10 Best Mexican Restaurants in Ojai

“Just a heads up to everyone.. they're closed until Jan 17 2022 :(“

“The ambiance is great and the drinks and food are delicious but severely overpriced. They started off doing $5 tacos which is pricey but fine for the quality of the food but quickly hiked up their prices. Considering the quality which im well aware of as I’ve made many of these dishes myself (I’m Mexican) I’m still willing to pay their prices.
That being said, the pricing for some of the simpler items on menu like quesadillas are absurd in my opinion. Small tortillas with cheese and watercress for $7.50 each is just insulting to my heritage. $6.50 for mole, sure, that’s a complicated dish. $7.50 for cheese in a tortilla, no. Please be more judicious in your pricing and menu building.“

“Classic Ojai summer evenings with exceptional music!“

“Everething menudo and tortas de asada ala diabla the best“

“I came here she micheladas and appetizers with a friend. First time I got chips and salsa and was disappointed. They didn’t have guacamole and their salsa was a miss for me. The spicy sauce was really spicy though so I liked that but no flavor. Their French fries though are incredible. They taste like McDonald’s fries and they give you double the amount for only $4. I’ve never had a Michelada before but I feel like it could have been better. And the mix was just ok. Will still go back for one and definitely for the fries. The decor is not it. Cobwebs on the walls everything looks outdated. The booths are dark and dingy. Not a good place for a date night. Stick to the drinks and fries and you’ll be fine.“

“First off, one of the only places in Ojai that had INDOOR seating with AC. Every restaurant we went to all had patio seating. It was 107 degrees. Who on God's green earth wants to melt outdoors while eating!?!?

I ordered 2 tacos plus some sort of open face burrito. The tacos were very good with lots of meat...gear those for sure. The beef and chicken were both tasty. The open faced burrito, I forget the name of the dish. I didn't like it at all.

The decor is pretty awful and dated. Could use an update. Take most of the tchotchkes off the walls, fresh pain on the walls, update the tables and chairs, and this could be a much nicer Mexican restaurant.

You have something most places don't have indoor real estate for people to eat inside to get away from the heat. Also very easy to make a simple Margherita you can offer customers and boost sales.“

“Amazing 😉 best food in town hands down“

“Delicious food, friendly staff and affordable prices. 😋“

“I flew in from Boston and my mom is from up the coast in Santa Margarita. This was a perfect start to our Ojai experience. Delicious meal. So many options and we each enjoyed or respective meals: Mango Snapper and Quinoa Greens, and Grilled veggie Quesadilla. Delish! All on the cozy, charming patio strung with festive lights.“

“Just to let you know incase the employees for this location have not reported it. The parking lot lamp turns on and off continuously at night. It’s the one next to the trash area. I expect this fixed by next month so i can enjoy my tacos without the lamp making me have seizures. Just kidding I don’t have seizures but I’m just letting you know as a customer looking out for your business some maintenance is needed. It’s 6/8/26 now, next time i come visit i would like to see the post lamp fixed I will know you are the best and i will happily pay for your delicious food. Thanks for reading and happy Taco Bell:)“
