About Zoey's

We had a dream…  to own a lovely café in downtown Ventura.  Then in 2006 we came across Zoey’s!  A romantic European style café located in the historic El Jardin courtyard circa 1926.

Taking over Zoey’s café we were also blessed with an extra added bonus – an amazing music venue. A true listening room.  A haven for singer/songwriters and the audiences that appreciate wonderful talent. 

With the help of family and friends we’ve not only been able to continue the Zoey’s tradition of “nourishing the senses through food and the arts…” but we have grown and flourished. 

Zoey’s has been voted the best live music venue in Ventura County for the last two years.  We’ve even been featured in Sunset Magazine.  We continue to showcase fine up and coming musicians from all over the country and even from our own backyard.

Check out our casual yet distinctive menu.  We also offer a fine selection of wines and imported beer along with expresso drinks.

Zoey's is a family owned restaurant that treats every customer like a guest in their home.  We know you have several choices of restaurants to dine in the downtown area.  We thank you for choosing Zoey’s!  So please sit back and relax in our vine covered patio, inside our charming café or up in our Entertainment Loft.  We hope to make your time with us enjoyable.
