    District Bistro was terrific - menu was very good, good wine and excellent service. I ordered the short ribs which were served over polenta. So so good and my friend ordered chicken marsala and she really loved it. Both dishes were presented beautifully. Highly recommend!

    Firstly, for a modern bistro the noise level was quite low. This is helped by the absence of music playing in the background. The food was delicious and the service was friendly and efficient. If you are looking for a delicious meal served in a leisurely manner, this is the place.

    This was such an unexpected win for us. We usually have to travel to Pike and Rose for fine dining options near us. The restaurant is beautiful and the service was amazing. Family-friendly.

    As always the wait staff and the food were excellent. However, they were out of most beers listed. This was on a Saturday night. Some of us had already planned our meals around their offerings.
