Jerry's is exactly what it needs to be. It's not gourmet by any means, but it's a heart-filled spot to have a meal.

They use American cheese and margarine, but I find that endearing. The coffee is strong and dark, and the breakfast staples are classic and tasty.

The service was excellent. My girlfriend likes extra crispy bacon, and our server asked if it was cooked to her liking when the meal was brought out. I can't remember any other restaurant where that's happened before. It just shows a dedication to providing a good meal.

Side note: it's cash only, so plan accordingly!

Under new owners from what I understand.
Biscuits and gravy- Biscuits were more cornbread like, and gravy was runny and tasted more of clam chowder then gravy.

Eggs Bennidict- eggs under poached and whites were still runny, hollandaise sauce was runny and tasted like the gravy did. The Canadian bacon and English muffin were cooked properly.

The 2 eggs 2 bacon hashbrowns and toast that my husband were cooked to over easy and just right, not to crispy on the bacon, LARGE white toast, hashbrowns were lightly browned.

Coffee was good, service was very sweet, cook was helpful and guests were nice too.

The gold standard of diners. You can’t force the organic greatness of a place this good. It just *is*. Places like Jerry’s are restaurants after my own heart. The simple breakfast—eggs, bacon, toast—hits better than Little Jerry at a cockfight. (Seinfeld fans, you know.)

If the food in Egypt had been this good, Moses might’ve reconsidered the whole Exodus thing.

CASH ONLY. I love this little Mexican diner. Stopped in for my first time this past weekend and drove up from West LA specifically for this little coffee shop. I am working my way through a list of all coffee shops and diners in LA County so next up on my list are the handful that are in Simi Valley. Jerry’s definitely caters to the Hispanic community, which being from San Diego myself this is something that I also enjoy. I am not Hispanic myself, but the staff made me feel very welcome so don’t think that it’s not for everybody type of place. It’s in a really sleepy part of Simi Valley tucked at the bottom of a group of hills which makes for a great backdrop. There is a small parking lot attached so parking is really easy to find. It’s important to know that it is cash only but the prices are extremely low because of that and they do have an ATM on site. Our waitress was extremely polite and everything that we ordered came out very fast. Inside is quite small, but they do have a lot of traditional seating options such as counter, booths, and tables. I love how the whole restaurant is built around the kitchen, so you can see, hear, and smell all the food being prepared.

I would say that this is one of the best Chicken Fried Steaks that I’ve had in a long time. I wanted to order a diner classic so I chose that and was very impressed with the meal. The eggs were cooked perfectly, the meat was not overcooked, and overall it just had some great flavors. There were a lot of other options on the menu that I wanted to order so I plan to be back in the near future to try more. The staff was also extremely polite and insisted that I take a coffee to go which I happily accepted and it really hit the spot on the long drive home. This is honestly a great local diner, but I would honestly recommend to anyone in LA and feel that it was worth the 30+ minute drive to get there.

I go here frequently to grab a quick breakfast, and it's always been great. The service is great and speedy, and the food is always delicious. Definitely bring cash, as they don't take card. However, if you forget there is an ATM you can use. With fee's of course. Parking can be a hassle at times but it's not a deal breaker for me.

Great breakfast especially for the price and portions. It's cash only but definitely worth stopping by if in Simi
