" I recently tried Selene and had mixed feelings about the experience. The venue is elegantly designed and cozy at the same time, creating a fabulous atmosphere. However, I found the food to be a hit or miss. While the salmon crudo was outstanding, the fried chicken was quite greasy. The service was friendly, though at times it felt rushed. I would consider returning for the crudo alone, but the inconsistency does make me hesitate. " (*Curated Review*)

" We celebrated a milestone at Selene, and it did not disappoint! The staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a magical night. The grilled whole fish was one of the best dishes I’ve ever had, bursting with flavor and beautifully plated. Service was attentive but not intrusive, and we felt genuinely welcomed. The decor adds a lovely touch to the overall dining experience. Would I come back? Absolutely! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Selene for a casual dinner with friends, and we truly enjoyed ourselves. The atmosphere was stylish and somewhat warm; perfect for a catch-up. Our server was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. We ordered a variety of dishes, and the standout for me was the mushroom souvlaki – incredibly tasty! The only downside was that we found some of the portions a bit small for sharing. Nonetheless, we left happy and satisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" Selene is a fantastic addition to the dining scene! The warm ambiance and elegant decor create a great backdrop for a meal. I must say, I enjoyed the shared plates concept, and everything we tried was delicious — especially the creamy baba ganoush! Our server was patient as we contemplated our choices, which was appreciated. I would love to see more variety in vegetarian options next time but overall, a lovely experience that makes me want to come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" The summer evening spent at Selene was delightful. We went with a group, and the sharing plates concept worked perfectly for our gathering. The spanakopita-pizza was a unique spin that had everyone talking, while the creamy dips paired beautifully with warm pita. I will say that our server was swamped and it took quite a while for our drinks to arrive, but they made up for it with genuine friendliness. It felt very Mediterranean-like to share the experience with our friends, and I'd happily recommend this place. " (*Curated Review*)

" A hidden gem in the city! We had an unforgettable evening enjoying various dishes at Selene. The service was incredibly attentive, and our server guided us through the menu. Their cocktails were refreshing, and the wood-fired dishes were exceptional. I can't recommend the mussels enough – they were simply divine! The atmosphere felt upscale yet inviting, making it perfect for any occasion. I’ll definitely be back to try more dishes from their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Selene Aegean Bistro is a masterpiece in the East Vancouver dining scene! The moment you step inside, you're transported to a Mediterranean haven. I couldn't stop raving about the sparkling ambiance and attention to detail in decor. Now, onto the food: every dish was carefully crafted and exuded freshness. The marinated cherry tomatoes in the Horiatiki salad were a revelation. In honesty, my only regret was not ordering more dishes to share around the table. The service was impeccable, which made the overall experience that much better. I will be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)
