Ay Cafe Ohlone’s current iteration, ‘oṭṭoytak, reservations for public meals take the form of tickets, like those sold for a concert or sporting event. We offer one seating per meal; all meals are prix fixe. Parties of fewer than 4 people may be seated at a communal table. In 2025, ‘ottoytak is open for occassional lunches. The tickets go on sale mid-month for the next month. May tickets will go on sale on April 15.

In addition to public meals, we offer private lunches and education sessions. Private lunches are available for groups of up to 40; education sessions are designed for groups of up to 40 and are tailored to the group’s size and age. Please email us for information on private lunches and education sessions. If you’re interested in having us come to your organization for a session, or if you’re interested in having us consult your organization, email us.

‘oṭṭoytak is located outside the Hearst Museum of Anthropology on the UC Berkeley campus, at Bancroft on College Avenue — there is no street address. If you use a map app, search for Hearst Museum of Anthropology.
