Cheesecake Factory Palo Alto to close

After more than a decade of serving its vast menu at 375 University Ave. in Palo Alto, The Cheesecake Factory will close in May.

Alethea Rowe, senior director of public relations, said in a statement that the company decided to "terminate" its lease in Palo Alto. She declined to comment on why or when the lease was set to expire.

The Cheesecake Factory's last day will be Saturday, May 26. Rowe said the company is working with the staff "to help transition them to other opportunities, including transfers to our other area restaurants."

The local outpost of the national chain opened in 2003.
