Review:

I've eaten at a number of Cheesecake Factory restaurants around the USA and have never yet had a bad burger so I was looking forward to this one and I wasn't disappointed.  The burger was cooked to order, I selected Medium on Sourdough French, and was served with fries.  I hadn't read the menu properly and was expecting a roll rather than a French stick and was a little worried that the bread would be too crusty and would crush the burger each time I took a bite.  I was pleasantly surprised that this didn't happen and I enjoyed the burger a lot.  The onions were nicely caramelised and not too sweet.  The burger was tasty and seemed home made as it was shaped the bread.  The fries were okay, nothing special.  The service was excellent from a very attentive waitress as is to be expected when dining in the US.

About the venue:

Cheesecake Factory is a restaurant chain in the USA with venues in many cities across the country.  They are usually very busy at peak times and the portion sizes are very large.  If you plan to eat more than  once course make sure you are very hungry or are happy to take some of it home with you.  The Cheesecake Factory in Scottsdale, Arizona is typical of a restaurant in the chain, nicely decorated and comfortable with a wide range of menu options - especially cheesecakes.
