    This place stays busy for a reason - the cheesecake of course but the food is so delicious! Try the Steak Diane. The new hazelnut crunch cheesecake became my new favorite instantly with one bite!

    I was pleasantly surprised how good the meal was. We took home some cheese cake and that was excellent also. My recommendation for the Cheesecake Factory is only tempered by the lengthy wait times.

    Is usually 1.5 hrs waiting line during weekends but is the only TCF at Metro Detroit... all people want to celebrate their special occasions, try the key lime pie or tiramisu! One of the best!

    A lil on the pricey side, but the food is good. I liked the Pasta Carbonara. It’s like a garlic parmesan cream sauce that’s full of flavor over angel hair pasta with peas and bacon. Yumm!

    Love the decor, the staff, and the food. My menu favorites are the crab cakes and the lemon herb roasted chicken. Oh, and of course the cheesecake! Portions (of food AND drinks) are generous.

    I work here. The Cheesecakes are always made to order. It is good for dates/ occasions but beware, weekends are the busiest- all day Sat & Sun brunch. waits can be up to 45 minutes just for a slice.

    Food is always good here. Today I am having the Shrimp Scampi Steak Diane combo. Excellent food and excellent service. I had a gorgeous waiter. Celebrating my 18th wedding anniversary this weekend.

    National Cheesecake Day is a 2-day special where you get 1/2 off any slice of cheesecake. Dine-in only is in the fine print. So, they will wrap it to take home with you! July 30-31, 2014.

    I suggest going during the week if you don't want to wait. I felt like the 2 person tables on the patio were too close to each other. HUGE selection of food. Good food!

    Although the wait is extremely long and its very busy it is WORTH the wait! The cheesecake is fabulous and the service is really good for being a stressful environment!

    The Chicken Marsala is great but order it with angel hair instead of the bow tie pasta and make sure you get extra Marsala sauce! Enjoy.

    The wait is worth it. Chicken madeira and pasta is so very good. Love the red velvet cheesecake and my husband like the banana cream.

    During the week, have a drink at the bar if you order a carry out. I always get a Mai Tai. Take me back to the Caribbean baby!

    The meals are in large portions and so are the cheesecakes so i recommend what you don't finish take it home or give it to someone else to take home.

    Amazing menu with tons of options! And that's before you even get to the 50 choices of cheesecake!! Expect to wait an hour before being seated.

    Menu is gigantic but definitely I'd suggest the Chicken Bellagio, the Ultimate Red Velvet Cheesecake and the Raspberry Dark Chocolate Truffle

    The 2 hour wait was ridiculous however, our server Tyson along with the runner staff was incredible and made our overall experience very enjoyable!

    The Famous (Cheesecake) Factory Meatloaf lunch portion was enough for dinner! Delicious!

    Two hour wait in evening per the hostess. Put your name on the list. After first hour, you go back to the hostess, and she hands you a buzzer. We waited another half hour and got seated. Worth it!

    If you can go during lunch, there's no wait! Plus you can have one of the lunch specials which are still big portions, but for less money. 🍰

    25-cents from every slice of Oreo Dream cheesecake sold is donated to charity. Win-win!: feed yourself & Feed America.

    The wait was ridiculous! It was something like 4 hours, so make sure you have time to waste. However the food was great, and I haven't had any better cheesecake!

    Looking for a good appetizer to start with? Try the Pretzel Crusted Chicken! You will love it.

    The wait was 3 hours long to get in, we opted for the thirty minute wait for cheesecake to go. Hopefully they start allowing for reservations soon!!

    Tiniest Cheesecake Factory I've ever seen. Long lines for pick up and to sit. Both sides of the Dining rooms are very small. And they don't have the parking spots set up for carry out customers.

    Highly advise for parties under 4 to snag the seating in front of the bar. It is first come, first serve. Avoid the long waits.

    Most people order cheesecake for desert but the Lemon Cream Torte and the Warm Apple Crisp are great alternatives!

    Long wait in the beginning. The bar area is first come, first serve; good for singles or party of two.
