Jerri's We went here for breakfast in a Sunday morning around 9am. This place is cute. They had about 13 tables and a place to sit at the bar. They had a variety of menu items. This place specializes in Columbian food. They had traditional Colombian item as well as your traditional American breakfast items as well. I ordered a dish which was an arepa with steak, beans, cheese on it. It was good it was flavorful and the steak wasn't over cooked which was something I was a little nervous about. This place was nice and fast we got our food pretty quick! This place has street parking. They have a very small parking lot which hold probably about 6 cars behind the restaurant. This place looks like hole in the wall walking by it but the place is nice and clean and the food and staff are great.

I'm rarely this excited to give a review! My husband and I had time to burn and decided to have lunch. We settled on Moby Dick's only for realize they're not open for lunch. Yet right next door is Jerri's Luncheonette (fyi, serves far more than lunch!!). The place was clean, pretty packed and stayed that way for our time there. One look at the menu and I was sure we'd found a gem. It was hard not to over order and so we did! Enjoyed every bite! To top it off, our waitress was the kindest, most attentive lady. Our feast included Jerri's Combo to start, Mango smoothies, Lemon Chicken and my total comfort meal, Cazuela Tipica. Destination, SAVED!

Good food ; glad they expanded it since it was always packed ! . Fresh good service , and lots of food choices !!! A local gem

Great Colombian food and very affordable. The waiters are very friendly and attentive to customers. The restaurant is extremely well maintained and decorated. I'll continue coming back. Enjoyable experience.

This is a cozy and modern space with a super fast and friendly staff. They serve breakfast all day and have tons of lunch options at great affordable prices. They recently started doing dinners on some days so I can't wait to go try. I had the Jerri's omelette which had onions, peppers, chorizo, avocado and cheese. It was flavorful and filling. The home fries were crispy and well seasoned.

Jerri's is a Gem. We ordered mango juices (w. Water) just the right sweetness and flavor. Their empanadas came out with a nice crisp exterior and generous filling. Their Bandeja Paisa does not disappoint. Everything is so flavorful, down to the rice. Mondongo (tripe soup) is perfect for cold winter days. Service is always good, and on weekends and holidays expect a little bit of a wait, but totally worth it.

We heard Jerri's Luncheonette recently started serving Colombian dinners on certain days of the week, so we decided to stop by. This spot is so adorable and exceptionally clean! I'm sure during the day time for lunch and breakfast it's super cozy too! There were a lot of great choices on the menu, and we were definitely happy with our chipotle pasta, arroz con pollo y camarones, empanadas, and the Jerri's burger. We'll have to come back and try the breakfast! Friendly and attentive staff as well.

What an amazing spot! The staff was so incredible and some of the most kind people I have ever met. They offer breakfast food all day, and has a great classic diner feel to it with a twist - they also offer authentic Columbian food. Everything I tried was so delicious. I especially loved the empanadas - they were so crispy and the meat on the inside was so flavorful. For the main course, I got their signature omelette which was filled with onion, peppers, cheese, avocado, and Columbian sausage - and wow, I could eat that for breakfast everyday. The French toast was also immaculate with the perfect amount of bananas, strawberries and whipped cream on top. Their chicken wraps were also delicious, with a side of French fries and coleslaw. I 10/10 recommend getting their tres leches for dessert because it was the best I've had!

Excellent Excellent! Be hungry because you won't be disappointed. Jerris is Colombian-American food joint. A nice restaurant with wonderful staff ready to serve you. The menu has a variety of Colombian/ American plates for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Breakfast is served all day! The Omelettes are delicious ! They have sandwiches, Appetizers, main plates, French toasts, salads and more.. if you love Empanadas Colombian, OMG, you are in the right place ! They will have you liking your fingers and wanting more. They are small but soo flavorful! The restaurant itself is very clean , bright, casual and nice! Family friendly. For anyone ! Prices are great! Portions are big! You definitely can't beat it! If I'm In the area I'd love to go back! I left happy. Very satisfied with everything.

The restaurant we originally planned to go to was closed for "summer break", so we Yelped another spot and found Jerri's. Boy am glad that happened...Jerry's is freakin bomb.com!! I don't get to experience Columbian food much...or ever. So when I saw their menu, my eyes lite up! I was delightfully excited to order, because I knew that whatever I ordered was going to be good! Our table ordered the 2.2.2.2., Bandeja Paisa, and Huevos Pericos (substituted the fries for rice and beans). Everything was delicious! The rice and beans had subtle, but enough flavor that complemented my eggs and potatoes. The pork belly was crispy, fatty, gooooood and unhealthy lol. Plantains were also a nice touch to the dish! I forgot to ask my boyfriend about the steak. Too busy enjoying everything else. The arepa was ok. I'm not a big fan of anything flat made with cornmeal (like corn tortillas) mainly because they're too dry for me to eat (medical reasons). I will definitely be returning when I'm back in town!
