Cheesecake Carousel

After having lunch, my friend and I had a taste for something sweet. Cheesecake Carousel was in walking distance. It was at the corner of N. Tryon and Trade. Great open spot with a couple of other food trucks nearby. It's a super cute little half food truck. There was no one inside when we initially walked up even though the generator was running. We looked inside and it looked very clean. We waited about 15 mins or so and someone came to take our order. I ordered the mini strawberry and plain cheesecake. The strawberry was just ok. It had a strawberry like syrup poured over the top, but no real strawberries. It was just ok. The plain cheesecake tasted like it was out of the box and not homemade. My friend ordered the key lime cheesecake, and the peach cobbler, she said they both were really good. I would go back but try different flavors.

I had sampled their cheesecake once previously at a Yelp event. I was looking for a snack at Charlotte Shout and found their truck. They offer cheesecake ice cream, cheesecake slices, cheesecake minis, and dessert bars. They let you sample the ice cream. We sampled the strawberry cheesecake and banana pudding cheesecake ice creams and both were good. We decided to get two minis ($5). One strawberry and one banana pudding. Both were good, but we both loved the banana pudding the most. The spices and banana were mixed into the cheesecake and it worked really well. This is a great place to get some good cheesecake!

At first, I was hesitant to try cheesecake food truck but I'm glad I gave in to temptation. If you are in the mood for something sweet and happen to spot their food truck then look no further.My wife and I enjoyed everything we sampled but our favorite was the banana pudding mini cheesecake.

While dining out uptown off Tryon street, we googled "best cheesecakes in Charlotte"- low and behold the Cheesecake Carousel popped up right down the street. We walked a few minutes to find the food cart with the most friendly face. His wife makes all the cheesecakes fresh and by hand! As mentioned in other reviews the banana pudding minis are definitely my favorite so far. Though I have yet to be disappointed/underwhelmed by anything from here yet. We will continue recommended and patronize this uptown gem!

I stopped by the Cheesecake Carousel a couple weeks ago when I was in Rock Hill. Based off of other pictures, I was expecting a large display of cheesecake. It is a very tiny shop with a small display (may have moved from a previous location???).At any rate, I was immediately greeted and offered a sample, which I declined. I was a little underwhelmed at the selection and would have liked to see more, but then again, that saved me from getting more!I went with a slice of the cookies n' creme. While it was a great creamy consistency for a cheesecake, the flavor was just okay to me. I also would have preferred to have chunks of cookie to bite into, to bring out that cookie flavor. I would have also preferred more a higher cheesecake layer and less whipped cream layer on top.I honestly have just had much better cheesecake and would not come out of the way for this place again. It is not bad cheesecake by any means, just not the best. A bit of a disappointment, but I am glad that I tried.Kudos to the owners for having a local cheesecake shop, just wish I loved it.

I was downtown & wAnted something quick & sweet & I stumbled across this Vendor & omg was the cheesecake good! I got banana pudding & cookies & cream. The prices weren't horrible either. I will definitely be back for more.

Sampled the Reeses peanut butter cheesecake bite, and it was soft, rich and peanut buttery. I liked the crust and the flavor and the texture. The flavor reminds me of NYC cheesecake and is very delicious! The food truck has a Twitter account so you can find the location.

I recently celebrated a birthday. As a gift, a friend gave me these little chocolate covered cheesecake balls. I joked that they were bon bons for pretty girls. That was before my first bite. These little bites of heaven were simply DEELICIOUS!!!! I am particular about my cheesecake. Honestly, The Cheesecake Factory is overrated when it comes to the quality of their cheesecake. But these little creamy scrumptious decadently delightful guilty pleasures are just tiny bits of fantastic. The Cheesecake Carousel has certainly found a new patron and a huge supporter. Guess I can kick my diet to the curb. :( LolI can certainly see that the fuss is not hype. For quality cheesecake, this is my goto place even though it is 40 miles away. Well worth the drive!

My husband and I walked past Cheesecake Carousel after grabbing dinner in Uptown and decided to stop - best decision ever! We got the red velvet ice cream, and the NY and cookies and cream cheesecake minis. Everything was delicious - so creamy and rich. The service was quick and friendly too. We will definitely be back!

This is some of the best ice cream and cheesecake I've had. Very creamy cheesecake, almost like a frosting, which may not be for traditionalists but I liked it a lot. Ice cream was better than most places that just focus on ice cream. Would definitely recommend
