As the name suggests, the Q offers both dining and clubbing experiences. The restaurant has a full lunch and dinner menu and is open for dining seven days a week. If you’ve come to dance, then stick around until after 9 p.m. when the walls start to pulse to the beat of the DJ music. The Q has two levels of dance floors, the second being on the open roof. You can mingle as well as dance with a different crowd as you move from floor to floor. Both floors have full bars serving cocktails, signature martinis, microbrewery beer and an extensive wine list. The Q features DJ music every Wednesday through Saturday from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m.
