My daughter is newly gluten free and Asymptomatic, so not overly concerned about cross contamination as we have started navigating the restaurant world, but did ask all the questions. The hostess was not able to help, referred us to the bakery for questions. I was a little concerned, as the menu gave warnings about possibility of cross contamination, but the server was very helpful, answered all our questions and assured us that the gluten free meal (pasta), was made in its own, clean, gluten free pots, utensils. Cheesecake options were limited, which disappointed my 12 year old, but she loved both GF cheesecake that we ordered.

I was pleasantly surprised eating here, as chains can be scary but my experience was great! I got a spicy chipotle chicken pasta dish which was very tasty and I felt very safe. The waiter even told us that a chef accidentally put crisps on the dish and that they would remake it(they did not bring out the messed up dish at all). Really nice experience

The hostess was very knowledgeable about the GF options and how it works. They were very kind and accomdating. There is a decent amount of choices and they are all outlined in the menu. A very decent experience in my opinion.

I was not impressed with the food a little pricey for what you get. The staff we had that day did not understand gluten free. Will not return;

Staff was great with showing the GF options (although they’re shown on the menu, it’s an overwhelming menu) We had the corn tamales (delicious) and bacon cheeseburger on gf bun. I read you can ask for GF bread which is just the burger bun. Overall good!

We eat at Cheesecake Factory monthly. Have been going for 20+ years. We feel they do a pretty good job with their gf items. Their fries are gf which is a big bonus!
