SELINE is a foodie’s dream become reality. The theme of nature and natural elements throughout the entirety of its tasting course is prominent, and the pairings of flavors, textures, and temperatures are next level. Wouldn’t be surprised if they make it onto the Michelins Guide soon!

The food was delicious. Unique dishes beautifully presented. Chef Beran serves several dishes personally so you can talk with him about the food. We missed Dialogue so much and are so happy he opened this new restaurant.

Creative, fun, and delicious. A dining night out. I find most ‘food as art’ restaurants are too stuffy. I feel like Seline has hit the weirdly right balance between exclusive art gallery and inviting 30-40 people over to your house and sharing a home cooked meal with them that expresses why you got into this business. This shows through several staff members participating in sharing the dishes. This is what hospitality should look like to me. I don’t think I had a favorite dish. Just all the extra subtle flavor notes from things like marjoram oil, whiskey butter dessert sauce, and a reduction from squab heart. I’d love to see a small bar height chefs counter added, but I suppose the challenge is blocking the open kitchen from the dining area.
