This was our first time and it was amazing! We ordered the nachos for an appetizer. I got the parmesan crusted chicken. My kids got the Mac and cheese burgers. All the meals were so delicious and the portions were very large. Then for dessert we got white chocolate raspberry truffle cheesecake and tiramisu. The restaurant was so pretty, and our waitress was sweet and attentive. Over all a wonderful experience on our family vacation!

I guess if you’ve been to one cheesecake factory, you’ve been to them all. The food was very good and our waiter was awesome. As with other locations it was very dark inside. Regardless it is a good place to bring large groups since there are so many options and also some nice options for celebration dinners.

Google needs to make it possible for me to give this a sixth star. I started with the avocado egg rolls.... which were amazing. My entree was the chicken riesling. Chicken brest cooked perfectly with a mushroom / bacon sause and angel hair pasta. It was the 1st time eating this, but it won't be the last. Sooooooo freaking good. Also pictured is the wife's skinny tacos and the kids chicken tenders.

I had a delightful lunch at The Cheesecake Factory with my wife. She opted for the healthy and delicious salad with grilled salmon, which was both fresh and satisfying. As for me, I ventured into the realm of crispy brussels sprouts slathered in maple syrup – while they weren't as crispy as expected, the sweet and savory combination was undeniably delightful, even if it required a post-meal insulin boost. We also embarked on a culinary adventure with the corn ribs, a unique and flavorful way to enjoy corn, as long as you avoid my rookie mistake of trying to devour the inedible cob portion. They were generously seasoned and sauced, providing a burst of exciting flavors. To cap off our indulgent meal, we shared a classic slice of cheesecake with extra strawberries. The richness of the cheesecake and the sweetness of the strawberries made for a heavenly combination. Though we may need to skip a few meals tomorrow to make up for the 1,200 calories packed into that single slice, it was absolutely worth it. Our lunch at The Cheesecake Factory was a memorable culinary experience, and we look forward to returning for more delectable delights in the future.

Saturday 730pm mid October table for 3. It was busy!! I'm glad we had reservations. We arrived 20 minutes early and were seated within 15 minutes! Our waitress did a terrific job. She was knowledgeable, pleasant, and friendly. The food was mouthwatering! I recommend the Truffle Honey chicken or the Crispy Pineapple chicken and shrimp. Thanks, Cheesecake Factory, for getting it right!

Wow. All I can say is whoever runs this place is on it. The sense of urgency was incredible. The food was fresh and HOT. We love the street corn and have been known to order 3 orders with my wife and daughter 🤣😂🤣 Last night on the way to Bonita we stopped for dinner. The VIBE was good. The restaurant was clean. It was absolutely packed. But we got in quickly. All the servers were attentive. Even the people who bus the tables were friendly and very hard working. We just moved to Tampa from Chicago and frequent Cheesecake probably 3-4 times a month. Over the years the food quality is hit or miss. When its good we are all 😋 when its not there is always cheesecake lol. The Brandon location is lackluster and feels like food at the mall. Bay Street / International Plaza similar. We also had Calamari and Fettuccini Alfredo. Both very good. My wife said the calamari was the best she has had. We eat out often. Plus just moved here from Chicago so know what great food taste like. It was crispy and perfectly seasoned. She ate everything but the bodies. 😳 Freaks us both out. 🤣😂🤣 But again the Sarasota location was on point in all areas. Speed of service, cleanliness, attentive server, food quality and all around welcoming environment with a team that felt like they enjoyed working there. A+ Nice job. I have been to probably 30 Cheesecakes in my life and this one is by far the best. Thank you for great evening.

Great menu and variety. All the dishes we ordered were great, staff was very pleasant and observant. This place seems very popular, we waited around 30-40 minutes for our table. Luckily they can notify you remotely so you can use the mall while you wait.
