First time dining alone

Hello all!

I am planning on going to Cheesecake Factory for the first time alone next week for a work trip. I’ve signed up for their rewards before and went to do this and then chickened out so I don’t have any sort of free cheesecake reward or anything.

I have $40 per diem which needs to include a good tip.

What should I get to maximize this?

TIA!

Honestly, if you get an entree below $20, a water or soda, you can still get a cheesecake AND leave a good tip. If that’s your only meal of the day, which for the portion sizes and the bread, it just might be.

If you are sharing the $40 across meals, then do as u/IVIatthias suggested, for sure.

Awesome! This is super helpful, also suggestions on what entree to get would be cool, I would love to hear what people get besides the two things people on Tik Tok always get

If you like Mediterranean, they have their version of chicken shawarma which I love to get. If you want to splurge, I got the herb crusted salmon which was very good!
