REVIEW

"There's an old joke about Cheesecake Factory...despite their quite lengthy, multi-page menu, you can't find anything you want to eat. I'm not sure why that makes sense, but it wasn't my experience ordering delivery from them for dinner. Their full menu is available online, including all their cheesecake slices, AND including entire cheesecakes if you find yourself in a situation where you need an entire cheesecake. (These things happen!) We've been eating at one Cheesecake Factory or another since the dawn of time and we appreciate the generally consistent quality, frequent menu reinventions, and that yummy, yummy bread they give at the beginning. (Even with delivery!) On this particular order, my wife and I shared Sweet Corn Tamale Cakes off the Appetizers menu. (Which got me thinking, what really is the difference between the "Small Plates & Snacks" and "Appetizers" menu???) These were delicious...lots of flavor with nicely sweet tamales. Also, and this time from the Small Plates & Snacks menu, we got the Korean Fried Cauliflower. Also a yummy treat with a unique flavor profile done well. It seems you could eat over and over at Cheesecake Factory and not have the same meal twice...maybe that's the source of the joke...what kind of restaurant is this...American? International, all of the above...Like if you're in the mood for Italian you might pick an Italian restaurant and you'll have a pretty good idea of the dishes and flavor profiles you can choose from. Here you can literally get almost anything...breakfast, Italian, American, Small Plates, Tapas, Pizzas...it goes on and on...so one can understand, after the arduous task of finally deciding where to eat, arriving at Cheesecake Factory and realizing you have so many more decisions to make. Thankfully the quality is universally good so you almost can't go wrong. Choose wisely." - rickpoet
