Patricia GuevaraJuly 29, 2013Our food was taking so long and one waiter told us that we're gonna have free salad, "on the house" which was really accommodating and they prepared my slice of cake and sang "Happy Birthday" 😊Upvoted 1 week ago
Dean LAugust 17, 2014Usually delicious no matter what you order. Be prepared to wait for a table. Guac and chips are a great starter. Good portion sizes throughout.
If you choose to eat a salad ask for a lunch size portion and go light on the dressing otherwise you turn it into a dessert. Visit me at personaltrainingSF.com. Serving San Mateo.Upvoted 4 weeks ago- Try the Ultimate Red Velvet Cake Cheesecake - Has to be the best cheesecake here. Not too sweet. Red velvet and cheesecake is a great combo.
- Tanya KoltsovaSeptember 13, 2015Most delicious bread, they serve it before taking order. Marsala chicken and Diane steak definitely worth trying.
Pavan KulkarniNovember 18, 2016Love the California guac salad and other starters. And obviously the white choc macadamia cheesecake- Great atmosphere here, we like to order off the skinnylicious menu for low calorie meals that are easy on the wallet!
MarkMillerITPro ✔ ツ MillerMay 5, 2013Do you miss Thai Chicken Pasta??? Us too! Solution: Order "Bang Bang Chicken and Shrimp" over Linguine noodles instead of Rice.
- Nelson EstradaMay 27, 2013Monterey Burger is delicious. Especially with a beer. And I loved the Raspberry Truffle Cheesecake
Jean PopwellFebruary 4, 2015Look for a bar seat table if 4 or less in your party. They are seat yourself!
Chocolate Mousse cheesecake is my main goto when it's not Pumpkin Cheesecake season.
Take your time to read this huge menu! Remember, you should try a dessert!
Joanne CJuly 5, 2012The mango key lime cheesecake is yummy! A little tangy! Also try the crab bites!
Leoncio MOctober 2, 2011I love the food but there was terrible service - I'll come back with diminished expectations. Oh ya - try the Louisiana Pasta it's SO good.- Try the Steak Diane - I get mine rare and don't forget to ask for hot sauce and horseradish.
Arthur ZeyApril 16, 2013Sit in Jimmy K's section if you can. Hands down one of the best waiters I've ever had.
Omar Jordan FDecember 1, 2012They don't take reservations after 5PM, because they claim they can accommodate large parties. Don't expect to bring a birthday party of 10 14 year old girls and get a table.
Chad BMay 21, 2012Service was actually pretty good. Attentive and prompt. Food, as always, way too much that you have to take some home.
Happy Hour is Monday-Friday from 4pm-6pm. $5 (full portioned) appetizers, $4 well drinks, etc.
Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake is delish! Def worth a try!
Chris WhalenDecember 27, 2011White chili is the best, get it almost every time and it's not too heavy.
Dine here now while it's still new! All the servers and hosts are still happy and free of disillusionment!
I'm not a salad guy, but their BBQ Ranch Chicken Salad is a winner!
Dulcecita ValleJune 21, 2015Hey The Cheesecake Factory, you should join Freebie! The benefits are amazing for both you and me. Read more
Amanda FairmanJuly 4, 2012Asked for no onions, server replied "do you not like them or are you allergic?" answered honestly by saying I wasn't allergic-- meal came to me LOADED with onions. Never. Eating. Here. Again.
This place is highly overrated. Not worth the 30 minute wait to be seated. Then the 20+ minute wait for warm food

"Excellent stock of music and film, hard copies you can hold in your hand. Great service in music world. 4 tiers of cd prices that are criminally cheap for the picks. I'll drive from Daly City to shop."
