Jerry's Mexican American Food Café
This place was a great find. A small locals spot. Pretty sure we were the only travelers there that night, and the place was packed, but we were seated fairly quickly.
Jerry's starts you out with the traditional chips and 3 salsas. All were addicting.
My wife ordered the enchilada, topped with an egg over easy. It came with rice, beans and salad plus she ordered a taquito as a side. That turned out to be enough for at least two people. Everything on her plate looked to be made from scratch and authentic Mexican food, far removed from anything one might end up with from Taco Bell. She said everything on her plate was delicious.
I ordered a combination plate that included a chili relleno, a chicken enchilada, a taco carne, that came with rice and beans (I think that might be standard with every plate of Mexican food).
Again the portions were generous nearly enough to feed a family and everything was most tasty.
But we didn't stop there. Since we were in New Mexico we had to once again have an order of sopapillas with honey. Hot and fresh out of the oven, and each about the side of a small loaf of bread. We only managed to eat two of the three on the plate. They were outstanding but we had maxed out on consumption for the day.
