As we were scrolling through Yelp to figure out what we wanted for lunch, this was the first thing that popped up. It's great to see that the circle is getting more and more diverse with all these great food spots opening up! Glancing through the pictures, this seemed like nothing like any of the other restaurants and even better, the prices seemed very affordable! Here's what we ordered: **Spicy Ojai Chicken Sandwich: As soon as this was brought to our table, I was overwhelmed with happiness. The size of the karaage chicken was ginormous! The chicken was piping hot and was just amazing. Everything complimented the burger so well and you also get a pickle on the side, which tops it all off. Hands down, best chicken sandwich I've ever had. (5/5) **Spicy Miso Burger: I didn't have this myself but I trust my girlfriend's judgement because we have the same taste buds. This was the first time she finished a burger before me and that alone was impressive. The fried egg on top was the icing on top. (5/5) **Wagyu Fries: The wagyu beef was amazing and perfectly cooked but there just wasn't enough meat on top. However, very delicious. (4/5) The service here is awesome. Everyone was so friendly and patient as we were looking up at the menu for several minutes in the beginning. Place is super clean and even though it's a small interior area, there's plenty of seats available. On the bright side, they share outdoor seating with the Wahoo's right next door. On the flip side, they don't have a public fountain beverage machine but they do offer free refills. They have staff going around to make sure everything's okay, to make sure tables are clean, and to offer to take away your plate when finished. 110% recommended. Will be back in the near future! Welcome to Orange, Ojai Burger! read more

Yum-my! Swung by recently to try out these wagyu burgers and they did not disappoint. Flavors worked well with the tenderness and juiciness of the burger patties, and who doesn't love grilled onions and mushrooms or even some avocado and kewpie mayo?! The karaage fries were also really tasty - perfectly fried so you get a nice crunch yet still have some potato fluffiness inside. Wrapped up this meal by sharing an ube mochi waffle with friends because who can say no to mochi?? I did wish the waffle was a little more mochi like in consistency and texture, but the flavor was good. Perhaps when I come back next time, it'll be to try a chicken sandwich and the matcha waffle :) read more

Parent having been craving this place since I brought home cold burgers that they ate the next day and loved, so we decided to make the trek out to the OC to celebrate the Lunar New Year. We decided to order items we hadn't before, and since we were still stuffed from LNYE dinner and lunch, we shared a few items. Everything was still delicious and Elijah was amazing. read more

I usually just order the spicy miso burger. Best burger they have in my opinion. The service is decent. Now their shakes are really really good, a shame the machine was down today. Only thing that's a little plain is their menu. Very boring. Also since their change of ownership I have noticed that the quality of food has gone down which is why I decided for a four star. Also it's 15 for just a burger which is a little on the high side for the quality I've had recently. Always very clean and fresh. I was just told they use 100% wagyu. Maybe my burger was just overcooked but it did feel like ur ordinary patty from the supermarket. I'll have to give it another try then. read more

I hovered between 3 and 4 stars for Ojai Burger, but ultimately went with 3. Saw the feature on Eater LA and came on a Friday night to try it out. I got the spicy chicken sandwich and hubby the Ojai burger. It's an order at the counter setup, you get a number, find a table and your food is brought out to you when ready. Food came out fairly quick, but my sandwich wasn't very warm and the sauce (which is miso based) was def on the saltier side. Hubby said his burger was fine, nothing too special. Portions are on the smaller side and pricier side (think Umami Burger). Service is friendly, you bus your tables after and the outside patio is shared with Wahoos, so you can grab a beer with your meal if you want. Parking in the structure in Lemon (free!) is your best bet. read more

Ojai Burger - Spicy chicken burger - Burgers Near Me - Orange, California

This place serves Wagyu burgers and chicken sandwiches with Japanese flavors. Burgers were excellent. They were thick, juicy, and packed with flavor, while still tasting pretty clean for a burger. No weird aftertaste or excessive oil. All burgers and sandwiches have Kewpie mayo and shredded cabbage, and are served on a soft brioche bun. Some have avocado and sunny side up egg, depending on what you order. Can't go wrong with the original Ojai Wagyu Burger, but I love the Spicy Miso Burger. The sauce has a mild kick and greater depth in flavor. Wagyu patty was excellent on both. Looked like they were fully cooked but were still juicy. Texture was similar to a meatloaf. Topa Topa Chicken Sandwich was massive. The karaage chicken was almost twice the size of the bun. This was also packed with flavor, although I still can't determine what Topa Topa sauce is. It comes with avocado slices, fried crispy onions, Kewpie mayo, and shredded lettuce. Only recommendation I would make is to add something acidic, like pickles to burgers and sandwiches. I think that's the only element I was missing in these. It's located right by Orange Circle so parking can be a hassle. Just expect to walk a bit no matter where you park. It's located next to Snooze A.M. Eatery so there's always some crowd gathered around this area. I ordered online to avoid any potential long lines and wait. I can't wait to try more items but will avoid coming on a weekend. read more

This place is located in the Orange Circle area. There is a large free parking garage a block away on Lemon Street or, if you're lucky, there's street parking. I came here for an early lunch on a weekday. I think I was their first customer of the day as there was no one there when I arrived but by the time I left it was filling up. The interior has a window counter plus a small number of tables but there is a nice patio area that Ojai shares with their neighbor, Wahoos. I chose the Ojai Wagyu Burger, Shake-Shake Fries (with garlic parmesan seasoning), and a chocolate milkshake. Their thing is to put a Japanese spin on the food (burgers and chicken sandwiches). You order at the counter and they bring your food to your table. My fries came out within a couple minutes while the milkshake took about five minutes and the burger five minutes after that. The fries were done perfectly - no complaints - but didn't seem particularly inspired. The basket full of fries was enough for two people to eat; I gave it the college try but came up short. The milkshake was exceptional, the quintessential shake. Very thick and chocolatey with a couple of Pocky stuck into it, it is one of the best you'll find anywhere. The burger...WOW. The beef patty was thick yet so soft and tender. The flavor of the juicy beef was never lost amongst the other ingredients layered on top of it: shredded cabbage, mayonnaise (Kewpie mayo from Japan...yes, it does taste different), a "secret sauce", and a fried egg. The egg, of course, makes it all rather messy but so delicious. The tasty brioche bun was not huge but held on and somehow kept from disintegrating until my last bite. This was a winner of a burger. Thanks to Les S. for putting this on my radar. Seeing other yelper's reviews is the biggest - and maybe only - benefit of Yelp. read more

I'm so sad that place has become undone. The food has become very lacking and very expensive. I had a chicken bowl, the chicken was dry and unseasoned, the rice was soggy, the burgers were dry and flavorless. The service was almost laughable and the quality dismal. Workers were playing loud music such that it was impossible to hear anything else. It seems like they have new owners because everything is far different. Sad to say this. DO NOT EAT HERE unless you want to be disappointed, especially if you have previously enjoyed this previously enjoyable gem. read more

We stopped by Ojai Burger while spending a day at the Orange Circle with friends. We had the Spicy Miso and Topa Topa burgers and an order of fries. Everything was delicious! The service was great, food was ready quickly and we had the indoors mostly to ourselves. We will definitely be back soon! read more

Food: I really enjoyed the different options of food. The choices were mainly Asian fusion and very unique so much i haven't seen this combinations anywhere else. The quality of the food was very basic, decent quality but nothing outstanding in my opinion. Potato Croquette: 3.5/5 Could have used more sauce, very basic. Tastes like the type you microwave Topa Topa Fries: 3/5 Shoelace fries with light sauce and small pieces of meat. This one to me was lacking as the sauce was layered but still not enough and the few pieces of meat had me wanting more. Topa Topa Chicken Sandwich: 4/5 This has a good flavor, again could have used more sauce but I did appreciate the filing sandwich and the fact the chicken was much larger than the bun but still way to hold. Ambiance/Service: I appreciate that the bathroom was open even though there was a crowd of people from the club/bar on the other side of the street. The person who helped us was very welcoming and kind to each person he interacted with. Overall, I would say the sauce quantity was lacking but still had good flavor. I would be interested in trying again if i'm ever on this side of town. read more

Buttermilk Fried Chicken eventually soured and flew away. The coop was empty for some time until Ojai said "Hi". Fresh paint, a fresh spin and Ojai was in. There is cashless counter service with a few high tops inside and on the adjoining patio. Your choice is a Burger, a Fried Chicken Sandwich or Wahoo Tacos next door. Oh, and there are 8 different ways to make a mess of the humble French Fry. These are nothing more than a routine Poutine. If you're going here for McDonald's like Fries, go to any McDonalds instead. My Okonomi Fries arrived mushy, gooey, gluey, sticky, messy and as limp as an E. D. Ad. Perfect if you've had all your teeth extracted. Gum away as even your neighbor's cat would step over these. They were squirted with Okonomi Sauce (ersatz Teriyaki and just as cloying), Kewpie Mayo with a fast and furious shake of Furikake and Bonito Flakes, elevating a hint of Unami to a fork full of fish guts. Did I make these sound attractive enough for you? O. B. is well intentioned but needs to rethink the Fry recipes. Ah, but you came for the Burger. The heavily touted Burger and there are 5 to choose from. The Topa Topa Burger was a Wagyu Beef Patty, but hold on there Tomodachi, we'll revisit this shortly. The meat has a healthy (?) squeeze of Topa Topa which I thought were Maori Warrior undies. Don't bother asking how I know what they taste like. The Sauce was a syrupy wannabe Teriyaki. There is an unspiced Avocado fan. Add to that a scant demitasse spoon of Kewpie Mayo, mixed with shredded Cabbage that brings little to the party save for G. I. regularity. Then there is a tangle of Fried Onion Strings in homage to Hackney's of Chicago. The Onion Strings were crispy and should've been offered on the side before the steam from the meat wilted the crunch. The top half of the Brioche Bun was naked, a blank canvas. Your choice of Yellow Mustard. Tear open the packet that refused to yield and watch it ejaculate all over your date's Sweat Shirt or enjoy a similar fate wrenching open the Ketchup packet which ends up with you looking like you spent an afternoon with OJ. Maybe lay out some interesting condiments in pump jars. The Buns were good. They were, but if just go for the Buns take a Spin Class instead. Wagyu Beef is a Kobe cousin and here it was cooked to death. Wagyu should be fatty and glistening when served. The Patty was as dry as the Bun. Fat is flavor and there wasn't much of either. The Patty was merely along for the ride to keep the Bun and Onion Strings company. There was a pay off, though. The free Pickle Spear. It was Pickle perfection and the best I've had in memory. It would be at home in any pickle barrel on Ludlow St. in NYC. I suggest you ask for your free Pickle and then grill a burger at home. The Ube Shake the wash down the sandwiches was just slightly thinned out mashed Purple Potatoes with a fat straw. You'll need water, lot's of it. Having beaten the Burger to a pulp, let's move on the Fried Chicken Sandwich. After two bites I was ready to move on quickly to anything else anywhere else. There are 6 styles of Karaage (Japanese Fried Chicken) if the specter of the Burger choices leaves you as cold as your Fries. I ordered a Spicy Ojai Chicken Sandwich which comes topped with Kewpie Mayo, Ojai Spicy Sauce which is interchangeable with Topa Topa Sauce. There is a mystery House Spice Blend which the charming happy Hostee had no idea what the blend contained and finally there was that ubiquitous pile of Shredded Cabbage. Sound familiar? The Chicken Thigh was as big as a size 13 Nike Kyrie and the batter coating was as tough as an old boxing glove. This required a Leatherman Multi-tool to rip it away from the dry chicken lurking inside. I couldn't and wouldn't finish it. But...it does come with a free pickle. I boxed up the other half (without the pickle) and laid it gently on the blanket of a homeless dude sawing logs on the grass in front of the City Council Bldg. Both of us are probably not sure if I did him a favor. All things considered, for my $50, both sandwiches were flirting with being dreadful. Perhaps this review will prompt the owners to rethink what they are doing. In the meanwhile for me, it's Ojai, bye bye. read more

2.5 hour wait and I'm dead! This better be worth ...3 hours later, yeah it was worth it. I as sad they ran out of ube shake, but the matcha shake didn't disappoint. The owners were cool, even to speak to us about their new restaurant. Yes, I'm planning ti go back. And please get the OG chicken sandwich. That saved this place. read more

I was looking for a quick bite to eat and decided to stop by since I was in the area and the reviews/photos looked good. It's a Japanese cushion spot. Inside does have some places to sit, but it is in the downtown area so the space is small. I ordered the Topa Topa burger which was so delicious! I was sad that the burger by itself was $15 after tax. Seems like a lot of places now aren't giving fries with burgers like they used to, you have to buy everything separate which really adds up, probably would've been $25-30 if I got a full meal JUST for myself...a side of just salted fries was an extra $5, I didn't even bother looking at the drink prices. In that same breath, I'm happier giving money to "stand-alone/mom & pop" places than chain food places. I did want to try the Wagu Fries but was informed they had run out of the shredded/chopped waygu unfortunately. The service was pretty quick considering it was made-to-order and the guy taking my order was nice. Someone was picking up his son from work there and said the smash burger was good. He also mentioned the place usually had a line out the door, but I was glad I came at an off time so I didn't have to wait (no one else was in the restaurant). read more

Visiting from out of town and was looking for a new burger place during my stay in Anaheim. I do visit a few times a year and I've tried quite a few in and out of the area. I have to say that Ojai is one of the best in the area. The burgers with their fusion ingredients, including Teriyaki, are out of this world. In speaking with the staff, I learned that the beef is sourced from Snake River Farms. That's a huge plus from me as I often buy their meat products in my home state. The burger/bun ratio is spot on, and the brioche holds up so well. I love the min-shreds of lettuce, and the cooked egg on top of the OG burger from Ojai, was just perfect, with the yolk spilling over when I pressed the top bun on. The fries are the shoestring type I prefer, crispy on the outside and soft in the middle...and nice and hot, fresh out of the fryer. They have a selection of sauces to choose from and the staff was kind enough to let me try all of them. I was also given some tasters of the local beers they have on tap. Staff was amazing, willing to make this out-of-towner super happy. I will be back to try more of the menu, which looks to be a well-thought out smorgasboard of umami greatness. I cannot wait to go back! read more

I love a good burger and this one didn't do it for me. Maybe it was the combination of the sauce and the egg yolk that didn't go well together. My son and I had one to share and we couldn't finish it. The flavors of the meat, sauce, egg and bun didn't compliment each other. read more

Delicious! The meat was so juicy and flavorful, the sauce adds a lot but doesn't overwhelm the burger, and the egg was done perfectly. We also liked the choice of buns. I got the spicy miso while my partner got the Ojai wagyu and I loved both. Way better than Umami Burger. The mochi waffles were really good too. Nice dense and cakey texture. We tried both ube and matcha (not pictured) and both were yummy. The matcha is a legit bitter matcha flavor, which I like, but others might not. The owner told us we can also mix and match the mochi waffles and drizzles. My only complaint here is that it tastes like they used the Butterfly brand ube flavoring for the drizzle (possibly also the waffle?), which has a bitter and artificial aftertaste that is very noticeable in the drizzle. But next time I might just order the ube waffle with a different syrup. Parking is street parking but there's also a public parking lot in the area, not sure if it's free though. Would come back to try their karaage and croquettes, as well as other burgers and sandwiches. read more

I've seen Ojai Burger before when scouting out restaurants in the Ventura area but I didn't have the opportunity to try it. My wife saw that they opened a location in Orange and we happened to be in the area, so we wanted to give it a try. The store is located near old town and had street parking only. The store itself had about 4 tables inside, 2 of which seated 8, 1 seating 4, 1 seating 2 and 6 tables outside in the patio, with 2 seats each. They have 1 public bathroom. The door was kept wide open and it was 99 degrees outside, so it was fairly warm inside. There were also flies everywhere flying around the table, plus a few annoying mosquitos. The workers were friendly but the food took a while to come out. When it did come out, the presentation was acceptable. The fried chicken sandwich was crispy delicious thigh meat battered with tempura. It was placed on a lightly toasted bun with cabbage and had a "spicy sauce" (not) on it. I give them points for uniqueness. The spicy miso burger had an decent tasting miso sauce, which was not spicy at all. The patty was cooked well done without any kind of sear on it and it had barely any beef flavor. The tiny patty was topped with a slightly overcooked sunny side up egg and was placed on a bed of cabbage. The bun was barely toasted. The burger was ok overall but could use some more flavor and textures. My wife did enjoy the pickle though. Overall, it sounded pretty unique and had some decent flavor, but for 12-14 bucks per burger, there was a lot left to be desired. read more

I went for the Ojai Burger, Okonomi fries (fries sold separately) and ube shake. The wagyu patty melts in your mouth and was delish! The Okonomi fries were alright. The sauce was good but I think I like the fries by themself. The Ube shake did not disappoint! The employees here were amazing! read more

Ojai is a new burger shop in Old Towne Orange and wow is it amazing! They have phenomenal burgers and shakes. I've gone twice since their soft opening and I've been impressed every single time I've gone! Their unique take on burgers with Asian flavors and wagyu beef help escalate their food to the next level! The menu has a good amount of variety to choose from and they also will carry alcohol in the future. The prices are reflective of the quality of the food that you get here and you are getting your money's worth when you drop by. I got the Spicy Miso Burger and the Ojai Wagyu Burger and both were delicious. The eggs were cooked perfectly and as soon as you bite in, you get the runny yolk and with the delicious wagyu beef patties, you get an explosion of umami! The buns are nicely toasted and I love that they use ingredients like kewpie mayo and shredded cabbage which help combat the richness of the meat. These are some of the best burgers that I've ever had! I've ordered the Spicy Miso fries as well and I loved how generous they are with the toppings and portions! Crispy fries topped with their special sauce and spice blends make for a great side to your burger. I would for sure order these again! The ube milkshake is also one of the best milkshakes I've had. You get a good balance of ube flavor mixed with Thrifty ice cream for the base from when I saw them making it. It wasn't too runny and they definitely give you a good amount of toppings when you pay for it as well. Service here has been great and I wanted to shoutout the GM, Pat, for being very kind and helpful with any questions I had regarding the menu and on feedback for the food as they make adjustments for the future. This restaurant is a great addition to Old Towne Orange and I can't wait to come back in the future to try more delicious burgers! read more

Confused by all the amazing reviews... my burger was dry and lacking aioli, or some type of sauce as I ordered a smash burger. I also opted to try their Ojai chicken sandwich. As I bit into it, I was surprised to see dark meat and it also seemed a little uncooked. I really wanted to like this place but perhaps I just ordered the wrong items. read more

Found this little unique burger spot while shopping at the Historic Orange District. We were happy that they had outside seating since we had our pup with us, and yes, the patio is dog friendly. Which is a huge bonus for us. First, we learned quickly that the servings are generous and we definitely ordered too much food. One order of fries can definitely be shared amongst s table. That being said, we ordered the spicy chicken sandwich, chicken katsu salad, Ojai burger, and fries. Overall we thought the food was okay- not my favorite chicken sandwich, but that is totally based on preference. The food was fresh, had a lot of flavor and was presented well. The staff were friendly and attentive and it was definitely a place to check out if you like Wagyu burgers. read more

When we tried hamburger for our first time, we like so much & promised we would come back. The second time the hamburger & chicken katsu were as good as before. However, after eating. I used the bathroom & realized they actually don't cleaned as often as needed. I am disappointed with the bathroom conditions. They should have a crew clean bathroom at the end of the day. I don't feel comfortable to eat there anymore. read more

I loved my spicy chicken sandwich!! It was simple but the flavors were perfect. The okonomi fries were on point as well. I love the taste of Japanese mayo with okonomiyaki sauce on top of crispy fries. Took 20 min to get our food so that was a little frustrating since it didn't seem that busy when we came at 3pm on a Saturday afternoon...but the food definitely came out fresh. This was a redeeming visit for my boyfriend because he has visited once before and although the topo topo chicken sandwich seemed good, he felt like it was missing some flavor...which is why he tried a chief peak burger today instead. Parking here is tricky since it's a busy area with only street parking. read more

Oh man I loved everything here on the menu! I highly recommend any of the shakes - I got the Ube and I'm just craving it by thinking about it! We thought some of the burgers were a little dry so maybe some more sauce would do it justice. All of our food did take about 10 min which wasn't terrible. We also thought that the place was well kept, clean, and easy to navigate when it comes to water cups, utensils, and napkins. Would come back again for their fries alone! read more

Have seen this place in the circle and have been wanting to try, my fear is always pricing but i gave it a try. Price aside, the burger is good, the meat patty is obviously tender and softer than a normal burger and is very good. I have the mushroom one and is was very good , we also had the ojai burger with the fried egg and that too was good. Service was great, the front counter guy was friendly and attentive to our order, and have good suggestions. The place inside is kind of small, but there is a lot of seating outside as well. Price point for me is a little high, especially for the size of the burger and if you want to go double , you can but be prepared to pay over 20 bucks. I wanted to give it a try, and did but i don't think for the price, it justifies a return visit, i honestly would spend less and get more from omegas. read more

Ojai Burger - Wagyu Fries - Burgers Near Me - Orange, California

Although burgers made with Wagyu beef are the main feature, of all the items I've tried that has to be the weakest offering Ojai has. Don't get me wrong, it offered a unique experience that is worth trying for many. Personally, the patty felt a bit too sweet for my preference regardless of what accompanied the burger. I think the main draw actually comes from the chicken dishes, especially in the Karage fries. Few places can have fried chicken that tastes too dry, or goes overboard and leaves a mouthful of oil in your mouth afterwards. If you're still curious what the burgers taste like, my recommendation is to go splitsies with somebody and order a chicken burger as well. Yet to try all their waffles, but with their burgers and sandwiches being so rich that'll probably have to wait. read more

I wish there were negative stars we could give on here. This place was the worst! I got a burger, you couldn't even see the meat, it look like the meat from a McDonald's kids cheeseburger put into a giant bun. And I got fries and a drink. The drink was a flat Pepsi, I took the Pepsi back and it was still flat we they gave me another so I asked for my money back on the soda. I actually should have asked for all my money back!! Now I know why it's always empty there when I walk by. I can totally see this place closing down soon and wouldn't wonder why. Oh and their phone number doesn't work when you call.

Inconsistent cooking. I had a smash burger and fries for lunch which was good. I came back later that same day to get crispy chicken bites to go and the chicken was so burnt. I didn't notice till I got home and couldn't eat it as it tasted too burnt. Maybe there was a shift change as the cashier was a different person so I'm guessing different cook too. read more

Ojai Burger - Crispy chicken bites - Burgers Near Me - Orange, California

Man, Old Town is cracking these days - there are SO many new restaurants that it's hard to keep track. I came here on a Friday night and was slightly overwhelmed at the sheer amount of people in the general area, however, I was quite thankful that Ojai Burger was a nice option for dinner. The burgers at Ojai Burger are my not usual fare, however, I appreciated the deviation from the norm. Lots of their burgers are Japanese inspired so they threw in lots Japanesey influenced touches - a lot of sweet and savory notes. My friend and I shared the following: -fries ($4.00): thin cut and generous in proportions -Ojai Wagyu burger ($12.50): Wagyu beef patty, Ojai classic sauce, fried egg, Kewpie mayo, shredded cabbage served on a brioche bun -Chief Peak Burger ($13.95): Wagyu beef patty, Ojai demi-glace sauce, sautéed onions and mushrooms, Kewpie mayo, shredded cabbage on a brioche bun Delicious burgers - however, everything was slightly more sweet than anticipated. Both the slaw and sauces were of the sweet sort. Definitely worth trying if you're looking for a new burger rendition. I also felt like the burger patty/slaw/bun ratio could have used a little work - there was a lot of slaw and bun vs. patty. *Side note: they share an outdoor patio with Wahoo's which conveniently sells beer! Order a burger and order a beer next door - highly recommend for a Friday night dinner. read more

Food: Delicious fusion Japanese burger with many options. My husband went for the double-menchi katsu (deep-fried minced beef patties, shreddedncabbage) and that was super delicious. I also love mine which was Ojai burger (sun-side up egg with meat patty and shredded cabbage). The meat was tender and moist. The egg is a total cherry on top. YUMMM! Kid's burger (basic cheese & beef burger and a side of fries) lacks luster though as the meat seems to be less quality, dried, and a bit burnt. They do take 10 mins more or less to arrive and they are nice, fresh and hot. Place: very cold as if the AC is set to 68F, Clean, small. There are: 1 regular height table booth seating inside, 1 window bar seating space and 2 long high tables that seat 6 each. There are some more seating outdoor but not a whole lot. The restroom was broken that day so the staff asked us to use their competitors' restrooms instead (__;) Parking: we got lucky that we found a spot right in front but other than that, patrons probably have to drive around to look for a parking spot. This place is right at the circle so lots of traffic. Service: not much to note here as they take orders at counter, bring the food and that's it. Customers clean up after themselves at the end. read more

Delicious food. We had smash burgers, topa topa fries and oreo shake. So yummy. Great service. Cool little place to eat.

We came on a Thursday and surprised that it was still popping, just a tad bit difficult to find parking but it wasn't impossible. The employees were quick to help us and give us suggestions. We ordered the Ojai Wagyu Burger, Spicy Miso Burger, Ojai Chicken Sandwich, Spicy Miso Fries, and Ube Shake. The chicken sandwich was cooked really well and it was my favorite but compared to the beef burgers, didn't pack as much flavor (which is what I wanted). The wagyu burger was slightly sweet and the spicy miso was more savory. I think the spicy miso tasted the best! Fries were solid and the ube shake was really really good. I wish I got the shake for myself and not to share. Plenty of outdoor seating, good for both small and big groups. I would want to come back again to try the other burgers! read more

3.5. Large portion. Burger is pretty sweet. Also hard to keep together and a mess to eat.

How this place has 4.5 stars still baffles me. My Ojai chicken sandwich was chicken jerky. My wife's wagyu beef bowl came with just beef and rice And for 17 bucks you would think it would be good. Nope. Over cooked and dry. The first time we came here it was flawless but this low standard of food just reminds me that some people eat Kellogg for breakfast and others have eggs Benedict but both say they are so good. I guess to each their own but we won't be coming back here ever again. read more
