Worst experience after 14 days in Toronto! Don’t even think it is French. It was just disgusting. Service was horrible. We ordered a bottle of wine, and 25 min later the waitress said that they were running late as they had to go to the cellar in another building. Happy hour is only for 5 cocktails or a glass of red or white wine. My steak tartare was not great and despite i said i was allergic to garlic they served me frozen fries obviously with pesto. My husband had a coq au vin on mashed potatoes not made today! Try to avoid this place, too expensive for the quality of food or service

In one word, impeccable. Delicious food, wonderful ambiance and highly skilled, well trained servers in black and whites. If you love French Bistro, Maison Selby knocks it out of the park! It felt like I was back in Paris.

Enjoyed dinner at the bar with a friend. Beautiful place, of course. Martinis (yes plural) were on point. Steak frites were superb--maybe the frites could have been... hotter? But the steak was amazing.

Restaurant is beautiful, even though the music played didn't complement the ambiance. We had great appetizers, but I found the Beef Bourguignon...which should be a signature dish, to be below par. My home version is better. The beef was chewy and it didn't even taste like it had been braised as the meat was dried out. My son is a chef and he felt that the dish must have been made a couple of days ago. Very little sauce and pomme puree just tasted like nothing. There were also issues with the service. We were a table of 6, and the mains arrived at different times leaving one person without their meal when others were already halfway through theirs. Desserts took way too long to arrive. We were ready to leave. For the amount we spent on this meal and the quality of the food, I will not be returning.
