A Taste at Jerry’s Famous Coffee Shop – Las Vegas NV

Jerry’s Famous Coffee Shop is located in Jerry’s Nugget Casino in Las Vegas Nevada.

Jerry’s Nugget Casino is privately owned by the Stamis Family since 1964. This casino has over 700 slot machines, a bingo parlor, a poker room, a sports book, a dance floor and stage. There is also Jerry’s in-house bakery that offers breads, cakes, pies, and cookies.

There is also Jerry’s Famous Coffee shop that offers a wide variety of mostly American Diner type eats and daily prime rib specials.

It isn’t a fancy place and looks diner-ish inside.

They have one of their early slot machines preserved on the wall.

I’m not usually a hamburger person but I read that Jerry’s Burgers are ground in-house daily from New York strip steaks and top round and are served on in-house made buns so burgers seemed like the way to go today.

I got the classic (lettuce, tomato, onions, pickle) with sweet potato fries. The burgers come in 4oz size and 1/2 lb size. The 1/2 pound is only something like $2 more so it makes sense to get the 1/2 pound burger. (I only ate 1/2 and had a meal for another day.)

The burger was prepared slightly less than medium in my opinion but it is good and is a juicy burger. The bun maybe is bigger than I like but is good, made in-house and doesn’t fall apart. But the sweet potato fries are especially good. I never had them before that stayed crisp and they have a great sweet potato flavor.

My husband tried a Western burger (2 slices bacon, spicy BBQ sauce, pepper jack cheese, and an onion ring with potato salad).

He thought it was a really good burger and liked the potato salad.

I made sure to save some room for dessert…..I was all set to try the signature dessert but they had lemon meringue pie as a special dessert today so I went with that.

The meringue is perfect with that just right taste. The lemon curd is tart with enough sweetness and the crust is thin like it should be.

Decided to come back and try dinner……..

Tried what I heard the waitress said that her favorite dish was ………The flame grilled rainbow trout….They start it off with a soup or salad. I picked the salad with blue cheese dressing.

The dressing is made in-house and is good. I was surprised that this salad also contains a good amount of cheddar cheese.

My husband started out with the soup of the day. It was a corn poblano chowder that he said was good.

In reasonable time the dinners arrive with garlic toasts.

The flame grilled rainbow trout with baked potato.

Chicken fried steak with hash browns.

Both were kind of average. Burgers and prime ribs and dessert are the recommended dishes here so far. (note we did not try the prime rib as of yet but on both of my visits I noticed that not all but most people were ordering the prime rib also other people I spoke to said they only go here for the prime rib special and dessert)

This time we tried the signature dessert. The strawberry ring.

If you enjoy cream puffs and strawberries then you’d like it. It’s kinda big. It’s enough for 3 or 4 people.

That was a little taste of Jerry’s Famous Coffee Shop at Jerry’s Nugget Casino.
