Nice vibe in the downtown Oakland area. We came in for dinner on a Saturday evening. The space is dark with high open ceiling and a large U shaped bar that appears to be a big draw. There were a couple good sized parties on one side when we came in. They seated us at one of the high tops on the other side. Seating is pretty equally low tops and high tops here, plus the bar. Our server was ok. Nothing spectacular, but got the job done.
We appreciate that in this particular economy, District offers a dinner for 2 for $35 at this time. We had the arugula salad, lamb meatballs, and then a pizza. It was all good but be needed to add another small plate of the arancini to fill us up.

We have been visiting District for many years. We love the crowd and ambiance, and the happy hour generously goes until 7 pm. The 2 for 1 oysters used to be a great deal, but unfortunately on the last 2 visits the quality of the oysters has been poor—creamy instead of briny. Also, $8 for a beer isn’t a great “happy hour” price. They were busy on the last visit but they need to pay attention to quality and value.

I visited during happy hour and had fresh oysters and a flight of wine. Great open space, tasty food, well curated wines and best of all fantastic service. Highly recommended

I had an awesome night at District Oakland—definitely one of the better dining experiences I’ve had in a while. We sat at the bar and were lucky to have Teddy taking care of us. He was quick, super friendly, funny, and just had great energy overall. You could tell he actually enjoyed what he was doing, which made the whole vibe that much better.
Teddy gave us spot-on recommendations for everything we ordered. The margherita pizza came out perfectly blistered with fresh basil and gooey cheese—simple but done right. The burrata with prosciutto and crostini was rich and flavorful, and the spinach arancini with that tomato sauce might have been the sleeper hit of the night. Everything came out fast, hot, and delicious.
Also, gotta say—the Prosecco Teddy recommended was probably the best I’ve ever had. Crisp, refreshing, and way better than anything I’ve been served at most restaurants.
Service was on point from start to finish. I’ll definitely be back soon, and I’ll be asking for Teddy again.

Came for Happy hour and enjoyed the tacos & Marg deal, plus half off oysters and fries which were all so good! We walked in around 530pm and would’ve liked to hear the music playing just a touch louder, like a chill neo-soul vibe to help unwind from the work day. Felt like we could hear others chatting around us, but other than that it’s always a good experience at District. Bar tender was great, food came out quick and hot 🙂
Will be back again soon!

The atmosphere and service were good, and the food wasn’t bad.. but they were out of so many things. I ended up not being able have the cocktail or entree that I wanted. I could only eat a few items on the menu due to dietary restrictions, so them being out of multiple things meant I got my 3rd choice, and it was really not what I wanted. It was just odd to be out of so much stuff honestly. I would love to go back again sometime when they have everything, because it did sound/look pretty good.

Great happy hour! Nice selection of $7 appetizers, well cocktails, and wines. We really enjoyed everything on the appetizer menu but probably wouldn’t have paid full price for what it was. Large area with tents for covered outdoor seating. We were overcharged for our bill which we didn’t look at until after leaving, so make sure to double-check your bill before leaving.

On Halloween night, I left my tab open at District. I’ve been a bartender, so I understand the risk of leaving without closing out. The tip can end up more than generous.
But what shocked me was a subsequent charge for Chinese food from a neighboring restaurant. When I returned to collect my card, it was handed back to me, meaning the card was in their possession when the charges occurred. This wasn’t a lost or stolen card—it appears it was used by District staff for personal purchases at 2am.
I calmly explained to the bartender. He went to the manager who then left me waiting.
When he finally walked over to me, he said my card was given to someone else, they ran that person’s charge on my card, and then that person returned later with my card. At one point he said she said she charged something on it, but then backtracked saying he didn’t know if she used it.
There was no reversal of charges, no note with my card, and frankly his story doesn’t add up.
When I expressed doubt, this manager erupted in anger and walked away. My money was stolen and yet, he is angrier than me? I followed and said as much to him. He insisted on his “integrity and credibility” while gaslighting me.
He finally said he would “make this right” , gave me a personal gmail address—not a District email address— and told me to email him. I did. It’s been a week, and he’s never replied.
Is his story a cover up? You decide.
I’ve always defended Oakland against unfair criticism, but when local businesses abuse customers like this, it’s disheartening and unacceptable.

Food is nothing to rave about, small portions for the happy hour snacks, we ordered chicken wings, fried avocado and risotto balls. Our server was friendly, the couch/seating area is very large so I think good for groups but there’s nothing about this place that was worth mentioning or recommending from the 3 hours spent here for happy hour.
