“Went to Cheesecake Factory thinking I’d just get a slice of cheesecake. Three hours later, I emerged, dazed, holding a menu thicker than a Harry Potter book and wondering if I’d just signed up for a degree in culinary arts. The portions? Massive. I ordered a salad, and they brought me a bowl big enough to double as a hot tub. Cheesecake? Sublime. But be warned: you’ll leave with leftovers and the deep existential question, “Why did I eat 3,000 calories before dessert?” 10/10 would go back, with stretchy pants.“

“We found this place on Google - it had really high ratings so we gave it a try. The staff was very friendly, the place was clean and WOW - the food was soo good!

We had the bbq burger- seriously the best! The fried Chicken sandwich was really good and the avacado chicken sandwich was really good too. Definitely give it a try if you’re in the area! 10 out of 10! ⭐️“
