My fiance and I love coming to Palenque! Amazing food and atmosphere. The staff is amazing and accommodating. Very grateful it’s close to home with the food and drinks being as delicious as they are. They offer Gluten Free, Vegan, and Vegetarian options. Also, have a house Margarita! Holy cow it’s delicious! Especially on Mondays when that are two-for-one!
We were there with some friends that were gluten free and they were so accommodating . And it was our friend's anniversary so the manager brought some special treats for the chocolate
It was a very nice night.
Tried this place on a whim. Seated immediately about 7 p.m. on a Thursday. The food and service were excellent. My husband got the ribeye and I had the ahi tuna, we shared the kickin shrimp app and each had a specialty cocktail. Both meals were delicious, big servings and very filling. Hannah was our server and she was both knowledgeable and personable. She helped me avoid my food allergies in entrees and indulged my curiosity by bringing the brunch menu for me to peruse for future plans. Y'all are sleeping on these rice puffs as a brunch offering! You could have gluten free doughnuts. Or a poached egg on a rice puff with some friend scallions? Get on that!
Loved our experience. We will be back. All props to Hannah.
I definitely enjoy Freddy's steak burgers. For the gluten free crowd they will Lettuce wrap the burgers for you. The fries are not gluten free.
The ice cream options are great. Overall it is an enjoyable lunch or dinner option.
This was my first time eating at Southside. We ordered 2 pizzas (1GF for my husband) and the employee took extra time to make sure there wouldn’t be gluten in the sausage. She was super kind, the food was ready quickly, and everything was delish! We have a new go-to for pizza :)
Took my grandchildren here to play my first D&D game and had such a marvelous time! I learned so much and we had lots of the other customers wanting to know what we were playing. The kids had a great time, and each got to choose something to take home. We bought dice, books and blank character sheets. Nice selection of all these things, as well as lots of games. You can even check out a game to play before you purchase it.
The drinks were delicious, a fruit smoothie, dairy-free hot cocoa, and some gluten-free snacks.
My family and I decided to take a spontaneous trip, and it was an incredible experience! Taylor was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The burgers were absolutely fantastic, and the drinks were refreshing. We had no idea about this place, but now we’ve discovered our new favorite burger spot! Thanks again, Taylor, for the delicious gluten-free cake. There was a small wait, but it was nothing too long. We’ll definitely be back again!

The Cheesecake Factory: A Feast of Flavor and Variety
The Cheesecake Factory is more than just a restaurant—it’s a full-blown dining experience. Known for its extensive menu, generous portions, and, of course, its world-famous cheesecake, this American restaurant chain has earned a reputation as a reliable go-to for a wide variety of dining occasions. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion, grabbing dinner with friends, or just indulging in a slice of rich dessert, The Cheesecake Factory offers something for nearly everyone.
Menu Variety and Food Quality
Perhaps the most striking thing about The Cheesecake Factory is its massive menu. At over 20 pages long, it reads more like a culinary novel than a typical restaurant menu. From Asian-inspired dishes like orange chicken and Thai lettuce wraps to Italian classics like fettuccine alfredo and lasagna, American comfort food, fresh seafood, gourmet burgers, and even a dedicated “SkinnyLicious” section for lighter fare—the choices are nearly endless.
This variety is both a blessing and a curse. On the positive side, it means that diners with different tastes or dietary needs can all find something satisfying. Vegetarian? Gluten-free? Watching calories? You’ll still have options. On the flip side, the vast selection can make it difficult to decide what to order, and sometimes, not every dish hits the mark. Still, the majority of the food is consistently flavorful
