The Cheesecake Factory’s menu isn’t exactly known for being shy. Quite the opposite, in fact. The restaurant is precision-engineered to appeal to virtually anyone, with well over 250 items on its menu, most of them served in pretty hulking portions. It’s not a subtle dining experience, but hey, it gets the job done.

And just when you thought that Cheesecake Factory was done offering new things, it adds a whole load more onto everyone’s plate. Instagram account @snackwithzach just confirmed that the restaurant has 14 new menu items, due to drop by March 6 nationwide (although some of them you may have spotted already). Here’s what Cheesecake Factory’s adding to its menu.

New Apps

Hand-Breaded Pickle Fries with Spicy Ranch

Pickle spears are coated in a crunchy breading, deep-fried, and then paired with a creamy, spicy sauce. Perfect for when you want to feel like something’s a little lighter, but actually want something that’s quite the opposite. 

Spicy Jambalaya Arancini

Taking the classic flavors of arancini and spinning them on their head, these deep-fried balls are filled with Creole rice, Andouille sausage, peppers, and onions. 

Asian Chicken Nachos

Instead of nachos here, the base of these Asian chicken nachos is wonton chips – and they’re doused with Thai peanut sauce with sesame and wasabi creams.

BBQ Pork Belly Buns

A classic bun here, with the rich pork belly finished with coleslaw, crispy onions, and pickles. One for all the barbecue lovers out there. 

New Bowls

Baja Bowl

A spicy, flavorful bowl filled with rice, beans, salsa, sour cream, and guacamole, and then with your choice of honey chipotle shrimp, pork carnitas, or grilled chicken. We love it already. 

Asian Tenderloin Bowl

A melange of vegetables and garlic noodles, topped with tender steak pieces. 

Ahi Tuna Poke

Your classic poke bowl, with rice, ginger, and a host of fresh vegetables, upon which a pile of soy, sesame, and garlic-flavored sushi-grade Ahi tuna is added. Want to keep it light? Here’s your chance. 

New Entrees

Veggie Burger

A veggie burger that actually feels like the real thing, complete with vegan cheese and special sauce, and popped in a brioche bun. 

Skinnylicious Veggie Burger

Honestly? The same as above, but just slightly slimmed down and with no cheese, and served with a green salad.

Little Gem Lettuce Salad

Cheesecake Factory takes what could be a boring salad and amps it up here, with roasted apples, candied pecans, and blue cheese. 

New Drinks

Matcha Latte

A down-the-line matcha latte, which can be ordered hot or iced. 

Southern Peach Lemonade

A smooth, sweet, spicy cocktail, made with Basil Hayden bourbon, Giffard Peach Liqueur, and fresh lemon juice. The ideal way to start your meal. 

Fresh Cucumber Martini

A refreshing twist on a martini, made with Ketel One, Hendrick’s, and Elderflower Liqueur. We have to say, we’re not 100% convinced on this one, but hey…we still wanna try it. 

Spanish Old Fashioned

Cheesecake Factory’s version of a carajillo, which is almost closer to an Irish coffee, with a coffee base and a boozy finish.

Which one are you trying first?
