Editorial Review for Junior's – by Citysearch Staff
In Short
Junior's is a beloved destination for dessert hounds, nostalgia trippers and visitors to the Brooklyn Academy of Music. The famous cheesecake--for sale in a wide array of flavors and sizes in the front bakery, and for consumption in the sprawling orange-and-wood retro interior--is made fresh daily. The deli-diner-soul-food menu, featuring everything from matzo balls to barbecued chicken and ribs to 10-ounce burgers, is available until late. Breakfast draws a downtown Brooklyn business crowd.

You have to taste the cheesecake to believe it. I went to Juniors for the first time while in Brooklyn a few weeks ago. I got the original, plain cheesecake- I figured that was the best way to judge if the place was as good as I had heard. Well, I was not disappointed- I am pretty picky when it comes to cheesecake, but this was the best one I had ever had. I can't wait to go again and try some other kinds- they sounded delicious.
Pros: Fantastic cheesecake, cool historic atmosphere

Ahhhh Juniors. The first time I went to Juniors it was strictly for the cheesecake. The first time I had the Strawberry. Now that I have gone a few times it is always the pumpkin. I must say, not all of the at juniors is good. i had to try many things before i found one that i stick to. Now whenever i go i get the half roast chicken. it comes with spanish rice and this mushroom gravy which i ask for a whole bowl of. its the chicken and gravy that has me feigning for juniors. all i must say is find your favorite and stick to it. otherwise its not all its cracked up to be....its just a great historic place to dine.
