Giving a perspective of somebody who has never been to any cheesecake factory ever and have never tried their cheesecakes.
We did a takeout for cheesecake on an evening. We got two cheesecakes and I didn't like any of them. We got Red Velvet and Peanut something and I found both of them to be overly sweet, the sugar took all the flavour and none of the other flavours could thrive.
Going by my previous experiences with cheesecake, I am under the impression that every good cheesecake has a sour touch to it, its the balance of sweet and a little sour that makes the cheesecake tasty to me but I didn't find that taste in any of the offerings that I have tried.
