I'm normally not a fan of The Cheesecake Factory, but I have to say, they must have stepped it up since I've been there last. I'd never been to this one, but it is closer to home, so decided to take the family here for dinner.
Parking wasn't too bad. We parked in the Parking Garage B right off Bonneville. Took us maybe 5-8 minutes to find parking and we walked across the street from the parking garage to the restaurant. The restaurant has valet too so if you prefer not to deal with the parking, I highly advise. The front entrance to the restaurant is off of the street side across from the garage. You can also enter from another door that is deeper inside the mall, but then you have to walk through the dining room to get to the hostess area at the front.
For appetizers, the family and I ordered the Fried Mac and Cheese balls (delicious) and an assortment of varied spring rolls which were also very good.
I ordered Evelyn's Famous Pasta. As to be expected, the portion size was huge! Everything in the dish tasted fresh and not overly cooked. The broccoli had a bit of crispness left to it and the mushrooms weren't soggy! It was very good.
Hubby had the Cajun Jambalaya Pasta and even he said he was surprised how great it was!
The wait time wasn't too bad for our food. Noise level is normally pretty high overall and that is to be expected too. The dinner here was a pleasant surprise overall. I hope it continues to be so!
