This was our last dinner for a training event that my colleagues and I attended. Our waitress was amazing, she was friendly and answered any question that we had. Every person in the party wasn't able to finish our meal so we each had a second meal from this dinner. We all enjoyed different types of cheesecake, I enjoyed the Snickers one. If I am back in the Baybrook area then I will be stopping by.

I would have given 2 stars - but our waiter made it more tolerable. Honestly, the food was really mediocre.. I was disappointed since you have clear view of your food being made. The noddles for the pasta should be used for a soup NOT an Alfredo dish. It was too thick and chewy. The herb salmon was okay but it looks like the citrus/lemon juice they used was too overpowering, there was no real proper balance. The only thing well they are actually is…cheesecake. The fried Mac and cheese as the appetizer made us stay a little longer to try the rest of the menu. and the decor of this place is something lol like is it supposed to be modern and Tuscan or Egyptian?The menu could use revamping too.

Came in around 10. As you can see in the photo the bar is full of people. (Sarcasm if you can't tell) The gentleman working behind the bar must have been so stressed out with drink orders that he spent more time worried about the basketball game on TV and playing on his phone. Our food came out, we finished 80% of our meal before any drinks came from the bar. Good thing the lady gave us water when we were seated. We decided to skip dessert, even though that was the entire reason we decided to go.

We've been fans for years, but tonight's meal was not good. I ordered the Baja chicken tacos...the chicken was dried out (overcooked) , the cilantro rice was cold and bland, and the black beans had no seasoning. My wife ordered the salmon salad and her salmon was woefully over cooked. I was not impressed and will second -think returning soon.

The Cheesecake Factory is on my list of favorite chain restaurants, definitely because of DESSRTS! This location is close to us & we go as a family pretty often. Expansive menu- there's something for the kids to the senior citizens. Service is hit or miss here & wait times can be long (for a table & for food). Parking is usually easy (shared with P.F Chang's).

I love cheesecake factory. It is one of my favorite restaurants. When I like to have lunch out, it is my first option usually. Food is very delicious, tasty and fresh. I always order many appetizers and small plates to share before the entree ( which we have to skip sometimes because their irresistible bread!). My favorites are: the Korean cauliflower, avocado and beet salad and the avocado egg roll. For deserts I like to try any seasonal cheesecake.

The Cheesecake Factory is always enjoyable with more choices than you can imagine. The food is better than most chain restaraunts and the deserts are delicious.

Unfortunate and disappointing experience. First, the hostess was unfriendly with very minimal eye contact, conversation, and zero smile. Our waitress seemed friendly...in my opinion, using forced friendly scripts. Everytime we needed her it was a long wait. Not once did she ask to refill our drinks (water). Our main courses didn't come altogether. My daughter got her sweet potato and enchiladas dish last. I did not want to eat ahead of her because she was hungry. So while I waited until her food arrived, mine had already gotten cold. When my husband and I ordered the salmon salad, we said we were going to split the dish. She said she understood but did not bring us two extra plates. When I asked for an extra plate, reminding her we were splitting the dish, she brought just one. I don't know what she was thinking! When my husband ordered two coffees for the two of us, she brought the coffee and creamer. When she came back much later I asked for the sugar and had to ask her what do her customers normally use to stir their coffee since teaspoons did not come with the fork in the napkin that was already at the table. Our waitress replied that we had to ask for the teaspoon if we wanted to stir our coffee. I really thought that was a stupid comment. Quality of our salmon salad was really poor. The lettuce was soggy and I could not believe after all horrible experience our bill came to over $120 with poor service. I wouldn't ever return to this restaurant nor recommend it to anyone.

We came to celebrate my grandson 10th birthday and he was treated like a king. Food was incredible the service was even better and of course the dessert was great. We had an amazing waiter and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

Great experience as always! Our server, Rachel L was so nice too! Had the potato soup, chicken Alfredo, and Herb crusted Salmon. Of course we always save room for cheesecake & had the Coconut Cream Pie, Pineapple upside down, & Very Cherry Ghirardelli cheesecakes in our party. One thing that could improve is adding another stall in the women’s restroom as the line was little long as only had 2 stalls in this big of restaurant.
