“The Ojai Valley Deli Cafe is an amazing place to eat and even more incredible as a caterer. We eat there frequently, take out just as often, and recently hired them to cater a house concert and our 70+ guest raved about the food. They are SO professional in every way! They really care and it shows in their execution and in the quality of every dish they serve. I could not recommend them more highly!“
“What a lovely restaurant, I was a bit skeptical since it's a small town but loved that there are a ton of options for everyone. My friends and I were in town for a getaway and wanted a cute dinner and it was definitely accomplished here. The staff was so nice as well. We ordered a few things, I can't remember all of the names but the ravioli, chicken lasagna and the baked penne pasta was sooo delicious our plates were licked clean. We did order a pepperoni pizza but being from LA I've had better, but it was good. And for dessert, we got the tiramisu, crème brûlée and peach sorbet. The peach sorbet is very potent but if you like the flavor you will enjoy. Will definitely be back to visit!“
“It's like a good place for 1st date the eating areas ate inside or patio and even one table for 2 out by side walk , it doesn't have waiters no free refill on soft drinks or no complimentary bread rolls, I had spaghetti and meat balls it was ok kinda like from the can, my son had chicken Alfredo he enjoyed it he sed the chicken portion in his plate was generous and good.. it's diffrent mostly good atmosphere and alot of beautiful trees and old places to see in the Ojai valley“
“We had dinner last night at this charming restaurant in downtown Ojai. Our meals were excellent. I had the halibut that was perfectly cooked and it was accompanied by roasted potatoes and a vegetable medley of broccoli and kale. Delicious and beautifully presented. My friend had the Ciopinno and she thoroughly enjoyed it. It came out piping hot and was loaded with seafood. The toasted bread served was wonderful to sop up the broth - which she loved. I would highly suggest this restaurant and we will definitely return when we are back in Ojai. Oh and the service was excellent as well.“
“One of the best meals I've had! Service was impeccable and the restaurant itself is so cute! The complimentary bread with the amazing olive oil was the perfect starter. We also got the lamb carpaccio and yellowfin tartar as appetizers and oh my god!!! Both were so flavorful and absolutely delicious! Our main entrees were the lamb ragu with tagliatelle and their special of the day pasta which was wild boar ragu with parpadelle and again both left us so happy and satisfied with their rich and delicious flavors. The hand made pasta was so yummy and cooked to perfection! We were being real greedy and decided to get dessert so we got the chocoholic which was out of this world decadent and chocolatey! It was the perfect end to a fantastic dinner. I can't wait to come back to Ojai just so I can come here again.“
“It's hard to believe that I haven't reviewed this place yet especially since I make trips to Ojai just to dine here! I love their vegetarian lasagna, but let's be real, I make the trek out here for their famous Strawberry shortcake! During most of the year you can grab a table outside and enjoy the scenic views. A must visit when in Ojai.“
“Loved everything except the Trout. It didn't agree with me for some reason. But our server was excellent- truly, she was excellent. The service from each server was perfect. The ambiance was wonderful. It did get a little loud at times, but I don't mind that. The only thing not perfect was the trout, and that could just be a me problem. Overall just wonderful!! Highly recommend.“
