Our server Chris was amazing, answered all our questions. My husband and I shared because the portion was huge, appetizers, entree and dessert were all shareable sizes. My husband asked about the Gumbo when we were about to leave and Chris brought him a small sample (about 3 bites) which Allen said he would definitely be back for. And even sharing we were both full when we left. Love, love love this place.

Our first time here and we loved it! Our server, Maury, was very knowledgeable and helped us pick our delicious starters, drinks, meals, and dessert.

We made reservations for 6 this past Sunday (1/11/26) and I cannot say enough how great our experience was. To start, the lovely woman at the hostess stand kindly provided us with one of the tents to host our gathering. It was cold and wet out so we definitely appreciated this. Our server, Amber was so patient and gracious as we waited for members of our party to arrive and even when an additional person showed up that was not on the reservation. She was on top of everything and made sure we never lacked champagne. The food was excellent. We all sampled each other's plates and it was all so good and well presented. The lady who brought the champagne gun for my friend's birthday was funny and made sure we had a good time. Overall 10/10 experience! Could not have been a better way to start our celebratory day. We all work in the industry so we know good service and this was great service all around!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Tucked away in the heart of historic Springfield, The District is an absolute gem that perfectly blends neighborhood charm with elevated dining. From the moment you walk in, the warm, family-style atmosphere makes you feel right at home, yet the food is nothing short of exceptional. I started with the maple bacon deviled eggs, which were the perfect balance of sweet and salty—a fun twist on a classic. For my main course, I ordered the shrimp and salmon over grits, and it was truly unforgettable. The dish came with four giant, perfectly cooked shrimp and a tender 6oz salmon filet resting on top of the creamiest, most flavorful grits I’ve had anywhere in the country. The subtle buttery gravy tied everything together, marrying the spice of the seafood with the richness of the grits in the most satisfying way. Beyond the food, the experience is enhanced by their unique setup—you can dine inside, outdoors, or even rent private yurt domes for a cozy, one-of-a-kind evening. Nestled right in the middle of historic Springfield, the setting is as inviting and charming as the menu itself. I highly recommend The District and will definitely be back. If you’re looking for authentic food, a welcoming vibe, and a truly memorable dining experience, this is the place to go!

Even though it is tucked away in a neighborhood downtown, and there is not a lot of space for parking, it is a hidden gem! We sat outside, very relaxing, the food was excellent! We got the carnivore board and everything was cooked and seasoned amazingly! It did not need any extra sauces or seasonings. And actually, I did try the sauce and it overpowered the flavor that was already cooked with it, so I liked it better without sauce. The truffle potato salad is a favorite now! The only thing I could say about it is the asparagus could’ve been a bigger helping for two, but when I brought it to their attention, they had no problem giving us a little bit extra because they were so tiny. The server did say that they normally serve the big ones, so if she had seen it sooner she would’ve already accommodated for that. Service was very attentive. Would recommend.

Had a lovely time last night at The District. We had a lovely hostess Mari. She was very knowledgeable about the menu and super attentive to our table. Also at one point in the evening, we were brought out blankets from Mari and another lovely hostess. Enjoyed the vibes at this location 100/10 recommend and yes you are going the right way when driving there lol

Absolutely fantastic experience at The District SPR in Jacksonville. My girlfriend and I both ordered the braised short ribs with mashed potatoes, and they were outstanding—tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The mashed potatoes were rich and smooth, the kind you don’t want to stop eating. Great atmosphere, attentive service, and food that clearly shows care and skill. We’ll definitely be back.

Came here for brunch on my bday for the first time. The steak was cooked to perfection, the chicken and waffles was amazing, and the pear seasonal cocktail was delicious! My husband also tried the crab cakes and enjoyed them. We sat outside and the weather was prefect. An added bonus was the live music. When I go back I'd love to bring my crew and reserve one of the tents!

My first time and I was impressed…my job had our Christmas party there. Let me start off by saying our waiter Aniya(sorry about the spelling boo)she was Great and matched the vibe. We booked the dome and it was a nice size for 10 people and cute for what we needed it for. Now the food… chefs kiss 💋 I had the crab cakes and the ox tail with grits. Everything was so good. At the very end we enjoyed the champagne squirter😉. Definitely coming back.

I absolutely loved this place! Everything was amazing ..and I mean AMAZING. We ended up getting there close to closing because we thought they stayed open a little later, but the host still made us feel right at home. I forgot my server’s name, but she was incredible. Her recommendations were spot on, and she had extensive knowledge of the menu and the best pairings. She truly elevated the entire experience. Now let’s talk about the food… the crab cakes? JESUSSSSS. So good. The deviled eggs were delicious, the steak was cooked to perfection, and the crème brûlée was hands down the best I’ve had in my life. Compliments to the chef (they could probably win a season of Hell’s Kitchen.)
