Best Latin American Spanish Restaurants in St. Petersburg

What a fun place for drinks and some yummy appetizers! We were able to score outside seating and the view was perfect!! Our waitress Diane was perfect! She gave us a lot of local things to do! She even spotted a dolphin for us!

Open Table permitted us to make a 9 pm Friday night reservation. The restaurant actually closes at 9 but I would not have known that had they not called me to ask me if I could arrive earlier than 9. This kind of attention to detail is very professional and I appreciated it. The food was amazing! We were a party of 6 that grew to 11 at the last minute. They accommodated us with a wonderful attitude and we had a great time having drinks, tapas, dinner plus dessert with friends and family.

The food and service were outstanding. There were many traditional and unique items to choose from on the menu. We had several special requests and Selva was able to meet them all. An excellent dining experience. We definitely would recommend Selva.

Great vibes and good food. While service could be better, they make things right when they are moving slow.

Overall it was a good time. 3 of the 4 liked their meals. The kitchen was a bit slow where the fish was overcooked was the only hard food complaint. Two appetizers were both good. A was also surprised by the reservation card requirement. Wanted to try something new and fun and it seemed like it would be maybe later in the night. Certainly the hurricane recovery seemed to be a factor as well, the already limited menu was even more limited. Might try another time later in the night.
