Before coming to Cheesecake Factory, I HATED cheesecake, but so many of their options (I think there is about 50 of them) are so knock-out good that it doesn't feel like you're eating a typical cheesecake.
One of the biggest pluses about this place is the selection, they have so much on their menu across all types of cuisine that it's literally in a spiral bound notebook. I kept getting a four cheese pasta until I asked the waiter for other suggestions and since then, I have still never been disappointed with the food.
I don't come here as often as I like since the locations are far away and the wait is normally long, but it is well worth all of that for the food!
