107 Fourth Avenue Wine Bar & Café — Restaurant in Ottawa

Yesterday we were looking for a nice pub with a nice patio in Glebe for dinner, we ended up going to 4th. Avenue Wine Bar & Cafe. What a huge mistake!!!!!! Until I asked to the waitress our table didn't get cleaned. Surrounding was really bad, they didn't even care to make it nice and clean. We were hungry so we got our drinks and ordered bread and oil. 35 minutes later I had to go inside to remind her about the bread. She stopped talking to the guy at the bar and said "it won't take too long"; Well after 35 minutes waiting you just want to hear "I am sorry I forgot, I will bring it over right away. 10 minutes after we finally got the bread (just the bread), but the waitress asked us "didn't you get your oil yet?" and went back inside to bring oil. After waiting that long you're hoping at least fresh warm bread, but no chance getting it. We ordered salad and meatballs so we could share, there were only 3 slices of zuchini and top of them three meatballs on the plate. When we finished our meal, we were glad that it was over, the waitress I guess heard our conversation that we weren't happy with the service from A to Z, she didn't charge us the bread ($3) lucky us.... But when she was clearing the table she dropped the knife on me, I opened my legs and it fell to the ground. My boyfriend was telling me that how lucky I was, we didn't eat steak. Over all, we were glad that it wasn't a special occasion for us, otherwise service and the food would have definitely ruined it for us. Definitely next time "NO WAY" for us! If you don't like pricey, poor service, not so good food don't go!!!! I don't even want to...

Disappointed in the service! We sat outside and menus arrived. Drinks were ordered and delivered... so far, so good. Drink glasses go empty and no one shows up. After about 10 minutes, I had to go in and tell them I want to order and when I got to the bar, all the servers were chatting among themselves. After I got one's attention, a server comes out a few minutes later. We order a new round of drinks and asked about the charcuterie board. She had absolutely no interest in answering. She held her hand and made a little circle to indicate portion size and could NOT contribute any recommendations or explain what else accompanied the board once you selected either cheese or cold cuts! The second server saved the day and made this rating a 3-star instead of one! Management needs to be aware of this because there are places that compete for my business dollar...and I still left a 15% tip to wife's...

Very cool little place. Sort of out of the way from the main street so it has a bit of intrigue to it. The decor is cool, with a combination of cozy living room and robots? (you'll see if you go). Plus the music selection was perfect for the mood. The wine list is well rounded with some great cocktails and liquors if you're not big on wine (I recommend the pink lemon spritzer). The menu is comprised of a number of staples as well as other dishes that change depending on available produce. I think the prices of some menu items are a bit high, but I got the charcuterie and it was a great value for the portions and quality. All of that being said, I do find it a bit annoying that they don't seem to have their cafe menu...
