This location is approximately 256% cooler than the one at Times Square. The Pastrami Reuben is really nice. The cheesecake is perfect. Just fcking perfect.

James Kiernan

First time I heard of Junior's during an episode of MTV's Making the Band and Diddy made the contestants walk across the BK bridge to get him a piece of cheesecake . Now I know it's worth it!

They are well known for their cheese cake but I actually don't even eat it from them. They have great food; shrimp parmesean, tuna melts , and one of the best breakfasts in Brooklyn (best cheese eggs )

Pura López

This cheesecake really lives up to the expectations and is soft and creamy as heaven. Its sea food is quite good too. Enjoy a complimentary slice showing your New York Pass card on meals over U$S 10.-

Tim Bushnell

Great vintage restaurant fare, large portions , in an atmosphere that feels like you stepped back in time. The dessert menu is the gem and the cheesecake here is arguably the best in the city

Lydia VanWormer

Loved the cheesecake filling, but wasn't a huge fan of the sponge cake crust. Chocolate mouse geese cake as amaze balls though!! Definitely rich enough to share!! :)

Avneesh Kohli

Check out all the cool Brooklyn memorabilia on the walls! This place is more than a restaurant that makes good cheesecake - it’s an institution

LA TONYA WADE

The cheesecake , rugelach , danishes , chocolate chocolate cake , chicken parm , chicken salad bacon club, corned beef pastrami sandwich , shrimp , BBQ chicken shrimp or rib combos.

Tariq Ahmad

Can't go wrong with any cheesecake flavor. If you're adventurous, get the New Yorker Cake Shake , which is a milkshake topped with a full slice of cheesecake .

PureWow

Sure, it’s totally touristy , but there’s a reason their creamy, not-too-sweet cheesecake has been an NYC must-have since 1950. Read more

The "Something Different," a self-proclaimed sandwich of brisket served between 2 perfectly seasoned potato pancakes with jus, sour cream , and applesauce on the side, is spectacular.

Gabriel Hayes

The best cheesecakes in all of New York City . My favorites are the Devils Food, the raspberry and the classic.

Valerie Seckler

Roasted by White Coffee , Junior's Brooklyn Blend satisfies. It calls to mind La Colombe Corsica coffee & rich Porto Rico roasts. JBB arabica beans are Central & South American. Cups are bottomless.

Steff Hind

Huge plates of food. Make sure you head to the Brooklyn location over the Manhattan ones. Chocolate fudge cakes is delish

Breakfast is good food average cheese cake very good .the bar on the side was the spot years ago had to cancel plans because of the bartender lol wonder if he's still there.

George Walters

Greatest Cheesecake in the world. Also great sandwiches . You basically can't go wrong here.

Cheston Lee

Don’t leave without trying the cheesecake ! Juniors is one of the greats in Brooklyn; the melting pot of late night dining and strong drinks at the bar .

Peggy Li

When you walk in, you can buy whole cheesecakes (different sizes available) from the bakery on your right OR individual slices of cheesecake from the takeout counter on your left.

Thomas Vander Wal

The cheesecake is worth the visit and may, just maybe, change your cheesecake ratings you have used in your life prior.

Lucy Maria

This place has some of the best cheesecake . The chocolate mousse cheesecake was so rich and yummy!

Nicolas Brugneaux

The classic cheesecake is the best you can get. The portions are very much American though - meaning ludicrously big. Worth your time 100%.

Jake Smith

Even if you're by yourself, post up at the bar , order a slice of cheesecake (obviously) and one of their extremely strong drinks (something with Grenadine maybe?). Strike up a conversation. Repeat.

Thomas Ngo

Original cheesecake is the best I've ever had. If you order an egg cream , get vanilla as chocolate is too sweet and strawberry has chunks of not so flavorful strawberry in it.

john hutcheson

For the love for all that is good, get the cheesecake . Tom Robbins (not the motivational guy) dedicated a chapter to this cheesecake in one of his novels . Yes, it is that good..

Omer Zach

The original cheesecake is the way to go.

Mark Turok

Great burgers . Twin deli sandwiches--- pastrami and corned beef . Great pickles and slaw at table good soup BEST CHEESECAKE ON EARTH period!

Jessica Wickham

Great American Diner with great breakfasts . Can recommend the eggs Benedict and omelettes !

Jeff S.

Juniors has the best cheesecake EVER... The oreo cookie cheesecake from Sweet Lady Jane in LA might be the only thing that compares to Juniors

Jeremy Sullivan

The crabbed stuffed shrimp is sooooo good. It's really filling. I had to take 2 home. They give you 4 of them and they are the size of golf balls, plus 2 sides

Chris Cookson

if you are a college student in the area, it's a PERFECT place to go before getting dropped off by parents. Otherwise, make sure to go there during Brooklyn Restaurant Week for a massive feast for $25

Mei Tam

The strawberry cheesecake or strawberry cheese pies are heavy but so delicious!!!!

Jim Taylor

While Juniors is a full service restaurant and bar serving classic American fare , it isn’t the steak or fish you come here for. As the name suggests, you come here for the cheesecake . Read more

Cuppy Cake

This place is amazing, service is better than 42nd street cause its tourist spot, they serve corn bread & roll, ambiance is awesome.near from mall .

salma mansoor

Try the devil's chocolate cheese cake !! OMG chocolate so rich and perfect amount of sweetness and the delicious melt in your mouth cheesecake . YUM YUM and moree YUM

Sherry Grubman

The sandwich was nothing to write home about, but the complimentary beets , pickles and slaw were amazingly good. The topper was the excellent Black & White cookies .

The pastrami sandwiches on rye are awesome. Some of the best in NYC.

Jenn Zhang

Excellent excellent cheesecake of course. Food is no better than fast food diner .

My favorite cake is the *chocolate mousse cheesecake* combining a layer of cheesecake on the bottom with a top layer of light creamy chocolate mousse and then covered in a chocolate coating.

Loved that the honey mustard that my chicken tenders came with had a hint of horseradish

French toast and Canadian Bacon was good. Original cheesecake was good too.

Daree Allen Nieves

Just come for dessert . My sandwich was barely lukewarm. Same for friend. Took a long time for anyone to ack our party of 7. Had to walk around to get assistance. Apple crumb cheesecake was good.

Hotel Indigo

Tempt your taste buds with a slice of Black Forest , made with Black Forest cherries and Meyer’s rum , or dig into a bowl of chocolate pudding with whipped cream .
