    This was son Krishnan and Madison's birthday. We got a lot of food as they don't let you leave hungry. Each time I come back I seem to like it way more than I recall. One thing to consider... If in a big group, maybe share a plate and leave room for dessert!

    I was invited to a birthday lunch here, otherwise this wouldn't have been my choice! Issue one: they don't take reservations for parties larger than 6 - which is such a dumb policy and makes it impossibly stressful to plan a get together here. Issue two: I know it's their thing, but the length of the menu was making my head spin and when a menu is that voluminous I doubt they can make everything well. Issue three: the portion sizes are absurd. I ordered a lunch-sized chicken piccata and it was like 3 people worth of food, which is just not appetizing. Issue four: way over priced for what it is. A kids spaghetti and meatball was $12 and that is all it includes, no fruit or veggies or drinks. Overall, "factory" is a perfect name for this place because I felt like a small cog in this machine of a restaurant. Too many people everywhere, food is mediocre, and not anywhere I would want to come back.

    Their menu is so big hahaha - review it before going! They have everything from Asian food, to Italian, to American and more. It's a pricey place. Expect $50 a head or more. And there were a few things without prices on the menu, which I found odd. I enjoyed the n/a drinks and my main meal (chicken parm pizza style). The egg roll apps were okay. It's a nice vibe for a date night or celebration, even being in a mall. I liked their patio too. Staff was attentive and friendly. Not a place I'll frequent, but if you haven't been in awhile worth stopping by (maybe just for dessert!)

    Happy hour time !

    Enjoyed getting happy hour the nachos weren't the best maybe because of the cheese used more nachocy but nice portion size and the prizes are good. The server was really observant asking when I needed more bread and water. and their regular menu is huge so can get whatever you'd like. I love the oat dark bread with butter sooo good!!!

    Another solid dinner at Minnetonka's Cheesecake Factory! I had a dinner reservation a few days in advance for my husband and our toddler to have dinner at 5:45pm on a Saturday night. I'm glad I did as this place is always packed and hard to get into on the weekends! Didn't help us that it was also Prom that weekend, so lots of people wanting to dine here. We started off with 2 baskets of bread and butter which is always warm, fresh, and 10/10. We then tried something new to us, the Crispy Fried Cheese. It was good, but we usually order the Fried Mac and Cheese Balls and even though it had the same breading, the Mach and Cheese Balls are better since they provide more of a variety in each bite versus the one note flavor of the Crispy Fried Cheese. I like that the breading has the taste of Parmesan in there which helps elevate the crispiness of the dish. For the main meal, my husband ordered the Chicken Bellagio and I ordered the Egg Roll Sampler. Both were just what we expected as we have had both before. Our server was attentive and even boxed all our leftovers up for us, which was a HUGE help as we were busy wrangling our toddler. I always enjoy a dinner at Cheesecake Factory and keep coming back for the delicious variety it brings!

    I haven't been to Cheesecake Factory in YEARS until tonight. My friend and I were looking for an easy dinner spot with lots of options to please everyone and a comfortable spot to meet and chat. I was pleasantly surprised at the ambiance of this place. The lighting is really cool and much nicer than I had expected for a chain. We actually made a reservation in advance and requested a booth, and upon arrival saw probably 10 open booths -- again requested a booth and they said there wasn't any available. Then they sat a bunch of groups of 2 at those booths in the following couple of minutes. Totally makes me upset when they do this...especially when we thought ahead and asked for the booth ahead of time. We ordered the Avocado Egg Rolls, Louisiana Chicken Pasta, and the Oreo Cheesecake. All were decently good. Nothing to write home about, but good. We had a server in his first week of serving, so there were a few hiccups like empty water glasses, forgetting share plates, and aggressively checking back near the end of our meal, enjoying our dessert, seemingly urging us to vacate the table. I would have ordered a drink, but there were no drink prices listed -- biggest pet peeve when they do this at restaurants. Its shady.. and I'll never order a drink at places that don't publish prices for menu items. All in all, pretty on par with what you'd expect!

    My best friend and I love The Cheesecake Factory. We usually both get the same thing. The spicy chicken sandwich but I'm trying to eat healthier so I opted for the lettuce wraps. They were very yummy and not too heavy. Of course I still got my strawberry lemonade. I love their brown bread. I never have room for cheesecake which is sad given their name. They totally redeemed themselves from the last visit.

    grilled chicken avocado club

    Have never had a bad experience at Cheesecake Factory......tonight was no exception. NUMMY! It's just so far away. My fiancé had the grilled chicken avocado club that was very tasty, (maybe a tad heavy on garlic) but still super delicious I moaned after I took a bite of his sandwich. I ordered what I thought was called chicken piccata but now I can't find it on their menu but it was very good with a lemon cream sauce and capers, the angel hair pasta was perfect not too heavy, not too light. Every bite was heaven. And they bring out a warm bread basket with your meal. And their menu is enormous, if you can't find something to eat here something is wrong with you and everything they make is wonderful!! Guess that is why they are always busy. We did get a piece of vanilla bean cheesecake to bring home.

    It had been forever since we'd visited Cheesecake Factory but took a family outing to get a late lunch recently. It was just as I'd remembered it. One good thing about chain restaurants is that they are usually pretty reliable and consistent no matter which location you visit. This spot is connected to the mail so it can get pretty busy. We got in the virtual waistline ahead of time but still had about 10-15 min wait. Our waiter was great, serving sized were ginormous and the cheesecake was rich. We had a mix of pasta dishes and burgers and all were very good with plenty of leftovers to take home. If you're looking for a solid meal with an encyclopedia of options, Cheesecake Factory is always a good choice.

    Eggroll Sampler
    Joe Y.

    The menu is massive and the portion sizes are massive! I had the egg roll sampler appetizer and it was more than enough for a meal. Everyone else is my group took home leftovers. We also split 2 pieces of cheesecake between four people and could barely finish them. Although our waitress was clearly very busy, she always kept our drinks full and provided great service.

The shrimp was nice and hot with a perfect coating of parm keeping it light and tasty. Ravioli had a nice topping which created a good contrast of textures. It came in two sizes and the smaller portion was more than enough for me. We finished our meal with a shared crème brûlée. Creamy custard and a crispy top was a perfect end to the meal.
