    Crown Wedge Salad

    Walking in everything is clean with plenty of seating. It's been a while since we've been in so we felt it was time to come back . We enjoyed it the last time and we loved it this time. Oscar is wonderful and attentive to your needs. Food comes out hot and fresh. Love the fusion of flavors. We definitely want to come back to try some other things as unfortunately our stomachs filled up with the 2 awesome dishes! This is a must if you are in the area and hungry.

    Just a quick note food good as always, my husband and I both had different Salmon dishes. I also had 2) Don Q Margaritas. Service great, Dayana was friendly and informative. But everyone was nice and looking out for each other's tables. My one complaint, the napkins. For a nice place they were so expensive and didn't hold up well. I would love to see cloth napkins. The bathroom was clean and I still love the decor of the place.

    We have enjoyed Don Q's menu since they were FAAAAR from downtown and we have always loved their food. This was our first visit to the downtown location and it did NOT disappoint. We had a featured menu special which is a 4 course meal for $45 which my husband and I shared - this worked out well. Neither one of us was over stuffed and we got to share every item on the special. We chose a salad, then asada fries, followed by the shrimp enchiladas and for dessert we didn't really have a choice because they only had flan left. Everything was delicious and we will return.

    *Visited on a Saturday night with a group of 4 I first want to say that the staff is incredibly kind and very attentive. This was our first time visiting Mr. Q, and safe to say that we were impressed and loved our dinner experience. The shop is quite spacious and right in the heart of downtown! You can see Atascadero's beautiful City Hall from here, and at nice it's very pretty with the lit trees. OKAY THE FOOD: * I had gotten the Don Q Steak Enchiladas and my GOSH were they tasty. It came with rice and beans, and was incredibly filling. * My partner had gotten their 3 or 4 (i totally forgot) course dinner set, which included soup and/or salad, an entree, and a dessert! I'd definitely give this restaurant a try as they are locally owned and have amazing staff members!

    What a great restaurant. I was confused by their mkting: logo, name and title - but what fantastic Latin Fusion restaurant!! The restaurant says its California Fusion but more correctly it is Latin Fusion. The flavors of their Latin foods ( enchiladas, Sopas, Chili Relleno) is superb. Inside decor is beautiful, but it's of New York panoramas vice Latin city panoramas. I had a classic margarita that was spot on. The Poblano soup was spectacular - I'd like an option to add spices. For appetizer we had Black and White Molletes which were flavorful- a must. For dinner I had Asombroso Sopes with Asada meat. It was tender and flavorful with all the sauces. Service was one of the best I've had - prompt and attentive. Ashley was charming and Oscar was informative. Besides comments above I have two suggestions: 1- with the upscale vibe and food I'd use cloth napkins vice paper. 2- the cushions on the seats was thin making then hard. Overall a must visit restaurant. I plan on making it a frequent stop. I look forward to trying the Enchalades and Steaks.

    Vegetarian chile relleno so tasty!

    What an amazing New Years Eve Friends Reunion dinner. The ambience, food and friendly staff was beyond expectation. All dozen plus in our party raved about the food presentation and taste. Great prices too.

    I've ordered from here on DoorDash a few times and been blown away by their gluten free pasta. finally went in to check it out, everyone's meal was very obviously put together with so much love and thought. The menu is to die for and service out of this world! I wouldn't haven't wandered in here because the decor is more that of a nail salon & not very inviting, but you'd be stupid to not try the food!

    It's been a while since I've been to Mr. Qs and nothing has changed, thankfully. The food is still absolutely amazing even today when I ordered it to go versus sitting down and dining in. The gentleman that took my order over the phone and helped me when I got there was so friendly and welcoming. I can't say enough about this place. I always recommend it to everyone in the area is their food and service is just wonderful.

    Special Chili Relleno, sauce was amazing

    Fantastic food and service, will definitely be back in the future, prices reasonable and portions very good.

    Don Q Steak enchiladas
    Leo B.

    Went to enjoy a dinner of great flavors and we were not disappointed! The flavors of the sauces make their Mexican cuisine unique. The Mr.Q steak enchiladas are my favorite. The shrimp enchiladas are also amazing! We often bring in our own wine but this time we enjoyed a Margarita and a beer. Nice views of the downtown Atascadero City Hall and Sunken Garden. The service was attentive and pleasant as usual. We will be back again!

The smoked chicken wings (Alitas) were another surprise hit -- crispy, smoky, juicy, and somehow NOT fried. You can really taste the attention to detail in every bite. We also tried salads, the Señor Lomo (filet), and desserts, and every single dish impressed us. The chef here is a rock star. You can feel the passion and originality throughout the entire menu.

The environment was spacious. A little loud near a large table of men but we could still hear one on other.

We originally made our reservation for 7:30 p.m.... we then decided we wanted to perhaps change it to 6:30. We called ahead and hopes that they could accommodate us. They said they couldn't promise anything but they would try. We showed up around 6:15. And they sat us down around 6:35. We had a beautiful window seat overlooking the ocean and had a perfect view of the sunset. I forgot our server's name but he was amazing. This place sounds fancy and bougie but it's really not. The food might be, but the vibe is not. There's no dress code. Everything we ordered was soooo tasty and delicious! We ordered fish and chips, baked clams, a wedge salad, and seafood pasta. For drinks we had two mocktails that were just okay. We also got a couple of flour tortillas with some cinnamon butter and a salsa trio. Our server suggested we spread butter inside the tortilla and drizzle our favorite salsa inside. So good. After dinner we decided to walk around the restaurant and appreciate the views.

It's one of those things where you don't know what you want but every menu all looks the same. We finally tried it out for dinner after a weekend in the wine country. The restaurant is right in the heart of downtown SLO next to the park and riverwalk. We had an early reservation at 6 on a Saturday and let me say the place was packed. The outside patio was completely full which was nice to see. Checking in was easy with the hostess. All was sweet and made it fast and simply and we were seated right away without having to wait for the whole party to arrive. Menu wise, a bit of everything but they specialized in paella's. And that was had. Our waitress Kaitlin was the sweetest. Right from the start, she was a major doll. Made sure we were taken care of throughout the whole dining experience. Started off with a bottle of red for the table. A good selections from their menu. Then a few small shared plates for the table. An order of the bacon wrapped dates, Brussels sprouts, Peruvian shrimp ceviche and the gambas al ajillo. First off the dates, very tasty with salty and sweet. A good bite size with about 6 piece. Then the ceviche, nice chunks of shrimp with all the trimming. Cucumber, red onions, tomatoes , avocado, cilantro and chips. Then you have the sprouts which is pretty self explanatory. Roasted to a nice crisp with golden raisins and almonds. Pretty decent and delicious. Lastly the gambas, sautéed shrimp in paprika garlic and white wine sauce with a Parmesan slice of sourdough bread. Everything was delicious and a good start to an amazing meal. I do recommend the starters. For our entree, even though we started off with loads of the shared plates. The mains all looked amazing. Clearly we had to have the paella which they're known for. There were couple options in them but we opted for the mix which was a combination of the seafood and meat paella. Let me say it was massive and clearly more than enough for four of us. The nice big chunks of seafood and meat which they did not skimp on. The flavors and the whole combination of everything together, chefs kiss. It was pretty massive as well. Of course we couldn't just stop there, we also had the lamb chops with frites. Cooked perfectly and very tasty. The hanger steak with chimichurri sauce accompanied by roasted potatoes and sautéed broccolini. That dish was excellent and steak was cooked perfectly. Lastly, I believe it was one of their specials the sea bass. A nice thick and flaky piece of fish on top of a red sauce of tomatoes, olives. The flavor was excellent and worth it. The food was excellent and it was a surprise when there were leftovers. We may have over done it with the extra entrees after seeing the massive platter of paella. But every dish was excellent and worth it. The service was great with everyone involved. Friendly staff and excellent customer service. The food and wine were great. The whole dining experience was top notch and greatly enjoyed. We will definitely be back. At least we know about the paella now...lol... A must and highly recommend. Too full to even looked at the dessert menu.

After checking out around half a dozen options, we decided on Luna red as the ambiance looked amazing and the menu had options for all the picky eaters in our group. We got seated outdoors and they had sufficient number of patio umbrellas to shelter us from the afternoon sun. The outdoors was really beautiful, they had plenty of greenery and it was like a tropical paradise. We got a lot of appetizers to share, they have options to order 4, 6 or 10 tacos. We got 10 start off with. I personally got a paella as it has been forever since I had it. *brussel sprouts- 4.5/5- one of the better versions of brussel sprouts I have had in a while, they were beautifully roasted, they retained their character but at the same time were delicious instead of tasting too healthy. *fingerling potatoes-4.5/5- potatoes tend to be tasty any which way they are cooked. The standout in this version was the finger licking sauce it was doused in. *paella- 4.5/5- I got the chicken paella. It came with a soft jammy egg. The dish had 75% protein and about 25% rice. The rice at the bottom was nicely crisped up. The chicken was in large chunks but surprisingly non funky and wonderfully flavored. I stole some of the sauce from the tacos to amp up this dish further. 4.5 for the food, rounding up for the good vibes and great ambiance!
