Ojai Rotie

The quality of the food + the vibe + decoration are on point. ( The best!!! First time here in this place. We had other foods before at Ojai but this place will be our number one choice next time we visit Ojai again. We 2 people seated outside under the shade. The area looks so nice. We can’t order too much but I think we select the great dishes. So we ordered: sour dough bread Half chicken with 2 sides + lamb burger Next time we might we Half or whole chicken with Lamb skewered instead. (2 of the potatoes side that come with half chicken tastes better than caramelized cauliflower tho. I might get carrot or something else next time) We are so full and had a great time there.

Really delicious food. Rotisserie chicken is tender and exceptionally well. Spiced portions are substantial salads. Picnic sides are delicious. The garlic sauce dip is incredible. Outside seating area is gorgeous. It’s early spring here and the leaves are not yet on the trees, but the canopy provided by the large trees with the lights on wires and trellises it’s just magical. Service sizes are generous, and the prices are very very reasonable.

Are we in Spain or Ojai?! I love the outdoor seating. From the nourishing, clean, simple meals to the ambiance of the garden patio, Ojai Rotie has it all! This is my wife’s and my go-to spot for an amazing whole chicken dish. The plate with two sides is an incredible deal—we split it all the time! We love the local wine selection, and the Dry Brooks Cider is a must-try. Don’t get me started on the sourdough… all around, 5 stars!!

Food was delicious! Highly recommend their dips and sourdough bread for a delicious meal. Outdoor dining - amazing for a casual or fancy outing. Great to go in a bigger group to split all the menu options in a more buffet style.

Fun casual place with very nice outside seating. Staff was super friendly. Food was some of best we had in a long time. Definitely a go out of our way to return. (order food at the counter, order drinks at a the hut – super efficient while still having friendly and proactive wait staff bring the food.) Uploading a pic of the chicken (juicy!. recco to make sure to get the potatoes as a side – maybe even as two sides if there are several of you!) Sadly forgot to take a photo of all until we nearly demolished it all.

Had a 90th Birthday Celebration for my Mom here and it was awesome. We had 20 people at 3 tables, plus an appetizer table because I didn’t want everyone to just sit down right away. We didn’t reserve entire restaurant, but it was very comfortable and easy for some people to mingle and some to sit. Food was incredible and service was so loving. All 20 guests were blown away by how perfect it was. Thank you so much Karen, Leigha, and Brook!

If you don’t bring your business here it would be one of the biggest mistakes of your life. 15/10. Chef (Fern) speaks four and a half languages and we couldn’t contain our laughter when he brought his delightful banter to our table. We were celebrating a birthday and once Fern found out he immediately waltzed away and brought back a large plate full of delectable brownies. Additionally, the food was top tier and seed oil free!! Will be coming back even if I move away from California trust me, it’s worth it.

Had dinner and wine with my wife at Rotie last night. We shared the eggplant dish, 1/2 a chicken meal with sides and lamb kofta. EVERYTHING was stellar. The owner and chef came out to check on us. They were absolutely lovely. The service was warm and attentive. We had a very charming experience.

Super fresh food, very generously portioned. In general great The atmosphere is great too. Highly recommend Service was generally friendly the lady taking the order clearly had other places she'd rather be at. But the people who bring your food to you are amazing!!

I'm going to round this up to a 5/5. I think it deserves it. I thought the flavors were all very interesting and the rotisserie chicken is one of the best that I've had. Still had flavor and juicy, yet cooked all the way through. The flavors were interesting because of the seasoning that was on it. Lebanese? I don't really get that often. The sourdough was also REALLY good. We ended up buying 1 as a "side" of 2 lbs of bread.... then got 1 to-go to eat at home. If anything I would recommend the chicken and sourdough bread.

Go a bit earlier than 12 because people start lining up. The server at the register was rude. We were eating with one hand and swatting the flies away with the other. The dippity dip was very overpriced, the chicken was hard to eat, and the cauliflowers were cold. Nonetheless we all left full from all the pita bread.

This restaurant definitely gives off somewhat of a rustic farm vibe through its decor and the food. We arrived on a Sunday night and waited about 5-10 minutes before being assigned a table outdoors that looks just like a wooden picnic table. Then we were told to line up inside when we were ready to order. Interesting set up but it worked. After you order, they bring out the food to you. The food was absolutely delicious. We got the Picnic for 4 meal which comes with a whole chicken, 2 large sides, and some other things. I must say, this was probably the BEST rotisserie chicken I've ever eaten (but tbh most of the rotisserie chickens I've eaten come from costco for $5 lmao). It was seasoned so well and was so flavorful; the skin had a great crunch and the meat was extremely juicy. With the first bite, I was amazed. I would come back for just the chicken. The other parts of the meal were just alright in my opinion but a good complement. The service seemed subpar in my opinion - not that it was bad or anybody was rude. It's just that there is basically no service here. You line up yourself to go order at a cash register. I had to fill up my own pitcher of water for a few minutes and bring cups to my own table. When I went inside and asked for togo boxes at the end of the meal, they told me to go get it myself and that they were outside. The workers honestly seemed annoyed that I was disturbing their conversation when I asked, or maybe it was a stupid question... This seems to be one of the more popular restaurants in Ojai and I'm glad I gave it a try. Anyways I may be back if I am in the mood to eat like a farmer and have some good rotisserie chicken in a rustic setting.

Excellent, excellent, excellent. Please go! Not only is this a beautiful spot to relax and enjoy a lovely evening, but the unique and menu and variety of options makes it a place I want to go back to immediately. Two of us shared a 1/2 chicken with cardamom carrots and caramelized cauliflower and the dippity dips. It was more than enough and we happily took some home. The chicken was seasoned well and nice and tender. The sides were both super flavorful. The dips were excellent; loved that charred eggplant! Both the manouche bread and sourdough are great for dipping and grabbing all the great food together. On a Sunday evening, we didn't have to wait for a seat and the food didn't seem to take long. Do yourself a favor and go here when in Ojai! Can't wait to go back.

Nestled in downtown Ojai, this casual outdoor space was perfectly located for grabbing a bite and enjoying the local scenery. The alcohol kombucha tasted healthy and provided a nice buzz. Unfortunately the chicken was a bit dry and lacked flavor. The side veggies (cardamom carrots and slaw), however, were hearty and perfectly seasoned.

Ojai Rotie really knows how to keep a hungry person happy. I planned ahead like a responsible adult (for once) and ordered in advance for the big game day, fully expecting the usual weekend madness. And, of course, I was right--arrived at 12:25, and the place was buzzing. But the new semi-roofed patio? A game changer. No more dodging raindrops while trying to enjoy perfectly crispy chicken. Pickup was smoother than my last online date. I walked up, said the magic words ("I'm here for pickup"), and boom--order in my hands within three minutes. Efficiency at its finest. And let's talk value: $34 for a whole rotisserie chicken, two sides, and sourdough bread? That's a feast for 3-4 adults--or just one really ambitious eater with zero regrets. Ojai Rotie remains undefeated.

We ate here twice in a day! We were there for lunch, and we enjoyed it so much we picked up dinner from there as well. Super healthy, beautiful and colorful to look and most importantly it tasted yummy. Great friend staff as well. Two thumbs way up!

I have to say it was OK. The ambiance was great. Such pretty views. The wine was amazing and the service was wonderful. The chicken was dry and the sides were OK. We have Sitti and Neomonde in Raleigh, so I guess I am spoiled. I'd rather eat there. The only thing that was better was the view and the wine.

Great food and amazing service. I love coming here and getting my favorite chicken. You must try the Sourdough bread.

Great place to enjoy a Saturday brunch with our dog alongside us. The patio is nice and spacious but if you show up there between 12-1p you might want to expect a wait. We lined up around 1145 and were seated immediately but it filled up pretty quickly. The food was nice and enjoyable but honestly the lamb was the star of the show rather than the chicken. For two of us we had a quarter chicken meal, lamb, and side of hummus and that was more than enough food. The wine was good too though I wish they had a cocktail on offer. Overall I feel like a bit better communication on process would have been nice (e.g., it was unclear whether we should have picked up side plates and utensils ourselves or whether this was meant for the servers to bring to us). Couple of quick things: - My partner didn't like the hummus (too grainy for her) but I liked it - Choose your own table (I liked this especially so that we could choose the best table for us with our dog) - It's a shaded patio which I thought was nice - not so much sun but also it wasn't cold on a 67 degree afternoon

A bit of a wait . Great customer service . So busy which is a great sign. Seating is outside . Ordering area is pretty small . Counter service . Yummy food!

Around 5PM on a Sunday, there was no line. Sat in the patio, and with the heaters and candles, we were comfortable. Ordered a half chicken ($24) which came with 2 sides. Got the Cardamom carrots and red quinoa, as well as the caramelized cauliflower. Chicken was a winna, winna, chicken dinna, with the meat being succulent and juicy, and the skin citrusy and oh so flavorful. SO and I really liked the cauliflower, whilst the carrots wasn't his favorite, but I quite liked it. Lebanese bread was also seasoned well, while the pickled veggies complemented the meal well and the garlic sauce was OP. Reasonable cost, and SO and I were able to split it and be pretty full. Cashier wasn't the most friendly, but everyone else was incredible - even the chef(?) came out and asked us how the food was and interacted with our pup in the patio. Someone else even came and brought a personal water bowl :,) Would love to bring my parents here, and try out the potatoes as well.

This spot is wonderful! Low key vibe, beautiful patio. Food and drink variety was perfection.

Another win at rotie! Wine + lamb + service was all superb! Perfect ambience and such a lovely view.

Ojai is one of my favorite places to visit and even though I had passed by Ojai Rotie a few times in prior visits I don't know why I didn't stop in before. This particular Ojai visit there weren't too many places that was either: someplace I'd been to and was looking for something new or like a chain and I wasn't in the mood for Jersey Mike's. I think their large outdoor dining area that always seemed packed was one of the reasons that dissuaded me and the line to order made me think they'd be out of stuff or perhaps act like they didn't need my business. I was pleasantly surprised when the line moved relatively quickly-it allowed me to look at the menu to decide, confirm, review and reconfirm but by the time my turn came up I knew exactly what I was going to get: The half meal with carrots and tater salad and deviled eggs; I'm a sucker for them. The eggs were delicious rich but not greasy and the chicken was the best French style chicken I had seasoned just right so you still tasted the chicken but the mix with the turnips and toum not the mention the flatbread. I'm definitely glad I finally made my way here.

The Food was great, the Ambience phenomenal, great options to choose from, cannot wait to go again.

Great food, friendly service, nice outdoor seating with heat lamps & dog-friendly. We arrived at 6p, there was a line, waited 40min. They ran out of roti chop chop salad, cauliflower & naan. Shortly after we ordered, they ran out of rotisserie chicken & bread. We enjoyed everything we ordered: sour dough bread with hummus, rotisserie chicken, potatoes, red lentils, purslane tabooli & the lemonade. You can only make reservations for 5+ so I recommend going early.

Food was fresh and delicious! We ordered the quarter chicken with two sides each and it was the perfect amount of food. The chicken was tender and juicy, the garlic spread was very garlicky and bursting with flavor. The two sides we ordered were the potatoes plus cauliflower. Both were perfectly seasoned and a great pairing to the chicken. The outdoor seating was nice, very casual picnic style tables. It was a very hot day but we fortunately got a shady spot with a bit of a breeze. The alcoholic drinks are in a separate area where you order and pay. My hard cider was crisp and icy cold, just what you want on a hot day. Service was good, not great but the food made up for it.

Great selection of Mediterranean cuisine & chicken was juicy & fresh. We also picked up some fresh bread. Nice outdoor space with fresh flowers.

This might actually be the best rotisserie chicken I've ever had. Cooked perfectly, delicious crispy skin, and great blend of spices. Also really enjoyed the roast potatoes with aioli sauce. We ordered a loaf of sourdough to take home too and it was fantastic. The patio is beautiful and lively without being loud or overwhelming. Really enjoyed the food and ambiance and plan to be back.

The best food and dining experience during our visit to Ojai! We went at 12pm Sunday and it was getting busy! Plenty of outdoor seating in a beautiful open space, with benches and rustic vibes. - drinks: Kellenaid (lavender, pixie tangerine and lemonade) for a refreshing and tart drink. - quarter chicken plate with carrots and potatoes as sides - the garlic dip is delicious and the rub on the chicken is SO flavorful. *potatoes for the side is a must!!* - chop salad - with papaya, feta cheese, chicken, tomatoes, cucumbers ~ summer in a salad!!! it was refreshing, pop of color and flavor with a light dressing and lots of crunch

This corner restaurant is very welcoming with lots of outdoor seating (dog friendly) under a big tree. You order at the store front inside and then they bring out the food to you. We got: - Benny sandwich (4/5): it was well balanced I liked the garlic aioli with the chicken. I liked that it tasted clean but the wrap was a bit tough for me and I wish it had more flavor. - 1/4 Rotiserrie chicken plate (4/5): the chicken was solid but a bit dry inside and we wish the carrots were cooked through more but overall balanced! Overall a solid spot and we really liked the vibes!

I've tried a few times but this place isn't very friendly I had a simple question to ask but the host quickly wound up but thankfully didn't deliver some rule or admonish me for breaking some rule. She was not welcoming but just this side of tolerant. The counter service person huffed to rush me to leave as I put my wallet back in my bag after I'd stood ten minutes waiting for 3 women to consider the menu and take their time as the line grew longer Previously I had the chicken. It was rubbery. Today is the last time I'll go for the take away watermelon water It made my stomach turn

Always love Ojai for the culinary delights and ambiance. The restaurant lived up and surpassed all expectations. The chicken was amazing with taste of tumeric. As sides we had the potatoes and slaw. Also pretty amazing taste. The meal came with a French baguette and pita and hummus. All together plenty of food though wish we could have had a bit more of the sides. Several of us also had the soup special of the day which was a lentil soup with garlic and onion. It was amazing. You order at a counter and then find a place outside to sit. It was full but we found a table near a heater. You can order wine in another adjacent building. Order came out pretty quick.

Yummy rotisserie chicken, healthy side dishes and freshly baked sourdough bread in a casual outdoor setting that feels like you're in a park. Shady trees provide a very pleasant ambience. Service was efficient but not very friendly. The chicken with delicious as was the potato salad and broccolini salat. I recommend bringing a loaf of sourdough home

The service here was impeccable and the vibe was great, with great music and a comfy outdoor setting. I ordered the sourdough brie appetizer with the We Love Benny sandwhich. The bread was delicious and freshly made, my only wish is that it was warmed up. The sandwhich was a little different than what I was expecting (it is more of a wrap) but equally delicious with great flavor from the chicken and garlic sauce. I also got a side of the hummus which I spread on the sandwhich to give more kick. I would love to come back to try to rotisserie chicken plate and the hummus dip in the future, as I saw a number of people around me order them and it looked tasty

Have been wanting to try Ojai Rotie for a while and finally made it there and it did not disappoint! My partner and I split the 1/2 chicken plate which came with flat bread, pickled turnips (?), a garlic sauce, and a choice of 2 sides. We went with the roasted potatoes and the lentil salad, both were INCREDIBLE. The chicken was cooked perfectly and delicious. The flavors in the lentil salad were delightful, cold and crisp on a warm day. The lemon aioli with the potatoes was perfection. There were quite a few bugs swarming around while we were eating which wasn't ideal but not much they can do both that in the heat! It was a lot of food for a good value and we are looking forward to coming back again!

The food here is simply divine and unmatched when it comes to Lebanese rotisserie chicken. I was shook that I hadn't been here before because it was so delicious and actually pretty reasonably priced for what you get. The food is the all star here and the rotisserie chicken is an absolute must! The spices on the chicken and that crispy skin I will dream about. The chicken was super flavorful and moist (sorry everyone hates that word but you know exactly how delicious it has to be for me to use it). The sides are also as good as the mains. I'll also be dreaming about their potatoes tossed in spices and oils topped with a delicious white aioli. The side salad of carrots, chickpeas and couscous were a little too spicy for me so I wouldn't get them again but that's a preference issue, many people will like these! Also for a starter I got the deviled eggs. They are a very generous portion and stuffed with filling. The celery gave it a nice crunch that I am not used to, it was different but good. The food here is easily a 5/5 and I can't wait to come back for some more of their famous chicken and different sides. The gentlemen working behind the scenes are the rockstar of this spot and honestly are fun to watch as they prep all of the plates and cook. A lot of work goes into their plating and they have a pretty good system. They crank out so many dishes I was impressed. We had a bit of a snafu with the girl named Abby who took our order at the register, I wouldn't say she was unfriendly, just had a more laid back approach and unfortunately didn't catch when we said our order was to go so she gave us dining in tickets....we ended up waiting for over 30 minutes for our food because there was confusion why our order was wasn't seated outside with the numbers when we actually were waiting inside the kitchen area for our to go bags. This caused our food to sit for a while on the plates that they serve at the restaurant and after the 30 minutes one really nice guy ended up questioning why we had been waiting so long by the kitchen area and we told him our orders were to go and told him our number and that's when he realized what had happened with the girl at the register putting that our food was for dine in yet when they were taking the food out, they couldn't find our Table. Once the different gentleman working the kitchen figured this out they had to talk with the gal about it who was working the register and they were super quick and apologetic to make it right. It was a little unfortunate that the girl didn't apologize to us or acknowledge it to us directly, but it seems like the guys that have been working here a long time handled it, and they definitely took a lot of ownership apologizing and even giving us some free desserts to go. This experience if not handled correctly, would've definitely left us with sour taste in our mouth and we would've probably left a lesser stared review BUT when people that work at the business truly care about the customer experience and do everything to make it right when an accident happens, that's all you could ask in my opinion! The guys were super cool and the free dessert made it all right in my books. And trust me, now we all know how their takeout system works so we won't get caught in that situation again lol Sorry for the long review but I definitely wanted to highlight that the gentlemen working at this restaurant are super cool and hard-working. I love supporting local businesses and it's clear that this restaurant is a fan favorite in the community, as it was packed on a Sunday night. The prices were super reasonable as I got a half chicken combo with two sides and bread for $25, I don't know how you can beat those prices and it definitely was shareable for two people. The food was insanely delicious and I really can't wait to come back and introduced more people to the spot.

A popular Ojai eatery for chicken lovers. First you stake out a place in the patio, then you go inside to order and pay, they will bring the food out to you. Delicious chicken, hearty sides and rotie bread with herb butter. We also got watermelon juice, so good and refreshing on a warm spring day. Caveat for first-time Ojai visitors - go Feb-Mar and Oct- Nov weekdays to avoid extreme heat and freeze and massive crowds. Hit the trails early in the morning (behind Libby Bowl and Signal Rd trail) and just veg out the remainder of the day at the Ojai Valley Inn or your favorite b&b. Let's be honest... Ojai is no longer this mystical, sleepy Shangri-La mountain oasis that it once was. Social media, reality tv, and hybrid work culture have turned the place into a tawdry playground of L.A. elite. Expect high prices and long wait. I wouldn't mind a timed-entry system similar to the national parks.

Great food, delicious bread and wonderful views. I've only ever picked up to go but they have very cute picnic style seating. Service is always friendly when picking up and when buying baked goods- which they also sell at the farmers market!

I still haven't stopped dreaming of Ojai Rotie. Rotisserie style chicken + Sourdough=heaven!! My husband and I were so impressed by the fresh flavors, fun atmosphere and most importantly seriously good chicken. Fun outdoor seating and with heaters we were able to be comfortable and take in this outdoor experience. I was also pleasantly surprised at the portions and price. This will be a regular dining experience for us and we will happily be buying their organic sourdough on the regular, as my experiment in making sourdough was a failure lol. Love Lebanese food and definitely could taste the garlic, cumin and other herby flavors. We ordered half of a chicken plate with yummy herb roasted taters, cauliflower, and sourdough. Everything was excellent. No dry over cooked or sitting all day rotisserie chicken here! So flavorful and moist. The potatoes were seriously good. The bread was traditional fresh sourdough, but their homemade butter took it to the next level. The meal also came with pita bread, which paired nicely with the meal and was so good with the garlic paste. Love that they have takeout options. The staff were welcoming and the chef made rounds to ensure everyone was happy. Can't wait to return.

Nice outdoors patio. My food (sort of a bowl) was cold and I expected it to be hot. Not much interesting flavor or taste. The lamb burger was flavorful but it wasn't me who ordered it. Just had a few bites.

It's a little pricey, but ambiance and portions are nice. The Benny wrap could have been a little more flavorful, but it was all fresh food and rather filling. The size small bread side is about half of a sourdough loaf (huge!!!). The Syrian mint iced tea will run you about 7.00. Overall, pretty good but we felt the sandwich should've come with a side with how much it cost (19!!). Standing in line was fast to order, I think we waited about 15 min outside for food around peak lunch time so it wasn't bad. You can also get a wine or beer at the wine box stand in the courtyard.

Fabulous place to get some food on their beautiful patio. We arrived right before 2 and only waited a few minutes. Beautiful day and what a spacious and lovely patio to sit down and have some food. We ordered the whole chicken, a few sides, and the dip trio. I love the communal nature of sharing a bunch of items with people that go so well together. The chicken was delicious, and it was great having all the items to keep making different bites with it. A great place to eat a whole lot of food and enjoy the fresh air. :)

I came here with my siblings when they were in town. Food was really good, I had eaten but tried few things and they were good. Seating area was great and had plenty of seats. I would recommend it and bring my husband here to try more foods

The house-made sourdough was absolutely delicious -- the kind of bread you keep reaching for. We shared the half chicken, which was plenty for two and packed with flavor. We also ordered a side of hummus and pita, and ended up making our own little DIY bites with the chicken, garlic sauce, and hummus... so good. The outdoor patio had a great vibe too -- perfect spot for a laid-back meal.

First off, there was a line to get in, which isn't usually a big deal, but after waiting 15mins for the first line - we waited again 15 more mins for the second line?! Only to find out that BOTH chicken and bread were all sold out? Then we sit and the servers looked very confused as to who's table to bring things and mistakenly brought things to wrong tables. We don't get our food for another 30mins and had to remind the servers we still needed our food. Terrible service, will not return.

One of my favorite spots in Ojai. Delicious and creative dishes at reasonable prices. Beautiful patio and amazing and friendly owners and staff. Couldn't recommend it more!

So many rave reviews so we were excited to try it. On a busy saturday morning, there was a short line of people waiting to be seated, after brief wait and we were shown to a table and went to counter to order & pay. There was one women seated at a cash register taking orders; she was super polite and welcoming asking if we had been there before or if we needed a little clarification on the menu. She was not bothered by the line forming behind us, wanting to be 100% sure we found the the prefect item on their menu. We tried the roti chicken & the habibi (lamb) burger; both were very fresh and tasty....but we agreed both items needed more sauce, spice or zing. I'd go back and ask for extra sauce.

Amazing Lebanese/French style food with outdoor seating and a lively ambiance. Service can take a while during busy hours but it is worth the wait. Highly recommend the chicken as well as the freshly baked sourdough.

I'm so glad we stumbled upon this place! Service was very friendly and helpful. Loved the ease of ordering at the counter, and food came shockingly fast. The menu had a lot to choose from and all sounded yummy. Our selections did not disappoint. The chicken was DELICIOUS and I loved my wrap. The outdoor area was so cute and cozy, too. It was pricey, but so good. I'd definitely recommend.

The best place to eat in Ojai? Ojai Rotie. Juicy rotisserie chicken with crispy skin, savory muhammara with zatar-slathered pita, spit-roasted potatoes with a mayo-like sauce, housemade sourdough, and a load of Lebanese-style sides. So much to choose from you'll want to come back over and over again. All can be enjoyed on a shaded patio along with local wines and beers. Highly recommended!

We went here for dinner on a Friday evening around Christmas and it was not too busy! We ordered the whole chicken plate for 2 to share. It comes with a whole chicken, 2 sides, pickled veggies, garlic sauce and 8 pieces of pita bread for ~$35 (the half chicken place was about $10 less). It was filling enough for 2 to share and be extremely full afterwards. We ordered the potatoes and the cucumber salad as our sides and they complimented the chicken well. The chicken skin was very crispy, lemon-y and flavorful without being burnt. The chicken itself tasted like rotisserie chicken. Would definitely recommend getting at least 1 meal here while in Ojai and would recommend the chicken plate for the most bang for your buck! Seating is outdoor only, they had a covered tent up due to the rain. They have outdoor heaters as well. Patio is dog friendly!

The food was so delicious and tasty! We ordered the picnic which feeds four and the deviled eggs. Everything was sooo tasty but they were already out of Cauliflower when we got there which was something we were looking forward too. Either way, the food was delicious and I have been thinking about the chicken since we ate here.

Love the ambiance here but not the food. My party of 3 came for a late lunch on Sunday around 2 pm and it wasn't too crowded. The way it works is first you order indoors and then find a seat. They'll bring your food out to you shortly after. There's no seating indoors, but there's plenty of space in their lovely outdoor patio. I'm sure it's beautiful at night once they turn on the stringed lights. My friend and I split a half rotisserie chicken ($24) and chose sides of roasted potatoes and carmelized cauliflower. It comes with pickled turnips, toum, and manouche bread on the side. We also ordered their baklava to try ($13 for 3 pieces). The food came out unbelievably fast, within a minute or two. We just sat down and they brought the platter out right after. I guess everything is already pre-cooked, so all they need to do is assemble the food once it's ordered. I was disappointed by the chicken. It was bland, and the breast meat was incredibly dry. The thigh/drumstick piece was at least moist but still on the bland side. Of the sides, the potatoes were the best thing on the plate. but we were very disappointed by the cauliflower as it was very cold, not even room temperature. Our favorite part of the meal was the baklava. At least we ended the meal on a good note.

Oops i forgot to take a picture of my half chicken when i first got it. It looked so good i had to start eating. And i was right. Chicken is so juicy and flavorful. I didn't see many people ordered soup but they're missing out. Soup is homey and unique flavor. It's little sour but goes very well with chicken. If you like sour taste, i highly recommend. Would come back to ojai just for this place
