They overcharge you several times..... The food was pretty good, but it did not warrent at $350 dinner bill - I was charged three times for dinner that night by the server - obviously a mistake, and it was eventually resolved after several hours of phone calls between the restaurant, my bank and the hotel. Absolutely a nightmare - I wouldn't step foot in there again.

Wonderful food and service. Went on a recent (rare) rainy afternoon in Boulder with a friend and enjoyed a nice, deliciously, leisurely lunch on the porch with Matthew as our server. He was extremely charming and attentive, offering honest advice and opinions when asked. This kid knew his stuff - both on the food menu and the wine list. Our lunch was delicious - we both started with the clam chowder with herbed drop biscuits - creamy and perfectly seasoned. My friend had the lamb sandwich served with a side salad. She gobbled it up, while I devoured the grilled smoked trout, served over an artichoke & potato "hash". Simply delicious.

Romatic, contemporary atmosphere, excellent food. On the numerous visits I have made to Boulder, I always go to Q's, or the Corner Bar (which is served by the same kitchen and chef as Q's) for either B/L/D. I have always been pleased with my experience at either location. Q's has a beautiful enclosed patio that is great for people watching and on a snowy winter day is a delightful place to sit and watch the snow fall! If I go for dinner I always do the price fixed menu and I am always pleased with the results! I've had nothing but great service every time, though I would expect the staff to have a little better wine knowledge than I've experienced. But if you know your wines, the list is varied in styles and price. The clam chowder is delicious as is most everything I've had on the menu. The venison, when on the menu, is always my fav! Creative food combinations with well balanced flavors! It's not the cheapest place in town, but the food is worth the price. I always leave full and satisfied! Take your time and enjoy the experience!

WOW!!!!. I grew up in the Bay area. I really feel like I know what truly great food, wine and service is. I have traveled to the metro area for some years now and have enjoyed my fare share of what Colorado has to offer. I was recently stayed in boulder and dined again at Q's on a weekend night. The vibe was upbeat but I still felt warm and cozy. I can?t explain enough how fantastic this place really is. The service is amazing! Personable, attentive, knowledgeable and efficient. They are friendly but not interfering. The food is always astounding. Last time I dined at Q's, I had the foie gras as usual to start off then moved on to some very fresh monkfish. I think the monkfish was a special. I have also taken a few clients to happy hour at Q's and had a really fun time and a great deal. The bartender had a fun attitude that was only matched with his personality and knowledge of liquor and wine he is a great bartener a true converstionalist. I cant wait to entertain my guest again at Q's. I hope that you all take this to heart and try this gem of a restaurant

Overrated?. We enjoyed the friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere, but the food leaves something to be desired. I am not sure how Q's had previously achieved a 9.3 overall rating on Citysearch, except perhaps that this is yet another case where diners in cities that have less culinary talent than bigger, and mainly coastal, cities, set their bar lower because they generally do not experience truly great food. We had the chef's 5-course tasting menu, along with wine pairings; the first 2 courses were seafood, and this is really where quality fell short. With today's technology for keeping seafood fresh and transporting it quickly, there is no excuse for serving "fishy" tasting or poorly prepared seafood, particularly in a restaurant that claims to be of such high caliber. Of the remaining courses, the lamb shanks were probably the best, which you might expect from a restaurant located in Colorado. (The wine pairings were also good.) In all, if you order the right things, it's not a bad choice if you're in hanging around in Boulder, but there are better options out there.
