    We love Selby's! We've been going there for years and have never been disappointed. Last night was no exception! Stand outs: Vespers, truffle pasta appetizer, beef Wellington, chocolate cake, Nicholas, and Lawrence!! We'll be back.

    We ate in the lounge area because we were not wanting to spend a lot of money. We ordered the Caesar salad and steak and frites. We brought our wine and paid the $75. corkage fee. I think that is the highest cokage fee in the area. The qualiuty of the meat was very good and cooked to perfection. The staff were very nice and efficient. The lounge setting was fine, however the music speakers were close so that with the bartenders shaking cocktails it was noisier than I prefer.

    The only "complaint" is the background music - it was a distracting mixture of popular songs from several eras. It might have been more fitting, with the intimate atmosphere, to play music without lyrics - maybe jazz or even classical.

    Our experience was just okay. The hostess staff wasn’t particularly friendly, and our entrées took nearly an hour to arrive. To their credit, the team apologized, comped our drinks, and brought out a complimentary appetizer, which we appreciated. The food itself was OK.

    Can't believe this restaurant has a Michelin star. The Village Pub is a million times better if you want a Michelin star dining experience. The prix fixe menu is ok. It's priced at $125 but if you want truffles (which were subpar) or a better cut of steak there are supplemental charges for all the good stuff. The desserts did not taste homemade and weren't great. Definitely not worth the high price. Oh and the ambiance is you'll be sitting next to influencers taking photos of their food and themselves all night.

    Selby's was by far the top of our dining experience in this area. We celebrated a wedding anniversary in this lovely ambience with exceptional service and exquisite dinners. We had a group of six at our large table, but this restaurant is also set up for private dining for two. My husband and I will certainly be back again!
