OUR STORY An excellent cook, Evelyn Overton and her husband Oscar, dreamed of having a successful family business. Evelyn’s passion for baking soon led to the creation of her original cheesecake, a hit with everyone who tried it. By the early 1950s, while raising their two young children, David and Renee, Evelyn converted their basement into a professional bakery and supplied her original cheesecakes to the best local restaurants in Detroit. With their children grown, Evelyn and Oscar decided to move their business westward. Using the last of their savings, they opened a small bakery in Los Angeles to sell their original cheesecakes. It was 1972. They called the bakery The Cheesecake Factor y®. The original cheesecake led to an original restaurant, unique to this day, and in 1978 The Cheesecake Factory restaurant opened in Beverly Hills, California. With little knowledge of how to run a full scale restaurant but lots of intuition into what makes a dining experience great, their son David set out to offer their guests an experience they wouldn’t soon forget – generous portions with unlimited, inventive menu selections all made fresh with quality ingredients and served in a warm and casually comfortable setting. The restaurant was an immediate success! Today, The Cheesecake Factory continues to be led and inspired by the Overtons’ original spirit of innovation, quality, passion and commitment to excellence. Now more people than ever enjoy The Cheesecake Factory’s original food and desserts, coast to coast. OUR PROMISE The Cheesecake Factory strives to bring you the best possible food and service.

We have prepared this guide to assist our guests with food sensitivities or allergies and to help in identifying ingredients that may cause allergic reactions. While we strive to provide accurate allergen information, our menu items are freshly prepared in our kitchens and there is always a risk of cross contact with other allergens. This is true even when a menu item is special ordered to remove an allergen as an ingredient. Please keep this in mind when making a menu selection dependent upon our allergen information. Please be sure to tell us if you, or any members of your party, have any food sensitivities or allergies. This can help minimize risk and help ensure that your dining experience is exceptional. If you or a member of your party is severely allergic, please let one of our managers help you with your selection. HOW TO READ OUR GUIDE Shaded box indicates the Menu Item contains the allergen as an ingredient. If a special order option is listed below the box, the allergen can be removed as an ingredient. MILK EGG PEANUT TREENUT FISH SHELLFISH GLUTEN SOY Blank box indicates the Menu Item does not contain the allergen as an ingredient. MILK FISH GLUTEN SOY FRIED FOODS ALERT Many of our menu items are fried in shared fryer oil. This makes them especially susceptible to cross-contact with other food allergens. If a fried menu item is special ordered to exclude an allergen, it still may not be allergen-free because of fryer oil cross contact. We’ve identified allergens with an “ X” for cross contact in fryer oil when this risk may still be present. For these reasons, we recommend that guests with allergies avoid all fried menu items. Un-Shaded box with an “ X” for cross contact in fryer oil indicates the Menu Item potentially contains the allergen due to the risk of cross contact from shared fryer oil. MILK EG G X FIS HX SHELLFIS HX GLUTEN SOY Shaded box with an “X” for cross contact in fryer oil indicates the Menu Item contains the allergen as an ingredient. Even when “ordered without” a specific allergen, there is still a risk of cross contact from shared fryer oil.
