The Cheesecake Factory

I tend to get items marked gluten free as long as they’re not fried. They do not use a separate GF fryer. The pasta has always been a hit for me!

Not safe. I have gotten glutened more times than not now. Used to be able to go and not have any problems and always was able to enjoy the gluten free four cheese pasta. I make sure my needs are spoken for and that has not stopped me from finding regular pasta in my supposed to be gluten free pasta. I do not recommend.

Limited GF modifications; no separate fryer; limited awareness of celiac/allergy prep from the server. I only ate the beet/orange/avocado salad and didn’t order more because I was worried about cross contamination. While I didn’t get glutened, I certainly wasn’t satisfied and I left hungry.

I waited 1 hr to be seated and another hour to get my very expensive, so so salad. I'll never go back.

I have only been here for drinks and dessert so far. The gf chocolate cheesecake is disgustingly sweet and so rich that neither my boyfriend nor I could make it past half of our slices. However, their vodka martini with blue-cheese-stuffed olives is fantastic in flavor and potency (I had two, and boy are they a doozy). I don't know how gf it is because of the blue cheese, but if you don't have a super duper sensitivity, go for it!

Celiac friendly?

No

I crave cheesecake like, on the regular. I miss it so much! My favorite flavor is original, hands down. Unfortunately, the only gluten-free cheesecake The Cheesecake Factory offers is their Godiva chocolate cheesecake. It is not labeled gluten-free on the list of cheesecakes, which worried me, but they claim it is safe. I do not think the staff is trained on cross-contamination, as I'm pretty sure they used the same utensil to handle my cheesecake as they did to handle my husband's gluteny one. I avoided the area touched by the utensil and felt fine after eating it, but it didn't satisfy my cheesecake craving. Super rich chocolate may be some people's cup of tea, but I just don't dig it much. I plan to just stick with the little mini gluten-free cheesecakes from Whole Foods from now on.

I was blown away with how big their GF menu is. They offer GF appetizers, sides, entrees, and desserts. The food is so delicious, I usually get the mushroom burger (with GF bun) with a side salad. The GF chocolate cheesecake is good if you love really rich desserts... It was a little too sweet for me. I like the (kids sized) vanilla ice cream with hot fudge. They also offer an adult size sundae but it is made for 2-3 people. I only gave it 4 out of 5 stars because the last time I was there my food was cross contaminated. Within the hour my stomach swelled up 3 times the size and started to cramp horribly. I have been many times and only experienced a bad reaction once.

Celiac friendly?

No

My daughter who has celiac told the waiter that she had a gluten allergy and would get very sick if he did not put the order in as gluten free. Waited over an hour for our food. The pasta she got looked gluten free but after 3 bites, she said it did not taste good. Within 15 minutes, she was sick in the bathroom. Told the waiter - did not seem to be concerned. Asked him to take the dish off of our bill and that did not seem to concern him either. Overall, do not eat here if you want gluten free food.

I let the server know I was gluten free - coeliac multiple times so she would get my order right and I confirmed with her again before my meals came out and she still gave me the gluten cheesecake instead of the gluten free one

I went here and ordered a gluten free burger and bun. The food came with a gluten bun. I sent it back as I noticed it wasn’t gluten free. I woke up sick as a dog for two days. If you’re sensitive don’t eat here. Even after the gluten free bun change I still got sick.

Was not bad but experience varies by server. We came twice as staying nearby... only on the 2nd visit did our server correct the misinformation from the first server.

There is NO dedicated fryer... it is shared oil. A lot of the staff are unclear of the difference
