Always a pleasure dining at cheesecake factory whenever we were out as a family this is our top choice because it is the only place where there is some thing a for everyone. I have a very picky eater family and one person likes chicken and the other likes pasta the others always on a diet and then of course there is me who loves carbs who always wants to have rich indulgent food that I cannot get the same made it at home so we are down to cheesecake factory it is been consistently good food good vibes great service and also the plus at the festival city mall branch is that it has impeccable uninterrupted views of the fountain show and the laser show and the best part you don’t necessarily have to be completely outdoors they have a covered terrace which protects you from the heat and humidity during the summers and keeps you nice and warm during the brief winter period.
Now here is my recommendation to try this is our Family order we have three teenagers and like I said there’s something for everyone here.
Brown bread the complimentary bread that maybe one of our primary reasons of loving this place a little extra.
Sheila’s chicken Avo salad, this is absolutely delicious, the dressing is light & works well with the textures. Offcourse then you have to get the factory nachos; these need no introduction possibly the biggest portion of nachos in the city & the most delicious too. Now a secret; you have to try the crispy Brussel sprouts, they’re so addictive!! For mains, Chipotle pasta, make it bow tie, and heavy sauce, ask foe extra cheese on top & chilli flakes if you’re brave like me. Then get the chicken & biscuits, a classic American dish this sauce on this is amazing! Also order the Cajun Chicken Littles also a classic American dish, comes with buttered corn & mash potatoes, ideal for sharing, the tenders are well seasoned. If you’re in the mood of steak, they’ve a good selection now, we usually get the ribeye with a side of green beans.
Now always always room for cheesecake; the selection is huge offcourse, you can do it the old fashioned way, and check the display and choose the slices you want or be like us, keep ordering the one you tried the first time years ago 😂😂
Alot of people don’t know this, so another secret ( you’re all very welcome; I’m a kind person 😅) cheesecake serves Starbucks coffee beans, hence they’ve an outstanding selection of coffee and the hot chocolate is too amazing!!!! Do try it ! Also it’s very decently priced compared to the fancy coffee shop just outside this branch 🤭🫢
Shout out to Ronda for outstanding service; it was a busy night she took good care of us. And hi John your team is fab ! Till next time...
Read moreIt’s hard not to like The Cheesecake Factory. Everything about this hugely popular US franchise screams comfort food decadence, from its XXL sized, gazillion calorie portions to its all-American menu. This MOE branch was the first to open in Dubai. I think there are now four, all huge by anyone’s standards. Ideally located with a view of the Ski Dubai slope, The Cheesecake Factory in the UAE is an altogether more upmarket proposition than what you find in the US. And the food is better. It’s funny, I don’t feel that way about Denny’s or IHOP here, just The Cheesecake Factory. Interesting that the Alshaya pixie dust worked on one but not the other (both The Cheesecake Factory and IHOP are handled by the Kuwaiti F&B giants).
The Cheesecake Factory menu is extensive and has something for everyone. I love the Chinese Chicken Salad which gets its name from its sweet and tangy plum sauce. It’s good to have as a main. Their burgers are good and reasonably sized, not like the crazy huge ones at Applebee’s. When our kids were younger, they loved their pasta section, the Fettuccini Alfredo and Spaghetti and Meatballs their favourites. My wife usually orders from their SkinnyLicious section kidding herself that they have less calories. I find the breakfast they serve on Friday and Saturdays as good as anything at IHOP, the omelettes and breakfast burrito (served everyday) are simply amazing. But my very favourite thing to have at The Cheesecake Factory are their Fish Tacos.
Service at The Cheesecake Factory is typically US have-a-nice-day friendly and accommodating. Their wait staff really are very well trained and seem motivated and happy. My family and I don’t go to The Cheesecake Factory too often and that’s because I have no control over their deliriously delicious cheesecakes. All the pains and care I take to keep my blood sugar in check evaporates at the first sight of their cake display at the entrance. Although I am not a big fan of this type of restaurant, I’ll admit that I have a soft spot for The Cheesecake Factory. Worth a visit…and a revisit.

Read moreWe had dinner The Cheesecake Factory (Mall Of Emirates) last night and it was an exceedingly impressive experience. From the food , to the ambience , prompt service and courteous employees. They have a wide menu option that would satisfy everyone’s taste buds . The menu includes a variety of choices for the weight watchers as well under the category “Skinnylicious”. The quality of food was excellent and so is the quantity (they give large portions of food) . This is a must try place for all the foodies Chicken Taquitos - This was an appetiser. It was corn tortillas stuffed with chicken , cheese , corn, spices and deep fried . Served with Avo sauce and some lime and chilli based salsa. If you are looking for lite starters this will be good option . Coconut Limeade - A very unique combination . Fresh limeade and coconut cream blended together . So fresh and refreshing. If you are a coconut lover , this drink is a must try . For me , I personally felt it was too sweet . Strawberry Daiquiri - Strawberry , lime and ice blended together . I did not enjoy this drink much as I am a big fan of ice blended beverages. The taste of strawberry and lime hits your taste bud spot on . It was good. Bang Bang Chicken & Shrimp - A Thai based main course . Tender chicken slices , shrimp and few veggies cooked in coconut , peanut based curry and served with short grained rice . This dish was so heavy , luscious and heavenly . Topped with golden fried coconut flakes . It was soooo good . It can be finished by one person . The quantity is suffice for two .
