The Cheesecake Factory

Parmesan crusted chicken is Always excellent And the bread

i wish i could give more stars. i think that the entirety of this experience was just a big miscommunication, and the mistake was an honest one, but it really ruined my trust in this restaurant. our server was sweet and very attentive to each of her tables including ours, and i’ve always enjoyed eating here. i have been a vegetarian for eight years, i cannot stomach meat for many reasons. to save myself the trouble of mishaps, i usually ask servers if there is meat present in the dish and ask them to remove it when it is. my server said there was not meat in the dish of my choice, and when it cooled off enough for me to actually taste it i noticed there was a strange textured [vegetable] that i couldn’t shake the feeling of being vaguely similar to bacon. i kept wondering what vegetable feels like bacon, and why do i feel so nauseous? i kept reassuring myself since i was informed there was no meat that i was just being anxious, but i just couldn’t shake the discomfort or nagging nausea, so i asked again. after one more no, and one more ask, my server remembered there was in fact pancetta (which is beef i guess) in this new dish and apologized for forgetting about it, and offered to remove it from the ticket or give me a free dessert. i was trying not to cry in her face seeing as 8 years of dedication and effort felt like a bomb on my already upset stomach, and processing what i had just done while apologizing for complaining just made me feel worse. i have worked in the service industry before, so i understand mistakes. i ate most of the dish trying to figure out what the pancetta was on my own, so i didn’t make her comp it, but after all of my previous good experiences this one really ruined my birthday dinner. i’m very non confrontational, and i do not blame her for what happened, nor do i dismiss her efforts to fix the mistake, but i can say that i will no longer dine at the cheesecake factory. long review, but i needed to express my disappointment. pasta was good, but not worth the massive stomach ache or overwhelming guilt that have followed.

Omg amazing. A little pricey, but soooo worth it!!! You definitely get your money's worth!

Of coarse the best was the dessert.

Ok place, sad food. Annoying wait time though. Even when you have a reservation. Takes so incredibly long to get the food.
