Large portions of food for a really good price I had the number 45 which is a wet burrito and had a choice of asada or carnitas. Absolutely loved the food and almost couldn't finish it all, considering I grew up in the South Bay with lots of Mexican food growing up both homemade and fast food(LBJs) this was definitely worth the stop on our way home from vegas read more

Started out weird. The massive amounts of animal carcasses is a bit overwhelming. Felt like a taxidermist was in back. Then the electricity went out, came back in after about 10 mins. Not their fault though. But I'll be damned if it wasn't some good grub! I had the $11 all you can eat. Steak taco, Steak Sopes, chili relleno was fire!! My husband loves the decor so to each his own. Well worth the stop. read more

We stopped here on out way home from Laughlin. The food was pretty good and the prices are very reasonable. The taxidermy showcase is pretty cool. Love the theme! read more

So don't be turned off by the decor. Dead animals staring at you while you chow down. The selection choice of food is extensive. Really good food! Carne asada was insane. The burrito was huge! I only could eat half. Not overly priced. Will definitely make a ship here again on my way to Cali! read more

The food was great- I had the sopes and my bf had the tostadas. The service was good too. I would have gladly given more stars, but the restaurant was dirty, the windows filthy and the restrooms pretty gross. If you can get past that and the stuffed animals, you will have a great experience. read more

Chips and salsa was not good should have stopped there,your Mexican food have pride in your salsa! I ordered crispy chicken taco and Chile relleno combo it was decent,tasty rice! My bf ordered crab enchiladas which were not edible as the fishy taste was overwhelming & off putting! Waitress/owner told me at check out "it's suppose to be fishy it's crab" WTF REALLY!! We fish as a hobby and as real seafood lovers that is the far from true,actually comical.No apologies nor responsibility taken,didn't want anything in return as a business owner she should know. Place was dirty but figured it was from busy day and ready to close but bathrooms were disgusting too!! OMG as an old rule of mine I should stick to if bathrooms are dirty and they can't make good salsa DON'T eat at the establishment! Lesson learned! I will not be returning here!! read more

Great stop on the way back from Laughlin. We were promptly greeted with a smile and seated quickly. I'll make this short and sweet. Chips weren't warm, but they had good crunch and flavor. Red salsa was delish. Guac was so-so. A little lemon-y for my tastes. I had chicken fajitas - they were great. Chicken was tender and flavorful, onions and red, green, and yellow peppers were grilled to perfection. Warm corn tortillas are made fresh to order - great as well. Cheese enchilada was good, not great. Rice & beans up to par. Carlos served us with a smile and friendly attitude. Would recommend for a quick stop when passing through. :) PS: If you're an animal lover/PETA freak, steer clear. Lots of dead, stuffed animals all over the place. Didn't bother us, just figured I'd throw that in there. ;) read more

I wish I could give this place zero stars!!! Worst Mexican food EVER! Ordered the carne asada burrito wet, came with only meat and beans. Ordered a side of guacamole, it's was the weirdest tasting green stuff I've ever tasted. Only thing that was semi good was the salsa! Don't waste your money please!! read more

My 10yo grandson wanted grilled shrimp (not on menu) for lunch. It was outstanding served on bed of lettuce with lime wedges! My husband and I had standard Mexican fare of carne asada taco and chicken tostada. For lunch at extremely reasonable prices it was fine. Judging by the shrimp dish, I expect that dinners are better. Not everyone's taste but was very enjoyable with unique decor that was in keeping with a Grand Canyon road trip, our first long trip with our grandson. Perfect! read more

Really really good! Stopped on the way to vegas and I'm glad I did! Mexican approved food lol

Never eaten such delicious food under a gazelle. The melted cheese on my Asada burrito was so delicious the zebra wanted a bite.

Don't do it!!! I found the end piece of a cooks rubber glove in my soup! The owner asked me if I wanted something else so I agreed thinking it would be comped, nope they didn't comp it. When I asked for a discount at least since I had to wait for my food while our party of 8 ate, the owner said "we don't do that here". Rude and inconsiderate. They ended up giving us $3 dollars off after I insisted they gave us at least some kind of discount but you could tell the owner was not happy about it. Sad part is that it was a tradition for my entire family that consists of 100+ people to stop by after driving home from Vegas to Riverside even though the food wasn't the greatest but it won't be happening anymore. I lack of consideration will haunt a business in the long run. read more

My favorite place to stop either leaving or coming back to Vegas. The menudo is great , caldo de pollo and juevos rancheros are also favorites. Service is always good even when busy. Fresh salsa and chips complimentary. read more

My family and I stopped by for dinner on our way to Vegas. Everything we ordered was awesome. Can't say any more than that. Will definitely come again. read more

Best Mexican food I have ever had. I am very particular on Mexican food having grown up in San Francisco with some real winners. This little gem...you wouldn't expect it in Barstow across the steet from a gas station, but wow, everything was so fresh. The salsa and chips were delicious and the service was attentive to drink refills. I ordered the all you can eat for $9.95 and got enchiladas and a burrito. Amazing!! Homecookin, not heavy at all...just great portions. This will be a stop on every trip Vegas to Socal. Affordable and good eatin, can't beat that. read more

Food a little above average so that was good! The decor might be off-putting for some but if you are looking for decent Mexican you will look past it. The portions are large and prices decent but their salsa sucks! And the male waiter honestly treated us like we were inconveniencing him (and I'm not sensitive to stuff like that). Regardless, this is a great place to stop when traveling to or from Vegas. read more

I ate at this restaurant once, and I will never go back. I was so appalled at presentation, taste, and the fact that the waitress obviously knew I was unsatisfied and so she ignored my table until we had to chase her down for the bill. She never once asked how the food was. I left my plate untouched, and bitterly paid my bill. Gross. read more

Stopped here on our way to Laughlin. Took 30 minutes to take our order. Salsa was not good. The red salsa tasted like V8 & the green salsa was nasty. I ordered a salad it was nasty, the whole bottom of my place had water. I also ordered the steak fajitas the veggies were good but the steak was full of fat. It was like Fat fajitas No steak. I won't be stopping here again. read more

we came here on our way to vegas, and what we got was some good ol' yummy home-style mexican food. the menu had pretty much everything but the kitchen sink and everything was pretty cheap. lunch specials were under $5, well, at least my cheese enchiladas were. it was the perfect portion for lunch: one cheesy yummy enchilada with a side of beans and rice. the salsa and chips they give you at the beginning is mad crazy good, and might own chevy's. i really do like chevy's salsa and chips. but there's something about casa j's that might have chevy's beat. good service. one of the bathroom doors in the ladies room doesn't lock (ha!). and they have a lot of taxidermied animals for decor......not really feeling that, but the food makes up for it. read more

Good Service, quick, right off the 15. Odd decor (lots of taxidermy), nice full menu. Ate fish tacos, loved the spanish rice and beans, minus the "usual overload" mexican blend cheese ontop. My boyfriend ate Shrimp and avocado salad, really nice and fresh. The dressing was not made in house, so nothing to write about. read more

Perfect location after a long drive, just off the freeway, lots of food for the price, tasty too...

Stopped here on my way back from Vegas and I wanted to see if it was the same chain as the one in Pico Rivera and Lynwood and it was. We had the cocido and hard shell tacos. The tacos were decent but the cocido was very delicious. I definitely will stop here again on the way to and from Vegas. The prices were very affordable as well!! read more

My husband and I stop here every chance we get driving from the SF Bayarea to Las Vegas. The chips and salsa are so fresh and the menu has a wide variety of food, anything you can imagine. This time we stopped on a Sunday and there was a woman making fresh tortillas in the middle of the restaurant. Well, we just had to order some with our order and they were the best we've every eaten! I order a chicken taco and my husband order the chile relleno. Both were so fresh and the beans and rice are amazing and so delicious! This is must for anyone driving through.............we thoroughly enjoyed it! read more

S A V E-YOUR-M O N E Y !!! Salsa, chips, beans rice, everything tasted gross, dry and stale I told the waitress that the beans were burnt and got upset came back and said she tasted them and they were not burnt and tried to argue with me about some beans she was lucky that I didn't complain about the whole plate because man everything tasted like sh*t. read more

I'm giving this place 4 stars just for all the dead, stuffed animals everywhere. Definitely broke up our 10 hour road trip. Food was decent too. read more

This place is to dead for omg it's hard to meet the standard of my wife who is full blooded Mexican cause of the her mother's cooking she said this place was better then her mom's cooking and that's hard to bet best Mexican food ever read more

Great place!!! Food was excellent from the carne asada burritos to the pancakes my daughter ordered. Friendly staff, love the unique decor. We will be back for sure. read more

Great authentic Mexican food. I had the steak fajita quesadilla plate and it was cooked to perfection, it was not under or over cooked. The cut of meat was excellently chosen. The flavors were full and seasoned to perfection. The steak practically melted in my mouth as it should. The quesadilla tortilla was made in house, the cheese was exquisitely gooey just the way I like it. The rice and beans were also cooked and flavored perfectly. The flour tortilla for the fajitas was also made in house and was heated to perfection with just the right amount of browning to it. The chips and salsa alone were good. The smoky salsa is my favorite, but the regular red salsa was good too. I love the taxidermy, I asked the server about it and he said his brother has hunted them all, I'm glad to hear that they were hunted consciously and he even has African game which means he travels the world for this passion. I cannot recommend the food enough. read more

Decent place, food was ok..friendly service and decent prices...really cool animal decor..

Very nice staff, everytime we come through Barstow. Food is good and very reasonably priced

The food is mediocre at best. The service is horrible. The atmosphere stinks. How is this place still open. Don't waste your money here.

Akward location, strange decor, AMAZING FOOD! The food was cheap and delicious, service was courteous. Can't really ask for more. I highly recommend the burritos, chicken and carne asada were both equally delicious. They gave us the lunch special even though it was over! read more

Chips were good. Green salsa was good. If you're hungry it will do. If you're looking for more.... I liked Los Domingos Restaurant which inside a hotel. read more

I love this place. Around December when there's a decent snow storm up north, on my way to go skiing, I would stop by this place and get a great meal. They have been consistent throughout the years. The green salsa they serve with their chips is crazy good and really spicy, like the way I like it. I also like the fact they give out calendars with hot chicks on it every year. read more

Attentive, fast service, clean, exotic animal decor, amazing 2 types salsa, good background music, friendly, great food

Great authentic mexican food. Lots of variety and very inexpensive. There was 6 of us and we ate for 40 bucks!

First time dining there last night...for all u Mexicans out there who grew up with moms homemade pot of beans...well u also may have experienced the flavor of burnt beans...ya know when ur mom forgets to check if theres still water in the pot...that's what the beans were like last night...had a burnt flavor to it...rice was good...the beef tacos I had were alright...nothing to brag about...could've used more seasoning...chips and salsa were excellent...they offered green and red...service was also excellent...prices are cheap read more

Service can make or break a place and the 2 servers working here on 4/2/16 were very rude!! When someone asks questions on the menu the server should be able to respond politely not annoyed. Jimenez and a lady with blonde hair should look for another profession ... read more

Just got back from eating here. The food was fresh and the service is truly outstanding. I've lived here in Barstow for 4 years now and have always loved coming here. I love the decor! The prices are all pretty good as well. Get the number 25 if you want to get a full taste of this beautiful restaurant. read more

Good food, slow service. Chips are average. Salsas are good. The cheese enchilada was good. The beef shish kabob had a lot of gristle. Was expensive for the poor quality of meet. Would eat here again. Found the place because cheap gas is across the street. Very convenient on and off the 15. read more
