Buford BarnesJuly 6, 2022Classic place for New York cheesecake, but grossly overpriced. Come here for the name, otherwise go somewhere like Eileen's.
Kevon SylvesterFebruary 6, 2011Avoid getting caught up in the cheesecake hype...try the german chocolate layer cake, you won't Regret it..unless your Diabetic
Prima VJanuary 21, 2022The cheesecake is just ok. I got the brownie explosion which was just mediocre. I had bbq chicken that could’ve used more sauce. The place isn’t what it’s used to be.
hayabusa bzJune 7, 2012My fav Menue is French Toast for Breakfast. Specially bread is very good at early morning
Dominique HernandezAugust 8, 2011Cheesecake is really awesome, but as far as the food goes, it's really just a diner. Nice little addition of mini pastries with breakfast though.
Can't beat the retro decor and the wide variety of food. Deli and barbecue!
Andrea F.June 17, 2013Spotted Liev Schreiber filming something for TropFest 2013 when we stopped by Junior's for breakfast on June 15.
Celia A.July 23, 2011Order the cheesesteak with bacon and sweet potato pie. Also order the apple crumb cheesecake (delicious).
I've been coming here for over 40 years and I don't care what anybody says this is the best cheese cake anywhere
Vincent LukbanMarch 15, 2015Fried chicken and yam fries are good. Seating is pretty tight and the waitress had to pass down the food because she couldn't squeeze through.
YvetteMarch 15, 2013This is real cheesecake ..expensive though . Whole strawberry will set up back $45-60 .
NicoleApril 28, 2013Cheesecake was no Cheesecake Factory. My only tip is that our waiter took FOREVER to come and help us to give us the check and never came to see if everything was ok. Better service is recommended.- Strawberry shortcake cheesecake is a strawberry cheesecake inserted between two layers of strawberry shortcake. That's a lot of cake!
Sueann MotiDecember 23, 2010The cheese cake was the best part! It melts in your mouth and the flavor just burst with deliciousness!!! =)
Burt LeacockApril 9, 2012Try the Southern Fried Chicken - Southern fried chicken breast and mashed potatoes. Yummy
Cindy BMay 25, 2013The jerk chix was EVERYTHING. ..however, the cheesecake was very heavy / chunky / disappointing. Now seeing that it is significantly better at room temperature. ..but still no Cheesecake Factory

"Brooklyn Bridge gets busy, so the Manhattan Bridge is a good alternative. Spectacular views of the Brooklyn Bridge, Lady Liberty and Manhattan’ Skyline (do pick the South side of the bridge though)."
