"Ojai (and frankly, much of Los Angeles) seems to have caught on to Radio Roma, Ojai’s mezcal bar and hi-fi listening room that spins vinyl all night. Attached to Taco Roma, which opens for lunch, Radio Roma comes alive at night as guests settle in with glasses of chilled red wine or frozen palomas. The star of the menu may actually be the churros, freshly fried and sliced in thirds with a dollop of whipped cream and slashes of dulce de leche. Nostalgia twinges with the arrival of these cinnamon-sugar-dusted sticks, whether your first memories of them were at Costco, Disneyland, or a churreria cart on the street. Radio Roma’s churros encapsulate that feeling with each bite as the sounds of Italo disco or synth-pop drift through the dim room. — Rebecca Roland, deputy editor, Eater Southern California/Southwest" - Matthew Kang
