Jerry's Cafe

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 travel through Gallup again, we will happily be coming back to Jerry's Cafe for more fabulous meals!

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’s delight and the enchiladas were great. Everyone at our table was completely happy Service from the waitress was great. The wait to get seated was long and the hostess seemed to have forgotten about us for a bit but the food was worth the wait.

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 little guy ordered the corn dog with fries. His meal came with a drink and a pudding cup. We all thought the meal was pretty good but not good enough to write home about. The price of our meal was great compared to Northern AZ prices. The bathroom is little and so is the restaurant. We were sat within minutes and the wait staff came over to our table immediately to get us drinks. The staff was superb. There is additional parking directly across the front door of Jerry's. If you haven't eaten here it's a place that you need to try.

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 where we will eat.

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 good selection of breakfast items to choose from. I asked the waitress for recommendations. She happily suggested a few. I decided to go with the stuffed sopapilla. Basically, fried bread filled with scramble eggs, hashbrowns, choice of meat topped with red or green sauce. I choose bacon and red sauce. This was a meal in itself. A hearty portion with just the right amount of filling. The red sauce was flavorful. One bite and I couldn't stop eating. The food was hot and once our order was placed we were served quickly. The service was excellent. Our waitress was polite, friendly and efficient. She checked on us several times. The bus boy person was a busy worker. Cleaning tables, getting/refilling water, constantly moving. Overall, this is a great breakfast place, wish I discovered it sooner. Definitely recommend giving Jerry's a try.
