Nutrition highlights on the Cheesecake Factory menu

Calories and protein on this page come only from The Cheesecake Factory's official nutrition information; the lowest-calorie pick leaves out drinks, sauces and add-ons. Items without an official figure show a dash. Where the official guide names an item a little differently, the note says which item the figures are for. Where the official guide gives figures for only part of an item, such as one slice of a pizza or a few pieces of an order, the calorie and protein columns say so (for example "/ slice"); those are not whole-item totals.

Allergens at Cheesecake Factory

The Cheesecake Factory posts its full nutritional guide online and in restaurants, and asks guests to tell their server about any food allergy, since not every ingredient appears on the menu. Many dishes contain milk, wheat, egg, soy or shellfish. The company says its kitchens are not allergen-free and use shared equipment and fryers, so it cannot guarantee any dish is free of an allergen.
