This woman and her team are AMAZING. Make sure you support local. I drive from Richmond, KY in order to get these and it's well worth the drive. She has an AMAZING story and is always so nice. Make sure you follow her on Instagram and my favorite Tik Tok. Tell her A-Aron sent ya!!

We ordered the sampler at a cost of $67 which contains 8 slices of cheesecake. If one is looking for a firm, old school cheesecake look elsewhere. The consistency of these slices ranged from very soft to medium at best.

Our sampler contained:
1) Lemon raspberry- pleasant taste, light cheesecakes flavor, more raspberry lemon.

2) orange dream cycle - another light flavor in line with #1 but light on the orange and cheesecake.

3) A Samoas girlscout cookie slice with coconut. This one had a bolder , more rich flavor. I found this to be one of the better slices.

4) peanut butter white chocolate is heavy on the peanut butter, somewhat dry but rich tasting. This was one of the heavier weight cheesecakes. Expecting heavy PB taste, this delivers.

5) strawberry topped with what feels like strawberry gel. This was one of the firmer cheesecake slices.

6) banana pudding was nearly the consistency of banana pudding. No cheesecake flavor, definitely banana pudding. Falls or plops apart when removing from the box, super soft.

7) Caramel oreo was nearly tasteless considering all the caramel and oreo it's supposed to contain. I was expecting rich, even sweet.. so this was a disappointment.

8) Birthday cake. Another disappointment! This one features sprinkles and looks the part of cake! One bite leaves you wondering where the magician that conjured this out of air is hiding. Or like the old Wendy's where's the beef lady should pop out and ask where's the cake flavor?

Overall, we were let down by this sampler. The ratings and reviews are not in line with our experience or expectations for cheesecake. We will not be repeat customers.

After hearing good things around town, I decided to brave the cheesecake line at 1015am on the Monday before Christmas. Having been told when I called that it’s best to arrive 45 minutes prior to open, I did just that. When I finally got inside I was taken aback by the lack of bakery smell and empty display cases. They only have select slices of cheesecake available individually unless you pre order. Ok. Without any help from the person at the counter (who I ended up seeing on a local Facebook group afterwards and it was actually the owner) I selected 7 pieces of cheesecake, none of which were the flavor I waited in line for. In fact she almost made it seem like I should be rushing to order and her only exchange with me was to tell me that’s all they had. $44, 90 minutes out of the work day, 0% customer service and 7 slices of cheesecake later, I have somehow survived the experience. The actual cheesecake itself is creamy and very nice. The flavors and additions are mostly boxed toppings, cookies, candy, etc., i.e. Little Debbie Christmas tree (which was awful btw). Creative ideas, some not so great in execution. Beautiful presentations. People in line behind me coming from Indiana looked like they bought most of what was left. The woman in line behind them came from Lexington and I felt bad when she was talking about all the flavors she was excited for after I didn’t see any of them when I got inside. There were only about 8 people ahead of me in line, but at least 25 behind me and they ended up selling out about 20 minutes after I left. Being from the northeast I get that things move a little differently here. I’m used to going to a bakery or a local establishment close to the holidays to pick up things last minute and there are always options. But I’m sorry, I just don’t get it. Why doesn’t it smell like cheesecake? (It actually smelled kind of bad inside the establishment) Why was there almost nothing to purchase? I don’t get it. I’m glad I tried it, but I would never go back. But hey if it works for them, I digress…

Okay, so, we waited months to try this cheesecake. Every time we would wanna go, it would sell out. We live kinda far out. One day, they sold out 20 minutes before we got there on our trip there. We finally get there at open, stand in this long line, and honestly disappointed after waiting months and then standing in another line to order. The cheesecake is so expensive $8/$9 a slice is insane. The slices are pretty small as well. I mean, it’s good. It’s cheesecake. But the price for it, is just pretty high for the size. I could see at the most $6. But nearly $10 after tax is mind boggling. We have not been back for this reason alone and will not go back. I can not fathom paying close to $10 for a tiny slice of cheesecake. Again, it’s good, but not stand in line pay nearly $10 good.

Wow! Ordered a variety sampler cheesecake for my husband’s 50th. It was amazing! Trying all the different flavors was fun for everyone. The lemon blueberry and snickers were the favorites. Ordering and pick up was fast and easy. Thank you Big Nita’s!

The last few times we have gotten cheesecake here the flavors have been pretty out of the ordinary which is cool but haven't tasted the best. The staff is always very nice and they have a system that gets the line moving quickly. The quality just hasn't seemed the best since the flavor profile has gotten crazy.

Even if you have to stand in line, it moves quick. You walk in, order, and proceed around to the side, pick up your order, and out a side door. Nobody pushing to get back out the way they came in. Makes it so smooth! I got the pineapple upside down cheesecake cake, my daughter got Oreo chunk. Amazing is all I can say. Run dl, don't walk when her shop is open. You will not regret it!
