    They have delicious crispy flat breads to go along with their extensive drink menu. I recommend the Lamb Sausage, made with roasted eggplant, kalamata olives, feta cheese and pomegranate molasses.

    Gluten-free crab cakes were exquisite. Pretzel bread (with gluten)was heavenly. Asparagus delightfully charred with tasty complimentary pepper. Chili was smoky and with real meat not ground beef.

    Exciting menu! Really good food. Tasty cocktails too. One of the best appetizers in town is the Pig Board, don't miss it!

    Mussels and Duck are amazing! Great staff and ambiance. If VP Joe Biden goes here you know it's good!

    The Bitches Say: C+. Guests enjoy the bottomless deal, and it’s great for large groups, but the food at District Commons is seriously hit or miss. Winner of the Best Place for Groups Award in 2013!

    All-American is both the culinary and the design emphasis here, and they've got a raw bar, 99 bottles of beer and charcuterie served on pig-shaped boards. [Eater 38 Member]

    Pretzel bun and the short rib burger. Also, dinner bell menus at 10PM are great deals and very tasty.

    The old fashioned is one of the best I've had, especially at the happy hour price. Its a pretty big low ball glass too

    Great beer selection. Burger is amazing...basically a pulled beef sandwich. Great mussels. Pleasantly surprised to say the least.

    Slooooow, unenthusiastic waitstaff. Took almost 10 minutes after being seated to get water. But the food was good!

    Nice range of lunch choices. Roasted pepper flatbread is tasty. Avoid certain waiters who are rude and judge your food choices despite being overweight

    The burger is made with beef short ribs instead of ground beef. Meat melts in your mouth. Delicious.

    The service at the bar is a mess, but the oysters are excellent!

    Unfortunately four out of the five bartenders suck! Look for the curly dark-haired tall guy. He's great. Also...Try the chili. It's awesome!

    Beer selection isn't very impressive. Trout entrée a bit underwhelming. Noisy. A touch Pricey. But still, not the worst place around to take an out-of-town friend for an easy dinner.

    Nice place, and good drink selection, but happy hour can get a bit too crowded. Go for food instead.

    Came here for a birthday brunch with a large group. In spite of the restaurant not being very busy, service was absolutely awful. Food was fine, but not great.

    This place has great wall art of America's bygone eras. Keep an eye out for the Norman Rockwell reprints.
