Best breads and pizza for many miles. But what we really love is the friendly, kind manner of everyone there. Loyal for life.

I can’t deny it… one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever had. The staff was awesome… friendly, knowledgeable, and courteous. The location used to be another sandwich shop and it shows, but they’ve done a great job making it their own space. I was there with 5 other people, so we ordered a little of everything and tried all their salads and sandwiches. Absolutely delicious. If I could give Pinyon more than 5 stars I would. They know what they’re doing!

My wife and I stopped for dinner this evening (Sunday) at about 6:30. There were about 6 customers in the restaurant. We were asked if we had a reservation, and when we said no, we were told that they did not have any pizza dough. At a pizza restaurant. Hostess was actually pretty unfriendly. Went to Ojai Pizza instead, and had a great dinner.

Great little place in Ojai downtown. Loved the sourdough hearth bread and the porco rosso pizza. The black sesame seed buidino was amazing as well. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Not a real ding, but check beforehand on some things, they seem to run out of stuff.

This may have been our highlight of Ojai! My sister and I were looking for a lunch spot that wasn’t too expensive or fancy and ran across this great little place. Not only is the place full of personality and charm, with friendly workers, the food is Amazing!! We got a pizza to split and loved all of the interesting options, and loved ours with the pine nuts on top. The tiramisu was also incredible and very unique, and we picked up a fresh loaf of bread to go, looked too good to miss (and one guy walking out even recommended it as we were considering). (Also loved the themed bathroom, just so much thought and care put into this place). If you’re in Ojai, absolutely would recommend

Simply amazing. Had one of the best, most memorable meals recently at Pinyon and we are looking forward to getting back. They offer such fresh and unique options and have the most welcoming and fun atmosphere. The service is awesome too! We are grateful Pinyon is part of our community :)

Very good food, plus pizza for the kids (as well as for adults…)
Didn’t expect to get a taste of Philly in Ojai, but the pizza and bagels were incredible. One of the owners I met, Tony, was super friendly and welcoming. A must-try for anyone visiting!

I was really charmed by this restaurant, the dishes, the attention paid to the preparation and presentation and all in a very relaxed atmosphere. The team is made up of adorable, caring, helpful people. It was a most pleasant moment in a secluded place in the heart of a valley like in the middle of the desert... I would really like to find a Pinyon Paris, a Pinyon London, a Pinyon Berlin... but, there is no There's only one and it's Pinyon Ojai! Thank you again and thank you very much for this suspended moment. P.S.: an effort can still be made on the atmosphere and the clarity of the little corner... 😊😉🙂👌🏻👍🏻🙏🏻

Tony and the team from Pinyon Ojai were an absolute joy to work with. I was designated on taking on a quest to search for a parting treat for our wedding guests. I knew I wanted to do something special and delicious pizza was the way to go. Tony was very easy to arrange our plans and easy to work with. From the day we chatted to the weekend up to the big day. I had selected 3 different pizzas to give as parting meal gifts for the guests. Everyone could smell the deliciousness from outside from the mobile brick over. Easy set up! Friendly team! They were very kind and really got our guests excited. If you ever are looking for something special and memorable for catering please stop by Pinyon in Ojai and ask for Tony. They don’t just do pizzas, they have a series of the best breads, they do lasagne Mondays, and my personal favorite is the white fish special on sesame seed bagel with capers and cucumbers. Thank you Tony and the Pinyon Fam for making our wedding night very special. Our guests raved about the goodbye food pizzas all day long the following day.
If you find yourself in Ojai, CA, do not miss out on this hidden gem—a delightful pizza and natural wine shop that’s capturing the hearts of locals and visitors alike. Run by a passionate Philadelphia local Tony Mont ans his buinesnes partner Jeremy Alben a pair of loving and talented chefs, this place is a culinary experience you won't forget. You can’t go wrong anytime they have a special on the menu as it is always 5 starts with acid and flavor alike.
The pizza is simply extraordinary. The crust is perfectly chewy and charred, embodying that ideal balance of crispy and tender. Each topping is carefully selected, showcasing fresh, local ingredients that elevate every bite. The creative combinations, like Goat Feta with fig leaf. Always changing always delicious.
Pair your slice with a glass of their meticulously curated natural wines, and you’re in for a treat. The selection is diverse and thoughtfully chosen, highlighting small, sustainable producers. From around the world, The staff is incredibly knowledgeable and eager to help you find the perfect wine to complement your meal.
The vibe is warm and inviting, with a laid-back atmosphere that feels like a cozy gathering spot for friends. The passion of the owners shines through in every detail, from the welcoming decor (frogs) to the authentic service.
Whether you’re a pizza aficionado or a natural wine enthusiast—or both—GET IN THE SWAMP!!!!
This shop is a must-visit. You’ll leave with a full belly and a happy heart, already planning your next visit. The flowers are also beautiful.
