The Cheesecake Factory

Rittenhouse Square is home to many of the city’s best restaurants, so going to the Cheesecake Factory is like passing up on a Meek Mill show to watch a SEPTA worker freestyle on their lunch break. But the chain has a few things going for it: it’s a dependable backup if you can’t get in anywhere else, they have free bread, and there’s cheesecake. Plus, with its massive menu, there’s almost no type of cuisine that you can’t get. Stop by on a casual night for a few drinks, cheesesteak spring rolls (that kind of work), and be satisfied that you’re probably at the only restaurant in the neighborhood without a wait.
