Barstow Daily Brief: New Eats, Weekend Weather, and Local Updates

Good afternoon, Barstow. Here’s a quick look at what’s happening around town for Saturday, February 7, 2026.

New Hawaiian BBQ spot opens by the outlets

A new Ono Hawaiian BBQ location has just opened near the outlets off Lenwood Road, right by Interstate 15. The restaurant celebrated its grand opening on Friday with a luau-style event, giveaways, and a buy-one-get-one-free plate lunch promotion. With its position along the Vegas corridor, the new spot is aiming to serve both highway travelers and local families looking for a casual place to grab chicken katsu, BBQ plates, and other island-style comfort food.

Weekend events and Super Bowl plans

Barstow’s weekend calendar is busy. Friday brought a “Fork & Film” night at Barstow High School and a Sip N Paint gathering at a local nutrition shop, adding some low-key fun to the end of the school week. Looking ahead, several community spaces are planning Super Bowl watch parties on Sunday afternoon, giving residents a chance to gather locally instead of driving out of town. If you plan to go, expect crowds and consider arriving early; many events note limited seating.

Weather: Mild, sunny, and great for getting outside

The weather is cooperating for anyone out and about this weekend. Forecasts for Barstow call for sunny skies today with highs around the low 70s and overnight lows in the mid‑40s. Sunday should be a touch warmer, with highs in the low to mid‑70s before a slight cool-down early next week. Winds are expected to stay light, and no rain is in the short-term forecast, which should make for smooth driving conditions on local highways.

Public safety: Suspect still sought in January homicide

Barstow police are still searching for 36‑year‑old Alyse Brown, wanted on suspicion of murder in connection with the January 16 shooting death of 27‑year‑old Jessie Moore on North First Avenue. Investigators say Brown is considered armed and dangerous and remains at large after a warrant was issued late last month. Anyone with information is urged to contact Barstow police or use anonymous tip lines so detectives can continue to move the case forward.
