| - Hipster Vietnamese fusion...
I like, I don't like it, then I like it again. This is pretty much the feelings I had when visiting District one. If a place projects itself as hipster, does that mean really they are no longer hipster? I got some googling to do.
After a cool yelp night at the Mirage, we decided a late night snack was required and after seeing some nice reviews of District One and throwing it up on my bookmarked places we decided to venture here.
Thursday night, the car park is packed, I have no idea why, maybe something was going on in another business that I didn't see or hear, so make sure you be patient.
Walking into a near empty restaurant we were seated in a nice booth with a nice window view of some cool cars and neon lights. The layout is actually quite nice, with a nice long bar at the rear of house and nice big Tv's. The centre has 4 tabled chairs with a few booths closer to front of house. This place is a hipster bar, it doesn't seem like a restaurant in china or Asian town.
We were greeted by an extremely nice sever who went through a bit of the menu and made a few recommendations. All prices were very very reasonable, and dishes were quite large.
After looking at a few reviews on yelp we went with the Pork Belly Buns. And I'd like to pass on they were great!! As a main I grabbed the 5 Spice Hen. Little disappointed in this dish, very very dry and a little bland. I tried the Oxtail Soup which was a little difficult to eat but I will say to give it a try!
I like District One, I'm a little unsure how successful it has been, but I do believe the location might hurt them a little. This market would serve better on the strip or in a Green Valley or even in the heart of Summerlin with less Asian restaurant competition.
Overall
Price: $$
Drink: 3-5
