"I've been to district multiple times for food and live music and I have never been disappointed. They have some very talented people performing on the weekends and their food always hits the mark! Their brunch menus are fresh and creative and they have the best cheese curds in all of Ocala! If you're looking for a great spot to catch the game, have a few beers, get some great food and watch a live show, look no further!"

"District Bar & Kitchen is a great place to enjoy a meal in downtown Ocala! The food tasted delicious, and our server provided great service with a friendly, fun personality that made our visit even more enjoyable. The outdoor seating is a wonderful spot to enjoy the views of downtown and take in the lively atmosphere. There are TVs everywhere, so you can watch a game while enjoying your food and spending time together. We had a great time and highly recommend it for the tasty food, excellent service, and fun setting!"

"Upon entering the main level was immediately asked if I was looking to go to the second floor, which I was but it was such a weird question to be asked instead of a welcome, come on in type of greeting. It was a little strange. Then made my way through the exit door in the left and then right up the two flights of stairs to a door through which was a table that had a sign to wait to be seated. The hostess appeared, no greeting, and said just a minute then walked away and stopped at a table then waved me over. Kinda odd. The atmosphere was nice, not too loud. TVs all over the place it seemed. The server I had was very polite and was on top of everything. Food was good. $21 for a burger and fries is a bit steep but they do advertise using local beef. The burger itself had good flavor however was very greasy and fries were just okay. Definitely trying some other side in the future. Not sure if it was the greasey burger but the food did not settle well later. Someone else I ate with had a reaction to the food as well. But they ate something else entirely. Typically I will eat at a place several times before really committing to an opinion so I will likely be back at some point and update my review. The building is wheelchair accessible. There is an elevator on the opposite side of the building from where the stairs are. Parked at the parking garage for free about 4 blocks away. Limited parking nearby and most of it is paid parking."
