Best Southwestern food near Council Bluffs, Iowa, United States
Reviews on Southwestern food in Council Bluffs, Iowa, United States. Council Bluffs is a city in and the county seat of Pottawattamie County, Iowa, United States. The city is the most populous in Southwest Iowa, and a principal city in the Omaha–Council Bluffs metropolitan area. It is located on the east bank of the Missouri River, across from Omaha, Nebraska. Council Bluffs was known, until at least 1853, as Kanesville. It was the historic starting point of the Mormon Trail.

Casual dining with a chef-driven menu of tacos, tortas, and small plates specializing in Mexican seafood. Our bar offerings include Tequila-centric craft cocktails, tequila flights, margaritas, and beer.

This is a neat little place with lots of outdoor seating. Not a lot of menu choices, but what they do have is interesting. We had the salsa trio, tacos and tortas. The carnitas was super good, and the brisket was even better. For fish lovers, the smoked trout tacos are better than the shrimp ones. Margaritas are on the rocks, not frozen, and they have many tequila and flavor choices. Wait staff was really friendly and helpful. We would definitely eat here again!

I have visited this restaurant several times with a group of friends and have always had good food at very reasonable prices. Serving sizes tend to be generous. If you are on a budget check out their daily specials which are an excellent value! Service has always been friendly.

Roja Mexican Grill serves it up Tex-Mex style. Fajitas, tacos, enchiladas, tostadas, chimichangas and more. All with sizzling smack and an extra helping of Tex flavor. Wash it all down with a Pomegranate Margarita or a tall boy Tecate. Our drink menu boas

This is a bright and cheery restaurant, located on the fringe of the Old Market. They offer a wide range of Southwestern and Tex-Mex cuisine. You start with complimentary chips and salsa. Everything we had was very tasty. I liked the veggie options, while my nephew opted for quesadillas. The portions are large and prices fair. Service is friendly and efficient. Recommended.
