Q4 opened in 1994 to unanimous critical acclaim and the awards continue. Year after year being recognized with an Award of Excellence from Wine Spectator. Located in the heart of Kitsilano, Q4 embraces the senses with a dazzling array of colour and texture. Crimson washed walls, rustic wrought iron chandeliers and candlelight cast a glow upon rich mahogany tables and a beautifully hand painted floor. The restaurant offers large round tables for gathering as well as secluded nooks for quiet romantic evenings. To some the best seat in the house is at the bar and, during summer months, the lush garden patio is a Vancouver favorite.
At the heart of the Q4 experience is the exceptional cuisine from Central Italy prepared by executive chef, Bradford Ellis. A visit to Q4 isn't complete without an antipasto platter made for sharing. Other menu highlights are Cornish game hen; pistachio crusted sablefish; marinated bocconcini wrapped in prosciutto and radicchio, served with cherry vinaigrette; and the legendary spaghetti Q4.
