    As always, Selva dishes out incredible food in an awesome atmosphere and staff. Eric, our waiter was exceptional! Stephen, the manager, keeps everything under control with his cool demeanor and his efficiency. The sea bass was wonderful! Selv’s is never a disappointment.

    Selva is one of our favorite restaurants when we visit the Sarasota area. We wished there was one in our hometown. The presentation, service, taste and overall experience is is unmatched by any other restaurant we have been to. It is reasonably priced. Which is very hard to get these days. The smoked shrimp cocktail will be on my mind for a very long time.
