Jane Q

This hotel cafe is trying to be fancy and hip as befits its location just up the street from the Pantages on Hollywood Boulevard, but does not quite rise to its level. The best thing about it is that it is a roomy quite space to talk.

Wonderful food, great service and a perfect and convenient pre theater location.

The waiter gave great advice on drinks and entrees Jane Q had prepared. Appetizers and desserts were outstanding, overall positive experience dining on February 14th, 2020.

I came here to take my boyfriend out for a Valentine’s dinner. I read about Jane Q on Yelp and saw they had a pre fixe Valentine’s dinner. This place is so well done! Beautiful clean lines and great use of the lofty space. The lighting was perfect and romantic. Our server was friendly and attentive. My boyfriend (who rarely sends anything g back) had a flank steak that was over cooked and our server got him a new one and put the overcooked one in a container to take to our dog. Very thoughtful! Everything was delicious except for the raspberry pannacotta, which was pretty bland. After dinner we went upstairs to play pool at the bar/lounge area. Such a cool spot! We will definitely be back.

Very friendly staff. The food was really good.

We have been to Jane Q for lunch so thought it might be too familiar for Valentine's eve: my mistake. Jane Q amped up by creating a softly lit atmosphere, white tablecloths, sparkly lights and the evening sparkle of Hollywood's surrounding lights in the evening glow created a wonderful ambiance. The service is always good and my husband's grilled salmon was a "memorable" experience. I had the $45 3-course special dinner and loved the hazelnut, frisee, pear salad; roasted chicken and refreshing raspberry sorbet with accompanying fresh fruit. Thank you Jane Q for surprising us and giving us a memorable Valentine's eve experience.

Great Happy Hour throughout the dining room. You can order happy hour then at 530 the rest of the menu opens up to fill out your dining options. We love coming here before a show at the Pantages just a quick walk down the hill. We've been here twice before shows and will do it every time!

Good choice for the area; quality food, but pricey. Ambiance is nice and modern. Food is delicious and fresh. Bar offerings at the restaurant could be more comprehensive, but there is a full bar just above at the hotel lobby. Service is attentive but non-obtrusive. A short walk to the Pantages makes it a great pre-show spot.

The staff here are what makes it so pleasant. They are friendly, attentive and most accommodating. I really enjoy the food and the Happy Hour is wonderful.

Nice food, casual atmosphere. Seems more appropriate for breakfast at a hotel than a nice evening out. Walking distance to Pantages so that is convenient. Food was good but nothing stellar.

This restaurant accepted a reservation for my night, and then without letting us know, closed the entire restaurant for filming. The only other option was to eat at the noisy, crowded bar. Don't have open timeslots if you are gonna close your restaurant.

Excellent service. Accommodating and pleasant and helpful. We had our 3 year old grandson with us and the waiter brought food immediately.
So nice!

Excellent meal and service in this restaurant. Ideal for pre theater dining and delicious food and goos portion options.

The food and service we're fantastic! The servers were very friendly and food tasted great!

It was empty which should have sent me away. And yet they were all out of pizza. There was a DJ in the adjoining room which made it impossibly loud. I get the deal about serving shared dishes as soon as they are cooked but they brought a hamburger well before the other mains. The smoked salmon appetizer was very good. Eggplant parm tasteless. But there was no read for the restaurant to be open adjacent to a dance floor.

This was very convenient for a pre-theatre dinner for an event at the Pantages. The menu is short and to the point and the 3 of us really enjoyed our food. The service was good and very welcoming.

Your pretty standard cafe, coffee and pastry place. Although a beautiful setting the food was fine but not fantastic. Service was outstanding and delightful.

Starter was just ok. Pizza for the kids was good. Fries were cold. My husbands steak was poor quality for the price. My mussels were so over cooked they had just about evaporated.

Hotel had v hip aesthetic. We were looking for restaurant near Walk of Fame....in hindsight we should have eaten on the Walk of Fame as it was quite a walk. Service staff looked v surprised that we had made a reservation as it had a v casual vibe and was not necessary....there were lots of free tables. Wasn’t quite what we were expecting from reviews, bit more casual than we had thought, but would definitely be good to eat there if you are staying at hotel. That said, the food was tasty and the staff made a lot of effort to make the evening pleasant.

We were looking for a restaurant near the Pantages. We were dining with two other couples. We saw this place listed and decided to try it. What a wonderful surprise! We made it in time for happy hour. The food was amazing. The wait staff was friendly and efficient. The biggest surprise, the man we were dining with happened to be the architect of this Establishment and hand never eaten there. He was very happy that everything turned out. Would definitely go again.

Great food with a casual experience. Bar area which provides live music on weekends and special events is open to the restaurant below creating a nice after dinner option as well

One of the best meals I’ve had in a long time. We ordered from the DineLA menu. Would definitely recommend the chicken, pork meat balls and salads. The desserts were also fabulous. I will definitely go back for dinner or brunch.

Good pizza, not a good burger. Great gin with blackberry. Not muddled. A bit watered down. Ot was good though.

Wife had a vodka and soda, but if there was vodka in the drink it fooled me.

had the best time at Jane Q, everything was outstanding from service to food & the portions were a great bang for our buck. Can't wait to go back and lounge at the upstairs bar!

I was a bit underwhelmed by this place. We made a reservation to eat there before a show at the Pantages. The salmon rillettes were very different than we thought they would be by the menu description and the beet salad was just okay. I ordered the salmon entree and although it was good, I wondered where the rest of it was. It was literally a 3 inch square piece with some fennel and olives. That is all for $32? My husband got the cheeseburger and added bacon. That was over $20 and came with nothing else.
That being said, the service was great and I think the Happy Hour deals seemed pretty good. I just found this place expensive for what you get, albeit very convenient if you're going to the Pantages.

Great food, great space, great service

Jane Q is a modern restaurant that is part of the Kimpton Hotel. We dined during happy hour which made pricing awesome. 4$ Pinot Noir and 6$ appetizers that were very good. The dinner menu is limited, but the options we tried were really good. I had the salmon with a beet salad. Delicious. Our server was very helpful in making decisions and recommendations that fit our taste and budget. The happy hour is the best deal and highly recommended. Very nice and friendly staff. I would definitely dine here again.

Jason the server was superb!! Theatre pre fixe was great value. Cocktails were very original & tasty

Our favorite place to go before a show at the Pantages.

Enjoyed dinner at Jan Q's prior to a show at the Pantages theater. It's a short walk from the theater so I was able to get good parking at theater lot.

Happy hour and prefix menu's were great. Staff was very attentive and being that this is in a "pet friendly" hotel, we were able to meet some cute puppies between courses.

Flat iron steak was great, garlic knot appetizer was addictive.,....save room for the bread pudding!

I would recommend this restaurant for date night or theater night.

This was a great find and perfect for a pre-theater dinner.

We had dinner here before going to the Pantages. It will now become my go to pre-theatre dinner spot since it's conveniently located a few blocks from the theatre, the food and service was great, and we took advantage of the prix fixe theatre menu, which was a great deal!

Loved the quaint restaurant. It's in the hotel, so you will miss it if you don't know where it's located off Yucca St. We shared the margarita pizza and the cheese board and they were both fantastic. The waiter was attentive and nice. Would recommend to friends and family and would go back!

For younger hipper. It looks more like diner not a restaurant, very cold atmosfer

New York strip for $40 should not be dry.

Appetizer of shrimp and yoghurt made absolutely no sense

Beef carpaccio reminded me of lunch meat

Bone marrow was very bland

Service was lacking

good plates, sausage flatbread, garlic knot, flatiron steak. Was going to the Pantages and they served efficiently as well

Don’t miss their happy hour! The sweet potato, pizza, garlic knots, and salads were all delicious.

Loved it, food, service, ambience!!
Very cool place.

Valentines Day

As a new alternative to a pre-movie meal before heading to the ArcLight Hollywood, Jane Q is a good option. The casual setting with a full & interesting cocktail bar with a menu of lighter fairs is quite nice. However, the meal portions are small and some reinterpreted items (like the truffle calzone) just don’t work. The deserts are plentiful and sweet.
