Namesake Cheesecake is a cozy, local spot known for its delicious and unique cheesecake creations. The restaurant features a perfectly balanced sour cream layer that complements the smooth cheesecake layer, making each slice special. Customers often praise the friendly and welcoming atmosphere, with many noting that the owner, Cherith, is always in a great mood and provides amazing customer service. The cheesecakes are so good that they are served in multiple high-end restaurants nearby, and many visitors say it’s the best cheesecake they’ve ever had—even those who don’t usually like cheesecake. The shop also offers a variety of gifts, including beautiful alpaca shawls and blankets, olive oil, and jewelry from local artisans, making it a great place to shop for others or treat oneself. The history behind these cheesecakes traces back to Rickey's Hyatt House in Palo Alto, where Mrs. Lorraine Ricky created similar recipes, and Cherith honors that tradition with her own wonderful versions.
