    It was our first time at selva. The music was great especially if people like reggaeton or Latino music. We surprisingly went Thursday night which they have happy hour from 9 pm - 12 am. We tried various drinks and appetizers. All were great. Great staff and service 🔥 They have a fire area outside plus a great view of a cinema on the side. I definitely will recommend this place to others. I am definetly coming back to this spot 💯

    First time here and drinks and food were amazing! We were able to sit out outside and although it was chilly out you couldn’t really feel it with the fireplace they had. They had a DJ playing some great throwbacks and it was a great vibe. Our server was amazing, she was always smiley and gave top tier service, its people like her that will make me come back!

    Dining at Selva was an absolute delight. From the moment we arrived, the atmosphere was vibrant, and the service was attentive yet relaxed, creating the perfect backdrop for an evening of culinary exploration. The Chicken Tinga Tacos were bursting with bold and savory flavors, a testament to the chef's creativity. The Chili Rubbed Shrimp Tacos brought the right amount of spice and zest, perfectly complementing the freshness of the shrimp. Both dishes highlighted an attention to detail that Selva clearly takes pride in. The Smoked Sazerac was smoky perfection, a cocktail that felt both classic and inventive. As for the El Diablo, its balance of tangy and fiery notes made it the ideal companion to our meal. These drinks were crafted with just as much care as the dishes—true standouts. Selva combines impeccable food, well-curated cocktails, and a lively ambiance to create a dining experience that’s both memorable and exciting. Highly recommended for those seeking adventurous flavors with a sophisticated touch!
