“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!“
“We love this place. Went again last night for my father's and sister's birthday (yes, they're the exact same day). We always bring our own wine because we make it, but I overheard another group saying their friends had recommended they bring a bottle, so I'm pretty sure their corkage fee is super reasonable. Anyway, we know the owner, she always comes around, always gives us the best few minutes she's got.This place is about three blocks past the end of the main strip in town. If you don't go to the golf course, you might never know it was there, but it's consistently got the best high-end menu and shorter waits than any place in town. There's multiple must-try items on the regular menu and the specials always double that. We always go as a family, five or more and we often can't try everything on the menu that looks good.“
“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 couldn't stop talking about the food. It wasn't the boldness of the flavors but rather how dialed in - how balanced - they were. I'm not sure I've had better food. We had the scallops for an appetizer. Then followed that with the Rigatoni & Tortelli. And the ricotta cheesecake for dessert. When we weren't talking we were groaning. What an unbelievable experience. Can't wait to come back!“
“We drove up from Ventura and had one of the best meals of any restaurant we have dined at not only in Ventura but Paris, New York, Amsterdam, and more. I an in the travel business and I can say that the experience was better than we have while traveling.The atmosphere is quaint and unpretentious and my wife loved the food. Have a glass of wine, relax and enjoy the simple and delicious food.It looks like the owners and staff take great pride in their work.On our way back this weekend.“
“This place is incredible. Their meatball sandwich was the best I've ever had!!! It even came with a salad and pasta salad. They have a cute little farm stand on honor system wow!!! They offer fresh local orange juice and lemonade. The kids pizza was also very good. Ordered it for the kids and it is way more than they could eat by themselves. Can't wait to go back and try the lasagna. The wait staff was extremely nice! Quick service and knowledgeable. The outdoor patio had lots of heaters and a beautiful view of the orchards. There's even extra parking in a dirt lot next to the restaurant if the front spots are takenParking: Lots of parking. There's a dirt block to the side of the restaurantKid-friendliness: They have a small kids menu and lids for drinks“
“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.“
