Best

The service was a little iffy but we were there at a busy time. I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich with american cheese and bacon and it was good. We went back after seeing a br...

The wait staff needs sensitivity training in regard to the white community. I really felt there was an atmosphere of reverse discrimination and it appeared to be prejudice towards...

Don't even look at this place if you're dieting 6/18/2006

This diner is a calorie counters nightmare. It's nearly impossible to pass this establishment without noticing the delectable desserts in their window. Only the most stalwart vegans and dieticians could look at these delights without salivating. Let there be no doubt, this place needs no reviews. Its reputation for serving the most dense delicious cheesecake in New York City proceeds it. Among others they have served presidents, statesmen and celebrities and for a somewhat pricey fee they will serve you the best strawberry, pineapple or naked cheesecake in Kings County. Their chocolate cake and lemon meringue pie is nothing to sneeze at either although, it is not what Juniors is known for. Their matzo ball soup isnt bad, it was good. Nothing to rave about but you dont go to Juniors for their soup. Their only competition cheesecake wise is the Stagedoor Deli and Carnegie Deli. Pros: Their delectable desserts Cons: the price per slice, the crowd more

'' im moving to brooklyn'' 5/13/2006

The chicken tenders, cosala,pickels and more food were the best and the cake was cheap but the food is expensive like 50$ and 80$ for 6 people.Overall ,food,ambience,service were the best and highly reccomended ever. and much much better than the grand central one. The pastrami here is good and the cake was ok. Pros: everything was good, everything was good, everything was good Cons: nothing bad, nothing bad, nothing bad more

Yummy, but kind of expensive 5/10/2006

I'm a poor starving artist, so a $40 - $50 bill at Juniors (for sodas, appetizer, dinner, and dessert for 2) is a little much, especially since it's a very ""diner"" type atmosphere. However, the food is very good and the cheesecake is awesome (and they even have sugar free!) It's worth it, but I'll probably only go every now and then. The service was very good. Pros: Cheesecake, Quality of Food, Prompt Service Cons: Kind of expensive more

It's the Cheesecake.. 12/21/2005

Love it, the Cheesecake, that's why I come and that's what I get, just Cheesecake. So if your in NY and specific in Brooklyn stop here and get some piece for yourself, if your in Manhatten you can get some at Grand Central, but you have to try the cheescake... Pros: cheesecake more

Only eat the cheesecake and that's it. 7/10/2005

I've been a few times for dinner and dessert and the food is always old-tasting and bland. Never tasty. ONLY the cheesecake is good. Stick with that and a cup of coffee and that's about it. Pros: Cheesecake Cons: Rest of menu more

Cheesecake Only 8/5/2003

I've had Junior's cheesecake quite a few times but never the food. I ventured for the first time to sit down for a meal. I was not impressed with the food at all. Nothing exciting or even worth mentioning. Soda was near flat. Prices were high. No cream soda (that's outrageous in a place like Junior's). For this type of food, I would stick to a Jewish Deli. I mean they served pastrami on two mini onion rolls. The cheesecake is excellent of course. Pros: Cheesecake, Close to Metrotech Cons: High prices, No cream soda, Bland food more

The food ""rocks""!! 6/18/2003

I don't know if the peole who wrote the othe reviews actually ""ate"" dinner there because I did and the food was out of this world!! The portions were big, the food was incredible..never mind the best cheesecake in the world. Everyone should go there for dinner. I had the Hungarian Goulash and my boyfriend had the turkey dinner and we both agreed they were the best we ever had! more

Cheesecake and egg creams! 12/28/2002

I've never had a meal here, but I can tell you that Junior's serves up the best (and biggest) portions of cheesecake in Brooklyn, if not the whole city. The egg creams are also really good. You can also order a cheesecake and have Junior's ship it to your chosen lucky recipient; I had one sent to my mom for her birthday several years ago and it was a big hit. Pros: the cheesecake, huge menu, egg creams more

great cheesecake 10/16/2002

Haven't try anything other than cheesecake at this place. This is the only place that has ""great"" cheesecake in the Tri State area and they are famous for it. The guy who served me seem a little impatient when i started asking question. But it is indeed very good value for the quality you get. My friend said she tried getting the cake in individual piece at take out and maybe that's been sitting in the fridge for too long, I was told that it doesn't taste good. But I've been getting the whole cake, the 6"" one and it's been great. more

best cheesecake! 10/10/2002

Junios cheesecake might as well be world famous! the selection, choices, richness and deliciousness cannot be outdone! A popular diner in the Metro Tch Brooklyn area catering to local brooklyn ites or the wall street financial back office employees of Metrotech. a real treat! The food offered is great too, more than a typical diner, wortha trip! more

Junior's Gets a Senior Critique From Me! 7/26/2002

I loved it. Bill Clinton ate there. His pic is up soon as you walk in. It's a rather large restaurant that was packed when we went. Despite the fact that it was cold as Antartica in the winter, I enjoyed myself. The waiter we had was acting kinda weird but besides that, everything was great! more

All About the Cheescake 5/20/2002

The food here is OK--go for brunch if you're going to go for any meal--and you get big portions, but Juniors is all about the cheesecake. It is the best. None other can compare. more
