Let's start with fabulous smoked old fashion for the hubby and passion fruit mojito. The cheese curds are HUGE (and delicious) with Cajun ranch. I had the poke tuna nachos appetizer as my meal and it was literally one of the best things I've ever eaten. Hubby had the Bayou pasta and it was very rich and he loved it. Other couple enjoyed Pig Mac burger and loved it as well. Try it, you won't be disappointed. read more

Great experience! From the outdoor seating upstairs, to good food and great service, it was a warm afternoon, but the huge fans took the edge off! Burgers, wings and Ruebens were all good and the homemade chips were tasty! I hope in the future they can get tables that are a little larger as a four top high top was small with all the food and drinks. Will be back though! read more

I love this place! Not to be dramatic, but this place could be on a list for Best Bar in America. Great food, but not pretentious. Perfectly done pan pizza. Wings cooked to perfection. Incredible grits. Standard drinks and a really well done drink menu, most of which can be done mocktail style as well. I'm cheering for this place to win a bunch of awards. They will. read more

For Fathers Day, I was taken to District Bar & Kitchen in downtown Ocala for their brunch service. We walked in promptly at 11 am when they opened and were immediately seated downstairs (inside), passing on the upstairs (outside). Cody, our server, promptly took our drink order. Our first visit, and Cody did a phenomenal job taking us thru everything on the menu. He even circled back with a great Dad-joke. The salmon burger was delicious, the chicken B.L.A.T. was good, the Southern Comfort breakfast was great and Caesar salad was outstanding. The food came out very fast and perfectly prepared. The place filled up pretty fast, so getting there early is a good idea. read more

Michael was amazing! Best waiter I've had in years. Food was great. If you are in town, this is the place to go, stop looking on yelp for anywhere else. Just go here. read more

We sat at the bar. I asked for cherries in my Coke, didn't get. I ordered a District Burger ($20), that is supposed to have caramelized onions... it had 3 little slivers on a double cheeseburger. Not happy as a pile of caramelized onions is what I ordered that burger for! Disappointed. read more

Our server was very attentive and the pub food was good fare. Would gladly eat there again!

The service, food and atmosphere were great. The Detroit style pizza was so good. We stopped while traveling to southern Florida. Highly recommend. read more

Wanted to eat in Downtown Ocala and hadn't been here yet. We sat inside because it was a bit warm and humid on a Tuesday night in July. Promptly greeted and ordered drinks and an appetizer. Highly recommend the Reuben Egg Rolls my husband enjoyed his burger and my salmon was perfectly medium rare as requested. I wanted to love the brussel sprouts but they were SO salty, I just couldn't eat them. Did enjoy the grits. They make a good Old Fashioned too. I'll go back when it cools off and enjoy a meal upstairs outdoors. read more

5 Star all the way!! Food was phenomenal, the chicken and waffles was out of this world. Service was outstanding And the upstairs outdoor patio was refreshing, plenty of TVs, bar area and had live music. Will be back for sure!!! read more

Location and vibes were good but don't go if you expect good food and everything on the menu to be available. They ran out of steak on a Sunday by 4pm! Not too many options, more like bar food or sports bar vibes. The velvet cake drink was delicious tho! Service was ok. read more

Food was decent but I ordered for delivery and the fries were kind of soggy when I received it and I also asked for a buffalo sauce and left a voice mail and never received it . They never answer the phone either . Nor do they "call back" so don't even bother trying to call them for anything . read more

The food was delicious! I had the lunch pizza and salad special, and my guys had the District Burger special. So good! We sat up on the open air deck, and that was nice! read more

We have been so excited to try this place and decided to have hubster's birthday dinner here. They have not been officially open too long but everything on Yelp looked good. We arrived at 8pm and requested a table for 2 at the hostess stand. We were told it would be about a 5-10 minute wait so we sat. There was a lot of traffic going upstairs but we were unsure if there was a difference regarding where you sat. The hostess informed us the table was ready and had someone seat us with menus. Our server, Caitlyn (I think), greeted us with water within 5 minutes of being seated. We put in our drink order and reviewed the menu. Both my husband and I were interested in the District Burger so when our server asked what we would like, that is what we ordered. Soon after, another server brought our drinks over. For simple drinks, they were both very good. Our food was delivered about 10-15 minutes later. Caitlyn came by to check on us soon after our food arrived (I am big on timing with all those years in the industry lol) and I requested the District sauce, which she brought right over. OMFG!!!!!!! It went so well with the burger!! Even though the burger consists of 2 smash patties, they were much larger than other smash patties I have had elsewhere. Come 8:45pm, our server came by and dropped the check. Hubs and I were very confused because everywhere we looked, closing time was 10pm. The plan was to get another round of drinks and maybe a birthday dessert for hubs. The staff cleared out the place within 10 minutes. I was so disappointed because we thought we had more time. If the downstairs closed earlier than the upstairs, then the host should have informed us of that before having us wait for a table to be rushed in 35 minutes. The food was very good but maybe next time we order it to go. read more

Situated in a charming downtown area with beautiful architecture. Look forward to going back just to walk around and explore what the downtown Ocala district has to offer. We both ordered the DBK smashburgers. They were a little salty but everything was delicious and exactly as ordered. The staff was nice, attentive and accurate. They took our, somewhat customized, orders in stride and what we were brought correctly reflected what we wanted. The inside was small but uncluttered. They have an excellent flow throughout the whole place. Had an upstairs balcony that was hopping and outside street seating too. Would recommend and we look forward to going back. read more

Great restaurant I've been there twice already. My wife has been there three times. Tuna nachos are outstanding drink. Menu is great reasonably priced and the upstairs patio is an awesome place to people watch downtown. The only issue I had is that the service upstairs seems to be a little slower and maybe that's because of the dumb waiter that they have to use to bring the food upstairs But it's all good. That's the restaurant because I get it been there done that but we will definitely go back. read more

We went on burger Monday. Two smash patties with cheese on a soft bun. Served with skinny fries. Delish! On Mondays it is $7 off. Great sports bar atmosphere with a rooftop patio on the second floor. read more

Small pub with about a dozen tables inside and open air rooftop. Service was okay...nothing great or impressive. The food was meh...again nothing great or memorable. I had the district burger which was just like any other pub burger. My wife has the pizza which is not your typical pie. It is a big loaf of bread with sauce and cheese. Not a bad taste, but certainly not pizza if that was what you are thinking of. read more

What a great find! We sat upstairs with the kids, beautiful view of the holiday lights in town, great burgers and fantastic house-made chips. Perfect ending to a day spent outdoors as a family. read more

Nice and spacious second story patio. Wish it wasn't this humid, but lovely ambiance with live music. Service was fast and friendly. The food is delish. And love the variety. Had the salmon bagel with goat cheese instead of cream cheese. It was very good. My friend had the beet salad with goat cheese and thick chunks of bacon, also delicious. read more

Nice addition to the downtown Ocala scene. We stopped in for Brunch on a Sunday and sat on the upper deck area. Nice area with bar and on that day a musician playing some brunch type of songs. Both of use had their Bloody Mary that has a Guinness Stout floater. My wife opted for their burger while I had their version of a Cobb style salad. Both were presented nicely and were tasty. Recommend if you find your self in Ocala. read more

Nice restaurant with lots of outside seating. Upstairs is all open seating with a view of downtown. There is seating downstairs but the space is very small so not too many tables to sit inside if the weather is cold. The food was very good. We tried the Broadway Reuben and the Margherita Pizza. Service was good also. Big shout out to our server Jordyn, who was attentive and always friendly. She definitely made our meal even more enjoyable. read more

Amazing food and service! We were a party of 8. Everyone at the table loved their food and cocktails. The service was also outstanding.

Fun video on the rooftop bar overlooking historic downtown Ocala. Plenty of TV's for spotting your favorite sports game or news clip. Full Bar with fun and energetic folks. Ordered the Wedge salad with Flank Steak (pink). Fantastic salad, steak missed the temp mark and came out with no pink but was seasoned on point. Really enjoyed that they spread the dressing and blue cheese on the plate as opposed to over the top. This allows me to determine how much dressing I want in each bite. Meal prices vary. read more

Nice sports bar style restaurant and bar. The hamburger here is really good and if you catch it on the right night it's on special for $10. I caught it on special and it was excellent. They have a very large beer selection and nice big TVs to watch the game on. Everyone was satisfied with their food. And service was very attentive. I was in Ocala for some training and this was located. Smack downtown in a central location. Would recommend and would return. read more

love this place! Food and drinks are fabulous and the Atmosphere upstairs is beautiful at night. Great service!

We stopped in town on to look for some lunch/brunch and ended up in downtown Ocala. I think it's the first time either of us has been there before. Plenty of shops and restaurants. Being Sunday, not much was open besides most restaurants, so that worked out great. We couldn't really make up our minds, but we happened to walk past the district bar and it looked great. You can see the upstairs which is all open seating and looked like some live music. It was a beautiful day, not very hot, so that was great. We were seated upstairs, nice little view of downtown. It's very clean, plenty of tv's for football. The staff were all friendly and help. Everything looked great on the menu, looking around at the food coming out and people eating looked great as well. This time we both decided to just keep it simple and had the egg brunch. 2 eggs, cheese grits and bacon and toast. No real complaints, the grits were cheese-tastic, very good. My wife isn't really a fan of grits, but she kept sneaking bites of it. The bacon was great, we didn't try the million dollar bacon, but I'm familiar with the concept and was just looking for simple this time around. Overall, the place is great, very nice and relaxing. The guy playing guitar and singing was a nice topper. Great little addition to a relaxing Sunday. The food did take a little long, but I think we showed up right at the peak time and everyone was ordering at the same time. It is definitely on our list of places to stop in when we're in the area. I would definitely like to try some more stuff on the menu. read more

This might become my new place to eat when in Ocala. From the warm greeting to the live music and the delicious food. We hardly could walk to our cars. It was hard to pick out an entree everything sounded so good. In comes Brianna P she made some suggestions and we ended up having the Smoked Salmon Lox, The DBK burger, and the Chicken BLAT. It was all so good. The service was fabulous oh! The Mango Aperitif is a must. It's light and refreshing and goes down so smoothly. read more
