Best

lunch menu is economical . decoration are rich and quality of food is good . each entree is pretty huge and enough for 2 people. We always end with lots of to gos .

Worst

This is a good place to eat. The service can be a little slow regardless of when you go. The calamari is better than the popcorn shrimp. The cheesecake is good but really rich....

Best eats at the Cambrideside Galleria 4/30/2010

I like this Cheesecake Factory location for when I'm already at the Cambridgeside Galleria doing my shopping and then need a hearty lunch/dinner. I'd say this is definitely the more casual location (sorry, but I think the Cambridgeside Galleria is really dingy/ghetto) so I'd prefer to come here for lunch rather than dinner. Their best lunches, imo, are their sandwich collection. Specifically, my favorite sandwich there of all is the Navajo - ""Warm Fry-Bread Stuffed with Grilled Chicken, Avocado, Lettuce, Tomato, Red Onion and Mayonnaise"" is what they have on their Website, but I ask for no mayo, and it comes served with french fries or a green salad (as most if not all of their sandwich selections do). But the best part about any Cheesecake Factory is that they have a good selection of yummy appetizers and cocktails, but both options are pretty pricey for your standard chain food/drinks. I'd just recommending coming here with a decent sized group to share a couple of appetizers and save money :) Pros: Good place to eat after shopping Cons: Definitely not my favorite Cheesecake Fact. more

Love Cheesecake Factory, and they didn't bat an eyelash about us parking our stroller at the table. It's expensive but the portions are so big my meal usually lasts me for three days! more

This is my favorite restaurant - great selection of food for every taste, reasonable prices, HUGE portions, and everything I've ever tried there has been delicious. And of course, then there are the scrumptious desserts..... more

Excellent food, and they Deliver! 4/22/2007

This was one of the best dining experiences I've had in the past few months, and the best part was I didn't even have to walk into the restaurant. I placed my order on Foodler roughly an hour before I normally eat dinner and by the time my meal showed up (about 45 minutes) I was ready for some delicious food. more

Excellent food, and they Deliver! 4/21/2007

This was one of the best dining experiences I've had in the past few months, and the best part was I didn't even have to walk into the restaurant. I placed my order on Foodler roughly an hour before I normally eat dinner and by the time my meal showed up (about 45 minutes) I was ready for some delicious food. Let me start by saying that the Roadside Sliders are incredible. Rarely will I order something as conventional as a cheeseburger when I order from a restaurant that has a ton more to offer, but after the first bite I was completely hooked. They're basically mini-burgers that you can finish in about 4 or 5 bites (1 or 2 if you're REALLY hungry). They were so flavorful I had to order another batch the following week. Top it off with a slice of Peanut Butter Cheesecake and you'll be one happy customer. An excellent choice for any occasion. more

No way!!! 9/3/2006

Over $50. for LUNCH for two people is beyond rediculous. The food wasn't good, either. Their cheesecake wasn't true cheesecake, it was mousse made to look like cheesecake. I wouldn't go there again!! Pros: good waitstaff Cons: the food, the cheesecake more

Tons of fun 7/26/2005

Ive never had a negative experience here once I got past the long wait. The servers were friendly, the portions great and the desserts..wow. If you dont have room, get one to go. The three different kinds of chocolate cake are to die for. Tons of variety so going in a group is never a problem- every one will find something they like. Yes, if you go on a weekend or in the evening, chances are it will be crowded. Have a drink at the bar and relax. Just dont go if you are in a hurry to get in and out. Pros: Dessert, Portions, Choices Cons: Wait time more
