    This place scratches every itch for mexican food you could ask for. Queso is on point and although they don't really have real plates but instead baskets with aluminum foil the quality of the food more than makes up for it. The horchata has refills and the street tacos are fantastic. Highly suggest going in and sitting down for a meal.

    We stopped here by chance back in September 2018 on our way home from Shawnee wine country. I'm so glad we did. Their tacos Mexicanos are the best! I haven't had much luck with "authentic" Mexican food, let alone tacos since I've moved to Illinois. Their Carne Asada and carnitas are THE BOMB! I give them extra kudos for their creamy beans. Who knew little ol' Centralia had such a gem! If you're in the area or just passing through, so yourself a favor, stop here! I'm a taco snob, and this place definitely has my approval!

    Great food reasonable prices and very clean. Well lit and they have outside seating and drive thru. They can probably hold 30 people inside. Very clean restrooms and dining area. Food tacos taquitos and fries this visit where near perfect mild sauce was good but more like an enchilada sauce.

    Very good food, fast service, and you can tell it's all homemade. Good music playing in the background.

    Es la comida más mexicana más asquerosa que he probado. No tiene nada rico en el menú (la próxima agrego fotos).

    Chicken bowls and chicken cheese and fries are the two things we get. They always give us plenty and the food is good!

    This is my new favorite place for lunch when I'm in Centralia for work travels. I've had the fish and chilango tacos and both are yummy.

    Gone. Gone a LONG time ago. The food, drinks, atmosphere, and service were wonderful; we dined…read morethere two or three times a week when they were open. 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. While their chicken can be a little tough, the steak is by far the best I have ever ate at a Mexican restaurant.

    Driving home from St Louis in the middle of the day and decided to stop in Centralia for something…read moreto eat. We Yelped and the top choice was this place. 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!

    It was a hot summer night when I pulled into Jerry's to refresh myself of their delicious cuisine…read more The decision on the menu for something cool caused me to contemplate on something that I never tried. 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.
