At Junior’s in Resorts World Las Vegas, it’s a fair bet that you’ll have cheesecake, but not certain—the menu is chockfull of other goodies, from sandwiches to sundaes. Many of the dishes are made popular by the original Junior’s out of New York.
If you’re here for brunch, start with a cocktail like the classic carajillo with Liquor 43 and espresso, or a mimosa or Bellini for those bubbles.
Specialties for Junior’s breakfasts include a Nova Scotia salmon and bagel platter, smoked salmon Benedict, and steak and eggs. Order off the all-day menu for the disco fries with mozzarella and mushroom gravy.
Sandwich fans are sure to find something spectacular here (and, in fact, an entire menu section is called Spectacular Sandwiches), with names like Something Different and Something Else, brisket and sliced steak, respectively. Something Different piles the beef on potato pancakes with mushroom gravy or au jus, while Something Else heaps sliced beef on rye with lettuce and tomato.
Other sandwich options include four types of Reubens, tuna melts and chopped liver with lettuce and onion. Junior’s also touts its steakburgers, with 10-ounce, charbroiled variations including a pastrami Swiss steakburger or a cheeseburger with sautéed onions. Entrées include Hungarian beef goulash, chicken Parmigiana and roast turkey with gravy, chestnut stuffing, mashed potato and cranberry sauce. In the mood for barbecue? Try a half-spring chicken, baby back ribs or a combo of both those items.
Then it’s on to the main event, those luscious desserts. There are 10 types of cheesecake on the menu, plus the Fresh Strawberry Cheese Pie. One of those varieties, the Raspberry Supreme Cheesecake, was introduced for National Cheesecake Day—the first new flavor from Junior’s in a year!
Black and white cookies, shakes, malts and ice cream sodas join Junior’s Mountain High Sundaes, with flavors like hot fudge, chocolate, marshmallow, strawberry and coffee—and “mountains of whipped cream.” For an even more over-the-top offering, check out the Cake Shakes. The New Yorker features a strawberry milkshake topped with a slice of that Fresh Strawberry Cheese Pie.
