    Ahi crispy rice
    Danielle J.

    A bit stunned with how terrible dining here was. **a little acknowledgment goes a long way. There are plenty of things going on not in one person's control that can be understood with simple communication. Slowest lunch experience and the biggest miss on service. I have never been made to feel like such an afterthought or really no thought. Other's around me had more attentive service. Ordered appetizer because wanted something quick. My ticket was out in front of me time stamped 12:57 and my appetizer out 1:31. Brought the part of my food that was to-go almost 15 mins before someone finally brought the small app I ordered for there. Ended up eating a bite of the to-go bc it was taking so long. Would have been nice if I had ever had someone check on me after I ordered where I could have just cancelled that food. WHICH should have happened. Or at any point after I ordered. Hard to get any service attention in general. Sat around a while too before I could even order, and waited a bit bc of seeing it was busy before finally asking to place an order. There is only so far of being busy to being service negligence. I wish I could say that it was just an understaffed issue - they clearly needed a bartender and service bar- but really some awareness from staff to get help would have been key. Ahi tuna app was blah, weird temp & texture (clearly from sitting) and strange color. Should not have been served like that. Service mishaps should have been acknowledged and weren't. Again - nothing was ever said to me after I ordered. Better service at airport iPad kiosk.

    We have been eating at the Green Hills Cheesecake Factory every weekend for 3 years straight. This specific one is our favorite. We always get a reservation so that we can sit at a booth. The food is so good and fresh, and I've had almost all their cheesecakes with the exception of a few, and their carrot cake is phenomenal! The ambiance is casual and clean. Also a quick mention that the female manager with the very short hair is fantastic. She does a great job with her crew. This is by far the best location out of all three locations in the area.

    Female bartender on Saturday is amazing. I love to pop in and sit at the bar! She makes great drinks and has great service. The pasta...never fails me either!

    First visit, and it was fantastic. Didn't have the cheesecake yet, but instead had spaghetti and meatballs. Absolutely amazing, and the service was top notch. Ordered a cheesecake for my nursing staff at Vanderbilt for next week. They're going to love it.

    1st time at this particular location and it didn't disappoint! My order was correct and made in a timely manner. My rewards were applied and saved me $ 7.50 - Bravo !

    As my last review for this location was over a decade ago, it seemed worth an update particularly given my recent visit and the fact that--nothing has really changed either for the good or bad aspects of this location in particular? Service is still pretty friendly and good, the food is still of good quality--for a chain restaurant with an enormous menu, it's usually a solid bet for a better than decent meal. This time around, I had the steak diane and my wife had the orange chicken. We also tried the baked brie appetizer that is new, and (what drew us to make this reservation) used our "Cheesecake Rewards" to split a slice of chocolate tuxedo cheesecake. However--cleanliness is still an issue here. I've been here 2-3 times a year for the past decade. It's a convenient location when you're catching a movie at the GH Regal and/or for many other stops. The Rewards program is solid. The food is usually dependable. But no matter what time of day or night, the bathrooms are dirty or unstocked, the menus need a wipedown, and often the counters and tables/booths do as well. This time--there was a horrific stench wafting across the front of the restaurant as you entered the door. When my wife attempted to wash her hands she found the women's bathroom completely closed "for maintenance" and was directed to another restaurant two doors down if she wished to care for her own hygiene. This was a Friday evening. Pretty full(ish) restaurant, so maybe they're right in that people will overlook these things. But it made us pause and wonder if we should go elsewhere if something that blatant and on the surface was lacking in cleanliness. Ultimately our appointment in the neighborhood and our reasoning that surely there was clean water and soap for employees in the back kept us there. But we shouldn't have had to have this deliberation before a meal of almost $100. This location should have closed earlier in the day and gotten a plumber out--are you even supposed to stay open without granting customers a bathroom and/or sink to clean up? Our food was good, we did not get ill, and are server was friendly. But taking an interest in the cleanliness of your location is well overdue here.

    Cookie Dough Lover's Cheesecake with Pecans
    Travis B.

    Cookie Dough Lover's Cheesecake with Pecans: Dessert is arguably the best part of a meal, so how can one not be excited by a restaurant with a name that implies large quantities of cheesecake are manufactured there!? I've tried most of the Cheesecake Factory's cake flavors that I intend to, as a few just don't appeal to me (mostly the fruity ones, yuck!). It's a slow process since I like returning to my favorites rather than risk trying a new one every time I go. Plus, they offer over 30 varieties. Cookie Dough is a relatively new member of their menu as it was added in 2023. It's a creamy cheesecake loaded with chocolate chip pecan cookie dough and topped with cookie dough frosting. Initially I had some trepidation about trying it as I'm not a huge fan of nuts in my desserts. Thankfully, I didn't feel that the miniscule amounts of pecans made much of a difference. Great for me but might not be for you if you're getting it for the pecans. This is in contrast to the chocolate chips teeming on and within the slice. The chips add a magnificent texture contrast to the creamy cheesecake. Speaking of cheesecake, the actual cheesecake portion is just what I've come to expect, creamy, sweet and tangy (but not overly so). Possibly the most unique aspect is the crust. There's no official description on the menu, but I swear it's like an actual cookie! Lastly is the phenomenal cookie dough frosting, which my only complaint is there's not enough (probably a good thing though considering the slice is already 1,550 calories).

    Honestly it was just ok. We ordered the brussels sprouts and were really excited. What we got was overly burnt to a crisp leaves. I am someone who likes a bit of a burnt taste but they were fully charred and inedible. Our server took them off and she was very understanding about it. My pasta was ok but that's that. Could have easily made it at home. Like i tasted it and immediately thought "i can make this at home" like nothing special at all. Drinks were great though.

    Our very tasty cheesecake.

    How many people can they seat at a time and do they take reservations?

    We just reserved a table for 6 on a Thursday night.

    Whats the best to try?

    For dinner, I love their Smokehouse BBQ Burger! And for cheesecakes, I loved the cookie dough one! The celebration one was good too.

Their ice creams are creamy and naturally flavored. I have tried the Brambleberry Crunch, which is one of my favorites. Their Darkest Chocolate ice cream is also delicious and decadent. But the Hibiscus Chili was the most underrated flavor. I think it deserves a lot more hype. The ice cream shop at this location can get very busy, but the service is extremely quick. The team at Jeni's is always patient with me, even when I am confused with all their range of flavors. I particularly love how the shop smells of baked waffle cones.

It's long, it's inevitable, and trying to fight it is a rookie mistake. Because when ice cream is this profoundly good, crowds happen. Step two: Don't panic. The crew behind the counter operates with the high-speed efficiency of a pit crew, yet somehow maintains the absolute patience of saints while you undergo an existential crisis deciding on flavors. My personal blueprint for success was all about contrast. I engineered a double-scoop masterpiece: a heavy, deeply decadent, unapologetic chocolate base, perfectly countered by a lighter, delicate second scoop to balance the universe. It was an elite flavor pivot. Delicious doesn't even cover it. Meanwhile, my wife absolutely devoured her fruit-forward flavors with a speed that felt slightly competitive. Total sensory overload in the best way possible. I'm giving this place a flawless five stars, mostly because I have to, but also because I am currently stalking the freezer aisle of my local Publix like a person possessed, trying to hunt down pints to replicate this high until I can get back to Nashville. Do your tastebuds a favor. Just get in line.

Should have eaten upstairs. The wait for ordering was not long which is a plus. However I feel their ordering system could be a little more streamlined, there are a lot of clicks for each item. I am used to SS in Chicago and it's the same there too. I ordered nothing crazy, a cheeseburger with added pickles and some fries, and an Arnold Palmer (50/50 lemonade and tea). We waited at our table and eventually got the text our food was ready but it took over 10 minutes after that to come out. At one point they tried to bring us someone else's food and they seemed very confused about it when we said that wasn't my order. I confirmed before we left that we didn't make a mistake while ordering so it wasn't something we did. When the food did come out it had clearly been sitting for some time. The bun had not been fully cut in half and this was not even visible inside the wrapping. It was crumpled up in a cold soggy mess at the bottom of the wrapping and was inedible. I essentially ate a naked burger. The cheese had solidified and was not at all melted showing how long the food was sitting. The fries were thankfully not cold but lukewarm at best. And to top it off my drink was incorrect, it tasted and looked like strawberry lemonade. I ended up throwing much of the meal in the trash. The person delivering the food should have noticed this was not up to par and sent it back. The cleanliness was also not up to the standard I expect at SS but considering their location and time of day I would give them a pass. Would not recommend coming here after hours.
