    Our first dinner experience at Selanne’s was spectacular. Our server Guillermo was friendly, informative, and attentive the entire evening. The food was coursed properly and timely. The food was delicious — both our 12oz NY Strip and 14oz Ribeye were prepared perfectly. We also accompanied these with green beans, carrots, and assorted salts, all great additions. We enjoyed our cocktails as well. Overall, we highly recommend Selanne’s for your next date night or an upscale evening with friends.

    I’ve always enjoyed the food at this place, but last night it was on an entirely different level. The Special King Card and Chef’s Cut were beyond exceptional—perfectly cooked, incredibly flavorful, and simply unforgettable. The service was top-notch, attentive without being intrusive, making the whole experience even better. And the dessert? Absolutely heavenly. A flawless dining experience from start to finish!

    Some of the seating is in the bar area which is a little loud. The service is top notch, Rafael is great! The artichoke soup was delicious and the filet mignon melts in your mouth.

    We LOVE Selanne’s each and every time! The oysters were WOW again and the Shaved Brussels Sprout Salad was so flavorful for sure! The NY Strip was AMAZING and the Mac & Cheese was so so DELICIOUS! The cocktails were GREAT and the service by Bonny was OUTSTANDING! It’s always one of the BEST restaurants in Orange County! It never disappoints:)
