Awful service. The place was nearly empty so my friend & I sat at the bar. Took literally 20 minutes for someone to take our order - which was a bar back that I had flagged over. It was then another 10+ minutes before we received those drinks. The upside was the drinks themselves were great. It’s a neat spot but I will not be returning. I can’t imagine how much worse the service is when it’s busy.

The Selva was terrible simply terrible!!!!! Upon arrival we waited for the valet, who was busy standing talking to their buddies!!!! Smh.... Then once inside we were seated within a timely manner but once the appetizers came it all fell apart.... No utensils or plates were given... These establishments have popped up but no one is training their staff...

The chicken quesadilla was amazing! The staff is attentive. I loved the lowlight ambiance and the music wasn't too loud. I'll definitely visit again.

The menu is too limited. The menu is too expensive. The service was subpar. The waiter forgot what we ordered. Still charged us for it though. Ran out of a couple of things on the menu and it wasn't even busy
