The Cheesecake Factory Beverly Hills - Review - Beverly Hills - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"If you’re eating at the Beverly Hills Cheesecake Factory, it’s because you want to tell someone you went to the original location of The Cheesecake Factory (that, or the hostess at South Beverly Grill just quoted you two hours for a table). History aside, this location doesn’t offer much to live up to its glamorous surroundings. The relatively small space on Beverly Drive—obscured by a big tree out front—is dark, dreary, and bizarrely low-energy. Perhaps most shockingly, there’s nothing that nods to the history of the place. At least put up a plaque." - Brant Cox
