Reviews for Jerry's Cafe in Gallup, NM
We were on a road trip and found Jerry?s randomly. I?m glad we did! Starting with the chips and salsa it was really good and... fresh tasting. Our meals were all excellent and the portions are massive.If you leave hungry it?s your fault. I had Miguel?sdelight and the enchiladas were great. Everyone at our table was completely happy Service from the waitress was great. Thewait to get seated was long and the hostess seemed to have forgotten about us for a bit but the food was worth the wait. Read more
I searched for places to eat as we drove from AZ to Albuquerque, NM. Jerry's Cafe was top rated. We stopped in for an early... dinner. I liked the family owned style & ordered Miguel's Delight. My husband got the grilled Chicken sandwich and our littleguy ordered the corn dog with fries. His meal came with a drink and a pudding cup. We all thought the meal was pretty good butnot good enough to write home about. The price of our meal was great compared to Northern AZ prices. The bathroom is little andso is the restaurant. We were sat within minutes and the wait staff came over to our table immediately to get us drinks. Thestaff was superb. There is additional parking directly across the front door of Jerry's. If you haven't eaten here it's a placethat you need to try. Read more
The food was delicious, prices were very reasonable, the service was swift and courageous, the restaurant was very clean (even... the restroom was spotless). I would recommend this place to friends and family. Next time we?re passing through, this is wherewe will eat. Read more
I was treated to breakfast here. Located in historic downtown, Gallup. It's a small restaurant with limited seating. We were... lucky to get a table without a wait. I was told sometimes there is a crowd lined up to get in. The menu is simple with a goodselection of breakfast items to choose from. I asked the waitress for recommendations. She happily suggested a few. I decidedto go with the stuffed sopapilla. Basically, fried bread filled with scramble eggs, hashbrowns, choice of meat topped with redor green sauce. I choose bacon and red sauce. This was a meal in itself. A hearty portion with just the right amount offilling. The red sauce was flavorful. One bite and I couldn't stop eating. The food was hot and once our order was placed wewere served quickly. The service was excellent. Our waitress was polite, friendly and efficient. She checked on us severaltimes. The bus boy person was a busy worker. Cleaning tables, getting/refilling water, constantly moving. Overall, this is agreat breakfast place, wish I discovered it sooner. Definitely recommend giving Jerry's a try. Read more
Friendly fast service. Accepted minor modifications of our orders with grace. We ate a LOT of green chili peppers in our time in... NM, Jerry's was no exception. Check out more about Gallup in our next post. Nomadic-serenity.com Read more
Flat enchiladas were available with an egg. Red and green sauces were both excellent. First chili relleno I've had for a long... time where I could taste the egg. Sopaipilla was an added treat to finish off the meal. Excellent! Read more
This is our first time in New Mexico. Driving through to Tucson Arizona we decided to stay for two nights and Jerry?s was... highly recommended. We went there at 630 pm on a Wednesday night and had a slight wait - we were glad to see it so full with somany places struggling these days! We were a family of 4 and had to wait about 15 minutes. If you were a couple you got infaster as there appeared to be more tables for 2 than 4. We did not mind the wait as we were able to talk to a few people whowere waiting for their take out food. They all raved about the food and are there very often. They always say the best placeto eat is where the locals do and they were right. After hearing from a few patrons how great the food was, what to order andsome history on the Gallup area we were seated We had the following dishes; chicken enchiladas, chicken sandwich, Jerry?sstuffed Sopaipilla and chicken taquitos. The service was very fast once we were seated and it seemed like the food just keptcoming out. Many staff members checked on us to ensure we did not need anything. Very friendly staff. We would highlyrecommend eating here even if there is a wait! Read more
A Gallup NM hotel employee highly recommended Jerry's Cafe for dinner and we loved it! Delicious Mexican American food,... including the best freshly made sopapillas I've ever had, and fantastic service by every server and the manager. When we travelthrough Gallup again, we will happily be coming back to Jerry's Cafe for more fabulous meals! Read more
