| - All right earlier tonight after driving around we ended up at District One in Las Vegas on Jones just off of Spring Mountain. We decided to give this place another try after a few months. To start we ordered the garlic fries which has fresh crushed garlic and Cajun seasoning. We ordered the fries well-done extra crispy and they came out soggy I wasn't a fan. We ordered the fish tacos which was yellowtail sashimi, Avocado, cilantro, and cherry tomatoes. The tacos were delicious we were very happy they had a unique wonton taco shell which really made the dish no complaints. Next we ordered the belly buns which was braised pork belly, Cilantro, and peanuts with a typical bun. I was very disappointed with them they need a lot of work, they are average at best. Next we tried the Oxtail Fried Rice which had Shredded Oxtail meat, red onion, soy sauce and a fried egg. Another disappointment they said it was one of their more popular dishes but failed to deliver amongst our table. Lastly we tried the Vietnamese Beef Carpaccio which consists of beef carpaccio, citrus soy, sesame oil, truffle oil, white onions, basil and peanuts. This was very good, nothing that I would completely rave about but very good. No complaints I would order it and the tacos again for sure.
Pros: Good food, cool atmosphere, good crowd and they're open late.
Cons: although some of the dishes are good the rest of menu definitely needs some work. They really could be doing better. The staff seemed a little distracted with each other talking and on their phones at times and not really paying attention to a lot of the tables my friends and I had to wait a few times for water and drinks. After ordering appetizers our waiter disappeared for at least 15 minutes before he came back to take our entrée order. Lastly no wifi this is always a bother considering it's 2017 and every business should offer it to their patrons.
We are leaving disappointed for a second time which is very frustrating.
This place has so much potential and they keep dropping the ball. If they step their game up and improve the menu and food quality we would go all the time. As of now they have two strikes against them and I don't want there to be a third. We will give them another chance in a month or so and we will see. As of now they get a C maybe even a C-
