The Cheesecake Factory
My bff and I met up at the Cheesecake Factory in Braintree for lunch. https://www.thecheesecakefactory.com/menu/ We’ve met here many times before since it’s in between where we both live and right off the highway. I’d say I’ve probably eaten here about 10 times over the course of many years and the food is always consistent. On this most recent visit we were seated right away. It was pretty busy so it took a little bit for the waitress to come over to take our drink orders but it was fine as we were chatting away. I had an iced tea. Usually they ask 50 questions about what kind you want, sweetened or unsweetened, flavored, etc. She didn’t ask, just brought me the unsweetened which was fine. My friend had water. I ordered the cheeseburger with fries and she had the avocado egg rolls. Both meals were good. I ordered my burger medium rare. It was pink in the center but fairly well done around the edges. It was still tasty and I ate the whole thing.
If you’ve never been to the Cheesecake Factory, they have a huge menu. I’m not kidding when I say it’s pages and pages long. You really should have an idea of what you want going into it. Even with a burger, they had multiple kinds. They even had one on the skinny menu for 550 calories. That didn’t sound like a lot of fun and there was no cheese so I went with the one on the regular menu. Neither of us got cheesecake but I have had multiple kinds in the past. They’re always good but very expensive. Our overall bill was $32 before tip. We’ll be back I’m sure.
