Rory's Place Reviews
Not only was the food delicious but it was visually appealing as well!
I was very disappointed in the most expensive meal on the menu; the seafood tower. The oysters were so poor I couldn't believe it. The shrimp were old and tasted so. The crab was poorly presented and difficult to harvest Not at all what I anticipated.
A very poor visitor experience.

My husband and I stopped by after hearing great things about the place. We weren’t quite as impressed as we thought we would be. All the other meals we’ve had in Ojai were so good, we expected similar. The steak quality felt mid tier and the chicken was overly sweet and veggies soggy with oil. We did order their basic garden salad and that was delicious. For the price I don’t think it was quite worth it.
