One problem we were aware of leading to their demise was the unresponsive landlord (that's YOU, Joe!), who would not fix a floor drain in their freezer case, so the premises reeked of sewage during the last couple of months they were open. Perfectly understandable reason to call it quits. Check the date on the only other review - it's from 2010. A lot has happened in 15 years. Yelp? What is the problem? When I was in the directory business, we had a service that verified listings. You apparently simply post a business and let it flap in the breeze forever and ever, amen. The least you could do is have a checkbox for "this business is closed" and have a follow-up team make a phone call or two... AND DELETE LISTINGS for establishments that no longer exist. Your service is descending into irrelevance.

They offer a wide variety of dishes with their large menu. Although it can be a little crowded to sit, it gives it a communal feeling and the decorum is very festive and upbeat.

If they paired that with my 2 favorites so far (using a cinnamon sugar tostada shell, or cinnamon sugar flour tortilla chips), and a little less whipped cream, they could be the winner thus far! They also ran out of corn flakes, and went above and beyond by going out to get some, and then not charging me for it!!! Then, the manager came over with another one , an experimentation from my suggestions , which was awesome, and also a little different with a bit of honey drizzle! Not to mention, that this is one of the freshest fried ice creams!

It's 2:23 pm and we just walked in stood for about 5 minutes, could hear people talking in the back, watched a woman with gray hair push a cart through the dining room but no one ever greeted us. How long are you supposed to stand in someone's establishment without being greeted before you leave? And by the other reviews if THIS is the nicest place in town, I'm glad we're looking for something else. You had your chance Jerry!

I decided to have the large shrimp and crab salad. The serving was presented, and I was overwhelmed at the volume of it. The shrimp and crab both were chilled and fresh. Lettuce, boiled egg, cheese, tomato, onion, radish, and carrot filled the large bowl. For my dressing I used an Italian spiced vinaigrette that was delightful. The pricing of the Dish met to my satisfaction. However, the service and camaraderie was one of the main reasons I visit Jerry's. They make you feel welcome and provide an enjoyable ambience within their professional environment. I was deeply satisfied, as always.
