Potatoes were not mashed all the way through tiny piece of chicken, it was an online order, but they were friendly with the door, but definitely not worth the price

Very cute neighborhood restaurant with an extensive menu. There's something for everyone. The drinks are truly outstanding as they use very fresh ingredients, and everything is juiced in-house. Good food and great service!

What Happened??? We have visited District 118 numerous times in the past couple of years, and the place has always been packed, with great food and excellent service. Last night (Sun 4/28/2024), however, it was as if we were in an episode of Restaurant Impossible: the place was nearly empty, our waitress was sweet but seemed hapless and completely untrained, and the food ranged from mediocre to lousy. The extra-dry martini tasted like it was half vermouth, featured olives with pits, and we were charged $3.00 extra for a “dirty” martini. The fish tacos were so drenched in sauce that my wife couldn't eat them. My fish and chips and sweet potato fries were over-fried. The $37 Scallops Elote were ok, but came with just 4 relatively small scallops. We are still shaking our heads wondering what happened...?

My friend had the salmon burger and really liked it. I ordered the Cajun chicken and brie sandwich. My chicken was a little too well done. However our server was excellent and the ambience is great. I probably just wouldn't get a chicken sandwich again, but I would go there again.

Our waitress came over to us immediately to introduce herself to us and ask if we wanted water. Our meal was excellent! My only complaint was that District 118 doesn't offer bread and butter up front to customers. In my opinion, I would have appreciated more bread and butter when we initially sat down and then and perhaps a smaller entreè dish. We ended up taking home a large amount of our meal.

Great fun drinking and dining spot! Terrific ambiance, great appetizers and main courses, and, of course, awesome wine, beer and mixed drinks!

My friends and I enjoyed it here, but when we made the reservation for 7:30 PM on a Sunday, we didn't know the kitchen closes at 8 PM, so we felt rushed to order and it was just strange. I wish someone had called and told us 7:30 PM wasn't possible with the kitchen closing at 8 PM, push our reservation earlier. Other than that, the food and ambiance were good.

We were disappointed in the service. I feel badly about it as we did not tip well. But no one checked on us when we got our food, and I was done eating before my friend got anyone to address her needs (which prevented her from eating most of her meal). We also asked for a refill on the ice tea, and he refilled using the same glasses, and then wasn't sure he had given us back our original glass. When we asked him about it, he did not seem at all aware that this was not acceptable. I am sorry that we did not tip well, but we just couldn't given our experience.

We went to District 118 for a large birthday celebration. They were able to handle the crowd with no Issues. Food was delicious, waitresses always had a smile. Excellent food and quality of service. Will go there again for sure.

Server accommodated last minute change in number of people in our party and was very attentive and helpful. Food and drink were delicious. When full, it's a high-decibel dining experience but very comfortable.
Over priced and not that good. Went on Sunday night of a long weekend and it was empty. Server did not know what a Shirley temple was and misheard our kids ordering a grilled cheese from the kids menu as their short rib grilled cheese. Bravarian pretezels were obviously frozen pretzel rods you can buy at the grocery store and were served with mysterious sugary dips. My husband's cocktail was $2 more expensive on the second round. Overall overpriced and mediocre.

Good food, nice atmosphere and we did not feel rushed. Cocktails were good too. Only issue was zucchini chips were not all that tasty and had very little dipping sauce. We asked for more and it never came, but otherwise service was good.

Really unfortunate experience yesterday. Had to send back the zucchini chips, they were fried in dirty oil and tasted awful. The district salad was very over dressed, added the salmon which was cooked well and was the only thing I ate. Served never even asked how the meal was after it was delivered and I ate only a few bites of the salad - would have sent that back too if I was given the opportunity. Very disappointed all 3 times I've been to this place

Good food i liked lamb shank which is tasty service need more attention but nothing important missed. Ambiance and crowd is good but it is loudy a bit. I will try weekdays for less crowd. Zuccini chips and tuna must try ...
