Nice ambience with good music from 90s hip hop. Food was good variety. We had the spicy chicken sliders and the butternut squash risotto. The pumpkin rum drink was also very tasty.

We have been to Selvin's before and been quite pleased, however this last Sunday it seems like we got the "B" team or ?? We (wife and I) were seated outside, which was fine, late reservation. But we were right by a window that separates the inside and people are looking right at us. Weird layout. I asked to move to another table that was nearby and they graciously accommodated us. Perfect so far. Ordered drinks while perusing the menu. Great cocktails, then ordered a shared mix of items, salad, pizza and entree Seabass. The salad and pizza arrive in maybe 15-20 minutes. Again fine, but the entree didnt' arrive for another 40 minutes. I asked to cancel it when it took so long and the waitress brought it out and said it's ready. I accepted it (my mistake) only to learn it was cold. Where had it been sitting that it took so long and was not cold? The whole time we were there, a birthday party near us with about 16 people were doted upon. It appeared that some of them, maybe even the gentleman celebrating the birthday was an employee. Certainly several of the staff knew many at the table anyway. Regardless, the entree wait was ridiculous and serving it cold after we informed them to cancel was a miss for us. Will have to think hard about returning.

This spot definitely has a lot to offer. The ambiance was chic and sophisticated, and the food was absolutely delicious—especially the chicken and waffles and the pizza. Unfortunately, our experience was dampened by a few factors. We were seated near the kitchen, which was quite noisy, and our server was very inattentive, making us feel overlooked. Overall, if you’re seeking good food and drinks, this place is worth a visit. Just try to avoid being seated by the kitchen and hopefully, you’ll have a better server than we did.
