The 50/50 burger is a must try for anyone who loves a great burger! 1/4 pound of bacon, 1/4 pound of grass-fed beef grounded to make one beautiful and great tasting patty. The brioche bun and all the fixings compliment this burger very well.

Really great variety of vegetarian and vegan options in addition to meats. Good prices too!

This is my spot. They have something for everyone. I have certain allergies that makes eating out difficult and this place provides options for even the most difficult foodies like me! I can not get enough of their vegan Portobello tacos with garlic fries. Its a fresh place with very fresh food created with love. All the staff is amazing and I have never once been disappointed with the food or service.

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.

My all time favorite! Been coming here a couple times a week for almost a year.

Was very impressed with the food. Came here after searching for a random spot to eat since I'm not familiar with the area and am glad I chose to come here. The ambience is a bit strange but I did like the art on the walls. Food was made quickly and was cooked as requested. Good place for a quick lunch.

Great atmosphere, the place feels a little punk rock while also giving off vibes of you favorite aunts kitchen . Service was spot on. Friendly, casual, informative. The food was well executed and delicious. We spent the majority of our conversation discussing the portobello sandwich and the garlic fries. This place treats the garlic well and shows on these two dishes. The Cobb salad was a nice well proportioned dish with a medium dressing that works well with the standard Cobb ingredients. Highly recommend this spot.

Love the food, service, and server experience. These folks are great. Get the truffle fries if you've never had and enjoy savory flavors. Awesome spot.

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!!!

As I entered the Downtowner, I found it bright, clean, very friendly and inviting. I enjoyed sitting at the counter. It's design made the area fun and engaging with other patrons. I really enjoyed my pastomi hash skillet..it was extremely tasty. It was very hot so give it a minute to stir and enjoy. I'm so glad there is a place to go downtown. The owner Kevin was great to talk to. The menu was extensive, something for everyone. I can't wait to go back.
Aaron MacDonald
Food is good and prices are reasonable. Customer service is friendly but it is kind of slow. If you only have a 30 minute lunch I would recommend calling your order in ahead of time.
H Brown
Great food with great service. Always one or two vegan options and they are very helpful toward vegan friendly options.
Alicia Valenzuela
This a wonderful open place with great art on the walls inside. The owner Kevin is such a nice person and Amy is funny and provided genuine quality service. Food was delicious so definitely coming back. Try the detox smoothie. Best green smoothie I have ever had so far.

I’m putting 5 stars because the service was lovely and the menu looks great. However, Please put seasoning in the vegan dishes, we can handle it I promise. Im so thankful for vegan options I just wish there was flavor. I will definitely be back to try again!!!

The Downtowner here as a fun, good-mood-food place to eat is a real pleasure. Stockton gets a tough rap sometimes, but there are a lot of quite good restaurants dedicated to serving up fresh food with local ingredients. This is one of them. The owner, Kevin Gillman, is an Oregonian transplant and certified sommelier. He's got a great kitchen staff and team. Every day brings new specials. if you're in town, this is a real treat.
Orlando Molina
Always new specials and definitely one of the best burgers in Stockton. Thin fries rule. Too many carbs? They have veggie sticks and side salads.

There are popular dishes and its not cheap. But food quality is great always seems fresh. There was problem with my pre order which I got store credit for and I am not disappointed in quality or taste of food. Great friendly staff.

Manuel Hernandez (Personal)
First time there today. Absolutely LOVED the food. Had a green smoothie with tons of antioxidants, and shared a burger (which was not greasy and cooked just right), three Portobello tacos, a salad and truffle fries. They were all to die for! And the attention was outstanding too!
Grayson
Nice place to go get lunch. They give a good amount of food. I like the Cobb salad they really load it up. They also have giant cookies if you want to bring some back for others. Staff are friendly and quick. I have been a few times and good service each time.
Elizabeth Turner
