Does junior's cheesecake still reign supreme in NYC? (New York, Lloyd: to buy, live)

[Psalm42]

Is Junior's cheesecake really all that? Were they really all that great to begin with? If not where can one find NYC's best cheesecake? (Maybe....gasp....cheesecake factory?)

I've had a couple slices from them but I wasn't floored by them. Unless I need to refresh my tastebuds.

S&S Cheesecake in the Bronx. Zagat's #1 Rated Cheesecake, Best Cheesecake NYC, NY Style Cheesecake

Factory/bakery at 238th Street off Broadway. They've been there like forever. If the bakery is closed, you used to be able to buy frozen cake at bodega down the block. Don't know if that's still true.

Best cheesecake ever.

I recall feeling disgusted after eating a slice of Juniors due to the big size, though there was no gun to my head saying I had to finish it.

Junior’s is overrated.

Try Lloyd’s carrot cake in Riverdale/Fieldstone. As delicious as the prices.
