Little Sama Ojai — Restaurant in Ojai

This was such a spectacular place to eat! I had the Wagyu Cheese Burger. This this was so well put together. The burger was juicy and has so much umami. The toppings had a slight sweetness from the caramelized onions that helped balance out the richness of the patty.

We had several other dishes that were just as yummy like the Okonomiyaki Tater Tots and Crispy Brussel Sprouts. The house sauces that they use for each dish really sets them apart from every other Asian Fusion restaurant. You won't go wrong selecting any dish.

Needed Sriracha as well. Not edible. Super disappointed & ridiculously expensive for...

Five stars for the food, the atmosphere and friendly service. The food is incredible! The Cauliflower appetizer and glazed eggs in the Dunburi bowls are in the category of one bite and in total bliss-I may ask for a side of those eggs next time! I had previously shared a concern on a review about the lack of seating for elderly/disabled persons only to learn that Little Sama does not own the common eating space but will try to address it. That works for me, not their fault. Hopefully they'll be able to rectify with the owners and until then, my 80+ year old Mom (local), and my close friend with Spinal Atrophy will hope the lower table is free, or take out & bring to my mom's. Either way, this is an amazing place to eat, have a beer, etc. It makes for a...
