Everything we had was amazing... Carnitas, chicken quesadilla, carne asada burrito... The rice is flavorful and fluffy, the freshly made tortilla chips are worth eating in for, and this is our new stop on our way to Vegas from LA.
This is my favorite restaurant. Period.
They have a family twist on the way they make traditional dishes. Sometimes not what you would expect, but I guarantee you will love it.
I ordered the beef enchiladas with ground beef. It was kinda of soggy but it had a homemade flavor. I had mine without the cheese. It comes with Mexican cheese I don't care for it.
Excellent food. Small place in a strip mall, so it's easy to miss. It is very busy, so seating may be limited, but we still got a table quickly. Prices are good and service was very good. Bring cash just in case, as when we went they were not processing credit/debit cards. Well worth the stop, though.
Food good and great service! Cute little dine in area
This restaurant has excellent food, the staff is super friendly and it's a real Mexican restaurant. I ordered the Carnitas Platter and it was perfect.
AWESOME!
Oh yeah it's hot and spicy, but just incredible authentic flavor. There are many places that just want to burn your taste buds, this place wants to tickle them, and lather those puppies with capsaicin.
Multiple levels, pretty much all with flavor if you know your peppers.
Stopped on our way from Las Vegas to San Jose. The food was amazing the staff was helpful even my picky kids loved it
What a little gem this place is!! Don't judge this place by its cover...great atmosphere and flavorful food! Thank you, Lola's :D
Lola's Kitchen has by far the best Mexican food I have ever had. I enjoyed it numerous times while living in the desert. Lola cooks herself and puts a lot of pride in her place. She is well established and has been around for a long time (my first visit was in 2001). Lola is one of the sweetest, nicest people you will ever meet in your life. Her Steak ala Mexicana is delicious. Just for that alone the drive to Barstow every once in a while is a must :)
Great service. Good food Exceptional clean bathrooms. Quick greeting. Easy to find. Zero suggestions for improvement
Located in a worn down looking plaza in an almost non visable corner. Outside the restaurant was bleak but once inside it lit up with color and traditional Mexican decor and seating. The place is extremely small and I do not recommend bringing in personal belongings as the tables are so close together. You order at counter even for dine in while you wait they bring you out chips and salsa which were ok. Menu selection is reasonable and prices seem standard. We had the Gloria special "Atkins friendly" Carne Asada was delicous. Chicken (green sauce was spicy) but it seemed to lack a bit of flavor.
I went on a 12 days road trip from Santa Fe, New Mexico to Arcata, California. i visited many cities and stopped at countless restaurants. i must say that i was very fortunate to have come in to Lola's Kitchen. This is the only place that stood out, great food and super customer service. a five start review does not do justice to this awesome place.
I Always Love Returning To Your Restaurant Everytime I'm In The Area Of Barstow
Great chips and salsa. Amazing delicious food at a great price. Best Mexican in Barstow!
Very small, can fit maybe 20 people. How ever, the food is great! It's authentic mexican food just like yo mama makes. Definitely coming back!
Best burrito ever! I love this place. Homestyle food like grandma makes :)
I really really enjoyed the food. This place is great but it gets busy! This is a restaurant that should be expanded ASAP! Very limited seating inside but excellent customer services! Best spot in Barstow!
Growing up in Phoenix and Las Vegas, but living in Utah now, I crave real Mexican Food every time I come to SoCal. We weren't sure where to stop, so decided to choose based on Google reviews. Lola's did not disappoint! It was a-maz-ing! I loved the Steak a la Mexicana. Spicy and oh, so delicious. When I let my husband try it, he exclaimed, "Wow!". Though overwhelmed by the deliciousness of my meal, he thoroughly enjoyed his Carne Asada burrito. We can't wait to eat here when we come back through.
I love that they open up super early and their food is simply amazing with great prices
Food was nice and hot and workers very polite. It's worth the stop and eating! 5 stars for sure
Realy small place but the food is exelent and well priced
Stopped for lunch at Lola's because of the great reviews. We were not diisappointed. Service is great. Food is fresh and yummy. Thank you Albert! Will return.
Amazing Mexican food I have never had a bad meal there in the last twenty plus years
Great food. Mostly burritos. Great service. Friendly made sure we had everything we needed.
Food is the best. Best chorizo eggs and potatoes burrito I have ever had. Thanks to the two young ladies that do all the cooking. Like eating at Momos.
Very nice place and great service, my burrito was delicious.
Well worth the drive! The BEST Mexican food!! DON'T MISS IT!!!
I been going here since i was little best place to go love there food and very friendly workers lolas kitchen is the best place to eat in barstoe
Delicious! Super clean, friendly, good menu. This small restaurant dishes out great food! Worth seeking out.
The service here was friendly and pretty fast. Food here tasted very fresh and not greasy at all. The portion size is pretty generous too. I ordered the carne asada burrito with cheese and it really hit the spot. This place is definitely worth stopping by if you re in the mood for Mexican food.
Traveling from Sequoia National Forrest to Vegas we found this place not too far off of Route 15, and it was so worth it! --Fresh, homemade, super tasty food, great atmosphere, and friendly staff. Definitely a must if you're looking for some delish wholesome food in your travels!
Don't go near closing time because they want to get out quickly so they shut down the grill.
I love this place always good service and food is always delicious
Some of the best Mexican food I've ever had. My husband and I always try to make a stop here whenever we go to Barstow.
Love this place always fresh food and friendly service
Simply delicious. Smallish place, great food, quick service.
This place is a must stop in traveling through barstow. We read about it on yelp and both my wife and I are mexican food fanatics. We have eaten all over southern California and this restaurant is at the top of the list. We had to wait on a table to open up, but it was well worth the wait! Magnifico!!!!
If You Want Some Real Mexican Food. Lola's Is The Place To Eat In Barstow. The Food Is Great. You May Eat In Or Carry Out... A Must Visit I You Are In Barstow, California...
Good attention and very good food! Especially cleaning!
Sopes. Sopes. U eat sopes and live forever. Happily. Also sopes. Nothing else as good. They have a crumbly feta-looking cheese on them. Not enough. "Give me two sopes, one of the chorizo/potato and one of the pure gold plain bean heavenly wonderment. Bith with extra cheese. Extra extra." Thats a very light lunch. Fastest item on menu cause all the work been done making that little soft toughish corn base thing.
Could say two of each if want. Or two of the potsto-chorizo and one bean. Vegan get potato no chorizo not on menu, and bean. . Youre allowed to pick them up but grab a knife they wont give you one. Just for the first bite ir two then pick up to eat. Not crunchy but thick. Corn. Pour a little sauce on about half the bites you take. Scoop droppings back onto sope w fork. Tacos good. Im about to try an enchilada cause im jackass sometimes. It wont be as good. Its ok I ordered
A small place, great for a wonderful Mexican breakfast. The huevos con chorizo is so wonderfully flavorful.
Don't forget to ask not Spicy for your Children menu!!
Homemade taste. Reasonably priced.
Shredded beef burrito
Great authentic Mexican food! Loved the chili relleno and cheese enchiladas.
Excellent local restaurant - very clean, with authentic cuisine, fresh homemade food and friendly staff. Cheap.
Great local restaurant - very clean with authentic cuisine, fresh home-cooked food and friendly staff. Cheap
Great food, fantastic flavors, and super nice staff. Authentic!
I seen a lot of people going in this restaurant when I was hungry so said why not try it out since it was about lunchtime.
I ordered 2 plates, food was made quickly but not too quick that you would think it wasn t done. It was just enough time to be cooked perfectly and taste amazing. I will be back soon.
The BEST food, service, staff and prices out of all the known restaurants! They have a cozy and clean atmosphere, everyone working there are friendly and helpful. Even on the busiest of days they still have the greatest service. You'll never be disappointed when choosing this exceptional & exquisite eatery!
This was the first restaurant my family and I visited when we were out here in Barstow and we absolutely LOVED the food. The customer service was warm and inviting. The decor of the restaurant is beautiful and vibrant. Definitely a place to stop at when out I'm Barstow.
Best place in barstow. And very friendly staff. Love it
Last stop on the way home from Texas. Outstanding food, good prices, excellent service. Highly recommend!
This is the best food. We have never been disappointed, and when we go thru Barstow, its a must! Best chile rellenos ever
Amazing food. I have eaten here many times and never been disappointed in the slightest.
On our way back from the Grand Canyon on our way home to San Diego and found this place via Google from I40. Had the chile relleno - pretty good,or about as good as you will find for authentic Mexican. Someone else in our party had a carnita tostada. All was very good - the guacamole was the only thing that could have been better.
This place use to be good but now the price is too much. Almost $10 for a burrito and then they charge another dollar to use your card. Not worth it anymore.
This is my new favorite stop on my way to Vegas. They open at 4am and is only a half mile off the highway. I had the Jose's Machaca.. oh my gosh, the best breakfast flavors! I highly recommend this hidden gem.
Be warned, they close at 4:30pm and not open on Sundays.
Cucumber and strawberry water is delicious, especially in 110 degree high desert weather!!!!
Excellent menu...
Amazing, delicious, fresh, authentic mexi food! Friendly staff. Highly recommend, not far from interstate. Tacos were delicious & worked well for gluten-free. Cleanest restaurant & bathrooms ever! Located in tiny strip mall next to Vons.
I order ahead by phone, pick up and eat at home. Delicious food and very decent, hard working staff.
