The food is just "OK"... But the atmosphere is pretty cool for a small coffee diner It seems all the locals love it... So it was worth the visit The service was very good and the coffee was flowing. The restaurant can use a deep clean from head to toe... Starting off at the bathroom, which could probably use a remodel also... They say you can rate a restaurant by how clean its bathroom is But when I was walking in, there was like a fishing set up as part of the decor in the window. And it had a lot of dust on I think this place would score a solid five star from every customer if they just cleaned everything from top to bottom... Window windows... Chair... Bathroom This place was hopping... Was obviously a local favorite, and it was packed... So they should never rest on their laurels... Clean this place up and you guys will have a line out the door! Because the place had a lot of heart and soul... I'm giving it five stars read more

I had been to other Jerry Bob's location and never had a bad experience. I ordered Monte Cristo and it was delicious It was super busy on Saturday morning but our server was sweet and the food came in timely manner. You cant go wrong with Jerry Bob read more

Near the airport and multiple hotels, this lovely restaurant has plenty of parking in front and behind the building, with entrances on each side. Plenty of space in between tables with fast, friendly service. The food was made to order and served hot, with great flavor, texture, and mouthfeel. My only complaint was that when I went to use the restroom, there was no hot water, which concerns me. Did the rest of the place have hot water, or was it just the restroom? When I brought it to the staff's attention, they did not seem too concerned. read more

Recommend: Yes! Presentation: 3/5 Cleanliness: 4/5 Efficiency: 5/5 Customer Service: 5/5 Price: 5/5 Jerry Bobs has certainly become a common location for fast meals, hard working staff and get you in and out! Decor wise, it's JUST a simple cafe, seating here is limited but between the Staff and the food, ensure you make time because they pump out the food, keep your coffee cups filled and the people come ALL DAY LONG! No fancy seating, no compelling view, but those shouldn't matter since JB's is for eating and rolling out; and they cover this well if not better than Denny's TBH. Food is extremely well priced, quick, and tasty. Nothing fancy, nothing exotic just wash, rinse, repeat and they deliver it here as a business! Note on the Staff: You're doing it right!! Keep up the great work! read more

Excellent cooks and waitstaff. The patty melt is my favorite! The atmosphere is casual and they always acknowledge patrons that come back.

We are frequent customers for breakfast. Great place! Good food, excellent service and wonderful staff! They have lunch too. read more

Breakfast and Brunches are best here and busy, especially on the weekends. This Jerry Bob's has a Mexican focus and lots of the standard American options. Came with a group of four, There was a small 20 minute wait. Hint: There is very limited seats for waiting. You can park out front but is tight, better option is parking in the back, more room and there is a back entrance. NO Handicap Parking, you have to do your best and the best option is in the back. Seating is table and both inside, no outside seating. Staff were great and friendly. Food was good and tasted great. Prices are reasonable. Not fancy, it is cafe style. No fancy drinks, just the basics. Portios were good. No issues splitting the check. I'd recommend trying the Mexican items, but American fair was great. read more

Visiting and decided to give this a try because of reviews. Did not disappoint. We were seated right away, but got there in time. There was a line a little later starting around 10:30am on a week day. The wait staff was wonderful and quick. They were accommodating as well with creating breakfast tacos for me. We also had a waffle which was cooked good. Menu is pretty diversified for breakfast and lunch. They have both booths and tables. read more

Best Jerry Bobs in Tucson hands down! This day I was craving an American style breakfast so I chose a western omelette that was cooked to perfection. However, My usual here is a Mexican breakfast- chilaquiles are a must , or try one of their daily specials or caldos for a happy tummy! The service is spectacular and a good vibe every time, never missed. Provecho! read more

We stopped in this Jerry Bob's/Parra's near the airport today. Very impressed. The food was amazing. They have all the breakfast classics, and then some with a southwestern spin on it. My wife was torn between a dish that had an option of either machaca or chorizo, so they gave her both! And both were amazing. I had a breakfast plate and it came with incredible thick bacon. My brother had the tamales and said they were some of the best he's had. I can't say enough about how welcoming and warm the staff is. Actually, this was by far the friendliest staff I've ever had the pleasure of encountering. So, so attentive. It's a family run restaurant and they make you feel like family. Even the chef/owner hustled the food out to make sure we got it fresh off the grill. I highly recommend stopping in. read more

Quick service! Average food, potatoes in skillet breakfast appeared to be leftover baked potatoes that were fried to a crisp. Meat cubes were overcooked. Hubby had had ham and eggs and ham was burnt on the edges. Prices are higher than other comparable restaurants. read more

I'm back... kick rocks haters, but really, came back this time for chorizo plate it was simple, chorizo was cooked well with on the side frejoles, it was good. Great staff, they are busy though, I'd rather wait inside. Comida casera, dad had scambled eggs and bacon, fruit, sis had the ega and sausage (was not greasy). Simple breakfast was tasty. Locals, help your local family businesses overall when I return to this lovely state, I will check on this place again. Gracias amigos! read more

Service was poor. Twenty minute wait time was okay for a table busy during lunch. Then half hour for coffee and food after being seated. Burnt the toast, how do you burn toast? Huevos rancheros was like a toilet filled with a menstrual attack and a box of salt. Swiss and mushroom omelette was completely bland. Who are all these people waiting in line and giving this place such high marks? I don't understand. read more

I found this place on Yelp during my time in Tucson due to its amazing reviews. The place was very busy, but my service was still pretty quick. I got the chicken enchiladas, and they were very flavorful and filling. The ambiance was like an old school diner. I would definitely support this business again if I were to visit Tucson soon! read more

Jerry Bob's Restaurant - Enchiladas - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

The worst experience. First off, there was absolutely no decor. All white walls, a bit strange. There were people selling homemade donuts coming to the table. It was odd and I know is not compliant with food service operations.... However, that's only the tip of the experience. Waited for about 15 mins, saw tables that needed the be bussed but staff moved very slowly. Got seated and no one brought us menus. Finally got our drinks in and I looked up at the waitress, who said, "what? You didn't want whipped cream on the iced coffee? Need something else or something?" I said no..... asked for straws and never got them. Waited 45 mins with a screaming toddler and no order was ever taken. Was my first time coming to this location and will never be back. Terrible place. read more

Please note this rating is only for the Jerry Bob's on Valencia. This is the only location that I am aware of that has additional Mexican food items to their menu- which also equals double delicious. Huge portions. It's always busy but service is quick and attentive. Its a family friendly diner and parking available in the front and back. read more

Food: not very good menudo all stringy chorizo not fully cooked. Ambiance: very uninviting several dirty tables. SERVICE: Our server was HORRIBLE! He/ she never came back to give us refills or see if we needed anything. Asked for water 3 times got it on the 4th ASK ! The last straw was when they gave us the BILL ! Charged us $31 after I redid the calculations the bill was actually only $28.51 actually tried to MAKE MONEY OFF US. Will never return to this place horrible, don't like thieves that put down whatever THEY WANT TO CHARGE YOU! read more

A few years back, when our friends suggested meeting up for breakfast at Jerry Bob's we couldn't say yes fast enough. We love finding small business non-chain types of places to eat all around the country. Had never even heard of the place but obviously all of the locals had as the place was packed. On our first visit, I remember liking the enchiladas a lot. On our most recent trip I decided to try an omelet. I went with the Tres Amigos and was not disappointed. It was really good, and the hash browns were crispy and delicious. Wheat toast on the side with jam hit the spot as well. I highly recommend stopping here the next time you're passing through Tucson. Go there, get your name on the list, and enjoy some tasty options from their menu. read more

Good food . Great waitresses. Just had breakfast but it was good. Must be doing something right, always busy.

I don't know what I was expecting, but definitely was not thinking a 4-star! I was pleasantly surprised! First, this restaurant is right around the corner from the Tucson Airport and right next to Denny's restaurant. Came in and sat at the bar because there was a small wait for a party of two. Ordered some coffee and it was fresh, hot, & delicious. Next, we ordered their menudo and let me just tell you it's definitely one of the BEST I've tasted. I will definitely be back to try other dishes. The almost all female staff was amazing! Watching them work so effortlessly and efficiently was something to behold. They were quick with service and watching the kitchen chefs working was something amazing, too. The inside of the restaurant is a little dated and could be better designed with more tables, but other than that, this place is legit. read more

As I mentioned in my original review, I did quickly return to try the aforementioned Chicken Fried Steak. As I suspected from observing it on the original visit, it was amazing. It was huge, thin and crispy as well as covered in a delicious white gravy. I had grits as an included side along with toast and wasn't able to finish the whole meal-and I tried! This is a treasure of a restaurant near the airport. Highly recommended! read more

Had a late lunch upon arriving in Tucson. Food was very good. Our group had a variety of items and liked them all. Place was very busy so we had a 30 minute wait. Service was slow (it was crowded) but servers very very friendly. read more

Don't order the chilaquiles, complete ripoff for the price. Just a small hand full of chips (maybe 10) with sauce, beans, cheese and two eggs, no meat for $16. I left still hungry and went to a fast food restaurant afterwards. read more

So Jerry Bob's is almost ubiquitous here in the Old Pueblo. Low key breakfast and lunch, typical American fare. ( Some places also serve dinner hours.) I had never been to this one before but I was hungry and close by. It's typical inside , nothing fancy , but clean. First the staff are really friendly and great and you can even have some chit chat. Excellent service. Second, this particular establishment has a lot of Mexican dishes including different soups on different weekdays but menudo daily! I love menudo. However I was hungry for regular breakfast so I had 2 eggs scrambled with ham, wheat toast, and home fries. Everything was good especially the home fries. Next time I will get them "loaded " with cheese, peppers, onions. Coffee with free refills too. Price was right and my belly was full. What else can you expect? I definitely recommend this place and will be sure to try the huevos rancheros and menudo next time. read more

I have always loved Jerry Bob's and haven't had a bad experience until now. My partner and I put our name down on the waitlist for 2. There was another party of 2 who came in after us. However, they were seated before us even after they told the employee that we were first. She looked at us and seated them anyways. I also noticed that when the employee was seating other guests that she was just pointing to their table from across the restaurant instead of guiding them to their table. The guests seemed to be confused as well. The wait time was not an issue at all but the way she was sitting people was rude and inconsiderate. We decided to walk to Denny's next door and had a great breakfast. read more

For those that don't know Jerry Bob's - they are all over Tucson. I was digging around about it to see if they were owned by different people since the locations I have frequented all have a different vibe... and surprise this local chain started in Colorado? Anyway... THIS location is by far my favorite and the best hands down in my subjective opinion. My husband has been coming here since we moved here in 2005; early on as a work tradition before they would head out to the field. I have ventured down to this location (even though I have one closer to my house in Vail) when traveling or just because they are the best. Service is always super friendly, I think the whole family works here... or family and friend conglomerate? At any rate, I have always received five star service from this five star diner-esque establishment. Made to order their breakfasts are delicious, my favorite is the green chile/cheese omelet. My husband loves the Square meal or Huevos Garcia. If you are ever meandering down around the airport, pop in and give this group some love as they are locally owned and such a great group of people. And no, I did not get a free omelet for writing this. read more

Our flight was diverted to Tucson and we arrived very late. Our hotel recommended Jerry Bobs and I'm sure glad they did! Our breakfast was excellent!! Our server, Susie was superb, super friendly and helpful. The local vibe and ambiance was great here. Thanks Jerry Bobs for a great breakfast! read more

The food and staff is really what people are lined up for. We visited on a Sunday morning, and yes it was busy, and yes there was a wait. We opted to sit at the counter which was great, and less wait. Looking around the place, it's pretty stale, but we're in a restaurant because we're hungry. The food we ordered was terrific and fresh. It all tasted homemade and authentic. We'll stop by again, next time we're in town. read more

Another fanboy. Stopped in for breakfast after a night in Tucson. Very clean interior. I sat at the counter and watched the cooks work with precision and camaraderie, taking care with people's orders. The food is straightforward. I had a vegan tamale with corn a d green chili, some poached eggs and beans. Nothing wrong, and eggs were cooked "just so." The team spirit here is awesome and the workers friendly to customers. Nicely done!! Thanks read more

I purchased the ground beef tacos dorados from a Mexican-owned restaurant, but unfortunately, they lacked flavor. The beans and ground beef both tasted burn with burnt pieces of ground beef. When I brought this to the waitress and the owner's attention. I requested a refund, I was told that I still had to pay for the tacos. It was baffling to me how I was being charged for food that I couldn't even consume. The waitress informed me that the owner was indifferent to my concerns and insisted on charging me for the tacos. I re-ordered the tacos with the intention to donate them to a homeless Since I had to pay for them. I will never come back to this jerry bob's on Valencia again since this is the way they treat their customers. read more
