We caught up with Lindsay to talk about one of her favorite bottle selections behind the bar. 🍷

A little bit about what makes it special, why she loves it, and why you might want to try it next time you’re at Down Island.

The wedge salad that makes you forget you ordered a salad. Fresh, crunchy, salty, a little sweet, and loaded with all the good stuff. Every bite has a little bit of everything, just how we like it at Down Island.

German Nights are coming to Down Island this October

Every Tuesday beginning October 6th, we’re serving up a three-course German-inspired dinner for $65. Start with German-inspired charcuterie + amuse, then dig into Schnitzel or Rouladen, alternating weekly, served with sweet & sour cabbage and Spaetzle. And of course, something sweet to finish.

Each Tuesday has its own OpenTable reservation, so pick your night and grab your table! Reservations are recommend!
Come hungry. Prost! 🍻

Not to be dramatic but this might be one of our favorite toasts yet.

Grilled sourdough with melty Taleggio cheese, salty prosciutto, black mission figs and grapes roasted with rosemary and thyme. Then we finish it off with arugula, toasted pepitas and a drizzle of local honey.

Sweet, salty, cheesy, a little crunchy and just really really great.
