No basket of free chips and salsa, which is kinda unusual. So don’t bother getting them. The amount of food per entree is more than enough. The tacos are totally from scratch, and the enchiladas are more like burritos sizewise.

I introduced an out-of-town friend to Jonesy’s on this visit. She called it the “most gringo place” she’d ever seen! But she was totally won over by the food (she had the chimichanga dinner) and margaritas. I had the taco and enchilada dinner. Always a great place to eat!

The restaurant was clean and not very busy at all around 3pm food was hot and fresh and the waitress was very attentive always on time for refills on drinks ..I recommend this place to anyone that’s very hungry the food portions are big …I would have gave 5 stars but the listening and communication between waitress and cooks needs some attention for the orders to be correct ..other then that food and service was excellent

Wanted a margarita and stumbled onto this gem. Amazing Mexican casserole and Jonestown. We are not local but would stop if we were through here again. Everyone was friendly and food was great.

Great food. Great service. We were in Council Bluffs for a baseball tournament. Some call my husband Jonesy, and my son thought we should eat here. We were not disappointed. I had the Mexican casserole….and I didn’t end up with heartburn….

Prices are really reasonable here for dinner and the place was packed on. Friday night. I had the #3 Taco and Tamale combo. The taco was ok just looked weird with the salsa dripping down the side. My plate had the tamale or tamal, properly spelled, plus huge serving of guacamole and chips. It was very dry and didn’t taste fresh. Decor was not that traditional. Also why don’t they serve chips and salsa to everyone just like every other Mexican restaurant I’ve been to.

This place was great. Hand’s down best Mexican style restaurant in Council Bluffs. The prices are very reasonable and the portions are huge. We got margs as well, and they were well portioned. I would definitely recommend going here.
