I have been here twice. Each time the food was delicious & the service very good! Both times I have eaten here have been before going to the theatre. Our food came out quickly each time leaving us plenty of time to eat & get to theatre. I thought they had generous portion sizes too. Last night we ate on the patio. The patio is right near the alley but with the nice landscaping you don't even notice. For a large glass of wine & entree my bill was around $32. Very reasonable! I highly recommend District!
We went in after a walking tour of the Playhouse Square district. They were doing set-ups for the next day and even though they never said anything, I know they could not have been thrilled to see our party of eight (8) walk in.
The staff was fabulous! They quickly pushed two tables together and got everything set in record time! Our waiter was great! He came to the table a few times to ask if we had any questions about the menu before we ordered.
The service was wonderful and the food was delicious! I had the Pan-Seared Teriyaki Chicken & a salad of Mixed Greens. The dessert menu looked terrific, but I couldn't eat more!
I highly recommend this restaurant!
We had a show to go to so we were limited on time. I picked this place based on the menu. My friend loved the gluten free options. It was a cute place. Our server was great at understanding our time constraints. I ordered the double bone pork chop and while the presentation was perfection, it definitely wasn't what I was expecting for the money. I was disappointed. It was very small compared to other restaurants with a double bone pork chop. Everything tasted great. My friend enjoyed her meal. We were in and out in plenty of time. I'd come back again and try something else.
Lovely restaurant, wasn't very busy when we came in (Friday night around 7p) but I think we arrived after showtime, which we were fine with! Server was lovely, had excellent recs, and immediately asked if we were attending a show so that we could get in and out efficiently. Bread was warm and fresh, and the variety of butters and the balsamic dipping sauce lasted us right up until our meal came. We had the brisket, short rib, and scallops and each was well prepared and delicious. While the scallop meal *looked* a little less substantial than the others it was amazing and I would order it again. Note that there are two dining rooms and we were seated in the dining room with thr bar, so it was a little noisier, but definitely fine. Lovely space, good ambiance, would recommend.
A real gem in the quiet city on the river. Excellent everything. Amazing tuna appetizer and the Caesar salad had the most excellent dressing. Yeah I know, Caesar dressing, but done unlike anything I have ever experienced. And Kudos to the old fashioned special.
Everything was amazing from start to finish! My fiancé had the special of the night (Filet Oscar) and everything was so well done! I had the octopus which was delicious, my only issue was that it didn’t come with any carb, it would have been so good with some rice personally. Steven and Eric were amazing and made our experience all the better! Will definitely visit again!
Overall, my husband and I had a great experience! We ate here before the show “Six” at Playhouse Square. It took an hour for our food to arrive but we found out they had been closed for a month and it was their first night back. So we understood it takes a little while to get back into the swing of things. We had fried calamari with their special glaze on top which was good. My husband ordered the special of the night which he loved. I had the Statler chicken with a delicious white wine cream sauce.
We really enjoyed a late lunch at The District. The service was amazing. I can’t say enough about the fried green tomatoes. Get them! Even if you’re not traditionally a tomato person. They’re fantastic. The beef brisket and the mango barramundi were excellent entrees. And the Fire & Ice and creme brûlée ... delicious.
Absolutely beautiful restaurant in theater district! Great food at a great price! The Short rib just falls apart and the calamari with the lemon aioli to die for! We will be back to try other menu items!

Enjoyed dinner here for the first time before going to the theatre. The service was excellent! Every person we came in contact with was polite and cordial. Our meal was delicious and fresh! We had the Seafood Risotto and the Stuffed Salmon. We will definitely dine here again!
The salmon was great and I had to try the fried green 🍅. Tony provided good service and was very informative and pleasant. Thank you for my first night in Cleveland dinner experience!
This place has a laid back vibe, but I'd still very nice inside. It has a great location that is within walking distance of the parking garage as well as the playhouses downtown. The food was excellent and the service was friendly and knowledgeable. Be sure to make a reservation as this is a small place and will easially full up if there is an event at playhouse square.
