Love the burnt ends here. Food is tasty. The price can easily get very high but I appreciate a local restaurant here.

Even with the snow, get out to District BBQ. You'll feel like you smoked your meal in your own back yard.Friendly staff, comfortable atmosphere , great smells and best of all awesome food.
Love the brisket and pulled pork! I usually grab sandwiches for everyone plus a few sides for good measure, and everyone's happy.Vegetarian options: I've found no vegetarian options. None. There's meat in the baked beans -- and it's great!
Food is adequate and extremely overpriced. Given they’re KC-inspired, it reflects poorly on the best BBQ in the world. Save your money and cook your own meat. Or just come here for some onion rings since they were pretty solid :)

The sliced brisket is fantastic, but the ribs leave a lot to be desired. Other food items really hit as well, just being a bbq joint with bad ribs just doesn't sit well. I've tried them multiple times now and they are consistent. There's usually little meat, it's stuck to the bone. The cuts just don't ever seem good. Lots of cartilage, very little reward for the work. Ribs are work? Exactly.Makes me not want to try the chicken.

I'm glad I found this place. I was headed for Panera Bread when I saw it from the main road. So I made a quick upturn and headed in. I'm a big snob when it comes to coke slaw. I've never found any place or any one who makes it as good as my mom....until today. The coke slaw is pretty good. The bbq is on point. The staff were super friendly and the environment is comfortable. Music is great, not obnoxious so it makes dining in enjoyable. I will definitely be back :)

It is very reminiscent of a Mission BBQ. Food was good but not great.
Their Mac n cheese is just not good, they have left beef ribs on the menu even though they stopped selling them ages ago and were rude on the phone as well. All in all I would say it is best to avoid Mission BBQ is way too close to them for the aggravation and subpar food quality.

Sorry, but the brisket was sub-par. Burnt Ed sandwich was meh but the French fries were totally excellent!

When District BBQ first opened I heard great things about it but never made it to the restaurant, and bet the years that chatter died down and I stopped hearing about it all together. I happened to be over in the area and needed to grab lunch so I thought now would be a good time. I drove over expecting to see a lunch rush but that was not the case and it was empty except for 1 table of about 5 people that were eating and talking. The restaurant is nice plenty of lighting, seating, and pictures of BBQ with award banners all over and that great smell of wood burning so could it be all that bad and maybe I missed the lunch rush? So I head to the counter and see menu above and it's a limited menu and feels like it's geared towards more of a large family/ catering clientele. As I am looking it over I hear a voice from somewhere behind the counter yell that they will be there in a minute. So after a minute or so a tall employee appears and asks, "do I know what I want"? No welcome or hello and I proceed to to ask a few questions about the menu and he seems irritated but my questions so I wrap it up quickly and order a half rack of St. Louis Ribs (6 bone), onion rings, Mac n' cheese, and a drink for $35. I paid and grabbed my cup and he said he will call me when it's ready. About 10 minutes later he yells out my number and I go grab my meal. The meal look great but I felt it might be a bit expensive for the portions but I dug right in. The ribs were dry, lightly seasoned, and not very meaty and I mean like they were cut thin to use the meat elsewhere. The sauces helped give the ribs some flavor. The onion were what you would expect and the Mac n' cheese had good flavor but was nothing special. All in all between the employee with the dry, I don't want to be here personality, the quality of the food, and the cost to portion ratio I won't return to District BBQ anytime soon. There are better chain BBQ restaurants around that don't cost as much and have better portions and better menu items.
"I had the brisket sandwich it was pretty good the brisket was very thinly sliced which I didn't care for but other than that pretty good"
