   Honestly, TikTok gave it too much hype. Sure the interior is nice and our service was great, but the food is wayyyyyy to overpriced We had 4 appetizers and 2 drinks and it came to $130! The only good appetizers we had was the bread, the saganaki and the calamari. The mushrooms were very disappointing

   I wanted to try Selene after seeing it online and wasn’t sure what to expect (hoping it wouldn’t be overhyped). well, everything was incredible: from the food, to the service, to the ambiance, this was one of the best meals I’ve had in Vancouver in a while, and definitely one of the best Greek restaurants in the city. I was so impressed considering it hasn’t been open that long! Will definitely be back and can’t wait to try more of their dishes.

   The kalamari, mussels, houmous and feta stuffed olives were all delicious. I genuinely am still thinking about the food. Great price, lovely staff, amazing interior

   Finally, after 25 years of waiting, a cool, creative, interesting, and above all terrific restaurant has opened up in our Hastings/Sunrise neighbourhood. I've always thought Greek food was usually pretty solid, but often predictable. This, however, is the new wave of Greek food. Thoughtful, intelligent, inspired dishes that had our whole table talking throughout the meal. Now mind you, we went with the 5 course/10 dish tasting menu, which is often the best and most fun option in restaurants who offer it, so I can't speak for anyone who just orders a dish or two off the menu. The value we got for $80 a person was amazing. We were all happily stuffed. The ambience is smart and inviting, and the service was very attentive. We'll be coming back regularly, and we don't go hardly anywhere regularly, so that's saying something. Cheers, Brad

   Great food and beautiful ambiance. The hummus with lamb and lamb ribs were such a highlight!

   Everything we ordered was just perfectly made sense and executed. The atmosphere, atmosphere, branding and plate & decor were just right. and I tend to be easily bothered when the volume of the music is off unfortunately, but didn't have that problem here, which was so refreshing.

   The space is lovely and the service was as well. We ordered 1 small 3 medium and 1 large dish plus a dessert and we were stuffed and took a few things home. Red pepper dip and pita was great as was the tabouleh salad. We then had the mussels which was delicious. The zuchini was nice but a little undercooked for my liking. We had the octopus with the squid ink orzo which wasnt my favorite, but others might enjoy it. Overall will definately go back and try a few other dishes that we were interested in but didnt order.

    We showed up thinking our reservations were at 7pm but they were actually for 7:45. The hostess was so kind and said it was no problem as we had selected bar seating. She got us a regular table pretty quickly though so that was really awesome of her. Service was really exceptional from the bartender and then our server once we moved to a table. Food was delicious, can’t wait to try other items for another visit. Cozy yet modern restaurant with great ambiance
