About Q Terrace Restaurant and Bar
Beyond their size, small businesses are defined by their spirit. And at the helm are their intrepid founders—scrappy, ambitious, and resilient. They invent and build things despite uncertainty, because it’s what drives them. Their risks lead to innovation that moves the world forward. And we need them.
We made a reservation in advance and from the very first minute everything felt smooth and well organized. When we arrived, we were offered a choice between indoor seating and the veranda. We chose the veranda and it turned out to be the perfect decision. The sunset was beautiful, the weather was amazing, and the whole atmosphere felt relaxed yet elegant. One small detail that immediately caught my attention was the swivel chairs. It may sound minor, but not having to constantly move your chair every time you stand up makes a difference. It is those thoughtful touches that show attention to comfort. Our waiter, Kevin, was outstanding. He was attentive without being intrusive and gave detailed, subtle explanations about each dish. The level of service was truly high. We ordered wine, and Kevin suggested trying one of their cocktails. The cocktail was excellent, so much so that I ended up having more than five of them throughout the evening. We tried a variety of dishes from the menu and everything was fantastic. The flavors were balanced, the presentation was beautiful, and you could clearly see the chefs know exactly what they are doing. It was my girlfriend’s birthday, so we were celebrating and sharing every dish between us. After each course, Kevin replaced all our plates, which is something not every restaurant does. These small details consistently showed a very high standard of service. By the end of the evening, after enjoying many different dishes, we finished with tiramisu, and it was absolutely delicious. A perfect ending to the dinner. As we were leaving, the restaurant’s director personally came to say goodbye. We had a very pleasant conversation, and she was incredibly kind. With permission from the chef, we were even allowed to step to the entrance of the kitchen. It was large, spacious, and very clean. As a former chef myself, I could immediately see the professionalism, structure, and deep commitment to quality and service. This is definitely a restaurant you want to come back to, and I absolutely will. I also noticed they have a great selection of draft beer, so we will be returning very soon to explore more of the menu and enjoy another evening there.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the staff and the owner of this establishment for such a warm welcome and outstanding service. The professionalism of the entire team truly deserves recognition — everything is organized at the highest level, in a beautiful and уютная atmosphere. In my opinion, it is very difficult to find another restaurant of this caliber in this area. The portions are generous, the presentation is elegant, and most importantly, the food is consistently delicious. As a regular guest, I have never witnessed or experienced any unpleasant situations or dissatisfaction from other visitors. The atmosphere is refined, and the clientele is respectful and pleasant. I also had the pleasure of meeting the owner personally. She is a competent, kind, and attentive professional who clearly knows her business and truly cares about her guests. She is always willing to assist with menu choices and address any questions or concerns. The entire staff is equally professional, friendly, and attentive. It is especially wonderful that on certain evenings there is live music or a singer performing, which creates a special ambiance and makes each visit even more memorable. It was also lovely to see Russian-speaking guests here — this place truly brings people together through its warmth and hospitality. I highly recommend this restaurant and look forward to visiting again.
Loved this place! The food was amazing — the chicken Kyiv was juicy and flavorful, the cabbage rolls tasted just like homemade, and the filet mignon was absolutely incredible, perfectly cooked and so tender. The syrniki for dessert were the perfect sweet finish. The service was friendly and attentive, and the whole atmosphere felt cozy and welcoming. Definitely coming back and would recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great meal!
Plans fell through on Thanksgiving and wanted to have a nice relaxing meal with my family. We headed to Q Terrace in Laguna Beach and it was awesome. The chef carved up complimentary turkey that was just amazing and served to everyone who came. They were super busy and the service was slow but they really worked hard and made it special. Love this place and will keep coming back! I had the Filet Mignon with green mashed potato’s – just wow! My wife had Chilean Sea Bass and I can tell you I was jealous! It was cooked to perfection and she let me share a bite. Kids had pasta and a Chicken Kiev and they loved it! Wasn’t a traditional Thanksgiving this year but we’re super grateful that they were open and took such good care of us. Love this place!
Went in for a family diner. Do not regret any minute nor any spent cent. Exceptional service, extremely friendly staff. Food is above expectations, fresh and very tasty. Now this is Huge: For my work I happen to visit many commercial kitchens but this one is SO Clean that I rarely see if any. If the staff is so disciplined and keeps it so clean the food is definitely safe there. All the staff and owner are very friendly and really caring for their guests. Apple strudel reminded me the one I had in Europe: tender, not too sweet and very tasteful.
