River Islands at Lathrop President Susan Dell’Osso is shown outside the tunnel entrance to the cellar for the Redwood Café that is now under construction. The cellar is in an area excavated from the 300-foot wide levee that will have dirt repacked against its walls as work progresses.
It’s safe to say it will be the only restaurant in California “inside” a levee. But that’s not the only thing that will help make Redwood Café 2.0 arguably the most unique restaurant in the Northern San Joaquin Valley when it opens next year.
