History of Cheesecake Factory
Cheesecake Factory was founded by Evelyn Overton. She got the idea for a bakery after making a cheesecake for her husband’s employer in 1949, and she opened a small cheesecake shop in Detroit, Michigan, in the 1950s. Evelyn and her husband Oscar moved to the Woodland Hills area of Los Angeles in 1972, at which point she opened the first Cheesecake Factory location.
In 1978, Evelyn’s son David opened a small salad-and-sandwich restaurant in Beverly Hills that sold 10 varieties of cheesecakes on a one-page menu. The chain quickly grew successful, and by the 1990s, it had expanded to other locations in the United States.
Today, Cheesecake Factory has over 211 full-service restaurants, including 195 under the Cheesecake Factory brand, 14 under the Grand Lux Cafe brand and 2 under the RockSugar Pan Asian Kitchen brand. It has ten restaurants in the Middle East, including four in Dubai, three in Kuwait, two in Saudi Arabia and one in the Yas Mall in Abu Dhabi.
