All these healthy people make me embarrassed as to what I've done to my body over the past 60+ years. My daughter says that it's never too late to turn it around. But like an oil tanker plowing through the ocean waves, that turn is going to take awhile. The first bend in that turn came in the form of Ginger tofu on a bed of kale and brown rice. Boy is that stuff ever good! Fresh, and if I'm at liberty to say, healthy. So I'll be crossing the threshold of Sunflower in the future. I'll get what my daughter had. Beats me as to what it was. She raved about it, so whatever she had, it'll be in front of me soon. Quick Tip: Look out for the cat.

The Sweet Potato Casserole was disappointingly bland. It lacked both flavor and sweetness, unfortunately. The Collard Greens were actually very good! From what I tasted at the cafe, these were the best. The cafe itself has a very welcoming aesthetic. There was a man who welcomed me as soon as I entered. He was very nice and helpful. There was a salt and pepper haired woman who had an extremely unpleasant and unwelcoming attitude. I even asked a question and she ignored me. So believe those reviewers who speak on this. There's a large covered patio in the front of the restaurant, regular inside seating, and a smaller uncovered patio in the rear. I was really hoping to have a better experience here. Maybe I just ordered the wrong things, but nothing made me want to give them another chance.

I had the vegan platter which contained a delicious variety of Ethiopian dishes. Potatoes and carrots, yellow lentils, collard greens, red lentils, cabbage and beets.

The Awaze beef tibs (yes, tibs) are so tasty and have a little spice to them. We loved the sambusas, little fried pies stuffed with seasoned meat or lentils. Perfect for eating in the car in the way home!

When the food came out it looked great and very colorful. All the the flavors were delicious. We were impressed. The staff was so friendly. We left feeling like we made friends.

On nice days, the patio is the place to be, The build your own galettes are the move here. Really solid, and the fact that you can customize them makes it even better. I tend to order the galette with prosciutto, leeks, white cheddar, and eggs. The lattes and matcha are so tasty and I appreciate that they don't charge extra for non-dairy alternative milk. Staff is generally friendly and the whole vibe is warm and welcoming, though service can be a little inconsistent depending on the visit. This has been a frequent spot of mine to catch up with friends or whenever I feel like being in France for the morning/afternoon. I'll be back!

The coffee was okay but the prickly pear sparkling limeade was horrendous and went straight down the drain. The avocado toast was fine and the gf bread was not too dry to hold together. We also tried lox but they really do need to look into getting gf bagels. The lox on the gf bread didn't really work because they really skimped on the cream cheese. Like I mean a pitiful amount for 2 big thick pieces of gf bread. Also, we just finished eating and belly rumblings are already happening so the food may or may not have been cross-contaminated with gluten. We know this is a risk whenever we go out to eat but this is important for celiacs to know. Do I think we'd go again? No, its not worth the drive or the price.

It took me a few years to make it to District Coffee, and now that I have made it, I can't stop going! I am a classic coffee shop guy, and a classic iced coffee guy, so the simple pleasures meet a simple space when I pop in here. While I love sampling their seasonal flavors, they always create magic no matter the season, I normally go for the cold brew with a splash of almond milk and an addition of the sugar free vanilla syrup. Simple perfection! They have a good-sized food menu with several items from meat pies, sandwiches, waffles and even tots. I have had the loaded tots, and while an odd combination with coffee, they were quite tasty! My usual is a pastry of some kind, whatever catches my eye in the case when I get to the counter is what usually ends up on my plate. The space is well laid out and features a few spaces that each have their own vibes from the small tables for those working or studying, to the window counter, the backroom with a communal table and a couch and they even have a boardroom that is rentable for those super official meetings. I normally tuck myself in the backroom, in one of the plush side chairs and hang out for a bit. Service is okay here, honestly probably my only critique. Level of service is definitely the least consistent in my visits so far. Never enough to keep me away, but definitely enough for me to notice. Overall, I am a fan of District Coffee, and when I find myself cruising around this part of South Nashville, you best believe I will be swinging by.

I'd liken its vibe a hybrid coffee shop and fast casual dining. I ordered an iced pecan (hello?!) latte and spring turkey sandwich. Both were excellent. The espresso is fresh, the milk is local, and the syrups are homemade. There's no photos because I think everyone will look at me if I snap a pic and it was too good to stop and stage my order. The sandwich was experimental but not so much that I couldn't enjoy the risks they took with a blueberry compote mayo. Only thing is I would have cooked the roasted potatoes about 3 minutes longer for a crispier side. But I'm just nitpicking, everything was phenomenal. If you're looking to support local, add this hidden gem to your list!
