Pinyon Ojai

My wife and I came here for a date night while vacationing in Ojai. THIS RESTAURANT IS PAIRED WITH RESY for all the AMEX card holders out there. The menu changes from week to week as it is freshly sourced ingredients. The service was excellent. Everyone was extremely helpful and informative. They sit you down at a table and give you a menu, and oddly, you have to go up in order, but that isn’t really take away from anything. The entire restaurant is open concept inside as well, so you can see the oven and the people making the pizza pretty much right in front of you. They had a bit of outdoor seating as well. The appetizer we received was the fire roasted bread with the fancy sauce. That was excellent. Probably the best thing of the night. Next we got the pizzas. My wife has that sort of v

Pinyon is a must-go for you next trip to Ojai! The staff there are very kind and laid back, and really know the menu well. We got two pizzas, the giant beans and the broccolini. If you go, GET THE BROCCOLINI! It’s finely cut with small pieces of date and some Calabrian chile, which makes for a super interesting veggie order. They also gave us a free sesame baguette on the way out - these people know their bread!

Went here for Valentine’s Day dinner with my husband. Everything was amazing. Fantastic service, delicious food, good ambiance. They were very accommodating for allergies. I would definitely dine here again.

Yes the pictures show already finished plates however that just shows that it was good food. We ordered the chicory caesar salad, hearth bread, porco rosso and pinyon pizza. It all came out moderately timed. The porco rosso pizza was the star of the meal. They do carry Dr. Browns natural soda which pairs really well. Service was moderate compared to other customers who received their orders sooner than us and were sat about half an hour after we were.

A nice spot for a casual meal of salad and pizza. The salad dressing was unique and really tasty, while the pizza itself wasn’t particularly special but had a wholesome, healthy flavor. They don’t serve soda, so I tried the kombucha instead, which is locally made in Ojai—and it was surprisingly delicious. The atmosphere inside really captures the local Ojai vibe. If you plan to visit, make sure to check out the restroom—it’s definitely worth a stop!
