The food here is exceptional and the service is superb. Attentive without hovering and everyone who works here is so welcoming and friendly - always with smiles on their faces. The ambience is clean and quaint with assorted pictures of local favorite Johnny Cash on the walls. I honestly question the 2 disatisfied reviews regarding customer service or the food being bland but, as you'll see from the overwhelming majority of reviews, this simply isn't the case :) Prices are beyond reasonable (especially for this area). My personal favorite are the Lemon Ricotta pancakes - so delicious! read more

I had a ride to take some hschool kids up to "the camp". I do this every year and I've seen this cafe place but as time would have it I didn't stop for a neal. Today was different...and on the way home I stopped. Now it was later in the morning but I had breakfast on my mind. Once inside I saw the counter and there I sat. Coffee arrived a moment later and I was reading the menu. Simple and to the point, the carne asada omelet that sounds good, no potatoes fresh fruit please. It wasn't long and my breakfast arrived. Nothing fancy here Omelet and a bowl of fruit. The Omelet looked small at first but once I realized the amount of carne asada and I was sold. This bad boy was full of it asada that is and the best mix of different fruit I've seen in a long time My choice of bread was a biscuit with a dab of gravy. Gravy tasted like dry mix with a little help from the cook, good but not to memorable on parker house roll size and was "with" so..no complaint. I gobbled the breakfast and swore I'd stop in on my run to pick up the kids. We'll see. Needless to say this is a no nonsense cafe. This is a no fluff diner, the interior is quite stark, blank but I wasn't here for frills or the romance. The delicious carne asada Omelet made my stop worthwhile and certainly worthy of four star Later Foodguy-Martin read more

Noe’s Cafe - Cafes Near Me - Oak View, California

I stopped at the market almost across the street. They recommended this place. I'm glad we stopped by. The service was excellent. Everyone was super friendly. My waffles were so good. Thin and airy. Coffee was good. The price was also nice. I was headed to Ojai and Santa Barbara. I know if I had stopped at any of those places I would've paid double. read more

Noe’s Cafe - Berry waffles. Perfect for 4th of July - Cafes Near Me - Oak View, California

Very clean, friendly service and delicious food. I will definitely return to this restaurant.

I am a DoorDash Food Photographer, so you can imagine I get to sample a lot of dishes from a variety of restaurants. Noe's has 2 locations, one on Anapamu in Santa Barbara and one one the main road through Oak View, CA. I have only been to the Oak View one so far. This is a great little place that reminds me of local places in the 70's. Boths, tables and counter. The interior has a lot of memorbelia about Johnny Cash who used to live in Oak View. I love Johnny, so it took me back to my teens. The restaurant is very clean and the staff is great. It's a very informal place, so very comfortable. The best thing though is the food! Hats off to the cooks and managers for developing the menu. One of my favorite dishes was the blackened salmon, wow! it was some of the best I've ever had and the amazing rice on the side was a flavor I'd never tasted. It was delicious. They have a large menu with a lot of your favorite choices. Luckily it's not far from my house so I'll be back just as a regular customer. Do yourself a favor if you're in Santa Barbara or Oak View on the wy to Lake Casitas and stop by Noe's, you'll thank me read more

I see most positive reviews are breakfast. I ordered tri tip sandwich. Meat dry and hardly editable. Coleslaw was warm. Not an overall good experience considering the high price. read more

Happy to have a classic style diner in Oak View. Very clean. Love the Johnny Cash theme as he's a big part of our area. The staff were excellent. The owners were present which is always a plus. I always had a full cup of coffee because the staff were so attentive. What I ordered was different than what I expected, it was more of a stewed steak and eggs meal. The meal was actually better than what I thought I was getting. I always ask for well done hash browns, they nailed it. The biscuit that came with it was huge and fluffy. This restaurant is a California throwback to simpler times, great staff who are friendly and where you can expect a diner style setting and solid meal. Great stop for after a walk, run, bike ride. You get a lot of food for your money. Very happy we have this restaurant in Oak View! read more

To be in the Ojai Valley and not use local eggs and produce makes no sense. The food is bland and lacks seasoning, my eggs were neon yellow and not farm fresh, potatoes undercooked, biscuit undercooked, coffee was hot flavored water. Owner was lovely but the food was just a miss. If you want overpriced, bad diner food this is the spot. read more

Service great; better yest foor is yummy and satisfying. A terrific local cafe. I hope it stays here for years!

The food is great here, but the customer service is horrible. They never say thank you. That's the main reason for this review. I paid with the credit card over the phone. They didn't answer the phone professionally like, Noes café. How could I help you? When I called back and informed the lady didn't ask who was gonna pick up my order and how much the total price was she made it seem like I was inconveniencing her for informing her about that information. Also, when she hung up, she didn't say bye. She just hung up the phone. read more

Terrible customer service rude and unfriendly. Food is great they just need better employees

It's been some time that I have been there. Thought I'd stop in and say me and my girlfriend had a great enjoyable breakfast. Fast ordering and fast delivery. Great coffee. Their breakfast burritos and pancakes were amazing. We shared two plates and it was more than enough. The burritos came with great salsa and pancakes came with great syrup and lots of butter and jelly packs. Great biscuits and gravy. Down to earth and down home cooking. Highly recommend for breakfast. Clean environment was a plus. read more

We must have gone on an off day as our experience was nothing spectacular at all. Service was good. Food was ok for all 3 of us. Prices are high. See menu from others post reviews. Almost $10 for a bowl of oatmeal. Place is much cleaner than other owners restaurant. But still same look in there. I gave 3 stars as it's ok. read more

Wow! What an unexpected gem in Oak View! We stopped in for breakfast on a Saturday around 8am and it quickly got busy as we left. Super friendly staff, very clean inside but yet it still has that old school diner feel. And the food is delicious! We ordered the ABC omelet and the lemon pancakes, both of which were so so good! Skip Ojai and come here for breakfast instead! read more

Not open after 2:30 pm. The cheeseburger was good, but a little messy. Iced tea and Arnold Palmer were ample.

As a former midwestern farm girl, I'm always looking for biscuits and gravy that reminds me of home. I'm usually terribly disappointed, but I can honestly say that Noe's biscuits and gravy are the best I've ever had in a restaurant. It's a cute little cafe where the service was amazing and the food came to my table piping hot. I'll be back for sure!!! read more

Loved this local diner, opened just 6 months now. We had an amazing cheeseburger and onion rings, it was perfect! Noe Jr., the new owner, and our server Alex, were incredible and extremely accommodating to my mom in a walker. Food was delicious, service great - amazing homemade Thousand Island dressing. Lots of parking, great variety of menu items, it's our new favorite breakfast/lunch spot. They treated both my mom and I like family. Such an enjoyable meal, great energy and good vibe. It'a a gem! read more

One of the best little breakfast spots around. Good food, friendly service, and a cozy local diner feel. Always a solid choice.

We stopped last week for lunch. Our first visit with new name and owner. I ordered the Monte Cristo Sandwich, something I rarely find outside of Solvang. It was outstanding and large enough to take half home for dinner. My friend had the Cobb Salad and loved it. Everything coming out of that kitchen looked fantastic. I can't wait to go back for the fish tacos or fish and chips... so nice to have a good restaurant in our little town. read more

It's a rainy Wednesday afternoon. Almost time to pick up kids at school. I am hungry for good food in a comfy atmosphere. And I saw Noe's Cafe is OPENED Such a great location and popular. Went in, seated right away. Their entire staff works together, such a refreshing work ethic. Anyway the BLT and onion rings were superb. I ate half before I thought to take pic. En read more

I can't say enough how impressed I am with this place in so many ways. To start the food is delicious and very well priced. I ordered a tuna melt and it came out quickly and very hot. The service was wonderful and the ambiance is so cozy and inviting. Tons of Johnny Cash pictures on the walls tie in with the town. Lastly the owner is delightful and really gets to know and connect with his customers. I will be back for sure! 20/10 read more

Good food, good service, good attitude, there for breakfast. Entire menu looks great

We're in town to spend Christmas with family and Noe's Cafe was recommended by the clerk at our hotel as having good food. He told us he eats there frequently and enjoys the food and the service. After our lunch we heartily agree. My wife ordered a salad and the seasonal vegetable side, while I had the classic cheeseburger. Both had fresh and colorful produce, were served at the proper temperature by friendly and accommodating staff, and the cheeseburger was cooked to order. At one point Noe, the owmer, visited the customers at their tables to check that everything was satisfactory. He spent a few minutes with us and shared that the cafe had opened about 10 months previously and they had been very successful. He also mentioned he would be expanding the menu in the new year. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the food. We strongly recommend the cafe to anyone who is in the area. read more

Great food, great service! I enjoyed the local touch of the Johnny Cash photos on the wall. The avocado bacon, cheese omelet, and veggie omelet were more than I could eat, so I had some leftovers. If you are vegan, don't shy away! Noe said they are open to vegan options! I suggested some veggie breakfast burritos, regular veggie burritos, or veggie tacos. Hopefully, they will put them on the permanent menu. read more

We live right down the street and after so many good reviews we went there for breakfast today. It was a GREAT breakfast. Service was just as good as the breakfast and ambiance was 50ish with a couple photos of the areas famous singer Johnny Cash. The owner helped out and very nice. Sooooo nice to have a great cafe in Oak View, CA. I had the Monte Cristo (Amazing) and my husband had the breakfast burrito, which he loved. A must stop for breakfast or lunch on you way to or from Ojai. read more

The service was genuinely the best service I'd ever received in my life!! Both of our servers were the sweetest, made wonderful conversation and genuinely made our day! They were also so attentive! The food was also so yummy, I got a steak omelette and the entire thing was gone in maybe 7 minutes. I also got the beignets which were the bomb!!!!!! Highly recommend. The atmosphere is so wonderful and the vibes were comforting! This experience made my month, it was the best time I've ever had in a restaurant! read more
