    Le Select is probably my favorite bistro in Toronto. So from a position of likely bias, I will say that the food was simply outstanding. The service attentive without crowding. We enjoyed a delightful dinner, as much friendship as business. The wine, recommended by the sommelier, was just right. Both Medoc but unique in their own way. It was all that dining should be, and too rarely achieves.

    Alec, your words mean a lot to us. We're honored to be your favorite bistro in Toronto and thrilled that your dining experience was everything it should be—exceptional food, thoughtful service, and the perfect wine pairing. We look forward to welcoming you back for many more memorable meals. Callum Heald General Manager, Le Select Bistro

    Food was outstanding! We went for my birthday dinner and while nothjng special was done for it, the meal and service were great! We had the oysters, escargot, scallops and special of the day which was beef bourguignon. All the food was great and the sommelier recommended an amazing bottle of wine.

    Im a regular at Le Select but this time I was very disappointed. The French onion soup was off and tasted weird. The croque madam Béchamel sauce was not the right consistency and too thick. Everything was very very salty! The Tarte Tatin was good. Overall it was not the best experience and not worth it. I’ll think again before going back to Le Select
    Le Sélect BistroResponded 3 days ago

    Usually we get a great meal but yesterday our French onion soup had way too much bread in it and our steak tartare was so salty we couldn’t eat it. Very unusual.
