One of the few places that was open during the snow and cold the other day. We had wonderful food and great service while having lunch here. It was all prepared very well and did not disappoint. While the place was pretty much empty, the waitress did not stop making sure her whole restaurant looked great and ready for a full dining room while taking care of our orders and making sure to check in on us throughout our meal. We will definitely return here! The prices for the meals and drinks were not inflated. Surely priced so families can enjoy a meal here without breaking g the bank as well.

Food and service excellent! Great tacos. Love the bean dip. Enchilada sauce is the best.

Ordered the enchilada to share with my husband bc we knew it was big. It was good but barely warm, disappointing. If it was hot it would of been awesome. We ordered the queso and with the bottle of salsa that is on the table we put some of that in the cheese. It was hot and good. The chips were good but cold. We needed more chips and waited about ten minutes to get them, so our cheese was cold by then. They are under staffed. The waitresses were friendly just didn't have time for us. Overall worth $16, we drank water. I just wish the food would of been hot.

My parents and I came here last Saturday for lunch and it was pretty good.
We found a table, sat down, and gave our drink orders. After getting us the drinks, we ordered the food. We split the breaded mushrooms as an app and I ordered the 'Everything Burger'.
The food came out in a pretty good time. The waitress said that I didn't receive a lot of fries because they needed to make more, and she would bring out more in a little bit......but she never did. I also didn't ask for them but still, don't send out food unless the order is complete.
The burger was pretty tasty and really good deal for the money.
I may come back to get another really tasty, cheap burger.Helpful 2Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Dec 4, 2018
Thank goodness for the meat and cheese dip (THICK cheddar blend cheese with ground meat) and cheeseburger, otherwise it would have been closer to two stars.
I've ate at Jonesy's since I was a kid and this dip has been the one thing that draws me back. For years it was served with fresh warm fluffy flour chips; however, over the last year, these chips have turned cold and hard like they're prepared ahead of time. This time I tried a margarita to pair with the dip...bad decision. The drink looked cute served in a mason jar but it was a heavy 'mix' taste that may have went bad.
On the upside, my husband was pleasantly surprised with a bacon cheeseburger. The burger was juicy with the right amount of sauce and crisp bacon.
They had a new menu this time so hopefully they're trying to turn it around but they still have some work to do.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1 - Franklin P.Council Bluffs, IA066Jan 28, 2021
Smallest nacho I've ever gotten from here! I ordered a large nacho to go and it comes in a container smaller than a side nacho from Taco Bell. Been going to Jonesy's for years but this is just pathetic and doubt I will be back.

I have never been to a Jonesys taco house before, but my friend has, I live in council bluffs, so we went to this one instead of the Omaha location.
We got the meat and cheese dip, it was not good. And according to my friend, nothing even comparable to the other Jonesy's. Their fried flour tortilla chips are not great at all.
He got 2 tacos and he LOVES Jonesy's tacos, said they tasted absolutely nothing like the ones in Omaha. I got the smothered chimichanga. The rice had a weird seasoning on it that tasted terrible and the pork inside the chimichanga was charred and just tasted burnt and gross.
The ONE thing that was one point and was delicious, was their new corn poppers filled with corn and different cheeses. They are absolutely divine, but I can get those at mamas kitchen in Omaha, so I won't be coming here again. Really bad first impression.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Aaron M.Omaha, NE5512086Jul 13, 2017
Got invited by some wonderful friends to check out Taco Tuesday at Jonesy's. Seemed like a neat little neighborhood place and who doesn't like cheap tacos!
Well we where seated quickly and the place was packed so it goes without saying that the place must be slightly popular with the locals. Now i love local places it's kinda the whole beginning of my culinary adventure. But this place really wasn't impressive. First off let me say service was excellent. I mean anyone who can smile and wait on four kids and three adults on what seemed like a busy night has to be top notch. So thanks to our waitress who kept the orange pop flowing.
Tacos where ehh, like I make at home. Got a side of guacamole which was very bland and almost seemed pre packaged. Lastly my boy didn't finish his quesadilla so I took a bite and let's just say I tasted a bit "velveetay"
Any way we had fun and the kids ate some of their food. May be I'll return but...Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Kenzie E.Council Bluffs, IA3058753Sep 28, 2017
Decided to try this for a family dinner. Do not go here. You will be incredibly depressed about it.
The outside decor was pleasant and parking was easy.
First, we had to seat ourselves. Okay, not a problem. Service was moderately quick. Okay, cool.
Food. Ugh. :(
Sampler platter - seemed like everything I could have pulled from my freezer myself. It was fried, greasy, super salty and ALL TASTED THE SAME.
Shrimp dinner was like rubber. Sent it back.
Tostada had zero flavor. I could have pulled canned chicken put myself, put it on a plate and microwaved it.
Mexican pizza was just not good at all because it had no seasoning on the meat. Crust was overcooked. Needed lots more sauce.
The chicken enchiladas were alright. Best part was the sauce.
Oh, no complimentary chips and salsa. Like a cherry on top.
That's it. Don't go.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0
