| - Me and my family visited The Cheesecake Factory for the first time tonight and was pleasantly surprised. First off, we are not from Charlotte and we do not have a Cheesecake factory near our house. We are Big Bang Theory super fans so when we saw it we knew we had to try it. If you are like us and have never been or saw one other than on the show, then you will be in for a big surprise too!
Atmosphere: We arrived around 8:30pm on a Sunday night. The wait was minimal even though it was pretty busy. We requested outside seating since it was a perfect night for it, and were escorted right out. Tables were nice, and had a small candle on it for a nice little touch. The building the restaurant is located in is very nice as well. Very upscale looking and a classy place overall. Much different vibe and style than was in the show. ( Hang with me through the BBT show comments, I am sure others are wondering the same as we were. ) 8/10
Menu and Price Point: As most others have mentioned the menu is very very extensive. You would be really hard pressed to not find something that you like. Very detailed which I like because I am a picky eater, and nicely laid out considering the size of the menu. As for price, I got the Penne, My wife got the Chicken and Biscuits (think chicken pot pie), and my daughter just wanted cheese sticks. We also got 1 piece of the Oreo Dream cheesecake and the total bill was 53.00 and some change. Not too bad considering the portions are huge and the food was very tasty. 7/10
Service: When we first walked in the greeter was not super friendly like most places of that caliber but, when we were seated things changed. Our waiter was extremely nice and super helpful. He was very attentive despite being pretty busy, and took the time to talk to us and offer suggestions. He even addressed my daughter who is 10, which most of the time wait staff just look at us for her order. I liked that and i think she did too. 8/10
Food: The food was very good. Like i mentioned above my daughter got an appetizer for her main meal which was the Cheesesticks. She liked them and even made the comment she wished there was more. On a couple they were overcooked a little but she didnt complain and just peeled off the coating. My wife had the Chicken and Biscuits and she really enjoyed it and gives it a 8/10. She could only eat about half a quarter of it due to the sheer amount she was given. I got the Penne Pasta, and it was cooked perfect for me. It was a little short on sauce but really was very tasty. I did add a little salt, and I asked the waiter for some Parmesan cheese and he brought out a block and grated some fresh for me right at the table. Im a big guy and I couldn't eat it all due to the portion size. 8/10 for me on the pasta.
I will definitely be back for me on my next visit.
P.S.... Haven't tried the cheesecake yet but its a massive slice.
