I have always loved Cheesecake factory dining experiences in the U.S as it has become such a tradition whenever we are visiting. As such, super excited they finally opened up shop here at Yorkdale! Came on a Wednesday night around 5:30pm and honestly, lines are still crazy. We waiting in the mall line for 20 mins and then another 2 hours almost for the pager to ring. Knowing how busy the restaurant, I had expected a wait but I did not appreciate the front desk hostess poor customer service. She was not very helpful at all and displayed poor attitude towards customers. When we were finally sat down, we also ended up getting a spot really close to the emergency exit which was super chilly. Honestly, this was about to be a 2-star review easily but the food was good and our waitress was a gem. My boyfriend ordered his favourite combo plate (madera chicken and steak) and I ordered myself the shrimp scampi. Both dishes were delicious. My complaint about my dish was that there wasn't a lot of angel hair pasta but a fair amount of shrimps. For dessert, we ordered the chocolate hazelnut cheesecake and it was delicious!!! It essentially taste like a ferrero rocher.
