This is the best lemon cream cheese pie I have ever had! The filling is so smooth and creamy, and the crust is perfectly flaky. I will definitely be making this pie again and again.

This recipe is a waste of time. The pie was bland and flavorless.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my pie didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. The filling was a bit runny and the crust was too soft.
