Best Cheesecake in JC??

Submitted by ihatetictoc t3_11fkrki in jerseycity

Going to a cheesecake battle themed dinner party where you have to bring a cheesecake from a bakery where you live.
I’m up against: Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and Hoboken. Naturally 💁🏻‍♂️ I want JC to win. Lmk your faves!!

I haven’t had these but pretty certain you could order one from Cocoa (their cakes & pies are awesome),

Rizzo’s in the heights apparently has amazing ones but not often so you’d need to call ahead. They’re old school so I feel like it’s a safe bet?

Alt approach: cheesecake ice cream from Toricos.

You're screwed. No way JC wins this one.

Ugh. I’m not a good loser. 😂 maybe I cheat instead.

I was just thinking about where to get a slice of cheesecake in DTJC. The only places I could think of are Shoprite and The Cheesecake Factory. Shoprite barely qualifies as good (but certainly not bad) and there has to be better than Cheesecake Factory (despite them having pretty good cheesecake). I hope somebody here has a better place for you.

I'm not going to lie, I have bought many slices from Acme. But Cheesecake Factory is much better.

Strictly JC: probably cheesecake factory. But that's a chain so kind of a cop-out

If you're willing to expand; strawberry cheesecake from Coach House in north bergen.

Monteleone's is a decent option if you don't want to go Factory route

I am a fan of Monteleone's cheesecake. I also recommend getting the Red Velvet Cake. I'm not usually a huge fan of cake, but it's so damn good.

I would bake my own and bring it in! No problem seeing how you would stack up.
