Ca Marco Ristorante Italiano in Ojai

Visited this restaurant on my recent Ojai trip. The place is clean and quick service (not so busy). The menu had good amount of choices, server was helpful in making recommendations. I order fettuccine with tomato sauce, the ingredients were fresh, pasta was perfectly done. I had to add a bit of salt and I thought overall it lacked yummines for an Italian restaurant, food isnt bad but just lacked to impress.I will try this restaurant again with another item from the menu.

Love this place! We try to come for lunch when its not crowded, and it is just wonderful! The house-made ravioli are amazing especially.

Nice atmosphere, good service and good food. I ordered the special, strawberry salad and it was fresh and delicious with a nice combination of elements; and not overly dressed. Their vegetable pizza utilizes vegetables not commonly seen on pizza. It was very delicious, light and fresh. Not huge, but a good wine selection. Overall a very enjoyable dinner. The outdoor seating allows well behaved pets.

Very enjoyable food, service was excellent. A bit geriatric (Im 50 and was the youngest person there) but thats not a negative 😅. Plenty of parking, we got a table right away, prices were reasonable.

Amazing Italian food… Aroma and flavor of their bread was good. No wait time. They were organized and seated our group immediately. Not enough vegetarian choices. I would love them to create vegetarian version of their famous favorite home made lasagna. Which is big hit and in our group for the first timers to the place and seasonal returns.

So incredibly disappointed with this restaurant and the treatment we received!Both my friend and I ordered the crab & lobster ravioli special with the expectation of being wowd, only to find sharp shell remnants in the raviolis first in my friends serving, which they replaced, but then also in my raviolis as well.This of course caused great concern, and sent my plate back as well, ordering something completely different, as my friends 2nd plate ALSO had shell remnants.Were not talking small grainy pieces, but large slivers if shell. Clearly a chocking hazard!Our server brought the owner of the establishment to our table who began counting the number of raviolis that we tried to eat before presenting a menu so that I could choose a different dish.We made it through our meal and even decided to order dessert.When the check arrived we were absolutely floored to see that we were being charged for both ravioli dishes AND my replacement meal!When confronting the owner about the charges, her reply was that because each of us ate 3 of the 7 raviolis on our first dishes before returning them (which all contained the shell shards) and they replaced my friends dish, they would be charging for both!Of course this absolutely infuriated me expressing that I would have at the very least expected her to only charge half for my plate considering we both could very well have choked or been injured by the shell slivers. (being a Medic, I have seen such things happen frequently)But she continued to argue the fact that the raviolis were expensive to make so she has to charge. Finally she agreed to a discount because she needed the table and would bring the check to our us.Our discount offered.....15% off my returned plate! I was livid, and made my feelings known right in front of the rest of her packed dining room!This prompted her to grab the check and tell us to not pay for anything if we wanted, just leave.Feeling incredibly bad for the only gracious person there, our server, we left her a very healthy tip and left.Needless to say, this establishment will NEVER see a penny of neither my, nor my friends, our any of our collective friends money.To have such disregard for your customers safety is absolutely disgusting!

Ca Marco Ristorante did an amazing job attending to the needs of our party of 12 who were celebrating my daughters birthday. I had the Ca Marco Salad, which I thoroughly enjoyed, and for the entree I ordered the cappellini and requested to substitute the sauce with creamy pesto sauce over their homemade pasta. It was so yummy! I absolutely recommend this restaurant while you are in Ojai, California!

Reserved a table online. Drove up from the city and was greeted right away. Very Impressed with the food and service. Highly recommend will rebook again!!

Great place for freshness!

Amazing service! The butternut squash ravioli was out of this world! Creamy, light and full of flavor. Pictured is the Dulce de Leche cheesecake and creme Brule that was phenomenal! Highly recommend for food, service and ambience.
