The Downtowner - Stockton

Came here while I was given a 1 hour 30 minute break for jury duty and I am so happy I found this gem! The staff was super friendly and kind. They pointed out all the vegan options to me and I ordered the portobello tacos which comes with a side. I chose a salad and the entire meal was Updated from previous review on 2021-08-31

Found these guys on Google Map and they where awesome the choices of plant-based food was awesome I wish I could’ve ordered all of them and I believe it’s called a vegan burrito it was a killer good replace everyone’s friendly. And they make their own sauce Will be back!

I’m on my vegan journey and I found this place online and decided to try it based on reviews. The service and food were really good. I got the mushroom tacos and a veggie wrap with vegan cream cheese (it’s off menu but they’ll still make it if you ask nicely). They have several vegan options and of course regular options. I will definitely be going here again.

By far, this is THE BEST place to eat. The ahi sliders are amazing, garlic and truffle fries are awesome. The service is A , I can't say enough good things about this. EAT HERE NEXT!!!

Top notch, boys and girls. Whether you 're herbivorous or omnivorous, Downtowner 's got something unique and delicious for you. I 'm not vegan or anything, and I don 't just say to establish my credibility as a restaurant reviewer but also to praise Downtowner 's vegan menu, which had meals tantalizing enough to win over a couple carnists like me and my father. To my surprise, he ordered vegan nachos made with 'cashew queso ' and even claimed he liked them. I went for a spicy Thai grilled 'cheese ' that had veggie spring rolls cooked right in between the grilled 'bread. ' Real weird stuff, but I like to experiment, our lovely waitress recommended it, and in the end I was satisfied. I do regret choosing that over the Seared Ahi Sliders, though, which my brother ordered, looked absolutely amazing. Mom had a 50/50 burger and said it was outstanding as well. I 'd also like to say that the fries were top quality, no sog, everything you want in a fry. I ordered an Icelandic white ale, too, which came in a viking glass and was so exquisite that I learned something new about myself: me love white ales. Even Downtowner 's water was especially good, self-serve and naturally essenced with your choice of cucumber or lemon-lime. I also appreciated the varied music they played, which included some punk. As for the art on the walls: picturesque nature scenes, nicely subverting your expectations of city skylines. And the service was killer, too. Our server was kind, patient, witty, helpful, and very easy on the eyes—everything you want in a waitress! Another guy, possibly the chef, came out and checked on us once, too, but neither one was overbearing or anything. We were only passing through Stockton, but from what I saw The Downtowner may well be the best part of this city. Top notch, boys and girls.
