    I LOVE IT!!!! I've been to every Mexican place in CB, and this one takes the cake! I love how cheap it is, and the salsa and chips are to die for. The service is so fast, and the servers are so friendly! This will forever have a hand on my heart, I come here frequently with my friends, and they love it aswell, I've recommended this place to multiple friends, and they crave it! Thank you La Carreta Rosa!

    Good, honest Mexican food in a small, local restaurant. Reasonably priced and friendly service. Loved their horchata, salsa and carnitas!

    The food was much better than I expected when walking in. It is a small place and probably mostly does takeout. There seemed to be one person working as a waiter who was quite but very nice.

    Incredibly good food and wonderful service. Authentic Mexican street food. Both my wife and I have been slowly exploring the entire menu. Everything has been exceptional. The made to order guacamole is just the very best. The bistec Mexicana and Ranchero are both great introductory menu items. The service, no matter how busy has always been fast, friendly and on point. Just a great little place with great food, great prices and great service.

    Looking to try different Mexican restaurants and saw this little place across the river in Council Bluffs. Restaurant is in one of the old store fronts. Very limited seating. One Waitress covering everyone and only one to two in the kitchen. This appears to be solely a family operated business. Waitress was very friendly and invited us to sit down at an unclean table and someone from the kitchen came out and cleaned things off and passed us menus. There is a daily special, but the menu is also has a decent selection. Complimentary chips and salsa are brought to the table. The salsa is outstanding. My wife and I could drink this stuff. Spicy with a bit of a kick with a hint of sweetness, This is some of the best we have tasted anywhere around. We ordered cheese enchiladas and street tacos. Enchiladas came out smoking hot and were tasty with a good red sauce on top on them. Tried the beef, pork and shrimp street tacos. All were good sized with plenty of filling and were tasty, but the absolute best was the shrimp. I would go here just to eat the shrimp tacos - very good. Prices were very reasonable and we enjoyed our meal. A place we want to eat at again.

    I rarely write reviews, but this place is AMAZING!!! The tacos are very good and their valid "7 Mares" is amazing!!!!! Good for a hangover! MUST TRY if you're in the area!!!!!

Definitely a must-order. I also had a margarita and the chicken enchilada, which were both really good. The enchiladas are flavorful, comforting, and hit the spot. Service was friendly and the atmosphere is casual and welcoming. Overall a great place to grab a margarita, some queso, and a satisfying meal. I'll definitely be back!

    Primos has a council Bluffs and Omaha location. The Council Bluffs location is a little bit smaller…read morebut still offers the same wonderful food choices. There is a dedicated parking in Council Bluffs however, it's a bit small. You may have to choose street parking for restaurant access. Both locations are open all day which offers a nice selection for mid afternoon dining. Daily specials and happy hours are available throughout the week. Check their website for details We were pleasantly greeted and quickly seated and jumped right into their selection of dips while we try to make a decision on our main meal. What I really like about their menu is they do allow for a pick two or pick three options that includes your own choice of sides. Their street corn side is one of my favorites. The Council Bluffs location offers more of a sports bar atmosphere while their Omaha location has outdoor seating if you're looking for a place to sit in the middle of the summer (LOL). Really great food, great service, and great atmosphere. What more could you ask for?

For an appetizer we had the mini spicy elote empanadas. Sad part they were not hot and you can tell they came frozen. The sauce that came with was good. For dinner my husband had the Big Juan and I had the beef chimichanga. My husband was sad that we never given chips. Also he had no sides with his dinner. I had a side of rice and beans. The rice was either undercooked or very dry, it was hard. The chimichanga had a good taste but didn't taste fried. My husband's Big Juan was missing sour cream. He said it was alright but not good enough to have again. Tried on a whim, don't plan on returning. The restaurant was very loud we couldn't talk to one another across the table. But disappointed.

Plenty of parking out front of the restaurant complimentary, plenty of seating when we first walked in around 5pm and by the time we left at 6pm every table was full along with the bar and the entire time they had multiple take out orders! My husband loved his margarita and ordered a 2nd. We loved our chip trio, guacamole, salsa, and queso, and you had a choice of flour, corn or mix chips, we chose flour. Chips are also unlimited!! Prices were right on point, $5 margarita $13 for the chip trio, so cheap these days! The single beef tacos $4 were HUGE took over the entire basket, definitely not a street taco size lol. We will definitely be back soon!
