The District is a regular go-to for us for steaks and a nice night out. Start upstairs in the lounge, check for the times of the live background music, have a few drinks before your reservation. The dining experience is very nice, and the food is really well done. Everything is great - you can't go wrong (unless of course you order your steak well done! 😂) Our service has always been top notch - they work to make your experience the best. Lots of gluten-free options if that's something you look for.

The food and service was subpar,. Me and my wife got the two person steak meal. The steak was prepared correctly but not seasoned, The asparagus was under cooked and the mash potatoes tasted like they were boxed. The crab cake was ok but too spicy and the lobster bisque was spicy for no reason. I was so excited to eat here and I just feel let down. We reserved a table and still had to wait in a somewhat empty restaurant because we were early. The bartender was pleasant and the drinks were ok. It just didnt feel like fine dining the restaurant was very bright and music maybe?

We were celebrating a promotion and new job with a group of our friends. The ambiance was exceptional, the service was amazing as well BUT unfortunately the most expensive cut of meat, the Tomahawk steak - was not properly prepared because the aftermath was not ideal. My husband immediately started having stomach pains and we were hoping it would pass but instead, it intensified. We had to cut our night short and got the check and said our goodbyes to our friends.
Once we got home, my husband headed straight to the bathroom and everything he ate came back up. :( it was a horrific scene and I felt terrible for him because he was suffering from what appeared to be food poisoning which was accompanied by projectile vomiting and dry heaving. All I can say is that we spent over $200 dollars on our meals and my husband’s steak alone was at least $130 dollars and only to be completely thrown up.
While the ambiance and the service that we received were excellent, unfortunately the price of a good steak turned into an expensive case of food poisoning and discomfort. I urge the necessity to ensure that the meat is good and didn't go bad due to contamination. This was our first and last visit. We appreciate the outstanding customer service but ideal food handling and preparation is a must as we have never had this type of experience with the same type of cut in other steak houses.

Food was surprisingly not good, mediocre at best, mostly flavorless or else way over-salted — every course, including soup and various steaks and whipped / fingerling potatoes . Some of the veggies tasted too charred to eat, you could not even taste the supposed seasonings. Steak medallions had tons of fat globules throughout. Wagu was amazingly flavorless. The appetizer salad was the best dish of any of our meals. Dessert was full of obviously artificial food dyes, which we didn’t expect at a fine dining. Good service, but we will not be back, especially for the price, there are several much tastier options in town.
