Saisaki Asian Fusion
There’s something exciting about trying a unique twist on cheesecake, and Saisaki Asian Fusion delivered exactly that with their Tempura Cheesecake. At first glance, the dish immediately caught my attention—golden, lightly battered, and drizzled with chocolate sauce, it promised an experience unlike any traditional slice. The highlight of this dessert was undoubtedly the tempura frying.…

Junior’s Restaurant & Bakery
When planning my trip to New York City, I knew I had to visit one of the most talked-about dessert spots: Junior’s. Known across the country for its “world-famous” cheesecake, I had high hopes that this would be a highlight of my journey. Unfortunately, as is sometimes the case when expectations run high, the experience…

Madrones
Some reviews stick with you, and others need a second chance. My first visit to Madrones for their New York-style cheesecake was before Cheesecake with Jake really took off, and at the time, I gave it a modest 6/10. But with an updated perspective and a fresh ranking system, I decided to revisit this cheesecake…

Firestone’s Culinary Tavern
This review has been sitting in my notes for quite some time, and unfortunately, I never got around to posting it before Firestone’s Culinary Tavern closed its doors. But a cheesecake this good deserves to be remembered. I had the pleasure of trying their Dulce de Leche Cheesecake, and it was nothing short of a…

Originally rated a 9/10, this dessert left such a lasting impression that I had to do something I’ve never done before—bump it…

Longhorn Steakhouse
I recently had the pleasure of indulging in Longhorn Steakhouse’s remarkable cheesecake, and let me tell you, it was a true masterpiece. From the moment it was placed in front of me, I knew I was in for a treat. The presentation alone was enough to catch my attention—a perfectly round, generously portioned cheesecake sitting…

Old Dominion Grill and Sushi
When it comes to my love for food, two things always take the spotlight: cheesecake and sushi. So when a sushi craving led me to Old Dominion Grill and Sushi, I never expected to stumble upon a truly unique dessert experience. Among the menu’s offerings was something I couldn’t pass up—tempura cheesecake. Given that I…

Callahan’s Seafood Bar & Grill
Upon ordering the homemade New York cheesecake, expectations were naturally high, especially given that this restaurant had recently hosted Gordon Ramsay. Unfortunately, the dessert did not live up to those expectations. The crust was notably hard—so much so that tapping it with a fork produced an audible knock. This, combined with a lack of flavor…

Bonefish Grill
We went out with a group of friends to celebrate a promotion of one of our own, and we decided to head over to Bonefish Grill, knowing that we could find a delicious cheesecake to rate. The plating of the cheesecake was simple yet elegant, served on a traditional circular white glass plate without any…
