Where do I start? There are no hours for this place it’s not 7-7. Each food stall opens and closes at their own times. Those hours are posted on the website but are completely inaccurate. Best bet is to go around 11 to 1. Online ordering - I wouldn’t do it because you won’t know if they’re actually open or not. And the menu is also not up to date. On the website all of those restaurants are no longer there except the Belgian waffle and enfes. However they have a Mexican place and a new pizza place yet that’s not on their website. If you go to district kitchen Instagram, last post is from 2020. Whoever is managing this place clearly doesn’t care how it does. Could have been cool such a shame!

The stores are rarely open, best bet if you want to actually buy something is 11:30am to 1pm on weekdays only.

Wish I knew of this place earlier when more of the stalls were open. Visited today and only two were in operation sadly. IMO marketing could have been improved as I moved to the area (Hoboken) in 2020 and only noticed/heard of this place a few months ago while walking by as a new Jersey City resident. The name of it also sounds like just a restaurant instead of a food hall so it could probably benefit from a rebrand. If you look at the successful ones in other cities, e.g Chelsea Market in the city, Quincy Market in Boston, Union Market in DC, Reading Terminal Market in Philly, Ponce City and Krog street Markets in Atlanta they all kept it simple with the name. Those also are thriving either because they are in a high density tourist area or because they have dedicated parking available. This place would have done much better with dedicated available parking so people would have seen it as a destination. That said I get that perhaps, this was meant as more of a food court geared to catering to office workers like the Hugh in the city but there aren't nearly enough of these workers in JC for that. Hope it survives though and perhaps it will rebound when more of the development happening brings either new neighborhood residents or visitors (Top Golf rumored to be coming).

This is an interesting atrium type place. There is a common area right in the middle and a lot of food stalls if you are hungry. The unfortunate thing was most were closed when we went. Not sure why it isn’t packed in here. The concept is excellent. I think its because parking is tough around here. Other than that it is awesome. Reminds of a smaller bell works type place.

The food is good. But it’s pretty pricey!

Peaceful, beautiful, with various options of dining and clean restrooms.

Tried this spot already with my friend and I am hooked ever since. I love the excellent character and flavorful dishes and drinks. 5 stars.

Harborside used to have a down to earth food court with reasonable lunch choices and prices. The District Kitchen is its dark and unwelcoming replacement. It looks like an unassuming hole in the wall from the outside, but the inside is actually quite cavernous and boasts a variety of somewhat exotic dining options. Think food truck food inside a building but twice the price. What's missing is simple, inexpensive food choices. We consider it a last resort lunch option when the weather is bad and you can't go somewhere else.
There are many lunch options. Today I chose the Left Bank Burger Bar. Had a great BBQ Pork sandwich with French fries. Highly recommend if your in the area.

Overpriced and underserved, mainly for the adobe of the Harborside financial center workers, a hotch potch array of food choices whatever people can pay max for !!! Imagine cable/dish TV with lots of channels, mostly of HSN, QVC, infomercials instead of HBO, CINEMAX & NPR channels.

Slightly overpriced, but overall good food! The place has a variety of foods such as burgers and sushi! Would come back again!
Delicious food, great service!

Variety of food in the same roof
