4th Spot Kitchen & Bar

Used to love this charming little spot. However, the last few times I have been they have told me 15 – 20 minute wait for a table and then stood around waiting for over an hour. Not fun when you have a 1 year old. Also didn’t appreciate the $ 3.50 charge for a soda water. Sadly, won’t be going back anytime soon.

I cannot say enough good things about 4^th spot. I live in the area and my husband and I frequent 4^th spot a lot. I have loved everything I have tried here, but my favorite is the burgers. They taste so fresh and the toppings are fantastic! Also love their tacos and the house salad! Great little spot, which is why it can be hard to get in during peak hours.

We arrived at 9:30 on a Saturday and the place was pretty empty, so it was understandable that they were closing early.
We ordered fries and the calamari, both tasted okay but we found the calamari dish quite small.
The service was great! Very attentive and happy.
Overall a very nice experience.

Always a great place to catch up with friends. The atmosphere is really nice. Not too loud, friendly staff and, as always, a great menu. I had the steak sandwich and others In our group had the Cobb salad, wings and tacos. We all really enjoyed it. The gluten free Mac and cheese was also shared by all.
Parking can be a bit difficult, but other than that, I strongly recommend stopping in.

First time here:
The food is amazing, local, well priced.
The beer is amazing, local, well priced.
The atmosphere is amazing, local, welcome.
I WILL ALWAYS COME BACK!

If you don’t mind a crowd and some noise, this is the place to be. The food is delicious with large proportions and I have not been disappointed by the service yet.
There are deals every day of the week and a bar and patio to sit in as well. The maps of Calgary and street signs on the walls really give the restaurant a sense of community, and that they belong in the NW.
The restaurant itself opened up after a well known, community favorite pizza place flooded in the 2000’s. Rather than repair, the owner sold the property to 4^th Spot, and they in turn bought the old family pizza recipe! They have their own pizzas, as well as the family classics from the old owners.
My recommendations:
— The Chipotle Fried Avocado Burger. It is a massive burger with two halves of fried avocado on a well seasoned patty.
— The Cheesy Pickup Line Wings. Truly delicious, with your choice of dipping sauce. Fried cheese on my wings? Yes please.

We went here for lunch while we were in Calgary. I had the beef chimichurri tacos. They were a bit dry at first so I tried their house hot sauce. The tacos were perfect with the hot sauce, the hot sauce is smokey and spicy. Overall the service was good and timely.

Went here for YYC Pizza Week and had their 403 Meaty Breakfast Pizza! Delicious and great service! Love the atmosphere! Come try their unique wing flavours on Wednesdays.

My father and his friends finally treated me to here because i have been marking too long time.hahahahaha.joking we ordered five meals, all of them were good. Although this the first time i ate burger in Calgary, it was not bad. Excluding burger, the favorite meal is that soup! It was amazing, i love it! The cup of soup was covered by the fried wheat cake or pancake (Actually, i don’t know how to describe), but it tasted nice.

The French onion soup was one of the best I’ve ever had. The giant pastry on top makes it even better. Had the stampeder dip, best ever. Can’t get any better.

My first time at 4^th spot and the inferno prawns are delish!!! The prawns were cooked to perfection. And the truffle and cheese pizza my friend had was also really good as well. However the mussels were on the small side and kinda cold.
I would come back for the prawns!

I’ve been to the 4^th Spot many times and it’s definitely worth the wait. The service is great and the food is amazing. I do miss a few of the menu items that they recently removed with an update but I’m still more than satisfied by the excellent choices. My favorite is the meatloaf, it’s amazing.

Food looked awesome but was lacking flavour. I got the drums n mac but subbed the mac for fries.
Drums were fried crispy and hot but the coating needed some salt and seasoning. The maple syrup was a nice touch but was the only flavour punch. It came with an apple Cole slaw that had absolutely no flavour! There were other veggies, corn on the cob and asparagus, that were equally boring in taste.
Odd thing is while my chicken was piping hot, my fries were merely room temperature. Prices are very high for the quality and quantity of food. Not sure if I’ll be back or not, still on the fence with this place.

A comfortable place. Great service. The server caught me looking at her bum. Haven’t tried the food. They have Dictador rum: D

Super classy but comfy home feel, PHENOMENAL food, and incredibly friendly and welcoming staff. Definitely going to return again! My mom and I split the French onion soup and the maple canuck burger and were totally blown away by both. Brilliant! Will definitely return.

Highly recommend you try the Sausage Pizza, delicious and the Saucy Meatballs… mmmmmmmmmm, Good!
Not too mention a very good array of beers on tap to help wash it down.
I’ll be back…

The only bad thing I can say about this place is that there are so many amazing options on the menu that it’s really hard to decide. Also, it’s a busy place, so I’ve had to wait as long as 15 minutes before — not bad at all.
Everything I’ve tried here has been really, really good. Burgers, tacos, steak sandwich, all awesome. The homemade hot sauce is good enough to steal a bottle (I haven’t… yet). They have a fairly extensive beer list, and the sides are interesting and delicious. I’ve had good service every time I’ve visited — not stellar service, but good.
One unique experience I had here was two weeks ago, as we were finishing our meals, and the entire lounge area filled up with the unmistakable smell of pot. I looked around (as did all the other customers) to see who was passing a joint around. I guess someone was relaxing at the end of their shift just outside (or inside?) the back door, and the wind blew the stench right into the lounge? The whole incident brought an otherwise 5 star experience down to 4 stars, but hey, maybe some people like second hand weed smoke?

I’ve been coming here since it was reinvented. Formerly Caruso’s, an excellent pizza place, 4^th spot carries on the excellent pizza tradition.
It has beautiful décor that is starting to see some wear, notedly the paint by the hostess station. Fortunately the chalkboard illustrations around the restaurant draw your eyes there.
We had decent service but it was much slower and less attentive than I’m used to there. It was busy for sure (20 min wait for a table on a Saturday night isn’t bad) but not busy enough to warrant the gaps in service.
We were there to kick off Poutine Week so we checked out the three varieties and then asked our server if all of them go towards the Mealshare purpose of the Week. He didn’t know anything about Poutine Week, even though its been published for weeks in magazines that it was happening. We got it sorted out though. He told us the Butchers Shoppe poutine was a big portion that was a good starter for us to share.
False! This amazingly delicious poutine was humongous. With two very hungry people we still had a hard time finishing it. When the burger we ordered to share arrived, we laughed and asked for it to go.
That poutine though, its delicious. Shaved beef, Spolumbos sausage, bacon, cheese, and BBQ sauce. The only thing it needs it more fries. The topping to fry ratio was a wee bit lacking. Still good though!
I give 4 stars because I have had consistent good service there over the years and the food is stellar. If you’re a pasta or mushroom lover, you need to try the Mushroom Ravioli. Warning, contains almonds and deliciousness. Avoid if you’re allergic to either!

Ok, they get bumped up to 4-​stars because:
Their staff are usually friendly and lovely.
The burgers. oh… so good!
It has a cozy feeling to it, and usually good for bigger groups.
Going back!

Half priced wing and wine Wednesdays? Sign me up! Better yet, you don’t need to sign up for anything. You just show up and order a bottle of wine for half the price. It’s THAT simple. 4^th spot is kind of like a local, non-​chain version of Joey’s (What was Joey Tomatoes, not to be confused with the fish n chips place.)
Ok caveman dieters — there are salads and then there are SALADS. If your idea of the perfect salad is actually hearty steak dinner on top of a bed of leaves just for fun, you gotta check out the Matadore Salad. This thing is 2 large BBQ skewers loaded up with marinated steak, peppers and onions, a good size chunk of grilled focaccia and feta. Now that’s a meal! But just to be nice, they drop all of that on a pile a lettuce and mixed greens. This was possibly the first time in my life I’ve asked to have my salad packed up to go.
There’s a dining room as soon as you walk in but if you left the kids at home and are 18+ I think you’ll find the upstairs lounge is a little nicer of a place to hang out. They have booths and the whole area just feels a little more cozy. If you can find your house on the gigantic wall map, they’ll let you mark it with a shiny star sticker. A fun game after a few half priced bottles of wine. :)
