   We are part time residents of Hilton Head Island. Took my wife for our 46st Wedding Anniversary to CQ's for the the first time there. The food pricing was a bit over the top but the food quality was good. We had a new waitress that was very green regarding service but she was nice and tried hard to please us. However for a well established restaurant in an exclusive part of Sea Pines the seating (chairs) was terrible. The chairs were extremely uncomfortable and it was not just our chairs they were all throughout the restaurant. The air-conditioning was also not working very well observing buckets on the floor with leaking condensation from the air system. In fact we observed two different parties that left their tables immediately and sat in the bar area in different types of seating. It's a shame that on your special evening with your special partner we had a bad experience. We spend a lot of funds on restaurants on a weekly basis and this one unfortunately will not have a repeat customer.

   It was my birthday & CQ’s was absolutely phenomenal! The food was spectacular from appetizers to dessert, incredibly delicious! Our 1st time there, but will definitely be back & CQ’s was the highlight of our trip! Also all the staff was stupendous but our waitress “May” was just amazing! So charming, beyond helpful & made our visit a true pleasure! AAAAA+++++

   Made us feel like not liking a fillet was our fault … Tough to cut, very chewy, & rare in the middle.

   We came to enjoy a quite dinner for two and we were seated down stairs with families and children and it was so loud! They did ask us if we wanted to move and we should have! I’m not sure why you would seat a couple in the family area? Food is always great!

    Food was excellent! But there was an issue getting it out to us. Others around us ordered later but got their food before us. When food finally arrived, we needed to return one of the plates because the mashed potatoes were cold. The restaurant manager comped us a dessert and a lemonade. Overall experience was great and we’d eat there again.

    We took our family here while on vacation. The service was extremely slow and our server never even let us know what was going on. We had a child in our party which made it tough. The food was fine, but a little pricey.

    My almond crusted trout was delicious. Mussels were yummy. My issue is that kids over 7 must share or purchase full price entree. My 12 yr old grandson wanted beef - our only option was a $48 filet.

    The service was great. The restaurant however is in serious need of major repair. Looking at the menu and the price point you’d expect the restaurant to be beautiful and maintained. It is not, and it’s not because it’s a historic building. The seat of my booth for instance had zero cushion left and the leather had completely deteriorated. Not acceptable when our dinner for 4 was $400+. Food was pretty good, not worth the price though, especially when the dining room is a wreck.

    CQ's is one of our favorite spots on the island. My wife and I have been frequenting the restaurant for 45+ years. We're down on HHI 4-5 weeks each year. CQ's was my mother-in-law's favorite HHI restaurant and it has always been in our top 3. I hesitate to give the restaurant a 4+ for last night's dinner; everyone can be off stride just a bit from time to time. Still, you expect the absolute best from CQ's and we only got "rather good." My wife ordered a Mojitos, but the bar had no mint--not really acceptable. Our food was the usual spot-on, but service was somewhat inattentive. Had I been offered a second glass of wine, I'd quickly have said "Yes," but I ate the last third of my dinner with an empty glass--again, not something you'd expect at CQ's. I suspect that staffing is an issue coming out of the pandemic and so, we won't let this last visit affect our decision in a few months when we're back on the Island. Still, when one spends $150 (counting tip) for dinner for 2, I think one has the right to expect excellence.

    CQ'sResponded on June 24, 2022Hi Tom. Thank you so much for dining with us and taking the time to give us your feedback. I'm sharing your message with our team in hopes that we can exceed your expectations on your next visit to CQ's. We appreciate your continued support over the years! We hope to see you again on your next visit to the Island.
