Review summary

AI-generated from verified diner reviews
District offers a convenient pre-theater dining experience with standout service and a varied menu. Guests praised the "excellent service" and "delicious food," particularly the risotto and seafood dishes. While some found the decor bland, many appreciate its proximity to Playhouse Square and reliable performance for a quick meal before shows.

    Excellant food. Amazing seafood selection with nicely paired sides. Service was fast and pleasant. Cocktails were imaginative and tasty. Very convenient for Playhouse Square.

    We had never been to the District and decided to try it out after an event at the Playhouse Square. The event ran late so we missed our time but were greet but a friendly host who provided us with a great table and view. Elizabeth provided us great service and recommendations. We had the fresh hot bread with several butters and olive oil, the Vegan Mushroom Soup, the Crab & Jalapeño Arancini, Duck Confit entree and the Pan Seared Black Cod - all delicious. The cocktails were excellent as well. We look forward to our next visit!

    We went here after a show and were pleasantly surprised by the experience. I had not heard of the restaurant prior, but it was a top-notch experience. The food was very good, featuring risotto widely, and it was clear that the team there knew how to make a mean risotto. The service was excellent, with special effort to find a dish to suit my seven year old. The only mark off I have is that they were out of pasta, but overall it was a lovely experience

    Good pre-theatre dinner. Prompt service. Nice menu and prices are fair. Decor seems bland but carpets keep background noise to a minimum. A nice place to meet and visit before walking to theatres

    The atmosphere and closeness to the theater was wonderful. The salmon was very dry and the lobster tail was rubbery and way over cooked. So both people actually threw them out. The filet was cooked well so that was good.

    We went on an off Friday night because there were no shows playing in the area. It was a quick walk from the Q and the food was great! The bread was phenomenal and service was fantastic.

    All four of us went to dinner before seeing a show at Playhouse Square. The service was top shelf and the food was excellent. We were eating off each other’s plate because it ALL looked so good. 😊 our waitress was beyond impressive; in fact the whole staff was in excellent form. This is our 8th or 10th visit this year and they never disappoint. Bravo 👏!

    High Price - Low Quality. We felt like we were dining in the lobby of a run-down mall.
