Business Summary  what's this?
For two star American, try Cheesecake Factory (The Atrium) in the Greater Boston area. This restaurant is situated in the Chestnut Hill neighborhood. This place features outdoor dining. Upon entering the restaurant, you'll find a family atmosphere. This place features breakfast and brunch. This place is handicap accessible and good for groups. Diners found the food great the only bad thing I can say is the chicken terriyaki was gross.

pretty good for a chain. it can get pricey and it is hit or miss but you gotta remember it's a chain and you are most likely in a mall
