This farm to table restaurant is impressive for its amazing food and incredible service. The wine was great. I was very impressed with this scrumptious meal. This time it was just me and my girlfriend, we sat outside late and was treated like royalty. I was there two months prior with a wedding group of 40 and the food, wine and service was equally impressive.

We stopped by and my wife had a iced mocha and I had a very tasty lemon bar. Both were very enjoyable. The owner was very friendly and helpful in answering our questions. We will go back.

We went for breakfast on a lovely spring morning and were not disappointed! Knead was exactly what we were looking for & our meal was delicious.
Fresh juices, freshly baked goods & too many yummy options to make a quick decision!
Lovely, helpful staff and a great option for families. Lots of outdoor seating in the courtyard. Kids and adults all happy :)

My husband and I shared the reuben sandwich and a specialty coconut rice bowl, both of which were absolutely delicious.
You order inside at the counter, and then can sit outdoors at any of the tables or picnic benches available. Our dog pretty much accompanies us everywhere, so we always appreciate outdoor seating options!

Reviewed By Wardieeee - Oxford, United Kingdom
Big choice of flavours but ey are not all as good as I expected. The lemon sorbet was superb, but the Ojai Orange was disappointing. The place is spotless, the prices fair, and I will try again, but not this week. But there are plenty of hot days in Ojai.

Cute lil Yogurt shop in downtown Ojai. They always have one Vegan yogurt selection. I am not a topping person but there looked to be alot of choices and the kids always seem happy! I went there for the first time during a downtown street festival and it made for a refreshing break with all the walking. The service is great and friendly!!

We stopped in for lunch while we were in Ojai. Very cute place with friendly staff. I had a veggie sandwich and salad. It was very tasty and I received a large quantity. Will try breakfast next time since it's served all day.

Nice spot on the main drag area for a snack or a tasty meal. Good mixture of locals as well as the day trippers. Burger combinations delight as does the truffle fries. Tasty?
