The Cheesecake Factory

It's the View. First of all it is the typical Cheesecake Factory as far as menu goes... the wait is ALWAYS incredibly long so when we go we plan to sit at the Bar no further expectations than that. You can either take the escalators or the elevators.

The view is breathtaking and truly a urban experience as far as getting the "feel" of the city. I recommend sitting outside at least once. The service at the Bar is always rushed for the Bartenders as they are handling drink orders for the tables as well. Our drinks were strong and tasty and the appetizers we ordered were plentiful. I do suggest if you venture up to the top floor of Macy's to try this Cheesecake Factory - come with the mindset that you will more than likely have a wait but hey your in one of the most beautiful cities in world enjoy the experience go browsing in Macy's... although I am not sure the pagers work that far =/

Great Location and food!. The Cheesecake factory is a place I come to whenever I go to Union Square. I love their appetizers and their deserts. The portions are big and I am always stuffed when I leave- in a good way. Their outdoor seating is a real treat and anybody that goes their must try it out.

The only drawback is their mixed drinks/cocktails which are a bit weak sometimes.…

Not many healthy choices. After the long wait, about an hour, the menu selection was pretty much filled with fats and sugars, without a lot of healthy options. After inquiring about the composition of the dressings and sauces, we determined that if it doesn't have an over abundance of mayonnaise, it has an over abundance of sugar. The cheesecakes were nicely presented in a clean display case and the bakery staff is pretty well informed, except about the fat, sugar and calorie content.…
