Wow! This place is such a brilliant restaurant on ROUTE 66. Barstow is a rough and run down place. From the moment that you walk in you are greeted with a smile and a warm hello. They sat me immediately and within a few minutes I had a cold drink, chips and salsa and chilaquiles with red sauce and 3 over medium eggs with rice and beans. My waitress was spectacular and the owner and others greeted me and checked on me throughout my meal. All for $17.32! I am from Utah but I promise to stop by every time I come through!

We were traveling through Barstow today and we thought we would pick a Mexican restaurant to eat at.We looked up reviews,etc.,and we decided on Jennys Grill Steak & Mariscos.We were definately glad that we did. We ordered the three shredded beef enchiladas with Red Sauce,rice and beans.The red sauce over the enchiladas had melted cheese as well.I also asked for a couple jalapenos that were freshly charred on the grill.The shredded beef enchiladas tasted good and were flavorful.The spanish rice was good with the beans.I think the beans were pretty good with the right amount of lard,which I like.I mixed the rice and beans together and I put the chopped up charred jalapenos in it also which tasted wonderful. We also got the Carne Asada Nachos which were good and had lots of Asada meat on them.The cheese on top went well with the meat and chips,and had the right amount of crunch.I was also glad that they served chips and salsa with red and green salsa and pico.The red and green salsa had some proper KICK to them when eaten with the chips.I thought to myself that this must be the heat level that they like around there in their salsa which is cool. I love when we go to a Mexican restaurant and you get that heat. The charred jalapenos were delicious,and quite hot and complimented both the enchiladas and the rice and beans.The friendly waitresses were quite courteous and supplied us with whatever we needed.From the time we ordered the food to the time when the food came out to our table was surprisingly fast also.I say Great Job Jennys Grill Steak & Mariscos.Your food tastes Great,and you can tell that the people that work there care about producing Great Food.

Was feeling sick and decided to go for albondigas. It absolutely made me feel better and made my day better! Staff was quick and nice for my pick up order and I felt really taken cared of. Thank you!

Within an easy walk from the Rodeway Inn where I stayed and came highly recommended.Very unassuming from the outside, I wasn’t even sure if it was open but I tried the door and was warmly greeted.All the usual Mexican food on the menu and I ordered the vegetarian nachos and a corona.Food arrived quickly and the staff were super nice.In and out in 40 minutes on a Sunday night. Perfect!

We like coming to Jennys. Its family friendly, the service is always good and the food is great. Jenny and her staff have always been very accommodating when we have a big group. It shows that she appreciates is as customers.

We stopped here for Lunch on the way to LA from Vegas. Great little spot & wonderful people working there.The food we ordered was a bit on the saltier side, but the portions & taste were spot on.They give you a side of salsa & chips once you order.

This place has great/authentic and fresh Mexican food. Not the most gorgeous in the world (and the bathrooms could use a remodel) but the food is outstanding and fairly priced. Have stopped here many times from Las Vegas and I, and anyone I have taken here have never been disappointed with the food taste, prep or price. Great.

Absolutely the best food Ive had in years. I just wish there was one in Colorado. Im thinking about planning a return trip to California just to eat here one more time. No bs.

If it were possible to give more than 5 stars I would do so! Jennys Grill Steak & Mariscos looks like its been on Route 66 for a long time, however, the food is great, the service better and after a long day on the road it was a great place to eat! Two things REALLY stand out: 1) We got there, sat down and ordered. By the time we were through eating, about half a dozen law enforcement people were also sitting and eating. You KNOW that when the local law enforcement people show up, the food is good and the value is unbeatable! 2) When we went, we went in, saw some signs saying Please leave your animals outside unless they are a service animal - comfort animals dont count. After a few minutes, a man came in, read the signs and continued in with his obvious pet (not service animal). One patron who was leaving even mentioned No perros. No dogs. and the person ignored him. A few minutes later one of the employees asked the person if he had seen the signs. The person protested and said he couldnt leave his dog in the car because it was too not. It was about 70 degrees. The employee kindly, but firmly asked to see paperwork indicating the dog was a service animal. The person refused to produce any such paperwork and was asked to leave his dog outside. The person refused and left. I SINCERELY APPRECIATE YOU BOTH LETTING PEOPLE KNOW THAT ANIMALS SHOULDNT BE IN RESTAURANTS AND THEN HOLDING FIRM WHEN SOMEONE TRIES TO IGNORE YOU!!! It was MUCH nicer for us to continue our meal without an unnecessary animal in the store. I will be back again and again each time Im in Barstow - Thank you!!!
