what to order at Cheesecake Factory?

[pugz]

work xmas party is there tomorrow night, I haven't been in years. I just remember the menu is the size of a novella and the portions are ginormous.

I have $20 to spend, help me MM

I usually get their Skinnylicious pasta, and then eat tons and tons of bread, which defeats the whole Skinnylicious thing. I love CF.

I love the BBQ chicken salad and my husband loves the luau salad.

Lettuce wraps or a salad.

[cricketwife]

L u a u salad. Sorry funky spacing was loophole for autocorrect

I like the lunch portion of the Crusted Chicken Romano.

[mbcdefg]

Banana cheesecake. Fuck real food.

I think I had a blue cheese hamburger there years ago and it stuck with me because it was amazing.

I think the general's chicken (or is it orange chicken?) is good too.

The last couple of times I've been there I haven't been that impressed. But that's likely because of the overwhelming menu and picking the wrong thing, I think the food there is generally decent for a chain.

Save some money for the cheesecake, obvs. that's the best part!

Chipotle chicken pasta is AWESOME! For something lighter, their turkey avocado club is also delicious. And obviously get cheesecake!

[redheadk]

Stuffed chicken tacos! Delish and they come with the awesome corn cakes.

I really like the French Market Salad - I think it comes in a half order size - which while still quite large is less ginormous than the could feed a family of 6 full portion.

I work there. What do you like? Light fare? Filling meal? Mexican? Italian?

[hellonurse]

They took my favorite sandwich off the menu. :-(

Now I just get the buffalo blast app and cheesecake.

[audry80]

They have a new southwest chicken sandwich that is amazing. The chipotle pasta is also good. My favorite app is the buffalo blasts. Now I am craving CF!!

[rupertpenny]

If you like cilantro get the Santa fe chicken salad. The cilantro peanut dressing is delicious.

[lauralala]

Bistro shrimp pasta is my go-to order there. And key lime cheesecake

[fortmyersbride]

The pear and bleu cheese flatbread with Godiva cheesecake for dessert

[pugz]

mmm you guys have posted some good options. I guess we'll see how hungry I am. I dunno about cheesecake though as I have totally overloaded on sweets this week.

[bronxgirl]

I love the skinnyliscous shrimp tacos. Yummm. I also love their lettuce wraps.

[sara76]

Avocado egg rolls and peppermint bark cheesecake. Yum.

I'm not a fan of CF but for some reason, I crave this.

BBQ pork sandwich with sweet potato fries or mashed potatoes and asparagus

I love the BBQ pork sandwich but the coke slaw and fries are a must with it.

[bookqueen15]

The Avocado egg rolls are amazing!

That's why I suggested the banana cheesecake. Banana is a fruit.

I vote an app + cheesecake. You can't go there without getting the dessert yo

Agree with this. Their cheesecake is great, but their entrees are like overpriced Applebees. Some of their apps aren't bad though.

[madringal]

Avocado eggrolls are the most amazing app ever. I order them for dinner when I go.

[jennistarr1]

I didn't like their burgers...and I got a puttanesca pasta that I didn't like...

Randomly I got shrimp scampi and it was freaking amazing....

and lettuce wraps

[Deleted]

LOL was this thread completely unhelpful? Other than the avocado eggrolls, I don't think anything was mentioned twice. It's like looking at the huge menu, message board style.
