Over the past 18 years, Q4 Ristorante by Quattro has earned its standing as Vancouver’s original new Italian restaurant. Now, the restaurant has begun a delicious new chapter in its story, with the opening of its gorgeous 200-seat location on West Broadway, a relocation of the original West 4th room which is now closed.
As well as the polished design of the room — led by Karen Bohne of Moeski Consulting Inc. — guests will love the buzzy bar, the sleek private wine room which seats up to 25 people, plus the West Side’s most exclusive private dining room, formerly the Lumiere space, set to open later this summer.
Also sure to gain a fast following is weekend brunch: a mouth-watering array of well-priced dishes perfect for any occasion (or for no occasion at all). Think frittata layered with pancetta, cipollini onions and portabello mushrooms for just $9; or lobster and avocado eggs benny for $16.
Overseeing the entire roster of beautifully executed dishes — which also includes dinner nightly and lunch from Monday to Friday — is Q4 Restaurant Group Executive Chef, Bradford Ellis. Now in his 12th year with Q4 Restaurant Group, Ellis has created a menu that includes Q4 classics while also offering a fresh, regional spin on Italian. He relishes the opportunity to ensure excellence in both kitchens at the new location, which will service the restaurant and the wine bar, as well as Q4 Catering and a new retail packaged food division for the company.
Best of all, for fans of Q4, both old and new, the wait is over. Buon appetito!
About Q4 Restaurant Group
Over a decade and a half, Q4 Ristorante by Quattro, has established itself as Vancouver’s original new Italian restaurant. In 2009 longtime proprietor, Patrick Corsi, joined forces with a new partner, noted real estate developer and entrepreneur, Alex B. Tsakumis, and one year later they opened Q4 al Centro in downtown Vancouver at 780 Richards Street. In May this year, the duo relocated the original Q4 from its iconic West 4th location to bustling West Broadway. All along, Q4 Catering has quietly gained a reputation amongst Vancouver’s most discerning clientele as an elite catering company.
