    The lomo saltado was juicy and full of flavor, and the empanadas were crispy, golden, and perfectly seasoned, would definitely come back for more!

    We were celebrating our 24th wedding anniversary. Selva had a nice welcome note on the table and fresh flowers followed soon thereafter. Those two small gestures made us feel very good to kick things off. The tuna and watermelon ceviche got things started, followed by the tomato salad, lamb chops and ahi tuna for entrees. The dessert was on the house. Great work and I would not hesitate to go again. The only negative was the tomato salad had partially cooked tomatoes and the skin was left on them, and the mozzarella was too cold as compared to the other ingredients. That was less than fun to eat, but still tasty. Thanks to the team at Selva UTC.

    Outstanding food and superb service. William, our waiter went above and beyond to make it a special evening. He was professional courteous and extremely patient. It’s great to patronize a restaurant that has such well trained staff.
