Philly is about to get its first Cheesecake Factory, and it’s a fancy one: Super-discerning Inquirer architecture critic Inga Saffron described the new building just being finished at 15th and Walnut as “a creamy-rich glass box.” When doors open on June 23, Philadelphians will get a chance to find out what makes this American comfort food chain so popular — there are currently 165 full-service locations across the country.

The restaurant is famous for its huge portions and equally expansive menu, which contains features both endearing and abhorrent. For example, there is a cheesesteak offered, and it’s even spelled correctly (as a single word). However, it’s a “California Cheesesteak.”
