About Junior's Restaurant Times Square

Junior's began in Brooklyn in 1950, opened by Harry Rosen, and its cheesecake made the name. This branch sits at Broadway and West 45th Street in Times Square, steps from the theaters. The menu is big diner fare: burgers, Reubens and other deli sandwiches, plus a long list of cheesecakes. A cheeseburger costs $16.95 and a Reuben about $24. There are no reservations, only a waitlist, and it stays open until 1 a.m. on Friday and Saturday.
