The Cheesecake Factory

[mom2grace]

We are going on Thursday, what is your favorite meal to order there? The menu is overwhelming!!

I know DH will have some cheesecake as well, not sure what I will have for dessert!

So far my favorite is the Chicken Madeira, it is wonderful. My husband's favorite is chicken and biscuits. There are just too many dishes to choose from. We love the Cheesecake Factory. Oh, try the fried macaroni and cheese appetizer, it's really good and something different.

The shrimp and bacon club sandwich is fabulous!! Also the sweet corn tamales on the appetizer menu are great!

 

[Tracey1974]

Everything is great! The appetizers are yummy and my favorite cheesecake is the banana cream pie. Oh- I am craving it now!!!

I love the popcorn chicken. And I know cheesecake is THE dessert there but their ice cream brownie sundae is to die for if cheesecake isn't up your alley.

Chicken Madiera
Crusted Chicken Romano

Get the Avocado Eggroll appetizer.

I love the mile high meat loaf. Last time we had the Godiva cheesecake, pricey but good.

We were there a couple of weeks ago in Charlotte and I got something that was chicken and bow tie pasta (farfelle?) had mushrooms and a yummy sauce, too. DH got the pumpkin peacn cheesecake and it was fabulous. I think I got the tuxedo cheesecake (?)..... something with chocolate. It was great, too. If you have a child, they do not have a children's menu per se. DS6 got grilled cheese and gave it a big thumbs up!

mmmm.....lettuce wraps.

I love that place. Chicken Madeira is one of my faves. But really, I don't think you could go wrong with any of it! The cheesecake is out of this world. I always seem to go for the Turtle Cheesecake. Just can't be beat.

I've only been twice but had to have the chicken salad sandwich the second time too because it was so good. I honestly didn't think the cheesecake was that wonderful, but the food was sure good!

Barbeque Ranch Chicken Salad. Their salads are the best and IMO, that's the best one.

 

[mom2grace]

Anyone else?

I had the Meatloaf last time I was there, and DH had the Boom Boom Chicken-he LOVED it! Oh, and the Sandwich with Advocado and Chicken/Turkey I believe it was, is good too.

Ok, I'll chime in. IMO, the food is just so, so. I have been several times and have never been blown away with anything other than the dessert. Which, may be biased because I love sweets. The bruschetta was pretty good as was the mini crabcakes for an appetizer. DH had the Shepherd's Pie once and didn't like it. The Chicken Madeira was ok to me, but I don't like mushrooms. The Fried Shrimp Scatter and Jamacian Black Pepper Shrimp was good, just don't be an idiot like I was and try a bite of the plantains. Oh my gosh, that was so disgusting! For dessert, I normally get the Strawberry Cheesecake. I eat half of it there and take the rest home. Last time, I branched out and tried the Tiramisu Cheesecake. Oh my gosh, I was in heaven! I ate every bite while still at the restaurant. The flavors blended together so well. Every since then, I have been on a tiramisu kick. I even bought tiramisu flavored coffee. Hope you enjoy!

I'm pretty picky and Cheesecake Factory is one of the few chains I'll even go to. They make everything fresh and I've never had a bad meal. I love the nachos, the chicken madeira and the mashed potato omelette for brunch. Anything with pumpkin and pecans would make me very happy!

 

[goodeats]

They are definitely a chain restaurant. My DH is not a fan, but I enjoy it since it's pretty consistent and I'm guaranteed leftovers.

My favorite entrees are -
Crusted Chicken Romano
Orange Chicken
Chicken Marsala
Some pasta dish in a cream sauce, yummy! I forget the name, though.

You should always get the cheesecake, and my favorite of those are -
Pumpkin
Banana Creme or Vanilla Bean with a side of hot fudge
Brownie Sundae (yes, it's a cheesecake flavor!)

Ok, this thread has caused me to gain 3 pounds just thinking about all this stuff. Yum!

I like the buffalo blasts and spring roll apps, the fish tacos, and banana cream cheesecake!!! DH likes the Godiva cheesecake.
