The Cheesecake Factory - Honolulu

The food was good, but the cheesecakes definitely live up to their reputation. Massive portions but so see how much you order

I was impressed and surprised how much I enjoyed my meal here! I expected the Blande, tasteless Westie food I used to live in New Zealand, but the Brick Chicken bleededed me away. Perfectly fed (see: strong; unlikely restaurants at home), and service with a smile. The sweet potato fries were also amazing, just so crispy and satisfying. Definitely wait 2 hours, and very fair prices. Brick Chicken: 9/10 Sweet potatoes Fries: 9/10

It's a lively one!! We put our names at the reception and were given a hive and advised the waiting time would be about 20 minutes. That was a point. When we sat down, our waiter came by and imagined. When we told him we were from Australia, he was so excited, it turns out that he lived about 20 minutes from us when he worked out many years ago. The food was great, the food service was somewhat slower than normal, but given the fact that she was busy expecting it. I had a lot of bread and lemonade refills.

Came here for breakfast on the first day I was in Hawaii and was a little crazy about how long h=we had to wait. At first I was very unimpressed, as we waited for about 15 minutes to sit, although the place was very large and empty and the queue did not make very long for any reason. We have very frustrated that another group was let in before us because they would only wait about 5 minutes, unlike us waiting for 15. When we were sitting, we were placed outside, but still in the shade, so it doesn't feel hot and out of plaster. The waiter we got on our table was so nice and friendly and was very enthusiastic and seemed to have really enjoyed her job. Waiting was a bit tiring and long, but after we got our meals we were filled very quickly. The portion size was very large and you can probably divide between 2 people. The ambience is very different from where I was "before and was quite crowded because of the many tables all over the place. The food tasted great, but was nothing to woahhhh reaction type of food. After our meal we never came around to try some of thier famous cheesecakes even though the main meal was already full enough. Keen to come back and try her cheesecake next time I return to Hawaii : .

Food 10/10 Ambience 6/10 Staff 8/10 This is my all time favourite restaurant to go to in Waikiki! Food never disappoint and the portion size is massive! We normally order one main, one appetizer salad and a cheesecake for dessert to share between two people. The best cheesecake in my opinion is their oreo cheesecake. The only issue with this restaurant is that it's often really loud so it will be hard to talk to your friends at the table.
