4th and Olive Restaurant - Long Beach

We came to 4th and Olive on the recommendation of a family member.

Eh- The bacon is not as good as it was when they openedNot as thick of a cut- definitely something you could cook at home now.

The last night of the World Series. "Shall we have those special, superb $5 burgers one last time?" "We could invite our sweet televisionless sports

Their homemade sausages are great. Also liked the dressing on the Little Gem salad

Good overall but they appeared shortstaffed. There was no hosthostess to greet us as we came in so we stood there looking around for a few minutes. Then we were seated and no one came to get our drink order for several minutes. Then the first time we saw our server she just asked if we were ready to order everything. Our server was pleasant but clearly overstretched having to serve or so tables at once. However, the food was very good and wellpresented. Had the duck lover mouse and steak tartare to start. Entrees were the Coq au Riesling and Pork Chop. Both cooked very well. Great wine list as well. This place has potential if they can get the service part right. Would definitely go back and give it another chance
