    Complimentary birthday sundae
    Cherry O.

    Stopped by recently to use my free birthday cheesecake reward since I just celebrated my birthday, and I'm so glad I did. We had such a great experience thanks to our awesome server, Adrian. He took our order and made sure everything came out just right. He checked in a few times to top off our drinks and even brought boxes when he noticed we were getting full. Super friendly, attentive, and really made us feel taken care of. He even surprised me with a little sundae to wish me a happy belated birthday, which was such a nice touch! We ordered the Factory Nachos with chicken -- always one of our favorites. The portions are huge and super satisfying. We also got the Chicken Romano, but went with the lunch portion this time since we knew the nachos alone are filling enough. The Chicken Romano is also an entree we always get here. It also never disappoints! We just love the creamy marinara sauce on the pasta. It's so good! And the chicken is breaded and flattened super thin which i love bc it's nice and crispy and full of flavor. Everything about that dish is so good. For dessert, we couldn't pass up our go-to: the White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake. It never disappoints! The chocolate graham cracker crust with the creamy cheesecake swirled with raspberry and white chocolate is just perfect. The whipped cream on top ties it all together. It's the one flavor we always come back to when we can't decide -- a classic favorite for a reason.

    Cheesecake
    Marsela M.

    This is the third time that I have visited the cheesecake factory, even though it was extremely busy, we barely had a five-minute wait for a table, which was impressive on its own. Then we only had to wait maybe 10 minutes before receiving our food. The restaurant is absolutely humongous, and it was fascinating to see how well everything runs with so many employees working together--despite the crowd, nothing ever felt behind or chaotic. The portion sizes are unbelievable; my husband ordered the chicken strips and received a plate of ten of them! While waiting for our food, we were served bread and butter, and not just any bread--a fancy baguette with warm butter, which was a really nice touch. The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, and welcoming, and it was refreshing to experience such genuinely positive customer service. And although I was too full to try dessert, the beautiful display of cheesecakes was stunning--so many varieties, all looking absolutely delicious. Overall, it was a great dining experience from start to finish!

    Chicken Potsticker appetizer
    Laura S.

    Huge portions! Oh my goodness get here at happy hour and order all you drinks and specials at one time if necessary before 6:01! I had a Long Island ice tea for $8.50 and potsticker appetizer. I like that they have a skinny version of the long Island. The potsticker was very good, well done and the chicken inside was so tender. The sauce was a little too sweet for my liking but was very good. My daughter had the nachos which were so big two people could easily share. Our server was very nice, the restaurant was clean. Everything was rather good. I'm going to knock 2 stars off only because we got here about 5:45pm and ordered as soon as our server came; happy hour is 4 to 6pm. Then I requested another drink but because it was after 6pm they would not honor my other drink at happy hour price. Had I known that I would have ordered 2 drinks at first! I could understand if we arrived after 6 in the first place... but anyway I think they could have let us slide since we were clearly here before 6pm. But that's my option and that's why I removed 2 starts. Sometimes you have to compromise a little... plus they would have got a way better tip and more stars because I would have been feeling pretty good after the second long Island :) !

    Fried Macaroni and Cheese
    Ann C.

    It's been at least 12 years since my first review, still as good as it was way back then. My teen daughter and I had a girls day and stopped for dinner at Cheesecake Factory. We were seated almost immediately and ordered drinks and an app. We had the fried macaroni and cheese bites and a steak sandwich (which I no longer see on the enormous menu) to share. The fried macaroni and cheese bites were so delish! And the steak sandwich .... well, we were taking about it for several days after we ate it. We took a piece of cheesecake home with us to share later. We didn't eat it all that night and it was still yummy the next day. It's a little loud but the people watching is awesome!

    French dip cheeseburger
    Amy D.

    I'm always skeptical of mall restaurants, but this one really delivered! Loved the service at this Cheesecake Factory. Our waiter was friendly, attentive, and quick despite how busy it was on a Sunday. The menu is massive, but every dish we ordered was perfect. And, of course, the raspberry white chocolate cheesecake was the perfect sweet ending. -AT

    We will never come back here again, I've been coming here for 15 years with my boyfriend and today is the worst it's ever been we asked for a booth they stuck us behind the wall in a small table my food was very fishy so they returned it, and I got a burger. The burger bun was so hard. My tooth almost chipped asked for the manager. He came by half hour later we told him everything that happened and all she could say is oh well this is the first I heard this happened. Hopefully it won't happen next time. Goodbye. See you well Brian because of you, we won't be back and how the hell are you a manager with that attitude you can't even accommodate someone that came in there spent $100 a lunch for a lunch for two people and everything was wrong that we got in hard and half of the stuff was missing and all you could say as well come in next time just ask for me hopefully your lunch won't be as bad as it was today . Who says that who doesn't try to accommodate people

    Fried Calamari
    Beth A.

    This place is busy! We reserved a table at 12pm on a Saturday but since the restaurant opens at 11am, most people were getting seated right away. If you plan to eat any later highly recommend reserving in advance. You have to sign up for the free Cheesecake Factory membership to reserve through their website. Our waitress was friendly but very busy. Our free bread for the table didn't come out until we got our entrees. The food itself is great and with generous portions, I always leave this restaurant with leftovers. There were other staff there to fill our waters, but we had to flag our waitress down to order our entrees and dessert. Although the appetizers came out quickly we had to wait a bit for entrees and the dessert. Our total time there was 12pm until about 1:45pm with appetizers, entrees and desserts. The inside is the classic Cheesecake Factory design with pretty colored glass lights and the orange walls that look like an Italian Villa. Food may seem pricey but they give nice portions.

    Reese's Peanut Butter Chocolate Cake Cheesecake
    Alexandra A.

    This review is based on a carry out order. My fiance and I were craving cheesecake and didn't want to make it ourselves so off to Cheesecake Factory we went! This location is inside woodfield mall and parking is plentiful. It may be challenging at times depending how busy it is, rest assured with a little bit of patience there will be a spot for ya. We ordered online for pick up and the process was easy and fast. Prices are reasonable and with 2 slices our total came out to under $25. Once we picked up our order it was securely sealed and came with forks and napkins. We shared a slice of the flourless Godiva and a slice of the Reese's peanut butter. Both were rich, flavorful and very filling. The Godiva also came with a piece of wrapped chocolate on the side. Whipped cream is also placed within the to go containers which was light and the perfect amount of creamy. If we had to only pick 1 we'd go with the reese's due to there being several layers that provided different flavors.

    Had a great time! I ordered the Buffalo Blast and added French fries with blue cheese--absolutely loved the blue cheese sauce! I wish I had received a bit more of it to-go, though. The passion fruit margarita was tasty, but a little too expensive for what it was--felt like it had more juice than liquor. Overall, a good experience with tasty food, but a few small tweaks would make it even better!

    Spicy Crispy Chicken Sandwich
    Beth Ann P.

    A day of shopping should be rewarded with a good bite to eat. We stopped in for lunch an we were seated immediately. Our server acknowledged us promptly to take our beverage order. I ordered from the "skinny" menu and had the crispy chicken sandwich with a side salad. The chicken was good and the vinaigrette dressing on the salad was delicious. My mom ordered the lunch special flatbread with a Cesar salad. She loved hers as well. The restaurant was warm and cozy. Service was great. I'm only sad we didn't safe room for their delightful cheesecake.

    Mehul P.

    The burger was money, plus all the fixings. I can't wait to try the factory nachos, but next time because I got the calamari instead which was spot on I wish they had Melinda's Fire Roasted Garlic & Habenero pepper sauce & condiment, but they they only had your standard sour vinegar Tabasco sauce. I want to try the Shrimp, but am repelled by any mayo-based sauce. I wonder if I ask for Shrimp sauce instead what would happen. Their bread loaves are crisp & soft but you definitely need more butter & I love them warm & fresh like that, might have ask for cream cheese but that might be pushing it. I heard CAKE stock did pretty well in 2025...

    Always a solid choice at Woodfield Mall. Great, fresh food and friendly service. Always a good stop before or after holiday shopping.

    Long Island Iced Tea
    AnnaLynn S.

    Long Island iced tea here is great. The service is awesome. Came in needing some cold tomato juice right away and they got it very fast. It wasn't very busy. Very happy with this restaurant despite it being extremely expensive. Ok, it's expensive as all hell. I honestly question if any of the food product is worth what they charge. Alas with a monopoly on malls, and cheesecake there isn't much else one can do. Expect to pay about $50 a person here. Definitely not cheap. Special occasions only!

It seemed like they had it made due to beating their top selling plate. The chicken had a rubbery feeling, for sure did not meet the hype. We ordered it and it was served very fast. In the other hand, their "Pesto Cavatappi" was served warmed and you could tell it was just made. The chicken on this dish tasted very good and the texture was very different from the Chicken Parm. I would recommend this dish instead of their number one as it was told to us by the server. We ordered two cappuccinos and their Flourless Chocolate Cake. Both cappuccinos were very milky and not warm enough. The dessert was really good but it also took a while to get it. We were half way done with our cappuccinos. Price - I feel they are priced too high for a chicken dish and pasta. Although it is a good portion it is still chicken and pasta. It was $31 for the chicken parm and $26 for the Cavatappi. The dessert was $12 It was a busy day but they should still keep their standards and serve food with the right temperature. I will give it another change for sure.

Sadly, my steak that I requested be cooked to medium was over cooked and well done. So I waited for the waitress to pop again, and notified her of the cook on the steak. She took it back and returned 15 minutes later with another steak cooked to medium. During the 15 minute wait, she brought me out these delicious hand-cut potato chips and hand made dip. I shared with the table and everybody thought the same - YUMMY! We really enjoyed those. Definitely try them if you come here! My steak was alright.

    Our Experience was good, not great…read more We did some research about all of the local ice cream places and our kids picked Kurimu because it seemed to be the most unique. Initial impression wasn't great... The smell was really the main reason why. The shop itself definitely had a smell, I can't really describe what it was but it was not pleasant. There was one person working, he was polite but did not have much personality. Most of our questions were met with him telling us that we ordered "over there" as he points to the register. It just did not have a very welcoming energy. Only of our kids got ice cream as the flavors did not catch them like they had hoped it would. My Youngest got a coconut ice cream with waffle cone (she loved it), it was a subtle coconut flavor but very refreshing. My oldest daughter got a match drink w boba, hers was also good but not her favorite. I ended up getting the soft serve mix (Tofu/Black Sesame) which was definitely unique and I did enjoy it but no one else i was with did. After checking out, we were offered free stickers which was a nice gesture and I talked about their Japanese Car theme which seemed to liven up the man working momentarily.
