I've been to the restaurant side a couple of times and enjoy it immensely. We have always received exceptional customer service. The pizza is delicious as is the rest of the food we've tried. Portions are decent - you will not leave hungry! They are very accommodating to kids, and as such our kids love it there too.
The only con I have is the last time we were there, I had a couple glasses of red wine ($10 per glass) and the glasses appeared to be 1/4 full when they arrived at the table. For $10/glass I do expect the glass to have a little more in it. As mentioned this was only the last time we were there...previous times were fine.
Decently priced, close to home, yummy food and fabulous service. It's a great little neighbourhood secret! -

My husband and I were finally able to get away for a little short vacation this past summer (albeit just to Calgary), but we had plenty of friends to visit from his art school days that we hadn't seen in a while, so we made a week of it.
One of his friends lives in Mount Pleasant, so he brought his main squeeze, and we were able to walk the 2 or 3 blocks to this place. We' driven by and thought it looked intriguing, and Jim and the squeeze said it was fabulous, so in we went. The guys were able to order their favorite beers, and we all ordered food. There was at least one of the huge burgers in the mix, and I think a club. I got some sort of veggie burger. (wish they'd get finished with their website so I culd remember just what I had!). We agreed that everything was delicious.
We sat in the very back. The decor is gorgeous and understated, with old photos and maps of Calgary that have been handsomely framed. The lighting is nice and subtle. Not too dark, not too bright, and the paint colors were well chosen. We actually commented on the decor, because it was so striking.
Our waitress was super friendly and funny, we had great food, great beer, and great company. That's what eating out is all about. -
Review from Shelli S.
My parents wanted me to check out this place for a while so we headed here tonight for dinner. Inside is a very updated interior with dark mood lit walls.
The menu was excellent, there were choices like Poutine on the appetizers.
Salad choices offered a variety as well as pasta dishes, sandwiches, meatloaf, burgers, pizzas and features each night. Tuesday is apparently Pasta night and you can get half price pasta on all the regular dishes. One night is Big Rock night, Friday, and you get a deal on beer that night too.
I had the Steakout sandwich and the 6 oz of sirloin was amazingly tender, it has been a really long time since I had a steak from Alberta and it was so good. I had the choice to have fries or salad etc and chose the Caesar, it had small bits of bacon so for the veggies out there make sure you hold the bacon ;)
Some of the other choices eaten at our table were excellent burger and a pasta dish that arrived with lots of tomatoes and various vegetables, the presentation on the all dishes was excellent. The burger came with lots of fries and a side of gravy and the burger was huge.
Steak sandwich with the side salad is a filling but some might feel light dish as they don't do all that garnish type stuff on the plate. It was perfect for me, but some folks if they are really hungry might have felt the side of fries was a better choice.
When you pay they also have wireless Debit machines ;) Love these modern options (rarely do you see this in the city I live unless you are at an open air market) -

Loved this local gem. Friendly service and great food. I had the Elvis burger and it was fantastic. Thick juicy burger topped with a fried egg. Heaven.

It's not often that I'd give a business five stars right off the bat, but I have not one issue with my first experience, which was last night with a group of friends. It was recommended by a few people in our group who had been here before and really enjoyed it. One of the girls raved about the yam fries.
The reno work is excellent and I think it's a super cozy, casual, high energy environment. The place was busy and it was comfortably warm. I usually notice these things because I'm often cold and many places have cold air blasting on you from a vent somewhere. Being that winter has just struck, I was excited that the restaurant had good temperature regulation. It might sound silly, but it's the little things, you know?
Our server was friendly and attentive. My spouse and I tried the calamari and dip, which was awesome. Others at our table tried the poutine as an appetizer and the portion was huge. For a main I tried the meatloaf and substituted the mashed potatoes for yam fries. Both were delicious and again, the portions were massive. The fresh vegetables were perfectly done for my taste. Not overcooked, leaving a tiny bit of crunch. I had enough leftovers for another meal. Grasshopper was on special for $5. Perfect. Prices are very reasonable. Our group sat there for three hours and not once were we asked about ordering more or pressured to leave. An added bonus is that there's lots of free parking in the area.
I'd recommend 4th Spot to anyone and am interested in going on a night when they have live entertainment in the lounge. Yay for marvelous neighborhood restaurants!

Great food, great menu specials, great atmosphere. We took our kids (4 yo and 19 mo) for an early supper. Mussels as an appetizer were fresh and tasty. I had the spaghetti and meatballs....mmmmmm!!!! kids were happy and liked their mac and cheese. Great local tap selection for beer!! We will be back weekly!!
