    I come here for every birthday with my family as I love the food and the portions are huge! The wait times are usually long but to be expected as they don't take reservations and they are the only branch in Canada. Thankfully, I don't live too far and since they are located in Yorkdale mall, you can always shop or look around to make up time. I love their Fried Chicken Cobb salad and the Cajun salmon is to die for. I love the spinach and artichoke dip but wish they used another bread rather than tortilla chips. Prices are a bit higher than other places but, happy hour specials are good and have lots of food and drinks to choose from for $9-$12. Would definitely recommend!

    Skinny Asian Chicken Salad...that's a skinny size
    Rob W.

    We went on Easter Monday to The Cheesecake Factory for a lunch It is located in Yorkdale Mall near what was the Bay They are the famous American chain known for of course their cheesecake and a huge variety of food They are quite busy We showed up and it was a 20 minute wait for a table for two We ended up keeping ourselves busy by waking the mall and we got a text to say the table was ready For lunch we started with the small plate Asian Chicken Nachos They were really good We shared the skinny Asian chicken salad The salad is big and not for one person....that's for sure It was good and a fav of my wife's It was a nice casual and laid back dining experience Only knock is that they don't take reservations here ...I know it's the only one right now in Ontario but hopefully if a second location opens in the GTA ...they can start to do so Didn't get cheesecake but I think on my next visit I will have to grab a slice of that key lime cheesecake

    Delicious food overall. Loved the crispy chicken for the Louisiana pasta, i felt the portion used to be bigger and tastier. My mom ordered the shrimp scampi with angel hair pasta which was do flavorful and delicious. For appetizers we ordered Calamari and fried Mac & cheese balls both were so delicious. For drinks we tried the frozen mango drink which didnt disappoint packed with mango flavour but a bit too thick for my liking. Last but not least we got fresh strawberry cheesecake to share which was the showstopper but I felt the portion of the cheesecake slice became so much smaller! Service could have been better, not too attentive despite it not being busy for a Friday afternoon. The complimentary white bread was delicious as always, brown bread too sweet for my liking.

    Cheesecake Factory is honestly one of my favourite spots of all time. There's just something about the environment and the vibes that makes it so fun. It's chill but still has that cute, slightly chic feel. The interior is beautiful in my opinion, and the dim lighting gives it such a cozy, homey vibe. I love coming here with friends and family. Now, service is definitely slow. There's almost always a long waitlist, usually anywhere from an hour to two hours because it's constantly packed. They don't take reservations either, so you can't book ahead. The one upside is that it's inside Yorkdale, so you can shop while you wait, which honestly makes the time go by faster. Once you're seated, the servers have always been kind and helpful, it's just that things move a bit slow because of how many tables each person is handling. Even on weekdays it's busy, so just keep that in mind. The menu is huge!! literally every dish imaginable and for the most part they do a great job with the flavours. My all-time favourite are the mac and cheese balls. So delicious. 10/10 every single time. This visit we also got the egg roll sampler, which comes with four different rolls: avocado, tex mex, cheeseburger spring rolls, and chicken taquitos. They were all good, and it was my first time trying this. The avocado one was my favourite and it comes with such a yummy sauce. I'd give that sampler an 8/10 just because not every single roll was my absolute favourite, but it was still good. We also got the Buffalo Blast, which I always order. The breading is so good and crispy with buffalo chicken inside, such a cool concept and always a hit for me. 9/10. There were only two of us and these appetizers were more than enough for a full meal. We didn't even finish everything and ended up taking a lot home. Honestly, you don't need to order as much as you think, even though the giant menu makes you want to. Overall, I really recommend this spot. Yes, the wait can be long, but the vibes, portions, and variety make it worth checking out.

    Chicken Bellagio but with Crusted Chicken Romano chicken instead.
    Rob C.

    For what it is. It's fantastic. Cheesecake Factory seems to do chicken right. There are several fantastic chicken dishes so this time I decided to combine two of them. I ordered the chicken bellagio which is usually Crispy Coated Chicken Breast over Basil Pasta and Parmesan Cream Sauce Topped with Prosciutto and Arugula. However I substituted the Romano-crusted chicken breast from Crusted chicken Romano to make an ultra cheesy chicken dish that was frankly fantastic. Also had the cheeseburger spring rolls which were cheesy beefy good What's even better is they give you two rolls of bread with butter to start. The rye version was amazing and I ended up eating the whole thing. Which ruined me for the rest of the meal. Service was nice and standard. Ambiance is classic Cheesecake Factory. It was fun looking. If you're a solo diner like me. Ask to be sat facing the TVs for some entertainment.

    **Familiar Flavors, Always a Treat** The Cheesecake Factory has become one of those spots I return to again and again, and it never disappoints. From the moment you sit down, the warm, bustling atmosphere feels inviting, and the menu is an adventure in itself -- there's something for every craving, whether it's comfort food, indulgent desserts, or something lighter. I've tried several dishes over multiple visits, but my favorites always stand out. The pasta is hearty and perfectly seasoned, the appetizers are consistently flavorful, and, of course, the desserts live up to the hype -- their cheesecakes are rich, creamy, and beautifully presented. Even after numerous visits, the food manages to surprise with little touches of quality that make each meal feel special. Service is friendly and attentive, with staff willing to accommodate requests and ensure a pleasant dining experience. The ambiance adds to the experience too -- lively yet comfortable, perfect for both casual meals and celebratory dinners. If there's one area for improvement, it's that the food occasionally arrives cooler than expected. On one visit, I even had to ask the waiter to reheat the pasta, and while it was handled without issue, a slightly quicker serving or better temperature control would elevate the experience further. Overall, The Cheesecake Factory is a reliable, satisfying spot for anyone looking for a mix of comfort, indulgence, and variety. I'll definitely keep coming back for the classics and new favorites alike.

    Fried Macaroni and Cheese balls
    Nav D.

    I've been to this Cheesecake Factory many times, and honestly, it's usually a perfect 5-star experience. The food is consistent, the vibe is awesome, and I'm always happy with what I order. On this visit, I finally tried the Fried Macaroni and Cheese balls, and I was blown away by how amazingly good they were! I was actually surprised by the flavor and the crunch definitely a new favorite that I'll be ordering every time from now on. I'm giving 4 stars instead of my usual 5 is because of a small hiccup with the service this time. Our waitress took a long time to check back on us for water and drinks. It was a busy shift, which is understandable, but it was a bit frustrating to see her chatting with other staff for a while when we were trying to get her attention. Even with the slow service this one time, I'll definitely be back. You can't beat those Mac and Cheese balls!

    I recently visited The Cheesecake Factory just for dessert, and overall it was a mixed experience. When we entered through the mall entrance, no one greeted us at the door. We had to find the front desk ourselves, and once we got there, it was confusing. There was one line with people trying to make reservations and another group waiting to be seated, but there was no clear direction on where to stand. It also turns out they don't take reservations unless you have a rewards account, which was a bit inconvenient. The restaurant itself was completely packed and very loud. The music combined with how large and full the space was made it hard to hear my friends talking. It's honestly one of the biggest restaurants I've ever been to with tons of seating, but I feel like they could really benefit from some kind of wall dividers or sound-absorbing panels because the noise level was overwhelming. On the positive side, our waiter was really sweet and attentive. Even though we only went for cheesecake, they still brought complimentary bread and butter and gave us free ice water refills, which was a nice touch. The cheesecake slices were huge. One slice was so filling that we had to take leftovers home and it tasted pretty good. However, the price was shocking. My single slice came out to $18, which feels pretty expensive for just dessert. The menu overall has tons of options, but everything is pretty pricey. That said, the vibe of the restaurant is actually really nice with very 2000s Tuscan-inspired decor. I think I would enjoy the cheesecake factory a lot more if it wasn't so loud.

    Portion size is the name of the game here. Everything is huge. I've actually been here many times as it's really a staple favourite of groups so I'm surprised it took me this long to review it. All their dishes are good as you would expect from a chain restaurant. They are also fairly consistent in their preparation. It's definitely a fun time and great for groups but as noted by other diners, the wait is a really pain. Unless you go at an off-peak time, be prepared from anywhere between 45 m to 1hr wait. Although you might be full from the entrees you have to have a slice of cake at the end if you like sweet desserts. They also have a tone of variety too. Not my first and definitely not my last visit. I'm sure I'll be back again in the near future.

    Food is always amazing here and go to place for comfort food wait can be long would, waited about a hour but is conveniently located in the mall so you can shop while waiting but will definitely keep going back. The Mac and cheese balls are a classic and must try

    I had come to this place with lots of expectations as I had had excellent food in the US outlets However I was kinda disappointed here We ordered some steak and four cheese pasta The steak and pasta were not that good The four cheese pasta was actually in red sauce with a blob of four cheese like cream cheese in the centre Ordered Ceaser salad which was very good Their breads were good too The best part of the evening was the service and the awesome cheesecake the orginal New York special cheesecake was like heaven The ambience was amazing too though too crowded on the Weekend

    Louisiana Chicken Pasta
    Lux P.

    Cheesecake Factory will always have such a special place in my heart! Will forever go back for the select few items I have repeatedly ordered: The Brown Bread, Buffalo Chicken Blasters and the Louisiana Chicken Pasta! My favourite place to go for a fun dinner night out, but make sure you are okay to wait for their long wait times! 9/10 recommend!

    Lunch sized Louisiana Chicken Pasta
    Shefali B.

    I came here for the first time for lunch with my sister on a Friday afternoon during March break. We came around 1:00 p.m. and it was pretty busy, but the wait time for two people was only about 15 minutes. Our server Brittany was great! She was so attentive and knowledgeable about the whole menu. She started us off with the bread basket, which I was really looking forward to! Both the brown bread and white bread were very fresh, there was even steam coming out from the bread once you opened it. I wasn't a huge fan of the brown bread, it seemed like it was just pumpernickel bread with a honey and oat exterior which made it pretty sweet. one thing to note is that if you leave the bread out for a little while, it does get pretty hard and not enjoyable. I think it would have been really good to have room temperature butter with this bread but unfortunately all they had was cold butter. Still I'm glad I tried it. Since it was our first time, we decided to go all out and order a few dishes to share. We decided to get the Korean fried cauliflower and the mac and cheese ball appetizers. Then for our mains, we got the Lunch Size of the Louisiana Chicken Pasta salad and the Chinese Chicken Salad. The Korean fried cauliflower was delicious and the fried mac and cheese balls were pretty good. I also really enjoyed the Louisiana Chicken Pasta. The flavour was really good and the chicken was very crispy. The Chinese chicken salad was pretty good, it was really nice to have something fresh alongside all of the heavier items on our table, but I'm not sure that I would get that one again. Since we were too full to order cheesecake for dessert, I may come back just to try the cheesecake next time. Overall, I'm really glad I came here and tried it out. It was a good first experience.

The service was friendly and patient as I was greeted upon entry and took my time perusing the menu. The restaurant was very clean and organized, not a lot of stuff on the walls and the bathrooms were in top shape which I appreciated. I ordered the classic double burger, with a side a fries and a cane cola. The burger was delicious! Toppings were fresh and tasty, and it made a mess with the sauces and condiments which is a sign of a great burger. It wasn't overly huge, a good size for my hands and they did get messy as I devoured this scrumptious burger. The Cane Cola was a nice accompaniment to try for the first time but not necessary to enjoy the burger. The fries were golden and crispy and quite a large portion for the price. I just wished the fry lengths were a bit longer as I received a lot of tiny pieces instead of longer potatoes which meant I was scooping them up in my hand to eat them. Not a dealbreaker, just an annoyance. The wait for the food wasn't very long, about 5-8 minutes and they brought the order to the table. I really enjoyed the burger and fries making this NOT just another burger spot but MTTBS = Must try this burger spot!

Impeccable. The staff was genuinely kind and attentive without being overbearing. I felt welcomed from the second I walked through the door. I ordered the Avocado Salmon Toast paired with the beautifully pink and perfectly named Pink Flamingo drink. My friend went for the Sweet Berry Waffle and a classic lemonade. Let me just say--the flavors did not disappoint. The salmon was fresh, creamy avocado was piled high, and the toppings were thoughtfully layered. My only tiny critique (and I say this with love): the toast itself was a little too crispy for my liking. It made the dish a bit tricky to cut into, and the texture leaned dry. Next time, I'll definitely ask for it untoasted or lightly toasted. A softer base would really let those flavors shine without the crunch competing. Now let's talk about that Pink Flamingo--WOW. It was tropical, sweet, and honestly gave me vacation-in-a-glass vibes. I almost ordered a second, but adulting (and budgeting) called me back to reality. That said, it's worth every sip! I snuck a few bites from my friend's Sweet Berry waffles, and yep--I'm getting that next time!! Light, fruity, tasty!! I can't wait to come back and try more from the menu. Who knows, maybe next time I'll get to sample a few more dishes Seriously though--support local and give this place a try. You'll leave full, happy, and already planning your next visit.

The highlight of the breakfast was the special menu collaboration with Sanagan Meat Locker. The savory cornbread pancakes were outstanding--served hot with crispy edges, layered with pimento cheese, and topped with butter and honey. Paired with the blueberry sausage from Sanagan, it was an unforgettable combination. I really loved this collaboration with Emma--it was creative, comforting, and absolutely delicious.

    Pre-pandemic we came here regularly for 3 reasons: 1) could accommodate our floor hockey teams and…read moreall our bags, 2) they are always playing the Raps, Leafs, or both and their TV placement is on point, and 3) the Mediterranean veggie nachos. Last night we went again for the first time in a long time and sadly the excellent veggie nachos are no longer a thing! We reluctantly ordered the vanilla replacement (i.e. regular nachos) and they were just not good. (Also, another smooth-baby-food-style guacamole place. Ugh.) On the upside, the deep fried pickles were excellent. And the servers were great too (i.e., friendly, attentive, and followed all COVID protocols). TLDR: Great for when your primary objective is to watch the game, but probably don't expect anything special food wise.

    Ordered a rushton burger and lamb chops for delivery. The burger was nice and thick, however by the…read moretime it got to my house the bottom bun was super soggy :( toppings were okay but I found it overall too dry and had to add some ketchup. Fries were skinny and okay. The lamb chops were disappointing. They charged $9 for just one bone! They were quite small and were finished in two bites.

    We went to dinner at The Rushton last night, a restaurant we used to genuinely enjoy and frequent…read morebecause we live around the corner. Unfortunately, the entire experience was absolutely terrible and incredibly disappointing. Our waitress -- a blonde woman with tattoos -- was pleasant at the beginning, but after taking our drink and appetizer order, she completely forgot about us. At one point, she even came back and asked if we wanted coffee and dessert before we had even received our main course. For a long stretch of time we had no cutlery, empty drinks, and were trying to order another cocktail, but every time she came to the table beside us, she completely ignored us. Eventually, I had to ask the bus boy to help us because our server had essentially disappeared. Ironically, he provided more service than our actual waitress did, and we ended up tipping him $20 because he was the only one helping us. I eventually had to go to the host stand myself just to ask where our food was. Our waitress later admitted she was "too busy inside the restaurant" to properly serve the patio tables outside. Eventually the manager brought our food and apologized for the delay, but that was it. Our waitress never once apologized for the experience or acknowledged how poor the service had been. To make matters worse, the food itself was awful. The shrimp were rubbery, bland, and had no flavour whatsoever. What made the entire experience even more frustrating was that our bill still came to $124 for what was honestly some of the worst service we have experienced in a very long time. We genuinely felt like we were inconveniencing the staff simply by being there. We are honestly shocked at how far this place has gone downhill. We loved having a neighbourhood spot like this, but after this experience, we will never return.
