Restorāns - vīna bārs "4 Pēdas" — Restaurant in Salaspils

Had high hopes for this place after numerous recommendations but sadly, it was a terrible experience.

Waitress looked like she wanted to kill us, barked at us a lot and generally looked like she didn't want to be there. She frequently spoke Russian to me (nothing wrong with speaking Russian) I just don't speak it and generally don't know why she kept doing it (I am a native English speaker who speaks Latvian, maybe my accent?)

Anyway, order was taken forcefully then drinks placed on table. 30 minutes and no food had arrived, but I did see our waitress drive away from the restaurant. After 1 hour we ask another waitress were is our food ( and waitress), 10 mins later our waitress arrives, looks panicked and comes over to tell us food will be 10 mins and drinks will be on them (nice gesture)

Total wait for food was 1.5 hrs, this was for a pizza, 2 main meals and kids meat balls, we believe the waitress above forgot our order. People who came in 20 mins after us were leaving after eating and we still hadn't got our food.

Other just generally strange things -Door to restaurant constantly left open, people sitting in coats as it was creating a draft. -Saw two other waiters have a mini play fight at the bar, was interesting entertainment. -Saw what I assume is an off duty colleague enjoying many a drink and conversation at the bar. -No way to dry hands in bathroom, had to flick the water of my hands. -Mediocre food, I actually enjoyed it but I believe by the time it came I would enjoy eating a shoe I was that hungry. Staff seemed more focused on themselves then customers

I will probably try again one day, maybe this is just a one off, disappointed after so many...

During my recent visit to Restorāns - vīna bārs "4 Pēdas" in Salaspils, I was greeted by a warm and inviting atmosphere that set the tone for the evening. The restaurant's interior exudes a cozy charm, making it an ideal spot for both intimate dinners and gatherings with friends. The menu offers a diverse selection, catering to various tastes. I opted for the grilled octopus. The octopus was tender and complemented by a medley of fresh vegetables. Additionally, the wine list is impressive, featuring a curated selection that pairs well with the menu offerings. Service was attentive without being intrusive. The staff demonstrated a good understanding of the menu and provided thoughtful recommendations, enhancing the dining experience. In terms of value, the pricing aligns with the quality of food and service provided. Portion sizes are generous, ensuring a satisfying meal. However, I would rate Restorāns - vīna bārs "4 Pēdas" a 4 out of 5 rather than a perfect score. While the overall experience was positive, there were minor aspects that could be improved. For instance, the waiting time for the dishes was slightly longer than expected, even though the restaurant wasn’t fully booked. Additionally, while the menu was diverse, a few dishes seemed slightly overpriced compared to similar offerings elsewhere. These small drawbacks didn’t detract significantly from my visit, but they leave some room for improvement. Overall, "4 Pēdas" is a wonderful place with great potential, and I look forward to seeing how it...

Heard many years ago good reviews by locals. I was under the assumption it was a nice restaurant. I was pretty let down by the state of the establishment as well as the atmosphere. Ordered steak and beef in black pepper sauce was pretty good, but the sides seemed like a very lazy afterthought. Cheap bitter salad with few drops of dressing. My pavlova cake had a few bits that tasted like the fridge. Garlick bread was way too oily. Table we got had stained tablecloth from the couple before us. Menus look old and outdated and the vibe of the restaurant as well. Waitresses were friendly but did not take away dirty dishes and started to rearrange tables 1.5h before closing time. That was very loud, dragged chairs around for more than 5 min and it seemed so...
