A little bit about us!

               Hello and welcome to Osteria Monte Grappa. We would like to introduce ourselves and share with you what makes “OMG” so unique...

     We opened our doors in October of 2009, when we moved our, then young, family to Ojai from Santa Barbara. We have been so fortunate to maintain a friendly local staff throughout the years. We have watched kids grow into adults and adults grow into families.

     Our roots come from Northern Veneto, at the foothills of the Dolomites. This is where we get our inspiration to create an ever-changing menu, using what is growing seasonally in our area.

    We have adapted our menu to use products grown locally in the beautiful Ojai Valley! This is why we do not necessarily identify with “Italian Cusine,” as much as our vision of “Ojai Cusine.”

      You may visit at different times of the year to find a new and varied menu from the last time you were here. We are in daily contact with local farmers like Robert “BD” Dautch & Johnny Fonteyn that grow our produce, and local fishermen like Eric Hodge & others out of  our central and south coast harbors. We hand pick all of our products ranging from Mary’s chicken and duck from the central valley, Jolly Oyster provides us with responsibly farmed Baja California clams and oysters. We pair these ingredients with some of our favorite imported products and our house made pasta and sauces

     It is our mission to create an approachable, unique and healthy environment for you to come and enjoy. Welcome again to Osteria Monte Grappa!
