If your looking for some really amazing Lebanese food served to you by a super friendly owner then head on down to The Lebanese oven in Ventura. This hidden gem is located in a shopping plaza with ample parking. The Baklawa (dessert) is to die for and the food is so delicious that my mouth is watering just thinking of it.

We LOVE The Lebanese Oven. I eat vegetarian and gluten-free so I always get the falafel plate with the hummus and Lebanese salad. My husband eats everything and has loved all the dishes he’s had here, but his favorites are the shawarma and the shojuq. He says the pita chips are the best too. It’s so much food - and so much garlic - but it’s absolutely delicious.

Unbelievably delicious! Something so different about this place. The food I noticed in presentation and absolutely the taste was like a family style energy feeling. This is the place to come to and dine in. I wish my family mom and brothers and sisters were here. They would absolutely fall in love with the Thoom which what my gf and I love to order every time we eat this type of delicacy but this thoom was a mix of potatoes like mashed potatoes but thoom. That super lemon like garlic flavor in a paste was even more decadent and tasty as hell with it's specialty! Love The Lebanese Oven! This is my new place. Healthy and good energy food here. SARAVA! ?

Amazing authentic Lebanese food, full of flavors. Absolutely delicious!!! The tabbouleh is the best than anywhere else. Chef Kazini treats his customers as guests. Go to this hidden jem when in Ventura, CA.

Absolutely delicious, with a huge like for the tarzaa and the baba ganoush (but I didn’t try anything else). Extremely sympathetic, I wish I lived closer from the restaurant but unfortunately it’s a few hours of driving. I highly recommend this place.

It might not look like it from the setting of the restaurant but this is a 10/10 place. Great customer service, fresh food

Fabulous food. Much more refined tastes than other similar restaurants. The garlic paste is good. The owner makes you feel like a guest at his home.

Had the chicken shawarma plate, tasted amazing, garlic paste was also phenomenal. The owner is really nice too

I highly highly recommend this place!! The owner/chef is beyond amazing. He made us feel like we were family. The food... Outstanding!!! We will be going back a lot!! Thank you Mike for everything! Best falafel I've ever had!!

Highly recommend stopping by the Lebanese Oven for lunch or dinner. Mike is the absolute nicest, I came in looking for a large amount of hummus and he was so accommodating and the hummus is delicious and a beautiful texture! This one of our favorite places to get takeout to bring to visiting family and friends!
