The Garden Terrace is the best kept secret in Ojai! Beautiful ambiance and great little gift shop.

The Garden Terrace is the best place to host a food and wine dinner. They have a great banquet room where the Ojai Valley Wine and Food Society hosts several dinners each year. The food is always excellent and the service superb. We always look forward to Chef Cluche's creations.

Wow, what a delicious dinner! The preparation of my plate was like a delicious art piece. Ahi plate "it'll melt in your mouth."

We come to Ojai every year to discover a new hike. And every year we actually consider trying a new restaurant, but we always end up returning to the Garden Terrace. There is no better way to put a cap on a great day than a meal in our favorite spot on the patio. On occasion we have found a hike that is only so so, but the Garden Terrace has proven not to miss!!
