No. 4 Restaurant Bar - St. John's

This place is so cozy! We absolutely love the drinks, and the bartenders are true professionals. The staff is incredibly friendly, making our evenings here delightful. The food is also outstanding! We always have a fantastic time at No.4.

I absolutely love this restaurant! The food and drinks are outstanding, but unfortunately, the communication leaves a lot to be desired. We called to inquire about a reservation for the same night. While I understand they were fully booked—which is completely reasonable—they suggested we come down anyway, offering to seat us at the bar or on the patio. We live just a short five-minute drive away, so we went there, only to be told that they couldn't seat us. The bar had quite a few empty seats, and there was also available space on the patio. Once again, the food and drinks are fantastic, but I wouldn't rely on the staff for clear communication.

The tuna tartare was served with fresh sourdough and arugula, beautifully garnished with edible flowers. The cheese board was generous and perfect for sharing, and we were lucky enough to have the chef come out to describe each cheese when he had a moment. The steamed mussels were a standout, featuring a delightful combination of corn and crispy, fatty bacon that complemented the well-seasoned mussels perfectly. The sweetness of the corn balanced the savory flavors, while the kalbi's sweet brown sugar brought the dish to another level. The seasoning was incredibly rich and robust, topped with fresh herbs that rounded out the broth beautifully. An easy 11/10! Lastly, the scallop crudo was a masterpiece—delicate, clean, and visually stunning. I would savor this dish every day if I could. The raw, fresh scallops paired with an amazing honey and chili oil were the highlight of the meal. Each ingredient truly shone on the plate, and I highly recommend giving it a try. I also asked the wonderful bartender Tristan for a cocktail recommendation and ended up with the ‘Nude Beach.’ It was perfectly balanced and had a decadent color. Enjoy it slowly and remember to tip well; your money supports some incredibly humble and passionate people.

I really liked the decor and architectural details. I felt like I had stepped back in time. The food was really good. Everything was fresh and you could taste all the ingredients. I highly recommend!

First time there and will definitely go again. Portions were good. Food was delicious and the bartender, Danny, is a true artisan at his craft. The decor is beautiful and cozy. A great addition to the St. John's food and bar scene!
