I appreciate Jeffrey W., who serves me with a great attitude in a professional manner. Keep doing amazing work, partner.

Me and the crew finished up a long day of field location work in the Portland area, so I figured we'd have a nice dinner. I saw that there was a Cheesecake Factory location here and I've only heard about the place, but never been. I heard that they have a huge menu, like a book to choose from. OK, I figure with 5 different people, they could all find something they'd like to eat here. The interior looks kinda on the upscale side. I guess this place isn't any sort of bargain dining, but we got the expense account, so it's all good. We get seated by our friendly host. Our equally friendly server takes our drink orders. Wow, this is some menu! All kind of stuff, from dinner salads, meats, burgers and tons of dessert choices. I didn't wanna just get a common burger, so I ordered a sort of meatloaf thing. The other girl on the crew ordered a salad and some one else got the burger sliders. Everyone just ordered whatever they wanted, and I'm OK with that. I think if I come back, I'd order something else though. It wasn't bad, just not spectacular. Our food come out in not too much time. They must have a huge kitchen to service a big menu like this. All of our food was tasty and I got no complaints from the crew. It was good to go out to a little more upscale place, but not too pretentious fancy like some French place, and definitely better than a Chinese buffet! Oh Yeah, we all got dessert, cause how could you not at a place called Cheesecake Factory. Yep, pretty decadent and tasty desserts. I'd sure come back here. We don't have any Cheesecake Factories where I live. read more

The Cheesecake Factory as it exists in the Portland metro area is hilarious. This food-obsessed, but sparsely populated region is geographically remote enough that most major casual dining chains either plant a handful of locations in its suburbs or bypass it altogether. Despite the fact that the city itself had two full malls downtown until just recently (RIP Lloyd Center), they weren't the type of places that were going to throw a TGI Friday's at customers. Pioneer Square was more likely to encourage you to pop into Din Tai Fung after dropping four figures at Tiffany's. There are exactly two locations of The Cheesecake Factory in Portland, and this is the most heavily trafficked one. Located in the area's most thriving/least dying mall, this Cheesecake Factory lures the kind of business traveler and transplanted suburbanite who seeks comfort in the familiarity of its menu's multiple pages. Its entire purpose its to serve food for every palate that tastes the same in Tigard as it would in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts; Atlanta's Buckhead neighborhood; Wayne, N.J.; or at Caesars in Las Vegas. The stained glass and columns are from a kit, the foods are pre-prep, the uniforms are, well, uniform. You don't go here because you're looking for a new experience: You go because you want something you know and either don't have to think about or have memories of that aren't tied to this new, strange place. However, because there are only two for hundreds of miles (the next closest location is Tacoma), it's treated like Disneyland. The family and I were unfortunate enough to be roped into a trip here by extended family who were staying near the mall, and the crowds and lines were akin to people trying to get into Ivar's on a sunny summer day in Seattle when a cruise ship had just pulled in. Considering the baseline, chain-restaurant cuisine you're being offered, there's absolutely no reason to fight this kind of congestion unless you're feeling particularly homesick for your local mall. I have had friends in multiple major cities who've sworn by Cheesecake Factory for various reasons, and this latest trip just confirmed what I thought then: I don't get it. If you have the privilege of living in a place where not only is this not your only option, but where chains like Chili's, Outback, TGI Friday's and their ilk have been actively dissuaded from setting up shop because of the quality of mid-range food offered, exercise that privilege and go anywhere by here. Maybe start nearby at Banning's and work from there. read more

Ordered buffalo blast, they are amazing! Perfect crispy crunchy with the taste of chicken, buffalo sauce and cheese in the center. Delicious! Also got the oriental chicken salad. The flavors are fantastic! The lettuce was a bit guilty, but I won't let that against them. Also a shout out to our server, Justin. He was on the ball with everything. read more

The Cheesecake Factory is a classic! The place of the menu book, brown bread, and cheesecake slices that equate to your daily caloric limit. There is sure to be something for everyone's tastes with generous portions and endless flow of hot carbs upon request. We came to meet friends on the Friday after Christmas during peak lunch time and were able to be seated without much of a wait. You check in at round hostess stand and you get taken to your table from there. Service from hostess to our waiter were minimally friendly with a mildly chaotic underlying energy due to the busy timing. Although our waiter was patient with us as we navigated the huge book they called a menu to decide on our craving of the day. I appreciated the consistency of the vibe of the restaurant as a chain since you know exactly what to expect from the large columns, stained glass dividers, to the wicker chairs. It has been awhile since our last visit so we were excited for the free pumpernickel and sourdough bread. Unfortunately they had to replenish their supply but that meant hot fresh bread (albeit one was a little burnt). I always get the Renee's Special with the chicken salad sandwich, mixed salad, and soup (clam chowder this time) for its deliciousness and value - although the price keeps increasing it's still worth it since I always have leftovers. My toddler got the kid's meal roadside sliders with fruit and enjoyed that. Our friends really liked the cheeseburger spring roll (an unlikely but tasty fusion) and the favorite of the day was definitely the spicy chicken chipotle pasta. The chicken eas crispy and the sauce was the right balance between tasty and spicy. The price tags are higher but the portions are generous. This is always my stop when shopping at this mall. You will just have to do a few laps around the mall after all the food you eat here and don't forget to get a slice (or 2) or cheesecake to go from their dedicated cheesecake takeout counter! read more

This could be so nice to enjoy the wonderful turnkey burger and chase it down with the legendary cheesecake.... but not here. the atmosphere is just short of a rave. it is a circus. even when you have reservations. the lines snake though the middle, people talking loudly into speaker phones. You get to your table, that is squeezed between others and the noise is so loud we have to yell or text to converse. read more

its a shame there aren't many decent restaurants located within the mall, but the cheesecake factory is definitely a nostalgic one for many locals. the menu and/or crowd on certain days can seem very overwhelming - but they have a wide array of dishes to pick from. you can find western, italian, asian, mexican cuisine items as you browse the menu. they also intentionally section off some lower calorie/carb/gf items on their skinny menu. portions i have found are quite hefty, so expect to likely take some home! whether you are stopping in for a quick drink amidst shopping, or dining in, this environment is very family friendly and cozy. the servers are professional, and do well with managing the chaos when it gets busy! read more

The Cheesecake Factory - Hot Spinach and Cheese Dip - American Near Me - Tigard, Oregon

Food~Bread and Butter is always a plus for me (only care for the brown). Didn't want fill up on bread so for an app The warm crab dip w/ toasted bread was delicious (it wasn't piping but, the name spoke for itself)! It was our first time ordering Evelyn Pasta (the sauce was super watery and, no flavor whatsoever). We aren't sure how it supposed to taste but, when it lacked flavor (it's a no for me but, the Bow~Tie noodles were very good~cooked al dente/buttery). We decided on Shrimp Alfredo Linguine (adding one chicken breast it's cost $10 dollars). It was better but, the sauce also was watery (normally thicker) and, I had to add salt and pepper (not impressed at all the pasta this go around) it's definitely a 3/5 because both entrees were very disappointing! Service~We had 2 waitress due to shift change we went during lunch but, going into dinner. But, both ladies were absolutely amazing and very accommodating when needed! Ambiance~The vibes were good but, I wish they would consider adjusting the lighting it feels like a dungeon at times. It's a busy restaurant to expect it be loud but, you can still hold a conversation. It's very clean establishment (especially the restrooms) and, it's plenty of parking this location is at The Washington Sq mall. read more

This year we decided to celebrate a birthday at our local Cheese Cake Factory. As you walk in you are warmly welcomed by their staff. It was not very busy that evening. We had a very nice waitress that greeted us and initially seemed on top of things. We unfortunately we had an average experience . We ordered the Steak Diane, this was the best of the three dishes, I would highly recommended this dish, the sauce and mushrooms were perfect as well as the Steak. From their the other two dishes were fair, the Louisiana Chicken Pasta, looked very appealing, the pasta was fair, not a lot of flavor, the Chicken had a nice breading but did not have a lot of flavor, nice presentation but lacked much sauce with so much Chicken, the dish that was very disappointing was the Spicy Crispy Chicken Sandwich, the chicken was dry and not much sauce on the Chicken, it was at the level of a fast food dish. Over all the cost of the food did not match the taste, on top of this we waiting around 15-20 for the dinner to be served, without many folks in the restaurant . Thankfully the cheesecake slices that we ordered where all amazing, they were so good that I forgot to take pictures. I will also share that during other visits we have had much better experiences , even within the bar area for happy hour. read more

On a recent trip to Portland took the Family to to this location for dinner. Wait time was 30 minutes which is not bad for Cheesecake Factory. We got sat in the back which is not a great place to sit as the sounds from the kitchen are overwhelming. Our server was friendly but inattentive. We barely saw her throughout the evening. I got the chicken parm pizza and I would not recommend this. The chicken is ok if a bit under seasoned. The pasta that comes with and is supposed to have an Alfredo sauce was so bland and had no sauce on it. read more

Their lunch specials used to be really a great deal but now the portions are ingredients are greatly reduced. This is the Renee's special - the turkey sandwich is now on a half of a hotdog bun. It used to be a true half sandwich. The salad is just leaf lettuce in balsamic dressing. It used to have onions and tomatoes. The soup was okay but nothing spectacular. Still, there is a lot of other items we enjoy but today was a somewhat disappointment compared to our usual meals here. read more

From the moment we were seated, everything about our visit to The Cheesecake Factory was fantastic! We started with their classic brown bread, warm, soft, and slightly sweet, it's honestly reason enough to visit. Then came the Mac and Cheese Bites, and wow these were chef's kiss! Perfectly crispy on the outside, gooey and rich on the inside. A decadent start. For my main course, I went with the Chicken Bellagio, and it did not disappoint. It was a massive portion but every bite was flavorful. Crispy chicken, basil pasta, and prosciutto. And of course, we couldn't leave without dessert. The Chocolate Tuxedo Cheesecake was the grand finale, smooth, rich, and layered to perfection. Overall, the food came out fast, our server was friendly and efficient, and everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. I'll be dreaming about those mac and cheese bites until the next visit! read more

Good atmosphere for families. Great good and drink selections. Oh yea, and they have cheesecakes.

I love Cheesecake Factory! Was very happy they had one close to Portland. We made the trek. Our server was amazing and very funny. He was also from Spokane and was super attentive. Everything we ordered was amazing and had good flavor. The lighting sucks and we had to use our phone flashlights but despite that we had a wonderful dinner. And the cheesecakes are always to die for. We got Tiramisu and Smores this time and both were fabulous. read more

We haven't been to the Cheesecake Factory in a while, but we decided to celebrate our almost two-year-old's second birthday there. Our server, Bri (I'm not sure how her name was spelled), was incredibly friendly and attentive. She made sure we were comfortable and kept checking on us, especially since we had two toddlers. It can get chaotic with toddlers. We noticed that she had gone to check on our food when she saw our little ones wiggling. One thing that surprised us was what happened to the crayons and coloring pages? This is on the Cheesecake Factory. Overall, the ambiance was relaxed and enjoyable, with other families with kids. read more

I like Cheesecake Factory when I'm not sure what I want to eat, when I feel like spending 30 minutes going through a huge menu, like I'm reading a short novel. I actually love that they have a big menu. Whatever I am craving, it's probably on there. My bf and I were done shopping for the night and didn't want to think too hard on where to eat. And I was craving pasta, so we came here, since we were already at the mall. It was pretty busy on a Saturday evening, which I expected. It was about a 50 minute wait, so we waited for a spot to open up at the bar. From when we got there to when we finally got to place our order, it was an hour. I ordered the Chicken Chipotle Pasta and my bf ordered the Jambalaya. The pasta was good and satisfying. I finished mine, and my bf had leftovers. The young waiter (Kevin K?) was so busy working the bar area by himself, but he was great; made the long wait for everything okay. read more

Our host and server were great and we felt at home in this classic establishment. read more

this restaurant has been my favorite since I was four years old and I've never had a worse experience here than I did tonight. My fiancé is allergic to onions and we specifically asked on the roadside sliders to not have any and told our waitress he was allergic. He was sick the entire dinner in the bathroom. The manager told us that the onions are cooked on the same flat top as the burgers. The second round still hurt his stomach. We had 2 martinis each and the manager was screaming at me saying I was doing too much because I had "two martinis" (as you should on a Saturday night") but when I complained to manager he said that I needed to have my drink taken away when I stood up for my fiancé. He was accusing me of being "erratic" and I told him I was just defending my fiancé and how rude he was being. The manager there was completely out of pocket and I told him multiple times how disrespectful he was for saying that just because they got a complaint. He was complaining to another worker about me and they both stared at me and when I called them out, he said I was insane. As a manger, that should be the last thing you say to a customer. It pains me this was my favorite restaurant and I tried to show it to my fiancé, but I ended up leaving in tears . read more

I went to the cheesecake factory on Friday around 6 pm. The restaurant was already crowded, so I decided takeout order. I ordered Beet and *Avocado Salad:Glazed Beets, Quinoa, Avocado, Fresh Orange, Arugula, and Honey-Yogurt Sauce. *Stuffed Mushrooms:Fontina and Parmesan Cheese, Garlic and Herbs in a Wine Sauce. *Spicy Tuna:Ahi Tuna on Crispy Sushi Rice with Ginger and Green Onion. *And Original Classic Cheesecake. The original cheesecake from Cheese Factory, which I hadn't eaten in decades, was smooth, light, and delicious. I liked the beef and avocado salad because it had a great flavor. The other two dishes were also perfect for snacks. It was good to try the cheesecake factory! read more

We made a reservation online and visited The Cheesecake Factory in Tigard, OR. Upon our timely arrival, we were neither greeted nor welcomed, and we ended up waiting over 15 minutes to be seated. To make use of our time, we purchased a gift card for friends while waiting. Our server appeared to be generally unhappy, though it was unclear why. It took a noticeably long time for her to bring us water and bread and to take our orders. We ordered our long-time favorite dish, the Bang Bang Chicken & Shrimp, but unfortunately, it was a big disappointment this time. The dish was markedly different in a not-so-good way compared to what we've enjoyed before. Having ordered this dish more than 20 times, this was by far the worst experience. The presentation was poor, and the portion of chicken and shrimp was significantly smaller--just four small pieces each. I understand the impact of inflation and shrinkflation, but this fell far short of even minimal expectations. To make matters worse, the dish didn't taste good, possibly due to a lack of sufficient ingredients. The only ingredient that seemed plentiful was sweet peas, which were overwhelming and detracted from the overall flavor. In summary, our experience at the Tigard location was disappointing. read more

I came here on a Thursday during lunch time. I was seated right away and my server was kind and attentive. I ordered the bang bang chicken and shrimp and a strawberry margarita. This was my first time going to a Cheesecake Factory in about 5 years. I don't know if the quality has gone down since or this specific location was just not good but my food tasted horrible. I usually get this same dish, but I remember the quality being so much better. Everything tasted stale and as if it came from a frozen package. The rice was a little mushy. The shrimp was so small kind of like the shrimp you find in the frozen food section at the grocery store. The vegetables, especially the zucchini was irregularly chopped and barely chopped through all the way. And the coconut shreds were all clumped up. This experience made me want to avoid all other Cheesecake Factory locations for a really long time. read more

What has happened to the quality here? We live very close and get takeout often. Last night we got the bbq chicken salad - our go to- and not sure what kind of supposed to be chicken it was but it was absolutely inedible (pure white and very wet w almost no texture ). My husbands first bite was a chewy clear thing and we ended up throwing the whole thing out. The one star is for cheesecake. It's always good but we will never order food from here again. read more

We were there for a later lunch on Saturday around 1:30. They're still busy. We got seated after 15 minutes wait. It took a while for the Waitress to come serve us, but I totally understand that because she's very busy. Food here is always serve in a huge portion. We ordered Monte Cristo and calamari. Calamari taste really fresh when they first come out, but after taking it home, theyre kind of chewy. Of course, I always have to end the meal with a slice of cheesecake. The cheesecake looks smaller than before, but still taste good. read more

It's my birthday! But no free cheesecake on your birthday unless you sign up the day before. Lame. Menu is incredibly overwhelming and the prices aren't the cheapest on most the menu. It would be great if you had less options and better quality. The salad we had was saturated in dressing and it was a skinny salad and too much dressing to be good. But the cheesecake is always good and shareable. Service was good as always, Mat was our server and he even brought me a scoop of ice cream with whip and a candle! You rock Mat! read more

We have always dined here, not sure why I haven't write a review until today. And it's a good thing because I would have rated this place 2/5 in the past. We come here anyway because it's convenient, right in the mall. I was never impressed with this restaurant, until now! We came by on an early Sunday afternoon, waited for 30 mins because we don't have a reservation. Once seated, server did not make us wait too long, took our orders and served our bread. We ordered 2 appetizers: Poke Nachos and Lettuce Wrap, both very very good! 5/5. I had their White Chicken Chili, this is very flavorful! And it's only 650 calories! Easily a 5/5. Hubby had the Pasta da Vinci: I keep stealing his food. Excellent! Rated 5/5 Son opted for the SkinnyLicious Chicken Burger - he finished his chicken but did not like the salad that came with it. He never ate it. He rated chicken burger 4/5. They have separate bathrooms for men and women. Highly recommend this place. read more

So sad, my experiences with them are getting worse and worse :( I ordered take out but it's not just because of that. First, the bread we got was so hard. I question if the bread was made a couple days ago. We tried microwaving and all but it was so stiff and hard. It was very disappointing. I also ordered Pasta Da Vinci. Every time I go to the Cheesecake Factory, for the past 6-7 years, I'd get the same dish. Because of that, I know it was not the same as before. First off, the flavor and seasoning changed drastically. Online it said: "Sauteed Chicken, Mushrooms and Onions in a Delicious Madeira Wine Sauce Tossed with pasta." 1. The chicken are now little diced pieces of chicken. It has a frozen/not thawed well taste to it and it wasn't seasoned other than a little bit of salt. It's dry and tough. In the past the pieces were bigger, flavorful, and tender. 2. Mushrooms: there used to be a few different kinds of mushrooms in this dish so you get different flavors and textures. Now, it's just one kind and I bet the cheapest kind but they only give it to you sparingly. 3. Onions: I forgot if I ate any onions...that's not good 4. Madeira wine: no wine smell at all. I'm not an expert but I just know that the taste and smell was not the same. It wasn't fragrant like before. I guess the stars went to my Godiva cheesecake. Looks a bit smaller but the flavor was still about the same. I get with inflation but their dishes were quite $$$ now. I may use that money for something else a little more consistent. read more
