When I told the waiter I had a "gluten allergy" he just gave me a look. He then said that just means they will give me a flour tortilla and when i started to say something he corrected himself and said corn. Our food took an hour and a half to be served and both myself and the non-gf person I was with got sick the day after. Not sure if I got glutened or food poisoned but either way would not recommend.

I didn't realize the cheesecake would be gluten free which led to 5 hours of wrenching vomiting. :(

Cheesecake was surprisingly slow to come out with their GFree options. Finally they have a seperate menu. All of their menus are books so I still worry about education and cross-contamination with their cooks. I did have the lemon roasted chicken and it was delicious. Also had the Godiva Chocolate cheesecake - it was just ok.

The staff is uneducated, the choices are plain and cross-contamination rampant.

I was worried about going here because a friend of mine said don't because you'll get sick. I changed my mind after the reviews here. So I went. There isn't a separate menu but items are marked GF. I ordered the Gf version of the ribeye steak. I told the waitress I had a gluten allergy. She then asked me if I wanted the fried onion rings. She clearly didn't understand what GF meant. And I was nervous but still ordered. Although she wrote it down I still received a dish that wasn't gf. I didn't realize it until half way through it. 2 days later I'm still feeling the effects. I will not return there

I got the gf pasta cabornara and gf Godiva cheesecake. Both were amazing. I wish it wasn't always so crowded I would go there more.

Cheesecake Factory has a separate spiral bound gluten free menu. I almost always order their pear and endive salad. It's delicious. This past time I was craving pasta and thrived their Evelyn Pasta special. It was awful and lacked any flavor. Manager returned our money.

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

Tried to order a gluten free four cheese pasta for my Celiac daughter. When asked if they cook the pasta in separate water and use separate utensils, they said unfortunately they cook it in the same water as gluten pasta and they can’t use separate water. :(
