Q's Bar and Lounge at the Versace Hotel is a nice venue with a lively atmosphere and live music. However, I found the food to be underwhelming and not up to the standards I expected. The music, while enjoyable, was quite loud, making it difficult to have a conversation with friends. We were seated in the corner near the stage, where bright spotlights shone directly into our eyes, which was quite uncomfortable. When we brought this issue up to the manager in a suit, he simply thanked us for our feedback and mentioned that they would take note of it. On a positive note, the band was fantastic! The vocalist was very sociable and engaged well with the crowd, adding to the overall experience. One major drawback was the overpowering scent of perfume in the lobby of the Versace Hotel. It was so strong that we found it hard to stay there even for a moment while waiting for our Uber ride.

Fair Review: The atmosphere is lively and the vibes are generally great—it’s clear the place has a lot of potential depending on what you’re looking for. If you’re planning to grab a drink and have a good conversation, it’s best to go before the live music starts. Once the vocalist is on, the volume becomes quite overwhelming for the size of the venue—so much so that it’s hard to even hear yourself think, let alone talk. For those who enjoy live music, the band puts on a solid performance. While there were a few off-key moments, the energy is there, and overall it’s an enjoyable experience—though perhaps not exceptional. In summary: • If you like it loud and energetic, this place will suit you. • If you’re just out for a casual drink, it’s fine, though the non-alcoholic beverage selection is quite limited. • If you’re hoping for a romantic evening or quality conversation, be prepared to rely on non-verbal communication—it gets very loud! Note: just had to try the food to offer a proper judgement, Fruits are inedible, Edamame was over cooked!

Good quality of music, but small menu (and some pictures differ with reality, as, for example, sushi plate). We will come in the active season. Moctails were good!

One of the best lounges in Dubai for your late night whining and dining. The live music band is just out of this world, the team from Philadelphia is no doubt one of the best the drummer oh my God he just brings in a whole vibe from another planet 😍 the pianist, base guitar and violinist you all are amazing, not forgetting the one singing. The food is great and the portions are large surprisingly. The lounge is quite cozy and rich with a small crowd of amazing individuals You should consider here when you want to chill with the big boys for sure The staff are commendable too in service, it’s busy but the orders don’t take long and that’s a good thing. I recommend highly and will surely be back soon

It had been just under a year since my last visit to Q's Bar. The waitstaff had changed, but their service remained exceptional throughout the night. It was great to see the familiar Vortex band still playing with as much passion as ever, clearly enjoying their time on stage. The audience seemed to connect with the music too, likely sensing the genuine enthusiasm with which the band performed. It was the final night for a guest singer at Q's Bar. His performance energized the crowd, and by the end of the night, everyone was on their feet. For finger food, we ordered crab cakes, a cheese platter, nachos, and beef tartare. Our group thoroughly enjoyed it, which was likely enhanced by the overall enjoyable atmosphere. Note that smoking is permitted inside, and cigars are available on the menu. I recommend making a reservation in advance.
