What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
The Cheesecake Empori-Yum is celebrated for its incredibly diverse and delicious cheesecake flavors, alongside unique savory options like soul food egg rolls and the 'World' Pizza. While many praise the unique taste and black-owned aspect, some reviews mention slow service and difficulty distinguishing between similar egg roll flavors.
"Alright…. They warned me and I got the itis afterwards.. my experience listed below… So, my sweet tooth led me to the Cheesecake Empori-yum, but my stomach had me ordering the “World” Pizza. 😴
From the cheesecake Emproi-yum, I ordered the golden Oreo and the cinnamon roll cheesecakes. Of the two, the cinnamon roll was the clear winner!! It’s an untraditional take on a cheesecake, and really borders being a pie/ cake. Whatever you want to call it, it’s magically delicious..
Now onto this magical Pizza… if you order chicken tenders or burgers everywhere you got, are picky, or just don’t like trying new things take taste buds elsewhere on the menu. The pizza has ALOT… I’d equate one slice to like 2-3 of a regular pizza. A ton of protein that oddly works well together with taste of sweet and savory, sometimes separate sometimes all at once. It all depends on the bite. The crust was a house made garlic herb crust. Beware.. you will have to wait for this pizza to be prepared. Which is expected unless you order ahead.
This pizza is a must try if you want to spice things up in your life, experience new things, or actually explore the culinary art mixture of Montgomery.
This place is a short drive from downtown, but we’ll worth it. Kudos to the owners and chef for this experience. I look forward to stopping back here in the future.

"After hearing about this place for years I finally ended up nearby at lunch and tried the egg rolls and Cheesecake. The building is like most on Mullberry, small, old and charming. The parking is limited and I got blocked in for a little after getting my food as someone else ordered. The egg rolls weren't bad. I got three different ones (Jerk Chicken, Chicken Alfredo, and Southern) but had trouble telling them apart. They also had separate dips but I wasn't 100% which went with what. The cheesecake was also pretty good. It's a place worth trying but I am not running or knocking anyone over to get back but I do support small business."

"Had to try them on a friend's recommendation. I was not disappointed. They have so many flavors, and the cheesecake nachos are delicious! We also got red velvet and pecan pie cheesecake. Both were very good."
