★★★★★

The Unicorn is a well known name. More so with the 8th Ave location but this one on 4th st is also deserving to be recognized. The service was quick, polite and prompt. The atmosphere is cozy and rustic. I can only imagine it will be even better during Stampede. I left out a star and gave it 4 out of 5 stars for Food. So many times when ordering a steak we get asked "How will you like that" and a high percentage of people reply with a "Medium Rare Please" Me too! I like a medium rare (130º)steak but when it shows up Medium (140º) it is a little disappointing, but I am being picky I know, but, I was asked :-) The fries were perfection! light and crispy and not over salted. All-in-all I would recommend The Unicorn, very good value, you get good portions for a fare price, given how expensive food is these days.

Suggested by a good friend, we grabbed lunch here, and I'm glad we did. But get there fast...it can do up. It's got a great warm atmosphere, delicious food and friendly service. If you're a dart enthusiast, they have that too. Enjoy!

4-4.5 overall. Unexpected and unassuming spot that has great deals and food offerings. Their wings may possibly the highlight so far mixed with wings night - very worthwhile. No take out though and dine in only. Lots of tvs and lots of seats. Rather clean inside as well. They have a good happy hour menu. Their ceasars are also really good and their own unicorn one is a good twist. Good pubby place to go to.
