trying not to allow the frustration to be an issue. Once seated, it took another 20-25 min. for our meal to arrive. Our server was gracious, however when we asked another server who was passing by for some hot sauce, she returned and slammed a bottle on the table and it slid off and hit the floor and broke. Never have we had an experience as this! read more

The Cheesecake Factory is a staple that your can't go wrong with. They have a book for a Menu so there's something for everyone. You can enjoy their rotating cheesecake menu as well. I have always liked how they have had veg friendly options on the menu. Our server was super cool and I wish I could remember his name to give him a shout out. I enjoyed how personal he was and gave an experience. read more

CF was once my favorite place to eat and have dessert - not anymore. The service was awful, the portions have been reduced, you must ask for bread if you want it. The new shrimp scampi (kind of like the old bistro shrimp I loved) had no flavor and the shrimp were fried and burnt. The cheesecake was still delicious, however. read more

I haven't been to a Cheesecake Factory in 10...15 years and I don't remember it being anything that blew my socks off...BUT this experience did. We were just in town 2 nights staying at the nearby Sheraton Hotel. Came in an hour before closing on Friday night and the place was packed. Our server was new, but still got adequate service. Enjoyed the flavor of the free bread, that butter is awesome. The bread is just so chewy and hard to eat. I love love loved their hot caramel royal coffee drink. Got the salmon bowl and was blown away by all the great flavors they incorporated into the dish. My brother-in-law got a chicken bowl and loved it. He commented on how impressed he was on how thin they cut the chicken. We really just loved it and now that we are back in TX, will visit our local Cheesecake Factory soon and more frequent. read more

Food was ok, but the food prices could use some work. Terrible for what you get. Also ordered a beer. The waitress brought me a little glass that didn't look like much more than 8oz. When I got the bill the beer price was $8.50 each. That was my first and last trip to the Cheesecake Factory. read more

Service was slow for a Thursday night. Front of house lost our spot on the wait list and made us wait an additional 20min. Not a big deal if they was busy but they were not. Then when it came to ordering I had the chicken Madeira and it was disgusting. Tasted like a dirty pan and old melted mozzarella just to make it pass. 0/10 would absolutely not get that dish again. Other than that 3/10 total. read more

Always surprised how busy they are with people constantly waiting. 830 pm and a 40 min wait. We were sat in a booth ( our preferred seating ) the chairs are uber uncomfortable. Our server greeted us after about 5 min. We ordered iced tea and the new pretzel bite w cheese fondue. Server brought out bread and iced water. We assumed tea was being brewed. Sever came back after a bit to get our order. We got a chicken Caesar salad and a chicken salad sandwich w fries. Our pretzel bites and cheese arrived. The pretzel bits were almost burnt. First dip into the fondue we could tell the mix had split. It wasn't smooth and had the consistency of cornmeal mush. Flavor was alright. Our main entrees came out. And they were fine not great not bad. We got refills on water and no mention of the tea. We finished our meal and got the check. Over 60$ for a salad with chicken, chicken salad sandwich with bacon and fries and the pretzel / cheese appetizer. Drinks weren't on the bill. So either he didn't hear us both when we said unsweetened iced tea or he realized he never got them and took them off the meal. The Appetizer was over $15 for burnt pretzels and split fondue. For as busy as they were it wasn't very noisy inside. After this meal we both wished we'd gone to the Brazilian Grill instead. I don't see the draw for Cheesecake Factory any more. read more

I'm here to write about my experience here at the cheesecake factory. The food that I got was really good. The food always delivers. What was so disturbing was to see the man busing the tables, clean up everyone's dirty dishes, and then use the same hands that he had just cleaned the dirty table and plates with, put out clean plates and silverware and napkins. It made me wonder if the utensils we were using had been touched by him as well We had already eaten most of our food when the table next to us had been cleaned. But we were pretty grossed out, sitting there watching that. read more

Food was fine but terrible service today. It took our table of 4 over 2 hours to finally pay and get out of there. We were there at 12:30 and didn't leave till 2:45. Ordered an appetizer with our drinks. After about 30 min and still not getting it, we told our server to forget them since we THOUGHT our food would be soon. She forgot to even put in the order. No alternations to our order so it wasn't a special request or anything. We flagged a manager to our table and advised him about all the trouble with our meal and he basically walked away from us. Didn't even say sorry. I could go on but I won't. We were not rude or mouthy and still left a tip but geez, this place isn't cheap so you would think we would've had a better experience. read more

I grew up in the Indy area and I have always had a great experience at this location. The service is always great, the food is always good and plates/silverware are always clean.

Was very disappointed by the food and service at The Cheesecake Factory at Keystone. The food was below par (average at best). The good news: I must give a big thumbs up to my vegetables (when I finally received them). The mashed potatoes and carrots were excellent and the green beans were cooked to absolute perfection. After trying a piece, I brought the biscuit home to my dog, but the warm bread served to the table at the outset was delicious! Those who ordered dessert (cheesecake in one case, red velvet cake in the other) raved about the taste and quality. The bad news (service):There were 4 of us in our group. When the first of our orders finally arrived after a considerable wait, only 2 of us were served (by our "official" server) and both of those orders were missing components (the salad in one case and a vegetable in the other). The other two people in our party were served (by someone running out of the kitchen and presumably off the line) about 5 minutes later. One person still had to wait for the drink she ordered even before we ordered food. The bad news (food): The burgers were the size of chocolate chip cookies and I found the "fried chicken" in the Southern Fried Chicken Bowl to be inedible. The guest who ordered the Double Smash Cheeseburger left half of it on his plate saying it wasn't worth the effort to eat it. Summary: Use your own judgment, but I will not return to what I had heard was a wonderful establishment. (Well, maybe just for a slice of cheesecake.) read more

I don't normally leave poor reviews but I would advise anyone considering dining at this location to reconsider. We decided to go to Cheesecake Factory for our wedding anniversary because we both wanted cheesecake. We arrived for our 7pm reservation and were told there was no reservation in our name. I definitely called the previous day and made a reservation, and checked my phone records to make sure it was the right location. Thankfully it was a Tuesday night so we didn't have to wait too much longer past 7 for a table. We got sat next to the bussing station and battled fruit flies the entire meal. We ordered an appetizer which was completely forgotten, and by the time our server returned so we could ask him about it, our dinners had arrived. The food was ok but nowhere near being worth $25 a plate. The old fashioned my husband ordered was $17, which was extremely overpriced for what you get. We picked this restaurant for the cheesecake, but were so disappointed by the end of our meal we didn't want to spend any more money here so we skipped dessert. I know Cheesecake Factory isn't the nicest restaurant in the world but when you're paying more than $70 for two dinners and one drink, you expect a little more in both quality and service. read more

If you'll read the 3, 2and 1-star reviews here you'll get the sense that the CF at the Fashion Mall lacks the quality of service and organization to make dining there a pleasant experience. I would go further to say they just don't care, at least they didn't care about my wife and I at 3 p.m. on Friday, April 10 when we waited along with 23 other people, not including the two couples and family of four I saw walk out in disgust -- this when one entire secrion of the restaurant had at least 10-12 open tables. The attitude of the hostess was terse borderline rude. Th apparent manage type assisting her seem to lack any knowledge of customer service not apologing for trying to put us at a table by the retrooms and waitresss station when there were other tables open. A request for another table brought, not an apology, but an excuse ("no servers there") for a booth 8-feet from when she was trying to seat us. Cheesecake Factory is now partly true to it's name - A "FACTORY" The Cheesecake Factory Incorporated (NASDAQ: CAKE) wants your money. What we wanted and the increasing number of people becoming disappointed and dissatisfied is to be treated like a valued customer and be given quality food by a friendly and efficient server, not be thrown on the coveyor belt to generate a higher quarterly EPS. read more

"Shrimp Scampi and Steak Diane"...my goodness, THE BEST FOOD IVE EVER TASTED IN LITERALLY 5 years lol. Steak was amazing, the sauces, the pasta etc. The key is it originally comes with mash potatoes instead of pasta. Ask to substitute the mash potatoes with pasta. The best food hack of all time. I got it from TikTok. It was clean inside and spacious. It was packed so we sat at the open bar. It would be to reserve a spot. Everyone seemed friendly and the bartender was welcoming. read more

Have a great time at this location. The location was clean and well kept in line what you would typically expect from a cheesecake factory. What was outstanding was the service. Pink,who works in the bar, was a wonderful time. She made great drinks and made great suggestions for food to eat. I really enjoyed the crispy crab wontons. I also really enjoyed the strawberry martini and a dirty martini as well. Pink had such good energy and it was a welcome for my visit to Indianapolis. If you're gonna come here, they have all the things that other cheesecake factories due except for pink so ask for her! I definitely would return. read more

Typically have good experiences with Cheesecake Factory. Only remembered to get a picture of the appetizer. We had chicken picatta and steak tacos which were very good. The lemon raspberry cheesecake was very good too! Disappointed in the lettuce wraps though, we only had 3 pieces of chicken, hardly enough to even make 2 wraps. We sat at the bar and were able to get in quickly on Sunday morning. Music is nice and staff friendly. read more

We tried to place a to-go order in the store at the bakery counter, and they would not let us get a side of Alfredo for a to-go order of bread. This was just the employee being lazy, because they didn't want to take a to-go order.. because we have received the exact same order we were trying to place while dining in multiple times. Companies like these lose out of revenue because employees fail to do their simple job of placing an order. We've decided to not come back to the Cheesecake Factory, as we shouldn't have to do the job for the employees. read more
