    The meal is meant to be part show. It wasn't bad but nothing like it used to be. It feels very bland now. The food was ok but mostly overcooked. It's still an experience, just missing soul.

    From the moment we were warmly welcomed I knew it would be a great experience. We were taken to the table I had requested and greeted by server Orlando. He was an exemplary server throughout the evening. He was the first server in all of my Julii experiences who suggested that the salads are shareable among the entire table - and the Salad Greque was fabulous - all 3 of us enjoyed. All of the entrees were beautifully prepared and presented - the cod, steak frites and the crispy trout which I enjoyed tremendously. A fantastic restaurant - I highly recommend it!

    District Bistro was terrific - menu was very good, good wine and excellent service. I ordered the short ribs which were served over polenta. So so good and my friend ordered chicken marsala and she really loved it. Both dishes were presented beautifully. Highly recommend!
