It took me a few minutes to figure out this was the bar just outside of the Maya Pool Club. The day I went the bartender was very sweet and very attentive, the quality of the food was just okay but the price was surprisingly good. I got a turkey wrap of some sort for under $15 which was great so I wasn't all that upset when it didn't taste like much. That said it could have benefited from some added flavor. read more

Not a bad place to watch a football game during a weekday. The bartender told us that this place goes wild at night and on the weekend, but it was absolutely dead at 5P on a Thursday. Food was typical bar food. My big complaint was that standard drinks like seltzers are WILDLY overpriced; you'd think they'd cut prices during off-hours to bring in some business. I'm guessing that the prices stand because this is a Scottsdale club in what one of our buddies calls "the boom boom zone." Not exactly my place, but probably a blast on the weekends for bachelor and bachelorette parties. read more

In town for a conference from Buffalo and the bartenders turned on the Bills game, gave great food recommendations, and drinks were delicious. Thank you for catering to the Bills Mafia. Highly recommend for larger groups - food and drinks all delivered in a timely fashion. GREAT Buffalo Fries. read more

Was brought to this location based upon recommendation.... BUT had no idea what type of establishment it was... there was 2-3 bouncers checking ID and then letting you in. They had a bar at the front of the entrance and a life size beer pong (with garbage cans and a soccer ball) then as you venture inside there is a couple more bars areas (although one was closed) and additional games like cornhole. We had ordered 2 drinks and 2 beers and it was $60. Super pricey, but if you are 21 and have money this place is for you. Don't think we would venture back here on our own. read more

This is not a bad club by any means. Let me elaborate. THE DJ IS AWFUL. They remixed squid games, wrecking ball and Taylor swift in one night. Yall. Please read this review and get a new DJ. read more

How do I start...There are lots of places one can visit in Scottsdale, but fewer you can be convinced to stay at. We had an absolute BLAST here and stayed much longer than we'd have expected, all because of an incredible server named Liz. She was over-the-top with her service, and I can't wait to send all of my friends here. Liz, thank you for your energy and impeccable service. We'll be back to see you again soon! read more

The District - Such a great Saturday!!!! - Bars Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

Awful customer service. Bartenders are very unaware of the atmosphere and do not tend the bar well. People were complaining about the service and everyone that complained were asked to leave. The music was decent however it was very dirty and the misters were dripping profusely. Just not a good experience for Sunday funday Also, the bar back was fixing certain people drinks and leaving others standing at the bar for about 15 min. THEN to top it off we had to convince them that they had our card bc we had a tab open.....they lost my boyfriends card (super annoying trying to explain to the bartenders AND security they had the card). About 5 min later the decent bartender came and apologized bc they did indeed have the card. Just an unorganized mess. read more

'Tis the season for football and baseball, where Sunday, Monday and Thursday night's rule. Even better, is staying in Scottsdale just a stone throws away from Old Town and having all those fine establishments at our fingertips to choose from when we want to grab a bite and watch a game. The District is an open and inviting place, with lots of tv's, a large bar and a djay that was spinning during the commercial breaks keeping the vibe upbeat and fun. The menu is a solid bar menu consisting of mainly shakes and buns with a few extras like cheese curds and sweet potato fries. As far as bars go, this one is a solid A-Ok for me. Nothing I didn't like but also nothing that made us say, " best we've been to" just a great location with a big bar atmosphere. It will do and we will be back. The extra star is for their delicious District julep... I heart juleps. read more

LOL Wait for the last bar to ruin our vacation in Scottsdale (which I really enjoyed and totally will be returning to, just not here). My boyfriend and I ordered a turkey burger and then as we were waiting by the bar to get a drink apparently he "grabbed my boobs" (I have no boobs, so not sure what the bouncer was even talking about) and their GM "Peter" kicked us out. We even asked to see the cameras because that's was a total lie and he just shoved us out the door saying he wouldn't show us (aka it didn't happen. To everyone, totally check out Scottsdale, but skip this place. I'm updating my response, as the owner responded... if your "customers felt uncomfortable with our behavior" than be honest with us and say that. Not make up BS that he grabbed my boob. Literally couldn't be more disgusted by such an establishment. read more

I was the designated driver in my group and I was kicked out for "sleeping" however everyone around me were witnesses and said I was not sleeping. I told them I was sober, DD, and there was clearly no alcohol on my breath. The employees then said, "Sweetie there is no argument here, you need to leave." And I was escorted out. My group had no choice but to leave as well since I was their DD. And there were right in the middle of ordering drinks, so not only do they not support DDs and genuine safety but they lost business of a group. We later went to Maya and Pretty Please with no issues. Whatever you do avoid this establishment at all costs. We go out at least once a month for friends' birthdays, like we did that night but we'll happily take our business elsewhere. read more

Sunday funday! Best bar in Old Town. Fun atmosphere, cute waitresses, and good food. It's a Packers bar so during the season this is our spot for the games. Bottomless mimosas on Sunday for $25. Quality food too. This place is poppin' all day and night on the weekends. Great music - their DJ's never disappoint. It's always a good time at The District. 5/5 read more

Do NOT spend your money here!!! I don't like to post negative reviews, but I had to write one about my experience since I saw other reviews about the same thing and the owners obviously haven't made the necessary staff changes. 2 friends and I visited this past weekend and spent about $400. Had a great time inside, with pleasant bartenders and music. That was where the good ends and the terrible starts... I lost my phone inside near closing time and didn't notice until I stepped out. I immediately turned around, showed the location of it on a friends phone to security and asked them if I could go back in to look (15 minutes till close). A bouncer pushed me away with a hand to the chest (unprovoked) and said no one is allowed in. I pleaded with them and the 4 of them standing outside doing nothing laughed at me and said "too bad man". I asked another and he said "I don't care" . Meanwhile they stood outside catcalling girls on the sidewalk. No one offered to go check, any help at all, and barely looked at me. I was eventually able to ring it and a waitress brought it outside to me. Bless her. The bouncers seemed upset I got my phone back to be honest. I understand them not letting me back in , but as employees their job should be to take care of patrons. They were extremely demeaning and not doing anything useful at the same time. Hopefully something changes before this cool bar continues to earn a bad reputation and ruins more peoples nights. Worst experience with security at any place ever!! Would not recommend this club and suggest you go somewhere else. read more

BLACK PEOPLE AND PEOPLE THAT HAVE A BLACK FRIEND DON'T GIVE THIS ESTABLISHMENT ANY OF YOUR MONEY! I tried to come here to meet friends to watch the OSU vs Michigan game and was turned away by security because I had on Jordans.... Yes JORDANS... I can understand if it was a night club and you say no tennis shoes/ athletic wear but it was 10 am and there were others wearing tennis shoes. To specifically target that brand of shoe explicitly says what type of demographic your trying to keep out. When I was younger I would've argued with security, asked to speak with a manager and tried to convince them to let me in, but these days I'm not gonna fight to give you my money. I'll spend my money with establishments who welcome me. My friends who were let in before I got there tried to speak with a bartender and they were told it's just the policy. No logical reasoning as to why the policy is in place. They were also told no camo amongst other targeted dress code restrictions yet she was let in... Interesting. The bar is trash and classless for this. Eric - Other bars and clubs in that area have a no tennis shoe policy that do not single out Jordans in particular. I obviously don't know every establishments rules so I am sure there others that have this discriminatory policy as well as the district. Because multiple places have it does not justify you having it as well, it just means your all trash for having it. read more

The District had a good run but unfortunately turned into just another cliche BS Scottsdale spot. The management reading this will have too much ego to give AF, but LONG story short, our tip came $10 short of 20% for our table (last time I checked a tip % was up to me), and they didn't want to give my card back over a 19% tip. I was tempted to throw a band in the desperate chick's face and walk out, but didn't want to give them the satisfaction. They then proceeded to kick out my sober friend for trying to hold them accountable, but they just claimed she was drunk and kicked her out. So trash. Food is basic since they shrunk their menu, DJ played the same songs 3-4 times, service was slow, no sound during playoff football. Add that to the young, ego-filled servers who want a badge for being basic, and you're left with a spot I'll never return to. I had hope for District and I've spent thousands at this spot, but never again. FORGOT TO MENTION: I gave that girl $20 cash to charge my phone . I'm sure that more than makes up for the 1% she was missing on the table tip. Got paid $20 to plug a phone in but wants be petty about 1%. I got friends working hard to make minimum wage! Swear these employees are desperate! read more

We attempted to enter this establishment on a football Saturday at about 2:15 pm and were told that our friend could not enter because he was wearing "athletic shorts" and those were not allowed after 2:00 pm. (Mind you, his shorts were expensive collegiate team shorts, he had just returned from boot camp a few days prior and showed his military ID, but that did not matter to the guy working the entrance.) Also notable is that their female wait staff were all dressed in bike shorts and sports bras, which, last time I checked, are ALSO "athletic gear." This "policy" was not posted anywhere nor could we find it on their website. As we stood aside trying to decide where else to go, we watched them allow a guy they appeared to know to enter wearing cut off sweat pants. When we questioned why he was permitted after our friend was not, a guy who appeared to be a manager flashed a $20 bill implying that if WE had tipped them our friend might have gotten in, and he then proceeded to get pretty rude. Perhaps he uses those payoffs to buy the snazzy sweater he was wearing that made him feel important and entitled to act like a jerk? (By the way, Carleton from the Fresh Prince called and he wants that sweater back!) Ultimately, it's the establishment and the athletic-gear-wearing staff that lost. We had 8 people in our group and another 6 people coming to join us. We took our food and drink tab -- and our tips -- somewhere else and blessed their staff with a healthy tip instead. Had we read the other reviews about this place, we likely wouldn't have even tried to enter as it sounds like this is standard and apparently acceptable behavior. How unfortunate for the other staff members who miss out on the opportunity to earn tips because of the crappy behavior of the egotistical guys at the door. You all deserve better! read more

I truly hate to write this as I rarely ever speak poorly about non-chain establishments, but I simply have to write that the security at this bar made fun of my Asian girlfriend, deliberately and in front of us. She can take a joke, but hearing "Security" call my girlfriend Ching Chong and pushing their eyelids to the side to "try to look like her" is really something I wouldn't expect in 2023...So dissapointed and shocked this type of behavior still exists and is accepted at this establishment. read more

The bouncer grabbed me inappropriately when I asked to leave the bar. The disrespect. This bar is a disgrace.

TLDR: 3 lost CCs by waitress and demand to pay my bar tab twice. No response from owner after reaching out. On Saturday, I went to the District. I was ordering drinks, and the waitress told me she didn't have my card. The same thing happened to two other people in my group with their cards as well. My card and another were eventually found, but my friend's was not. She was visiting, so she was stuck here for the rest of the week with no card. It seems like someone is either being really sketchy or really irresponsible. We were not feeling the fact that our cards had been lost, and after received my check and my card, so I tipped, cashed out, and was heading to the door to leave. I was then stopped by the bouncer on my way out, who told me that I hadn't paid. I was confused and so were the others in my group, they clearly all saw me sign my bill. So I told the bartender there must have been a mistake, and he was very aggressive with me. He had accused me of trying to dine and dash and essentially steal. I was embarrassed and confused, and he challenged me to show my bank statement. I pulled it up, and certainly there was a statement for the tab that I had paid. He then screamed in my face, calling me stupid and saying that tab was for Maya Dayclub. And sure enough, my other charge from the District came up under Maya Dayclub as well. I then told him I had never been there, and I have not. He then accused me again of trying to steal. He ordered more security and threatened to call the police, so I gave him the additional $50 that he was demanding from me before I left. He would not have closed my tab and handed me my card if I didn't pay. My friends saw me pay, I gave him physical proof that I paid, and 3 cards were lost. I'm wondering what's going on here? Still no response from owner after reaching out. read more

Security guards are on a power trip! My ID was taken away, even after giving them extra forms of proof. Even after answering all of their questions they kicked me out and told me to call the police for my ID back! My credit card, social medias, Apple settings all have my name. They did not give any of my friends a hard time, just me.. discrimination and racial profiling is questionable here. Look at the health score violations at this place too, not surprised at all. read more

I like that fact they open till 12 am. The burgers were good and juicy. Onion rings were fantastic. The shakes were also good. My kids are picky and couldn't make up their mind on what they wanted to eat. The guy taking our order was super understanding and took his time with us. But the service was a little bit slow, we waited 20-25 minutes for the food. And the price was okay! You can have a try if you are in the area. read more

This was our pre-game spot before going to the club for a bachelorette party. I didn't realize until now that this was an actual club we just thought it was a bar. We came in because the music was bumping from the streets and they played good music. We got a few drinks and sat at a table listening to the music. Couldn't really figure out where the dance floor was situated. It's a nice venue, broken up into two spaces with two separate bars. The DJ was on point here really loved the music. It is located right next to Maya night club. It wasn't crowded while we were there but I am sure it got packed later in the evening. We went to another club but I wouldn't mind staying here to party. The drinks were good and the music was excellent. The girls had fun and it's very open. It was pretty hot inside but we found seats under the AC which helped. Overall we enjoyed our time here and we wouldn't mind coming back here to party next time we are in town. It was a great experience. read more

If i can give this place 0 stars i would . RUDE as fuck. Don't go here . The host at the door stated we can sit at the bar and shortly after a security guard came by and rudely stated if we weren't seated we had to leave . There were 5 of us and 3 had seats. Not once did he offer to get us a chair or suggest additional seating . Extremely unprofessional. Nice environment with other places around that have way better customer service . I suggest going across the street to Bottles Blonde or around the corner to Dierks Bentley's Whiskey Row. Much better customer service . read more

On my 2nd trip to Scottsdale, I made my rounds bar hopping in the Entertainment District and can say officially that I've been to every bar there. Among all the bars in the area, I think that The District is my favorite. My experience this time around was so much better than last year's, and I wouldn't have wanted to cap our night at any other place. The bouncers were cool and didn't stand around like robot douchebags. The music was just as good as I remembered with a mix of Top 40, hip hop, EDM, trap, etc. For a Saturday night on a holiday weekend (Martin Luther King), the place didn't feel so claustrophobic with people. The bathrooms were clean and maintained pretty well through the night. I had such a great time partying here, and I look forward to coming here again on my next trip to Scottsdale! read more

Food-wise, 5-stars. Service-wise, 5-stars...ish. We tried two of their enormous burgers via a Groupon we purchased, which also included a side and two shakes. Both the Fireman burger & Californication were very tasty & filling. The side of sweet potato tots were good, as were the Chocolate Cherry and Very Berry shakes. I like the setting. Very 'Murican, with a touch of classic American pop culture, and pretty similar in layout to the other restaurant bars lining this street. Our server was nice and bubbly too. The only real complaint I had is that with the overabundance of food that comes in this packaged deal, we really didn't need two shakes. So we asked if we could substitute one of the shakes for a beer, which is actually $2 less on the menu, thinking it'd be an obvious "yes", and our server returned to inform us that regrettably the manager said, "no". That part turned what would've been a 5-star experience into a solid 4... I can understand if we were asking to sub for an item that actually costs more, but we were doing the opposite, and we ended up having to toss half of the shakes because it's just too much to put down in one seating. read more

This was one the best burger joints I have ever been too. My husband and I are very well traveled and have lived in 6 different states. We went there with our three boys at around 2pm on a Friday. We ordered two cheeseburgers, two "Harlem burgers", ranch bacon French fries, cheese curds and 3 shakes...of which were one chocolate and 2 peanut butter flavor. The burgers were huge! Like 5-6 inches in height and 4 inches wide. They were juicy and delicious. Their cheese curds were out of this world! They are very similar to mozzarella sticks but the breading was more tempura like. The onion rings were crunchy and big with the onion part staying intact with the battered outer layer. The shakes were simply put evil because they were so tasty and perfect in the amount of thickness that you don't want to share. read more

The worst New Years experience ever. Do not recommend coming here at all. Ladies and people of color be careful. A bouncer/security guard manhandled me, inappropriately grabbed me, and said some very disrespectful things to me. I believe he did these things thinking I was drunk and didn't know what was happening. I was sober (I don't drink alcohol) and knew exactly what was going on. I tried to report the incident but was told it was private property and they could kick out whoever they want in whatever way they want by Scottsdale PD. The worst part was I was made to feel like I should expect this treatment if I go out. This is definitely not true and I have had great experiences going out before.
