Fried rice with chicken
Hala Hana C.

I was on a business trip to Ojai and craving Asian flavors and ended up eating here once a day until I left--it was that good! Coming from LA, where I eat a lot of great Asian food, I wasn't expecting to be this blown away. The flavors were bold, the ingredients incredibly fresh, and the quality was top-notch. Every dish was perfectly balanced, full of depth, and made with care. If you love authentic, flavorful Asian cuisine, this place is an absolute must-try. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in Ojai! The garlic noodles, summer rolls, fried rice! Can't wait to try the pho

Kids portion fried rice
Adanari Z.

Overall rating: 3.5 stars We visited over Mother's Day weekend which also coincided with a heat wave so we were glad the restaurant wasn't too busy and had indoor seating options. I honestly really wanted to love this place but it was just okay. This is all based on personal preference on these dishes. The spicy garlic noodles and kid portion of the fried rice were both on the dry side. There was nothing spicy about the garlic noodles unfortunately. The only dish that genuinely got a "mmmm" from me were the spicy wontons. Again, not spicy at all but they were really flavorful. I ended up using some of that sauce on the garlic noodles to balance out some of the dryness from them. We also got the beef banh mi. We're spoiled to have grown up close to Little Saigon in SoCal and having amazing and authentic pork banh mi sandwiches so I feel it unfair to rate others we have. My husband said he would try the burger instead next time. The garlic green beans and cucumbers had a good crunch to them. I don't know which dish it was but something made my tongue slightly numb, like when you eat a lot of pineapple. Service was okay. Nothing stellar but I won't hold it against them given the unexpected heatwave. It was nice to see a consistent flow of patrons for both sit down and take out orders. The pho smelled good so I may go back to try that and other meals.

Crêpe with shrimp
Melissa G.

The service was fast and friendly. The house made fizzy drinks were delicious and the food was overall fantastic. We had the crepe with shrimp, summer rolls with shrimp, the cucumbers, pea greens and garlic noodles with chicken. The crepe and summer rolls were so delicious! The cucumbers were great and even better the next day for lunch after soaking overnight. The noodles were good- could've been a bit spicier and I would have liked some crunchy garlic chilly to add. The pea green were nice and tender. We will definitely be back!

Tofu and Mushroom Summer Rolls
Matt J.

Pretty much everything about Ojai Noodle House is an instant win. It's a comfortable space that is effortlessly inviting, especially the patio. The decor is thoughtfully considered but not fussy. The service is efficient and friendly. And the food has precise flavors that are powerful but light. Lots of veggie options on a well marked menu! The summer rolls were a strong mix of ingredients that paired well with a delicious dipping vinaigrette which is a solid departure from the typical peanut sauce. Overall it's a super welcome addition to the Ojai Valley dining scene that is a cut above other newcomers.

Spicy Ojai pixie
Jamie M.

I really liked this place! I split a cold noodle salad (dan?) with my dad. The raw vegetables were delicious and fresh, and since he wanted the mushroom and tofu option, they were fried and delicious with a meaty texture. I also tried a spicy Ojai pixie drink. The service was quick because we were one of the first people in there on a Sunday. The waiter/host was helpful in explaining the food and the restaurant setup. The inside of the restaurant was dark and old-style like a tavern with a huge bar, and the outside was a beautiful, comfortable patio. I'm excited we tried this restaurant and look forward to trying more food.

***** An exceptional lunch experience on a Sunday afternoon. Started with a bright, cheery, pleasant greeting by Izzy as we entered the warm comfortable space. Leonard, behind the bar, created a nice citrus cocktail* for my wife and provided tableside service. We enjoyed a sampling of entrees and appetizers...each prepared perfectly. We'll return soon. * non - alcohol cocktail Serving beer, wine and Sake on my right now

Pho
Verenice S.

I'm only giving this place a 3 star because of customer service and the ambiance. The food on the other hand, was just NOT it for me, the flavors and taste didn't marry well with my taste buds. I believed the Pho broth to be VERY greasy, usually when I ask for chili oil I get a crunch chili oil, in this place they are very literal lol its JUST oil which took me by surprise. Nevertheless the CS was phenomenal, the ambiance was quite nice, even though you could hear cars passing by and honking at each other every other second. I would love to comeback here but i highly doubt i will. I'm grateful to live FAR from this city cause the food around there is definitely made for locals only. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this or any restaurant in Ojai so far. The restaurants I've been to in that city always lack either flavor or CS, or in some cases Both. This place was a miss for me due to the food.

I got the pho beef sandwich on rye. There was only one customer before me so I was surprised to wait about 20 minutes for the sandwich. Inside seating is limited and it was noisy with the bar and music and people coming in to order at the counter. Much more spacious outdoor area. Unfortunately, the auto shop across the street was making a lot of banging noise. I moved inside to eat. My sandwich was tasty, however, the meat was unevenly heated with part of the meat actually cold. Since a small serving of broth came with it, I ended up dipping the sandwich meat in it to warm it up. The broth had a strong star anise taste. I am glad I ordered when I did because the place filled up with school kids it got really noisy and I bet the wait for ordering and getting food stretched to over 30 minutes at minimum for the newly arrived.

For a place with noodle in the name they sure have some work to do on their spicy noodle dish. Way overcooked. Spicy mush at a hefty price.

Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and honestly exceeded expectations. We ordered the gunpowder fries, tacos, and the tiger bowl - and the bowl was so good that I literally tried recreating it at home afterwards because I couldn't stop thinking about it.

Great mouth feel and the dipping sauces, chefs kiss. 2-Tempeh sandwich was not so tasty. Would not repurchase. Sorry no photo. 3-Tofu sandwich (photo included) had thee hardest bread ever. Just awful. Too hard. Was it stale? Not sure, but I cannot recommend this sandwich. The word slop comes to mind. Too much slaw sauce made it a slippery mess. See photos. See what was left behind and so many napkins used. Very poor construction. 4-An honorable mention was that the fries came out so long before the sandwiches, that they were all gone before the sandwiches for there. So much for timing. Unfortunately, I don't think the cashier/server was having a good day. I hope today is better for her! This visit was surprising bad.

Every single thing they serve is quality. The chef and founder's got a cool story -- you can look up a short doc on YouTube. It's Bermese food mixed with American. The Biryani, Crispy Rice Salad, Potatoes, Breakfast Plate, Granola, Congee, and Spicy Chicken & Waffle are all great. Ask if you can have a side of their chili oil -- I believe it's made in-house and they even sell it to take home. I would've gotten a bottle but they were sold out! Their cafe is also awesome. We got their chocolate chip cookie, croissant, danish (forgot which one), and sourdough and they were all good. Drip coffee is good + their caffeinated black tea (also forgot the name)! Lastly, the customer service was top notch. Your server will check up on you every 10ish mins or so. Always very accommodating and very friendly, too.

The pastries were really good, with a nice variety to choose from. The only thing that would have made them even better is if the savory pastries were heated. The coffee, however, took quite a while to arrive. We had already finished our pastries and our table was cleared before it finally came out. I went back to grab a few more pastries, and while I was away, a gnat flew into my coffee. I brought it back to the register, and they graciously replaced it without any issue. The second cup came out quickly and was noticeably hotter than the first. It seems like Saturdays can get pretty busy, so it might be a better experience to visit during the week if you can. There are several public parking lots nearby, along with street parking
