Walk past the restaurants front door, guests encounter a antique bronze tin ceiling wrapped around historic 1900 brick, custom vintage lighting, but only the adventurous will discover all that The District GastroBar has to offer. With a distinct dining room, grandiose bar layout, an open air patio and a women’s bathroom complete with a salon inspired feel and antique perfume bottles. The cuisine, much like the design, is intended to set a new course.

3 things we can always count on at F&D is good food, good ambiance and a good value. However, for us, service is always their Achilles’ heel. But not tonight! Sarah knocked it out of the park. Thank you Sarah for your attention and wonderful service.

Always good food and ambience. Our service was very good even though they were very busy at the one o'clock hour. However, my soup and sandwich (both specials of the day) were luke warm when delivered yet the flavor was good.
