Hip Vegan in Ojai

I was pleasantly surprised. My wife and I couldnt believe how good their specials were. Ashram lunch was as close to home food (Im from India) as Ive had outside of Indian restaurants. I had the canteen bowl which had the dal vada which was also ridiculously close to home. Its a bit pricey but I think its worth it.

I found the restaurant through a locals recommendation and ordered his favorite dish, The Tiger Bowl. Amazing tasty, fresh, and the right size for my hunger. Look at the attached picture.

Great atmosphere and great food. Ordered the tiger bowl and it tasted really good. Looking at other items that came out from the kitchen, I don’t think you could make a bad decision here. Highly recommend if you’re in Ojai and want some great vegan food.

For all you non vegans, myself included, this place is incredible. I know when I think of a vegan restaurant I usually think dry and bland. This place is the absolute opposite. So flavorful and cooked perfectly. I got the bahn mi and my sister their crispy tofu sandwich. Everything was incredible plus the staff were so friendly and helpful

Delicious veggie spot and beautiful shaded garden. Highly recommend the Wagamama bowl and Strawberry + Lime Fizzy.

Looking for a healthy, tasty vegetarian place this is the place to go! The staff is friendly and fun! Great menu options and they even have wine!

Best vegan food Ive had in a long while. Like most vegan restaurants they kind of meander all over the culinary map. But these folks get it right! From their spicy fries to their health conscious Ashram Bowl, its a symphony for the senses. A must for ANY vegan in So-Cal.

We stumbled upon this fantastic healthy restaurant today! Clean and airy with air conditioning inside! This is not a full service restaurant, but rather a restaurant where you select your food and drink at the counter, pay and find a table. There are several tables inside, but we chose to sit outside in the patio.My husband is not a fan of vegetables or healthy stuff, but enjoyed his Baguette and Gunpowder fries which comes with their homemade curry ketchup and a tasty mustard! He said his baguette was flavorful and spicy good! The fries were spicy and the dipping sauces devine, although the fries are stand alone tasty. He said he would come back to Hip Vegan again!I ordered the Wagamama Bowl which was heavenly to my tummy! I love all the Asian flavors in this bowl. The portion size of this bowl is generous and I could of had it all, but decided to pace myself and take some home for dinner later tonight. I definitely recommend the wagamama bowl!I also ordered one of the seasonal fruit sodas. I chose the watermelon lime juice mixed with soda. My husband had a beer on tap.After finishing our meal, we bussed our plates and trash. Inside there is a station to get your own metal utensils and glassware for water, along with paper napkins.Hip Vegan is truly a pleasant restaurant for yummy food and drink!

Very tasty vegan food of multicultural origin. Everything seemed very fresh and well prepared. My Japanese inspired “Wagamama” bowl was delicious and featured a variety of vegetables, tofu, and brown rice with subtle dressing. The spicy noodle bowl was a special and was really good if a little too rich. The side of gunpowder fries came with two dipping sauces and were very good. The coffee cake was fresh and delicious. I would definitely like to come again and try some of their other offerings.

A great experience overall! Had some fantastic spring rolls and an epic salad. The tap list was a winner and the staff were great too. Cant wait to go back again next time I am in Ojai.
