The food was fantastic, well presented, intense flavors, good colors. The ace has such a great taste, really taking me back to those walks around to Polanco. Finally someone with good taste 😜. The service was very well intentioned, with some mistakes. I won't remove a star for that because they are less than 2 months old, they are still figuring it out. This is a very highly recommended place to go.

Being a long weekend we were not in a hurry to get up early next day it's Sunday. We wanted to have good cocktail, bar bites & enjoy our late night just then we remembered our earlier experience here which was fantastic so thought of going. By the time we reached around 8.30 pm we saw the restaurant was fully packed (even the bar area) so went ahead & gave our names to be added in the waiting list we were informed it will take around 1 hr so we went for a stroll. As the hostess informed us they will text us once the table is ready it was very easy to track our number with the text msg they sent us which we really liked it.... We enjoyed the free live music going on in the nearby area crowd was fun to watch as everyone was dancing & singing we had a blast & then we headed back to the restaurant thought of enjoying few drinks while waiting near the outside area... As we came back we checked the bar ...still the bar area was full no empty seats, the hostess asked us ...Is this ur first time here ?? We said no it's our 2nd visit.... We loved our earlier bar experience so thought of revisiting she was so happy to hear that... then she asked us would u like to order some drinks while ur table is getting ready we agreed thought ok let's enjoy whatever table we get.... Doesn't matter....so we ordered a couple of drinks while settling down in the waiting near & within few mins our table was ready (that was quick we thought) we were seated outside near the main entrance which was so nice since it was quite chilly the heaters kept us nice & warm throughout the evening.... As soon as we sat our waitress Sandra came & introduced herself we told her we have already ordered few cocktails while waiting so she went & checked our drinks which were already made & ready to be served.... My husband ordered 24 CARROT - reposado tequila, carrot juice, orange juice, lime, habanero honey. I ordered FAMOUS AND ALMOST NAKED -strawberry mezcal, strawberry Campari, caprano antica. Both t

We finally were able to try this smaller spot in Campbell and overall it was a very nice experience! They have a very creative bar with some fun concoctions and the manager Kendrick was helpful in chosing. The staff was attentive and interior decor was cool. What blew us away were the taco plates! We ordered the Birria and Chicken Tinga and both were fantastic. We will definitely return to try other things.

Another A+ addition to downtown Campbell. While I was bummed when the beer bar closed Distrito is a worthy successor. The hot dog was on another level and everything was 💯💯. Fun and fresh drinks will get u on that level 💨

Went in for a late dinner. From the experience of calling to get a reservation and the service at the restaurant, everything was great. The host (Kendrick) communicated well and had a truly welcoming attitude. Food and cocktails were delicious and served with care (by Dennis). We will definitely be back!

I'm so excited about this new little gem in Campbell! The vibe is great.. the food is great.. the drinks were yummmm! We ordered way too much for the for of us, but we finished it all and were super content leaving! The street corn was creamy and flavorful. The Hamachi shots were a surprise on the menu and delicious. Guacamole was fresh and right level of spicy. Street tacos, order the beef (steak) - you won't be disappointed. The enchilada was very tasty and a very safe choice.

9/27/24 Distrito did not disappoint tonight. Cocktails and food were on point as always. We felt the Lucid Dreams were just a scootch 'light' this time. Maybe it was a new batch that didn't have time to mature. It was still delicious but just a little light and not quite as full in the glass as usual. We're just happy to have it as an option! The Dulce De Leche Bread Pudding was tasty. It had a nice crispy exterior but it was a little watery. We think if they use maybe a thicker cream it will be stellar. It tasted like a churro. ❤️ We LOVE Distrito and we recommend them to everyone. ----------------------------------------- 7/27/24 Consistency is a factor we really appreciate, and Distrito Federal does not disappoint! We have brought many people here, and all have loved it. Don't come here if you're in a hurry. They are not in a rush, and they want you to enjoy your meal without feeling like you need to leave. The cocktails are always beyond fabulous and so well-balanced that you don't even taste the alcohol. The food is DELICIOUS and always fresh! I had mentioned before, the kale salad needed a little stronger of a peanut dressing, and they came through like a champ! It's tasty, spicy, and full of flavor. I tried the roasted Cauliflower tostada's and they were sooooo good! I just had them two days ago and I'm already salivating to go back! Thank you Isaac and staff for always making the experience top notch! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- March 2024 We arrived on Friday night without a reservation for 4 people and we were a little surprised at the 2 hour wait, but after trying to get in to other restaurants on the street, quickly realized it was a standard wait time. We are SO glad we waited! Distrito Federal is an absolute gem! It is small but MIGHTY! The cocktails are the best we've EVER had! If Lucid Dreams is ever removed from the menu, I think we will be physically ill! It's indescribabl

Had a late lunch here around 2pm on a Sunday. Would probably recommend a reservation at peak times, as it is a more cozy location. Have seen spot transition multiple times and this is a nice addition to DT Campbell. We had a group of 4 and we were able to walk-in and get a seat at the bar easily. Cute mood ambience and the bartenders were awesome! Super attentive and gave us great drink and food recommendations. The cocktails are fancy, with a lot of unique ingredients, like fresh juices and homemade chamoy. They also have a selection of decent Mexican beers. The food was really good! We got the guacamole which was pretty basic but opted for the homemade chicharrones to dip, which were amazing. Ordered the carne molcajete to share. Meats were cooked perfectly (even the steak), which can be hard with the pot overcooking. The pork belly tacos were also good - meat was tender. Friends ordered the enchiladas and the chile verde sauce was to die for. They also have homemade flour and corn tortillas, beans (3 different options) and rice which came with the entrees. It’s definitely elevated Mexican food at a bit higher price, but we all enjoyed it and will definitely go back. Hopefully they make it at this location!

Came in with my girl Sunday night and we were greeted right away by Jonah, who was super friendly and made us feel welcome right off the bat. He even asked us where we’d prefer to sit, which was a nice touch most places don’t offer. We sat at the bar, the bartender Rafa took great care of us. He asked what kinds of drinks we were in the mood for and made some solid recommendations. We both had a watermelon tequila drink he recommended that tastes just like the Mexican watermelon chile lollipops which was so refreshing and yummy! We ordered the esquite and the quesabirrias, and both were super flavorful. Big shoutout to Chef Geo! The food was bomb and the presentation was aesthetically pleasing. Overall, the service was top tier. All the staff were friendly and attentive. Definitely recommend checking this spot out. We’ll for sure be back!
