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

Very cool upstairs outdoor space - huge fans made it very comfortable even on a summer evening. The watermelon mule was delicious and the grouper taco appetizer was also very good. The bison goat cheese pizza was completely original and delicious! Great service too. read more

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

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

Upstairs bar with live music gets 5 stars. It's the absolute best! They did a great job. It's the most beautiful spot on a beautiful night. read more

Has to be one of the best restaurants in Ocala! Food is delicious! Every dish we've tried has been great. Some favs are poke nachos, beet Cobb salad and shrimp & grits. Fantastic drinks too! Good service and rooftop area is great with big fans and lively tunes. A must visit! read more

Great food! Cool spot! Good service! Almost went to Zaxbys while traveling through Ocala, Found the District on Yelp and ended up with a really good meal and excellent service! I was bummed that they were out of Ahi but I'll have to try it next time. The Mac and Cheese was very bland, everything else was excellent!! read more

Food was great, we ordered the district burger which did not disappoint! We also ordered the tots with fried chicken the tuna poke the burger came with Brussel sprouts for an up charge rather than fries. Do not miss the sprouts they are perfectly made not greasy or too saucy 10/10 recommend. Our drink were phenomenal! I ordered the old fashioned and my partner was pleased to find Blanton bourbon at the bar so she has a double pour with a gentleman's cube. Ambiance is fun and sporty they had live music playing on a Saturday morning brunch. Our bartender was great! She made the best suggestions and kept conversation at the right amount and place. read more

District burger is a must! Pizzas are also pretty good! Want some different style bar food? District is it.

Went for the Detroit style pizza because we really enjoyed the Margarita pizza the last time we went. However, this last time was not as good. The pizza looked fantastic but was cold. We also order 3 more pizza's to go, but when we got home and opened the pepperoni pizza it was very burnt. The other pepperoni pizza was not burnt as bad but definitely burnt. The third pizza was a margarita pizza. It was not as impressive as the one we shared at the restaurant. We had driven 20 miles to get these pizza's, Won't go back. read more

Recommend. Best food and good price. The second floor is fun, the first floor is a dump, live music, TV, lots of people on weekends, fun and delicious. read more

Great Atmosphere upstairs for liveliness or downstairs for quiet conversation. Luxury comfort food done well. Service was attentive but not obtrusive. DBK dip app was incredible with the Cuban bread. This place is a must stop in Ocala . read more

First, I'm coming to this establishment. The first floor is a very nice and classy but casual. Forst floor has a nice chill dining area with a outside area to enjoy the outside ambiance if wanted. To get to the second floor it's a stairwell or elevator to a second floor open concept terrace equipped with huge ceiling fans, table tops and a bar. The bar 4 has HUGE 80" tvs simultaneously playing all the games you want to watch. Not to mention the food menu amazing!!! Gotta give this place 5 stars let's gooo!!! read more

Foods is amazing but uber and Door dash haven't worked in a month or two . Called spoke

Went with a work group. Took a long time to get. When we did get, all burgers were over cooked, I was missing the avocado on my chicken, and fried tomato disappeared and only had the crust on my sandwich. Love the ambiance, but that was it. read more

Fun atmosphere in downtown district of Ocala. Unique entrees, yummy appetizers, and our server was really good.

Went here after seeing a show at the Reilly - it was after 10pm. Had a light dinner and cocktails on the rooftop. Was a wonderful experience. Weather was wonderful, server was attentive. Had the tacos; they were tasty and cocktail was very smooth. They were playing soft rock type music. I I was very impressed with the restaurant. Will definitely go back and highly recommend it. read more

I really like this place but my wife isn't a fan. The pizza is fantastic with cheese going to the edges and crispy. Thick crust that's buttery and delicious. My wife didnt like that their salmon was farmed. She got a salad that she wasnt impressed with (but she's hard to impress, i would know). We ate upstairs on the inside but outside deck while a guy was playing decent music covers (a little loud but thats alright). I want to go back but I need to find something on the menu for my organic gluten free dairy free (help me find something for her to eat please God) wife. read more

Pretty good food, a little on the pricey side. The waitress was great. We sat upstairs on the covered patio and watched the world go by. I wish they had a more adventurous beer menu. I'd go again if I was in town. read more

Dinner night with my wife, kids, and parents. I chose this place because of the reviews and I know my parents like good quality food. Our waiter was on point and very attentive! My step father mentioned to him jokingly, less foam on his next glass of beer. He went and brought my step-father a little glass with a little more beer in it! Kudos to our waiter. The food was good and the atmosphere was as well. Overall a great experience which was emotion evoking. Good memories were made! Thank you! 4 stars for the food, but 5 stars for the staff and atmosphere. read more

The ambiance was wonderful. My husband and I are new to the area and I wanted a hamburger. (Nothing wrong but Zaxby's but for 5 days we've had them). I was looking for other restaurants that possibly had good hamburgers but the reviews were horrible. Came across this restaurant and BINGO found my new favorite restaurant. Our waitress name was Kylie and she was adorable and friendly. Told us more about the area and the various places and things to do. I had the District 9 burger (I think) and it came with HOME MADE POTATO CHIPS! I can't wait to go back. The next meal I'm looking forward to is the Rueben sandwich. (They also have Rueben egg-rolls.) Thank you Kylie for making our experience awesomely amazing!! read more

Very good local place.Fun to sit outside. The food is hot and fresh-nothing amazing or exceptional but they do a solid job.

Went here for lunch. I had the shrimp tacos which were amazing. My husband had the chicken salad sandwich and it was generous portion! Love the selection of food in their menu- something for everyone. read more

We were a group of 12 that called ahead for an early dinner after a wonderful day at the Silver Springs State Park. We were greeted by friendly staff and although I originally requested rooftop seating we had to change our plans because the high tops were not suitable for a few of us. No problem at all..they quickly arranged regular table seating on the main level. Our server was so attentive and well organized as we requested separate bills and he seamlessly attended to our party of six couples. I am the party planner of the group and by far choosing a restaurant for a good sized group of diners can be daunting. You must consider seating, atmosphere, dietary needs, affordability and of course menu options. We started out with great cocktails and conversation as we looked over the extensive menu and everyone found something to satisfy their appetite. Everything came out hot and delicious which is pretty amazing when you consider a party of 12! All I can say is the District Bar and Kitchen checked off every box for us and we would without hesitation come back to Ocala to dine here! Thanks for a lovely end to our fun day! read more

My girlfriends and I went to the downtown district area for lunch and shopping yesterday. We noticed the rooftop bar. The lower bar and tables very cute and relaxing. We decided to go upstairs for lunch. Our waitor and all the servers were very friendly. Jake was our server and he was a delight. We ordered Poke Nachos (delicious). Watermelon Mule's outstanding. Our burger and chicken sandwich very yummy??? Prices were reasonable and we will definitely return. Must see when your in the area. !!!!!!!! read more

Truffle fries large portion and were ok . The kids meal was not touched by my 5 year old - also pizza kids meal ...not good Go somewhere else read more

If you are like me, you probably depend on reviews, but don't leave enough of them yourself. Maybe it's time we all change that. In this case it is a five star burger a super cool location and great service that remind me how important it is to leave reviews that might help others. My octogenarian parents, myself and my 20 something. Daughter stopped here on our way back from Silver Springs. Mom's knees and the hot day kept us from enjoying the amazing top side but downstairs inside we got our first experience of the District. My daughter got the mac & cheese, which was fine but honestly, the description made it sound more flavorful than it actually was. My father mother and I got the district Burger, which was on special that night for $10. This burger at the regular price of $16 would be excellent but at $10 it was out of this world. Very juicy with wonderful flavor. My daughter also had a Lavender Haze and it was excellent as well. Beer list is boring, but they have the requisite list of styles. This is a place that I will visit when I am in the Ocala area. read more

Went for lunch not realizing they were serving brunch. Sat upstairs with live music that was excellent. The food and cocktails were phenomenal. The blackberry grilled cheese and buffalo chicken pizza were particularly good. The Bloody Mary was nice and spicy. We were all thrilled with the service as well. I have no complaints. If we were local, this would be a regular stop. read more

1st time here! I got the Distruct Burger and Truffle Fries. Phenomenal. Even the Pickle had a slightly different taste that made it better. The person next to me got the Black Truffle Mac-n-Cheese. OMG. Keeping it simple..... If you were on Death Row, this is what you would want for your last meal! read more

My husband's words: "the Best burger I've had in a while". I had the blackened shrimp tacos, which were perfect! Would have loved to try the rooftop area, but at 100°, we chose to eat inside. Cute place and welcoming staff. Our server, Kyley, was friendly and attentive! Kudos to the chef! Next time we're in Ocala, we'll definitely go back. read more

Good food, good service. Upstairs seating was nice! Only complaint...graphic boxing on TV... wish it had been caught a little sooner
