    Meatball Sliders
    Megan Y.

    Went to The Cheesecake Factory and was reminded why it's still that girl. I was heartbroken to learn the Basque cheesecake and 50th anniversary cheesecake are gone (still grieving), but our server Jamal saved the night by recommending the lemon raspberry cheesecake. It's my mom's favorite, so obviously I had to get it. Zero regrets. So good. Ordered the Steak Diane (always hits) and tried the new meatball sandwich bites from the little bites menu. Love the smaller plates, tried a few, and everything was great! You still get bread and butter. Prices are solid. Service was excellent. Atmosphere is beautiful. Cheesecake Factory stays consistent, comforting, and delicious every single time

    We came here and ordered the Chicken Alfredo, Chicken Marsala, and the bowtie pasta. The food itself was pretty good overall. The Chicken Marsala had good flavor, and I liked the sauce: I actually wanted more of it. The Chicken Alfredo was decent, but they gave us boiled chicken mixed inside instead of the traditional grilled chicken placed on top, which was disappointing. It changed the texture and just didn't feel like the usual presentation. The bowtie pasta was kind of strange: it tasted like a bunch of random ingredients thrown together, with big chunks of garlic, peas, and tomatoes. It almost tasted like a weird carbonara mix. Not bad, just confusing. The biggest issue was the service. Our server honestly seemed like she didn't care about us at all. She never asked how our food was, didn't refill our water, and was barely around. We had to eat most of the meal without parmesan cheese because she didn't bring it until we literally had three bites left. When I wanted extra Chicken Marsala sauce, she was nowhere to be found: and we later found out she was on her break, which she never mentioned. It just felt very inattentive and unprofessional. The ambiance was typical Cheesecake Factory: busy, dim lighting, standard vibe. Nothing special but what you'd expect. Overall, I'm giving it 3 stars because the food was solid, but the service really brought the experience down. If the service had matched the quality of the food, it would've easily been higher.

    Came for lunch with family and received attentive service from Cassey. The food took a while to be served, but it was good. The Caramel Turtle Cheesecake was delicious as was Evelyn's Favorite Pasta.

    I was given a gift card from the holidays otherwise I have never been drawn to dining at Cheesecake Factory. Overall it was a good visit. Took a while to be greeted by waitress after being sat, but once ordered--food came quickly from kitchen. The beet and avocado was amazing--fresh and unique flavor with a sweet yogurt dressing. I also ordered the ahi poke nachos--not at all worth it. The amount of ahi on the order was minuscule and the tiny pieces that were there were about the size of my thumbnail. My son's mini burgers were outstanding. Their menu is huge so it's a good idea to review it before you go.

    This might only be my second or third time at this CF location, but I have to say the food, quality and service or excellent as well as the comfortable seating. Our server was especially helpful and attentive and to a great job of taking care of us even correcting a minor omission on one of our menu items. Quality and consistency are what one comes to CF for as well as the huge variety on the menu as it still baffles me how they are able to make so many different menu items and do such a good job with them. It truly isamazing. What those chefs do back there in the kitchen. Managing several booster tables for customers is no easy task as well, so I certainly appreciate all the good work of our server and making an enjoyable dinner experience.

    Bar area/some tables and booths that are available.

    Beautiful location! I went on a sunday night, the wait wasn't too long, only about 10 minutes. The staff was great, very patient and welcoming!! I loved the food and if you've ever been to the cheesecake factory you know the portions are amazing. I recommend the pizza style chicken parm if you want something filling that you can share! The chicken parm sandwich was amazing as well.

    I decided to join their rewards program . It doesn't operate on points. They just give rewards periodically. I received two in a month period. I missed one so decided to see if I could catch the next . The reward was for a slice of cake with any purchase . I decided to try the chocolate truffle cake and I purchased a peach lemonade drink to go with it. I ordered through the app. I was given a pickup time . When that time arrived I walked to the bakery counter.The cashier told me that she would prepare my drink . The lemonade was sweet and refreshing on my car ride it was a little under $6. The cake was decadent . It was large enough to cut into 3 pieces to share . It originally cost around $12.95 , but was free with rewards.

    Skinny Mojito

    My mojito had multiple dead leaves... Come on! What are we doing?? Drink was good, but are we serious??

    Im sure by now everyone knows this establishment. This location is big and beautiful. The bar area is gorgeous. Our food was delicious I got Mexican, my mom got the salmon and my partner got the steak . The menu can be overwhelming and make it harder to choose just one thing! Nonetheless, the food, drinks were great. The hostess were super friendly. Our waiter was rushing the entire time. I would say the wait staff needs to slow down and make sure they are not skipping over the customer service part. Our waiter barely asked if we needed anything, I kept having to find and ask him. Other than that, I probably will return. Can't beat there menu and desserts.

    Teriyaki Salmon. This dish is super flavorful.
    Darrylon E.

    Caught them as soon as the doors opened at this location. Service was chef's , the food was great. I had the Teriyaki Salmon and a spiked peach lemonade. I ordered a couple slices of cheesecake to go because, WHY NOT?! Ambiance was cool. I loved that it wasn't super crowded yet. It was the perfect stop between errands I had to run for the day. .

    I love The Cheesecake Factory for its huge menu and ability to accommodate large groups, which makes it the perfect spot for meeting up with my girlfriends. I also appreciate that reservations can be made well in advance online--such a convenience. Every time we've dined here, we've stayed for hours, and the staff has always been patient and attentive without ever rushing us. Service has consistently been friendly and welcoming. The atmosphere is upbeat and lively, making it a great choice for group gatherings. The complimentary bread is always a treat--especially the sourdough, which is my favorite. On this visit, I tried the Spinach and Cheese appetizer, which I'd rate about a 7/10. It was good, though I've had better versions elsewhere, I'd still order it again. My absolute favorite dish here, though, is the Korean Fried Chicken--highly recommended!

    Beet and Avocado Salad**

    Menus they have been serving a long time is always a classic. Love their jambalaya pastas and steak Diane. Although they ask you how you would like your meat cooked it's never brought out that way. But I still enjoy coming here anyway haha Fairly dark inside, can get super crowded during peak hours and busy during the weekends so try to avoid those days/times.

Uncle Fluffy has been on my list for like a gajillion years not even joking. my mother is a cheesecake fanatic.... and also an almond mom. so japanese cheesecake is that woman's dream: lighter, less dense, and less sweet than american cheesecakes (the higher protein content from fluffed egg whites also means u could make ur fellow gymbro into "making up" the calories too) the regular cheesecake was yum and the texture was divine: basically if you imagined a fluffy soufflé pancake and cheesecake had a baby. it didn't wow me though, especially since i love things on the sweeter side and it definitely wasn't. for a tiny $11 dessert, it didn't taste like i was indulging in a dirty little sweet treat. so i'll stick w my dense caloric diabetic cheesecakes from the freezer isle at vons. BUT TO EACH THEIR OWN! my mom ATE THAT UNC UPPPPP. she ADORED the cheesecake. also service was quick and sweet. uncle fluffy def has daddy potential xoxo ;P

But it completely surprised me in the best way possible. The crepe was packed with ingredients like crabmeat sticks, avocado, baby spinach, masago, seaweed salad, cucumber, edamame, crunchy shallots, spicy mayo, and sesame dressing, and everything worked really well together. It had a really fresh flavor from the vegetables and seaweed salad, while the spicy mayo and sesame dressing added a creamy, savory richness. The crunchy shallots also gave it a nice texture that made each bite more satisfying. It ended up feeling light but still really filling. The workers were really nice, and it was cool seeing that some of them were UCR students too, which made the place feel even more connected to the area and student community.
