Busy Sunday, but didn’t have to wait too long. They were out of all sorts of food and beer, this really miffed the young ladies behind the counter who were then charged with telling every customer that. We grabbed the food pretty quick, all three orders were outstanding. The Jalapeño Bacon Smash burger was something I will be back for.

The food, while good, didn't really make up for the lack of atmosphere or attitude of the person who took our order. Outdoor seating only, which is fine but it was pretty chilly and not one outdoor heater was on. We felt as tho we had shown up unannounced @ the home of a relative:(.

The food was good. I felt it was a little pricey, but I was visiting from NH. The outdoor seating was fine. They're adding about 25 seats of indoor seating ready by January 1st, 2025.
Wheelchair accessibility: Yes. No issues for wheelchairs.

Neat location, ok food, overpriced kids options. If there’s a line I wouldn’t wait for the food we got.
Food was good and not too overpriced. I had the smash burger and fries.

The Tico salad had only 6 beans, about 5 or 6 pieces of meat and the huge whole leafs of butter lettuce were why the food got 3 stars. I really expected more beans & meat for the price & also think the meat was unflavored. It would be better if they chopped the lettuce even a little as if out on a date there's zero chance of eating that gracefully. It became messy and hard to eat due to the whole leaves.
Their Songbird was delicious and the ale my date had was good too according to him. There's no rating spot for the drinks but 5 out of 5 on the drinks at least. This will be a stop in the future when in Ojai looking for a quick drink. The seating area is seat yourself, which is nice, you can choose where you'd like to eat. There's fans above the area and I believe I saw heaters for when the weather is colder. Cute area on the corner faces their main street. Parking on the street is probably easier than in the Plaza they're at as it's rather small for a lot of businesses to share.
Clean eatery, nice healthy options, kid friendly environment, give them a try.

All dishes ordered by the four people in our group where barely edible. Excess sauce on tacos, Poke bowl was a very shallow bowl, little food in bowl, worst gyro I have ever tasted. Seating did not accommodate a busy crowd. One couple sat at table for eight people when there were smaller tables available. Staff sending women into men’s bathroom . Very odd and quirky place with poor tasting food.

First time here and the food was freaking amazing. They have an awesome menu and their prices were cheap. I recommend eating here the next time you're out.

Only sell burgers on certain days?
I want the burger you make but can't have it because it's Saturday, not Friday.. ?
Who does that?

During the order I asked how the fries were .. cheerful response .. the best .. but they served reheated and refried fries and I had to return them to get them to make me a fresh batch which they did. The burger which was priced at $22 was expensive but I ordered it .. but the bun was falling apart and mustard slathered all over .. ridiculously expensive for a poor quality burger. So on both fronts it was an avoidable meal. Bottled coke was good… they serve the one with sugar and not HFCS. So positive points on that.
