I ordered a gf pasta and after eating about half the plate I found a regular spaghetti noodle in my plate. Upon further inspection, I found several more. The manager apologized and replaced my meal but the damage was already done. I wouldn’t let your guard down at this restaurant.

Firstly the dish wasn’t even very good, our waitress was very rude, and there was a glutinous noodle in my gluten free dish!!!! Even after emphasizing I had celiacs. Total let down, would not go back.

My girlfriend ordered the GF Shepherd's Pie and had a terrible reaction that night. She wasn't sure if it was the pie and had the leftovers the next night. She had an equal reaction. We cannot trust Cheesecake Factory's GF menu and will not be back.

I ordered a salad and my husband had a burger with gf bun. the fries are listed as gf but when we asked the server who then asked the manager, they couldn't verify that the dedicated fryer was actually dedicated. they switch the oil between the three fryers to clean it (not sure how that works) and they use all three fryers to fry wonton, chips etc in morning. so, don't order the fries or tortilla chips. the salad had too much dressing too.

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
