    Dark, retro horror themed ambiance in the arcade section
    Cecilia A.

    Great place for pizza, metal music, and beers. The service was great, friendly and accommodating. Everyone was incredibly sweet and respectful. They play a lot of metal and rock music, and there are several TV's playing horror themed films. We ordered the garlic knots, a slasher pizza, a rosemary's baby pizza, and enjoyed many of their beers and cocktails. My favorite was the Frankenhooker cocktail and Purple Haze beer. Their IPA's were smooth too. After dinner we went back and played some cool retro arcade games. It is one coin per player per game for those, and there is a pool table in the middle of the arcade section too. I will come back, I absolutely loved this place.

    The vegan pizza--really good!

    STEPH UPDATE: Better than ever. I don't get down here like I used to, which is a shame because it's still so great! A local band that we like was doing a Sunday matinee so that finally got us off our duff to make our way over. I'm happy to report that since my first review 6 years ago, it's only gotten better. I really miss the Dark Art Emporium, but the expansion into that space, adding more seating, arcade games, and a pool table has been better for the pizza biz, I'm sure. The hubby and I shared the Calzone with vegan sausage, garlic and roasted red peppers and it was SO GOOD and so enormous! Calzones are perfect if you need something that's between a slice and a whole pizza, and we thoroughly enjoyed it, along with a salad and beers (of course). You can also still count on vintage horror movies on the tvs and hard music over the sound system. All hail the 4th Horseman!

    Cool spot! If you're into horror flicks and horror in general, this is the spot for you! We had the Slaughterhouse pizza, it was delicious! I normally don't care for overly greasy pizza, but this one was good. Cool vibe, friendly staff and reasonable prices. Three stars given because the table was not wiped down from the previous customer. There were food droppings on the table, we wiped it down ourselves.

    Visited a couple weeks ago, and wow, 5/5 stars. Heard many great things about the food, drink, and atmosphere, and confirmed it to be true. This pizza though.... I forget the name and I *think* it was seasonal, but this was like the best I've ever had. It featured steak, and it was the best flavor combination ever. I'm sure the others are tasty as well, but damn, I hope this is brought back if it's not available. Great brew selection, great food selection, helpful service, and fun atmosphere full of arcade games, films, and decorations. Parking available in the nearby garages, with the first 2 hours free.

    Night of the chicken dead pizza
    Madison W.

    I stumbled upon this restaurant online and had to come try it! The decor is horror themed and really unique. The ambiance is overall really fun! In addition to the decor there are also arcade games throughout the restaurant and they place cult classic films to enjoy with your meal. I came in on a Saturday at noon and they even had a live DJ playing music! The menu is really fun and stays on theme with the names of their pizzas. It was hard to choose which pizza to order because they all sounded so good! I had the night of the chicken dead pizza which was delicious with a thin crust topped with fried chicken. I also had the devils knots, which were garlic knots, although I regret not getting the cheese stuffed knots. If you don't want a whole pizza they also sell pepperoni and cheese pizza by the slice. The workers were very kind and welcoming. This was a great way to spend my Saturday afternoon and I'm already thinking of when I can come back with friends!

    EL PUERCO LOCO

    Had a deliciously evil evening at The 4th Horseman--hands down one of our absolute favorite pizza spots in Southern California. They're always serving up killer pies and epic brews, and last night did not disappoint. Pies we devoured: * Captain Spudling (my ultimate fave ) * El Puerco Loco (a very strong second!) * White Zombie (third, but still legendary) Every crust was perfectly crisp, the toppings were stacked, and the flavors were bold without being over-the-top. You can tell they care about what comes out of that kitchen. Brews on deck: * Moosehead Lager * Purple Haze * Get Toasty -- that dessert porter though... absolute favorite And the service? Always on point. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and totally matches the vibe--welcoming, attentive, and genuinely cool humans who make the whole experience even better. The dark, metal-inspired atmosphere just seals the deal--moody, loud, and unapologetically fun. If you're a pizza-and-beer lover (or just a fellow misfit like me), this is your spot. Killer flavors, great service, solid tap list, and always a good time.

    We smile like serial killers next to creepy dolls & bones. Pizza & beer? Brutally consumed. No survivors. Mwahahaha

    The 4th Horseman in Long Beach, CA, is no ordinary pizzeria, it's a portal to a nightmare realm where horror reigns supreme, and the pizza is the unholy sacrament. Last time I dared cross its threshold, my daughter, at the time, still trapped in the cursed age of under-21, forced us to exile ourselves to the patio, like outcasts banished from the crypt. Such is the merciless law of the night. But now, with her finally 21, we returned like vengeful spirits, eager to penetrate the shadowy interior. And what a descent into madness it was. The atmosphere drips with dread: walls plastered in grotesque horror memorabilia, flickering screens looping classic slasher flicks, and the relentless thunder of death metal pounding through the air like the heartbeat of some ancient evil. It seeps into your bones, forcing your pulse to sync with its savage rhythm. The recent renovations have summoned even more demons, rows of vintage video games beckon from the gloom, including classics that test your mortal reflexes. I, the undefeated Ms. Pac-Man champion (a title I whisper in fear no one will challenge), dominated the cabinets once more, all while the darkness closed in. At the bar, the spectral Emma greeted us with unearthly warmth, friendly, knowledgeable, and armed with pizza prophecies that proved prophetic. She guided us straight to the abyss: Night of the Chicken Dead. This monstrous pie arrives like a resurrected horror icon, parmesan-herb breaded chicken pieces rise from a bed of tomato sauce, scattered with roasted garlic cloves, melted mozzarella, Roma tomatoes, shredded parmesan, and shaved parsley. A final squeeze of fresh lemon drizzles over it like holy water on the damned, cutting through the richness with a citrus slash that awakens the senses. We devoured it in reverent silence, the flavors exploding like a jump-scare you never saw coming, crispy, juicy, garlicky, and utterly addictive. Paired with a few cold brews, including my chosen elixir, the Common Space Dripping Colors hazy IPA, a hazy apparition of juicy peaches, apricots, and fresh-squeezed orange that washes down the carnage in tropical waves, the evening turned into pure, unholy bliss. The service was swift, the vibes sinisterly fun, and the experience left us haunted in the best way possible. If you're brave enough to enter this den of metal, horror, and exceptional pizza, The 4th Horseman won't just feed you, it will possess you. Return if you dare. 4.5/5 screams. Check the bathrooms... if you've got the guts left to try.

    Pizza by the slice: Pastrami on the left could've used more meat, veggie on the right was pretty good

    Heavy metal, horror movies, arcade games, delicious pizza, beer and wine. This is not your average pizzeria. It's probably Long Beach's most unique and one of its kind. I've been here several times now and happy to see that they've expanded the space with what used to be Dark Art Emporium. Instead, they added more tables, a pool table and old arcade games like Mortal Kombat and Street Fighter. Pizzas here are solid, thin crust, loaded with flavorful sauces and toppings. Beware of the Hellfire! I never had pizza so dang spicy! I nearly died. They don't allow refunds and they should have patrons sign a waiver if they order it! For LB Food Scene Week August 2025, they collaborated with Terrible Burger to create the "Terrible Pizza." Seasoned ground beef stuffed into a soft butter-glazed crust topped with mozzarella, cheddar, grilled onions, pickles and Terrible Burger's signature "Doog Sauce." I don't typically go for ground beef but this worked! The pickles gave the pizza a burger feel to it too. They have lots of good beer on tap but just a few wines to choose from: Sauvignon blanc, Cabernet or sangria. Must be 21 and over! Metered street parking.

    They have the best pizza, It's becoming my fav pizza place and love the vibe! Always good and the theme makes it fire! Service is great and 100% recommend to people to come.

    Hello! The 4th Horseman was our first new restaurant of the new year, and about time. We've passed by this local spot in DTLB so many times that it's surprising we hadn't tried it sooner. We went mid-day on New Year's, and while the restaurant was fairly slow, they were still blasting metal over the speakers. It's honestly hard to tell what time of day it is inside since all the light is blocked out. The interior is very dark, but it's filled with cool, spooky decor, and there's a back room with more seating and vintage arcade games, which was a fun surprise. To be honest, I'm not the heavy-metal, hardcore type this place is geared toward, so this will probably be a one-and-done for the sit-down experience. That said, if you do enjoy that aesthetic, I think you'd have a great time here. We'll definitely be back for takeout because the food was very delicious. We had two light, crispy beers and a 16-inch Red Horse pizza. The Red Horse is basically a Hawaiian pizza. It comes with mozzarella, bacon, and pineapple, and it was very good and satisfying. The staff was nice overall, though the gentleman at the front door didn't acknowledge us and just stared when we walked in, which was a little awkward. Our waitress however was very kind, helpful and courteous when it came to explaining the menu to us. She asked for our IDs right away haha which reminds me, this is a strictly 21+ establishment. Overall, I recommend checking out the 4th Horseman if you're in DTLB. Thanks for having us!

    The amazing Frankenhooker! Wanna date?

    The boy has been wanting to go here for quite some time after he saw it on a YouTube video. The reviews, vibe, pizza and beer all sounded good and it was super close to the Midsummer Scream convention at the Long Beach Convention Center so we headed over after the show. The place itself is super cool inside with death metal playing, reminded me of Phantom Carriage Brewery (RIP) a little and of Three Floyd's Brewing in Munster, Indiana. The boy and I were going to play some video games but we were told that very unfortunately, kids aren't allowed inside. I asked about the age restriction and the fellow behind the bar said it was because of the inappropriate horror movies they play (but kids were allowed into the Phantom Carriage and they showed horror movies too). Bummer! They really should change the rule. After all, my son was the one who found this place in the first place! Still, we settled on eating outside and found a spot and grabbed a couple seats. They could use a larger outside area as they were quite busy. We ordered the "Little Sprouts of Horror" (Brussel sprouts, garlic, chili flakes, bacon, parmesan and balsamic reduction) for $12 and it was crazy good. Like, amazing. For our pizza, we ordered the "Death to Piggy" (tomato sauce, mozzarella, bacon, pepperoni, Canadian bacon & sausage) for $24 and it was excellent and I'm a pizza snob. The cheese pull was great and the toppings were delicious. The crust had a good chew to it and had good flavor. The selection of beers on tap were good and they also had cans and cool sodas in a serve yourself fridge. I highly recommend you check out the 4th Horseman and I very much look forward to going back!

    I've been dyinggg to visit the 4th Horseman for quite some time now and I'm so glad I finally stopped by with a friend. This establishment is a cute "horror/goth" themed bar located near Pine ave downtown. They seem to be generally known for their aesthetic and the fact that they specialize in their own pizzas. My friend and I seated ourselves at a table and were told by one of the staff members to scan the QR code that's on the table. The ordering process was so easy as we were able to effortlessly order our pizza and drinks from the table. I liked the no-contact method of ordering (unless you're sitting at the bar top) and the speediness of service. Our order was impressively brought out to us in less than 5 minutes. The pizza itself was good, it tasted almost similar to Costco or Sam's Club pizza. I had ordered an IPA and I believe my friend got a sangria or some sort of wine. The arcade games are also a pretty cool feature. Overall, I had a great experience here and will for sure be back!

    My first time here to meet up with some old friends from high school days and it was the perfect vibe for us. We didn't realize the pizzas were full size so some people ordered a pizza for themselves but ended up sharing since it wasn't a small Personal size. There was a band playing when we arrived but we were able to find a table in the back to sit and eat. You can order at the bar or from your table with a QR code specified for your table. Pizzas were good and they do have vegan options. I had the cheese bread bites which were good but I'd probably opt for a pizza next time.

    Ask the Community - The 4th Horseman

    Is it typically busy on Wednesday nights? I wanted to come in on the 29th for my birthday and was hoping to pull some tables together if it isn't too busy!

    I went on a Sunday around 5pm and it wasn't packed but there were enough free tables to pull together. It depends how many are planning to be there for your party.

    Do they have fountain sodas,or just cans and bottles?

    We always have an extensive selection of commonly found and craft sodas in bottles and cans. We do not offer fountain soda.

    What are the ingredients in the cauliflower crust? I tried calling, and no one answered the phone.

    Do they allow kids here?

    No, it's a bar, 21+ only

    Is there any gluten free options?

    I’m pretty sure they (at least at one point) had a cauliflower crust option.

    Is there a happy hour and, if, so what's "happy"?

    You are. When you get a buck off slices and drafts until 6pm Mon-Fri. Cheers!

    A reviewer mentions they use sourdough crust. Is this true?

    Yup.

    Gluten free crust?

    Yup. Cauliflower crust

    Do you have brunch? Do we have to reserve?

    Do you guys have cauliflower crust?

    They do offer cauliflower crust!

    Do you guys offer gift cards?

    Yup

    Do they have non alcoholic beverages?

    Sodas, waters, teas, and coffee!

    Do they have gluten free pizza?

    As of September 2020, there is a cauliflower crust available by request, it is 12".

    Is this place kid friendly for a baby?

    No. You need to be 21 to enter even if you have an adult with you. The bar/pizza place is mostly for adults who want to go out and chill for some drinks. Anyways, the restroom might creep the kids out! I was creep out myself.

    Is open to any age or only 21 and up?

    21+ only

    Do you sell pizza by the slice and do you offer specials?

    yes each slice is $5.00

    Are there gluten free options?

    As far as pizza? No. You could get some meatballs, although the sauce may have gluten.

    Gluten free pizza option?

    We’re working on it, but not currently.

    Still 21+? We have a baby and would love to come check out this spot!

    As of now yes. Still 21+

    Do you have televisions? Play sports on tv?

    We have a small tv and projector that plays horror movies.
