The Lindsay Lodge & Restaurant

We were a party of three, dining at The Lindsay to celebrate my wife's birthday, We called in advance to let the restaurant know that she is vegan, and the chef, John, made her a special vegan curry dish, and she absolutely loved it. A second diner had the arugula salad and angel hair pasta with prawns, and she raved about both (saying she had never had prawns that were cooked so perfectly). I had the Gochujang Fried Chicken appetizer, and I don't think I've ever had tastier chicken wings in my life. We ended up with another order of those to take home. I also had the charred Casesar salad and the Lindsay burger (made with organic, grass-fed beef from nearby Plaisance Ranch), and they were both wonderful. Nothing on the menu seemed prosaic. There were so many choices that looked tempting, things I look forward to trying when we return.

With delicious cocktails, great wines, and outstanding service (Katie was our server), this was a memorable dining experience. We highly recommend dining at The Lindsay!

The Lindsay is amazing! The outdoor restaurant deck overlooks the beautiful Applegate River...so relaxing! I have been to Sunday Brunch several times, and enjoyed the delicious BLT Eggs Benedict, and the juicy Lindsay Burger, made with locally sourced beef. The accompanying fries are tasty and unique! The wait staff were pleasant and attentive.
The lodge is a beautiful log cabin style boutique hotel overlooking the river.
Highly recommended!

We just loved dining here. The food was excellent, and the wait staff were friendly and attentive. Finally, this place is living up to its full potential. There isn't a more beautiful location to be found in the Applegate Valley. Although we just came for brunch, we toured inside the lodge itself. It's very clean and cozy, and they now offer wine tasting packages. With 18 wineries so close, it's the perfect central location for a beautiful weekend getaway. The Lindsay is definitely at the top of our list for a delightful getaway or an unforgettable meal.

My husband & I love to explore lodges. This quaint lodge has an outstanding restaurant, too! We had a delectable meal with desert with cocktails. We started with the arugula salad with walnuts & beets which was perfect. So many times I have ordered this elsewhere & it was cold from the refridgerator. I had prawns with linguini & artichoke hearts. My husband very much enjoyed his flat iron steak prepared rare. We type of by sharing the NY style cheesecake with lemon curd. Sooooo good! I am a margarita lover, too. Their spicey version was outstanding! You must go & experience it!

My wife and I stayed there in one of the rooms on the bottom floor. It was absolutely beautiful. The rooms were very luxurious and clean. The food was excellent and they were great hosts.

Update: This is the half year anniversary of our wedding. As Oldyweds, it was a treat to come back in the late winter. What a great location! Minutes from some of the best wineries in the Applegate, this is the perfect spot for exploring the beauty of the Applegate valley. The river was running clear and quiet, the rooms are incredibly quiet as well. We stayed in the same room as last time, the Honeymoon/Vineyard. Right on the river. Once again the restaurant was superb-we had the salmon (my wife said the best she ever had) and I had a hamburger with fries on the first night. Both so good-the attention to detail and the care of the servers was fabulous. The next night we split the steak-divine. The wine list is the most local I've yet to come across-all of them from the Applegate AVA. The Lindsay Lodge and restaurant are wonderful. The lodge is full of beautiful wood and the rooms are spacious and right on the Applegate River. We stayed in the honeymoon room (Vineyard) which was not only the cleanest hotel room I've been in for ages, but the room was huge and the bathroom was also big. The rooms don't have TV which we saw as a bonus.
The restaurant is superb! We ate there twice and had lovely seating next to the river. The food was very, very good as well. We will be back to stay next year on our anniversary and we will head back to the restaurant regularly.
This is a beautiful getaway an hour from home but seemingly far from home. Give this a try for a quick getaway!
Anna, the owner, does it all with style and grace. We felt like honored guests. We can't wait to return!

Awesome brunch! The dishes were kind of an upgrade to the old menu with healthy doses of class and quality. The steak and eggs I had were tender and perfectly seasoned. My better half had the fried green tomato Benedict and I didn't even get a bite of it. Next time... My only criticism would be that the portions are almost too small. The setting along the river, however, is perfect. Jill, our server, was friendly and fun. The Lindsay IS your reason to visit Applegate.

Beyond words, the Lindsay Lodge is a magnificent place. Truly a place of splendor. I've lived in the valley for over 20 yrs, never having the pleasure of experiencing until last night.
The food was incredibly delicious, I chose the salmon and couscous. It was Devine. My boyfriend and I stayed in the room called the logger. Elegant, that's all I can say. The room was open, had a balcony to enjoy the view of the river. Continuing inside, climbing up the stairs to the loft and greeted with a cozy bed . The room has a full size bathroom with hot tub.
Outside, on the side of the parking, there is a beautiful area designed for any venue, weddings, parties, reunions, any occasion.
Definitely a place that would be a shame to miss out on. Worth every sec, the best memorable moment I've encountered.

The Lindsay Lodge restaurant is a welcome addition to Southern Oregon's culinary scene. We had dinner on their deck overlooking the Applegate River and it was simply stunning. They source locally for their menu and you can tell. Everything was fresh and delicious. They offer a full bar and are family friendly with great service.

We look forward to our next dinner there.

Update 5/24/23
We had the MOST wonderful wedding here on May 6th. My husband and I cannot say enough about how Anna and her team graciously hosted us and worked hard to make sure everything was perfect. The lodge was the most magical and beautiful setting and Anna was so accommodating with everything we wanted to do! Our families traveling from out of town were all very comfortable and Lindsey Lodge even hosted a fabulous rehearsal dinner for us. We felt welcomed and right at home and the little touches from Anna's team made our day feel like one-of-a-kind. Thank you Lindsey Lodge for memories that will last forever.

Delicious brunch on the riverside deck! The food tasted like something you'd find in Napa or some other shi-shi location. The BLT Benedict with fried green tomato was excellent. My sister and her husband raved about the avocado toast and steak and eggs. It was a wonderful experience and I can't wait to visit again!

We have been so impressed by our experience at the Lindsay Lodge and Restaurant. They have a beautiful location on the river and everything we have tried has been amazing! Their food is delicious- the Bavette, Bucatini, New York, Linguini - all amazing. They also have a skilled bartender who makes good cocktails and they have a great local wine selection. It can be difficult to find a restaurant with good food AND good drinks for date night so we are happy we found the Lindsay Lodge. This place is definitely worth the short drive out of town.

My partner and I celebrated our 4th anniversary here and it did not disappoint! I had the linguine and he had the salmon dish along with banana pudding as our dessert. Everything was spectacular to say the least. The atmosphere was cozy and elegant. We will definitely be returning soon.

Simply magical! We didn't stay at the lodge just had dinner. Food was great atmosphere phenomenal. Trees were changing color..river flowing !

Looking forward to date nights at the Lindsay! This venue was previously known as the Applegate Lodge, however it is under new ownership and is back on the map! An amazing venue paired with the most creative, talented chef, I can't say enough great things about both the Lindsay Lodge as an event venue, as well as a lodging and restaurant location.

Centrally located in the Applegate Valley, The Lindsay Lodge Restaurant provided an upscale meal with a great view of the river. The duck confit special was spectacular, a 4 day preparation. Mike, one of the owners, chatted with us and was very engaging. We look forward to another dinner there soon.

Good location(close to my house), beautiful outdoor dining and cocktails!
Our waitress was charming and efficient.
We will go back.

The food and cocktails were delicious! Locally sourced and freshly prepared. It’s so nice to have a GOOD restaurant out here! And the staff are lovely too.

Was the best steak I have had in a long time. The staff was awesome and the owners came out to visit. Well worth the drive to applegate for dinner. The atmosphere was excellent the food was amazing.

Highly recommended!
If you have not been here you have to check it out! Incredible food! The staff are all great people. It’s just all around a great place. The new owners have done great things.
