Reviews for The Cheesecake Factory in Valencia, CA

We sat at the bar for happy hour. Our waiter was wonderful. The Mac and cheese balls are fabulous!

We went there on a whim. The hostess was not friendly, and thought her mask could hide the fact that she was scowling. We were... seated in the bar at a very small table, but did not request the bar, and did not even know there was a separate dining roomuntil later. The server was super friendly and attentive. Answered all of our questions & took our order. He even checkedabout ingredients for us! The food took more than 45 minutes to arrive though. They tried to make up for the delay bybringing more bread, but other people were being served quickly. I do not know what happened to our order but we did not plan tospend an hour and a half getting a quick lunch. I ordered chicken & broccoli pasta and the sauce was watery and the pasta waslike rubber and they really skimped on the chicken & broccoli. The other items were OK. Our server left just before we werefinished and the new server was also great. They do have really good servers at this location! The new hostesses at the frontwere also friendly and acknowledged us as we left. For that reason, I probably would go back and try sitting in the diningroom next time and not ordering pasta.

Had a blast, food was delicious and we had a great waitress. Thank you Angelica C. For your outstanding service.

Quick Summary Always a good/solid experience at Cheesecake Factory (one of my favorite corporate chain restaurants). Highly... recommend to book a reservation in advance on Yelp, because it can get crowded. Bar seating usually available as well if youprefer not to wait as long Food- 4 stars Pretty expansive menu, but I would probably opt for their hamburgers and cheesecakesas their best options. The beef patty is so juicy that it tastes that they grind the meat in-house. Would try to steer away fromthe steak entrée options Service- 4 stars The servers have been pretty solid every time I'm here. Pretty fast and thoroughservice. The only knock is at hostess station. Despite having a reservation, I had to check in and wait for a text, checked inagain after the text, and then wait again near the hostess station (it's an extra check-in but it could've been moresmooth) Ambiance- 4 stars Typical Cheesecake Factory layout with contemporary design, and a dark and cozy dining roomvibe Bottom Line Pretty solid food (especially if you get their hamburgers), large portions and good service. It's notspectacular, but you're getting a good dining experience every time Read more

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 isavailable online, including all their cheesecake slices, AND including entire cheesecakes if you find yourself in a situationwhere you need an entire cheesecake. (These things happen!) We've been eating at one Cheesecake Factory or another since thedawn of time and we appreciate the generally consistent quality, frequent menu reinventions, and that yummy, yummy bread theygive at the beginning. (Even with delivery!) On this particular order, my wife and I shared Sweet Corn Tamale Cakes off theAppetizers 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 & Snacksmenu, we got the Korean Fried Cauliflower. Also a yummy treat with a unique flavor profile done well. It seems you could eatover and over at Cheesecake Factory and not have the same meal twice...maybe that's the source of the joke...what kind ofrestaurant is this...American? International, all of the above...Like if you're in the mood for Italian you might pick anItalian restaurant and you'll have a pretty good idea of the dishes and flavor profiles you can choose from. Here you canliterally get almost anything...breakfast, Italian, American, Small Plates, Tapas, Pizzas...it goes on and on...so one canunderstand, after the arduous task of finally deciding where to eat, arriving at Cheesecake Factory and realizing you have somany more decisions to make. Thankfully the quality is universally good so you almost can't go wrong. Choose wisely. Read more

I came here for my Birthday. I ordered a dinner meatloaf it was huge a portion and it taste good. Peach smoothie my fave and... Godiva Chocolate Cheesecake so yummy. We also have a great server, so everything turn out fantastic. Read more

The very first time for my boys at any Cheesecake factory. Definitely made reservations ahead of time, the hostess was not very... friendly and seems like they were but upset. Our waitress Jody on the other hand was very pleasant and nice to have. She was themost patient person and answered any questions that were asked. Very helpful with the order. My kids have disabilities that shewas able to accommodate to their needs. Wish there were more people like her. Thank you for your time and consideration. Even wedon't live near by, willing to make the drive for services by her. Read more

2021.06-01/1200: We happened to be in the area and it's been awhile. We decided to stop in since we haven't physically dined... anywhere in over a year and at the Cheesecake Factory at that. We had a great experience. The decor was nice. This place ishuge and even better, so were their tables and booths! We were greeted the minute we walked in and there was no wait. Our serverwas Ryan K. and he was excellent and super attentive. We arrived at the beginning of a lunch rush and it seemed like it wasgetting pretty busy. I love the set-up of their wait stations. They're concealed pretty well. All the servers were really nice,too. We started with the Calamari and I had the Fresh Grilled Salmon lunch size. ....okay...I couldn't imagine what the dinnersize looks like - my plate was huge! My salmon was huge and my broccoli was a large portion and my mashed potatoes were skyhigh! Fantastic! The Bacon Bacon Burger was beautifully put together and delicious. Only one thing, his fries that came with theburger were cold but that's okay, he didn't feel like eating them anyways because we both were stuffed from the Calamari. That'sthe only reason why I gave it four stars. Other than that, our cocktails were great! We got two rounds! The Pineapple GingerMule and the Bourbon and Honey were perfect! We didn't order dessert because we were stuffed and had quite the drive. All inall, great experience, great server and delicious food. Portions to pricing with certain entrees aren't bad at all!
