A bakery by day and a Burmese restaurant by night, The Dutchess occupies a charming old building in the center of Ojai without taking itself too seriously. The menu runs through snacks, curries, and sharing plates, and the tea leaf salad alone explains why the Los Angeles Times put it on their list of California's 101 best restaurants. Save room for dessert, because the pastry side of this operation clearly hasn't clocked out.

Michelin Guide -
Chickpea tofu

Michelin Guide -
Chocolate-caramel ganache tart
“The contemporary, rustic dishes are bested by the skillfully prepared desserts, like a decadent chocolate-caramel ganache tart.”
