This article reads like a press release or a paraphrase of company provided information. Some counter point and criticism would be welcome.Wideeyedraven 08:41, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Criticism and Praise

If you have to wait that long, doesn't that mean the food is good?

To whoever asked that... Goodness no. I've seen the wait for a table at Denny's hit 90 minutes on a Saturday morning, and the food there is about as ordinary American as it can possibly be. CosmicJester 11:24, 9 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sources?

The Cheesecake Factory article in its current state does not reference even a single source of information. This is a violation of Wikipedia's quality standards. See Wikipedia:Citing sources for more details. It may be necessary to add the "This article does not cite its references or sources" warning to the top of the page if this is not corrected.

I'll see if I can improve this one a bit sometime soon. In the meantime, I'm taking out the remark "Diners have also complained that despite the generous portions, the quality of the food is pedestrian," which is not only unsourced and weasel-words, but also completely contradictory to the opinion of *every single person* I've ever met who has been to a Cheesecake Factory (about 20, from all different locations and walks of life). The food is far from pedestrian. Blue Crest 15:48, 25 July 2007 (UTC)

FWIW, "pedestrian" would be more praise than I'd be willing to give it. Granted, I've only had it twice, but everyone I've talked to about it here (D.C. area) thought it was lousy. Also, "generous portions" is not a good thing - you pay a lot for more food than you can possibly eat at one sitting. Fasrad (talk) 23:18, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

I'm taking out the "Chris's Crazy Chocolate Cake" part, because, that isn't on the menu. They have Chris's Outragous Cake and Craig's Crazy Carrot Cake Cheesecake.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:CheesecakeFactoryLogo1.png

Image:CheesecakeFactoryLogo1.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
