Chef Q was privileged to be a part of the phenomenal Echo & Rig Steakhouse launching team, and served as their Exec. Chef. In October, 2019, opportunity knocked at Chef’s door to launch his own restaurant in Roseville, CA. And of course, he answered the door with open arms to finally design an eating place that is reflective of his southern roots while embracing his love of California’s fresh ingredients.
Q1227 Restaurant, is affectionately named after Chef’s birthday, which is December 27. Q1227, is a chef driven restaurant in the beautiful city of Roseville, CA. Our menu inspiration pulls from Chef’s love of the ‘farm to fork’ industry combined with the comfort food of his childhood, hence is why we call our cuisine, “modern comfort".
