I've been here for brunch only, and was not disappointed! The menu is focused and has some lovely options that are unique! I went with a small group of friends, and the waiter "put up" with us in a respectful way, but didn't go out of his way to be overtly nice. Much of the art on the wall for... More

Fabulous three-course meal with delicious wine pairings for $40. Delightful service. Could not have asked for a better evening. Highly recommend.

Q's is located in the Hotel Boulderado. I was staying at the hotel on a business trip. The first few nights I ate at various places on Pearl Street (the heart of Boulder, shopping and dining options galore). I finally decided to "stay in" and eat at the restaurant in the hotel. I was not disappointed. The food was actually... More

Foodies unite and go to Q's restaurant. Eat the Arancini Caprese and the Rocky Jr chicken Breast and prepare for a food coma to follow. The service at Q's was excellent even with our waitress going through training. The atmosphere felt upscale the whole time, and the food matched the experience. I went to this restaurant to treat my consultants... More

We had heard many nice things about Q's so while at a business gathering with colleagues from around the country, we chose this restaurant for one of our meals. Readers should be aware, by the way, that there are a huge number of fine restaurants in Boulder, so we had numerous other choices. Those in our party who ordered from... More

Eight of came to dinner and not a one of us was disappointed. The wait staff was attentive without being overbearing and most helpful in answering questions about the menu. The salads were great but when the entrées arrived our tastebuds danced. We each thought what we had was the best and insisted that everyone else taste it. I'll be... More

We dined here with high expectations. Although some dishes were pretty good, the fact that the tables around us had not been bussed prior to our visit or during our visit was a little distracting. The trout was very good. The Brussels sprouts and bacon in brown better was quite good. But it was hard to ignore the dirty tables... More

I decided on Q's because of the reviews, I could see the potential for something more, but not on my trip. Drove from Longmont to Boulder for lunch and was seated quickly, by four unclean tables next to us. Over the next hour, as people left, the unclean tables grew to eleven. NOT fine dining by any definition I have... More

If you want a great experience for fine dining look no further than Q's restaurant. From the moment you walk in you are greeted immediately by the open attraction and ambience of the restaurant. The service is impeccable from the hostess to the waiters to the Pastry chef (more on that later). Went with a couple of girlfriends for a... More
