Went for the brunch deal and my birthday! Was incredible how delicious each item was. You are greeted with a welcome drink and the most soft croissant with a strawberry butter that is out of this world! I got the pork tostada which the pork melted in your mouth. My friend got the soup and said it’s a great vegetarian option. Next we are the scallops which had big flavor! Highly recommend! Last we ended with steak and eggs which was delicious! It’s been a long time since I had a great meal! Highly recommend for the food, ambiance, and service!

Excellent food and service. Everything was delicious! We ordered off the a la carte menu: NY strip with truffle fries, jumbo lump crab, Korean beef short rib buns, and miso curry halibut. Highly recommend!

We came here for the New Year’s Eve chef tasting menu. I’ll start by saying that the service and the staff were good! The ambiance was also nice. However, the food was a little disappointing as we were expecting more from a fine dining restaurant. There was nothing spectacular as of note or very creative. The main courses, the steak and the venison, were cooked and seasoned well and our favorite course of the night, others were average when compared to other restaurants I tried on the same level. Presentation and flavor sophistication need some attention.

One of the best tasting menus I’ve ever had — and definitely the best food I’ve had in the Scottsdale area. I know the look of this place is a bit of an eclectic mixed bag, but the food and service are top notch. That oyster chowder we started with and bread pudding we ended with were 2 of my favorite dishes just on their own. Yes it’s a little pricy at $120 per person for the chefs tasting and $100 for wine pairings — but I feel like that’s pretty standard in this city these days.

Found this restaurant when looking for a place to take my Mom for her 80th birthday. So glad we chose Sel. The atmosphere, food, and service were all exceptional. This place is a great example of the difference between having dinner and dining.

Sel’s Restaurant was the perfect place to celebrate my 40th birthday with my girl friends. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel so welcome. They were so accommodating and professional, going above and beyond to make sure our night was extra special.

I believe this restaurant is a somewhat newer addition to Main Street Scottsdale. Regardless, it offers an absolutely fantastic tasting menu that feels established and tried and is sure to delight. Ambience is casual/formal.

Had the Chef’s Tasting Menu and it was phenomenal. From the amuse bouche all the way to the final plate (I had the Maine diver scallops) it was just perfect. The right amount with portions, the taste of each dish was sublime (the carrot and ginger soup was incredible) and as each course came it only got better and better. Kudos to chef Branden for a phenomenal first time experience at Sel.

Superb dining in a comfortable setting. We did their tasting menu and every item was unique, delicious and carefully crafted. Excellent cocktails as well. We were even greeted by the chef during our meal and overall, the staff was absolutely fantastic. I hope to come again soon!
