We went to Q2 Bistro an Asian restaurant at Polaris for the first time last Friday. We wondered if Q2 Bistro had just been open a couple of months… business was not booming Friday night but it was about 8:00. Maybe Q2 Bistro had an early dinner crowd.
No grand opening signs… so we guessed Q2 Bistro had been open three months or more… I guess not according to the Columbus Dispatch, Q2 had their first Anniversary in January 2008. I read that in the Columbus Dispatch “Cantonese cuisine an old-school treat” after eating at Q2.
Q1 is not all Cantonese. I like Cantonese although I started out eating just Hunan and Szechuan food, when I fell in love with Chinese food. At Q2 Bistro I had Szechuan Shrimp. It was tasty. I wish I had paid more attention to the ingredients (vegtables) I might have gone with the Hunan version instead. My dish was spicy.
The food was gorgeous, if I was a food blogger there’d be images here. I think my plate was mostly clean before I remembered I could take a photo with my phone. Duh. Or maybe I was hungry. The restaurant is gorgeous. Very simple and contemporary.
How could I not know the restaurant was there almost two years now? I don’t eat “Chinese” food much… and the stretch of Polaris Parkway east of Cleveland Avenue is a stretch I seldom travel. Q2 Asian Bistro is at 472 Polaris Parkway, Westerville, Ohio. Phone is 614-898-1988… in case you want to call ahead for a table… or for carry-out. People came in for carry-out while we were there.
