Reseñas

We have been several times...it seems like you are in a corner of Tuscany.The restaurant is located in a privileged environment in the interior of the Marina Alta.Once you enter, it smells rustic and at the same time of our times.The cuisine is innovative with some traditional touches.And in terms of quality and price, I think it is one of the best restaurants in the entire region, if not the best.We will return permanently!!!!
We were made to feel welcome as soon as we stepped inside, Staff very attentive , food was delicious, Good amount of dishes to choose from too.
Very cozy restaurant. We come on a Wednesday and they have space in the interior room, very charming. As starters, churros and pâté sandwich are very good, zucchini soup and mussels are very average. Main course, sirloin and turbot, very good. Maybe I miss a little more quantity for the price. The desserts are not up to par with the menu. Advisable!
Highly recommended! Completely unexpectedly stopped here with friends after a visit to Jalón. Excellent menu, very knowledgeable staff and a cozy setting. Will definitely be back next fall!!
Simply spectacular. Alberto a great professional. Food and presentation of 10.
Perfect! Let's live here in Xalo andAll of our friends and family say, fantastic.Perfect! We live in Xalo and all our friends and family say fantastic
Restaurante Bistro Selene is a true gem for those who love good food in a rural setting. Located in a quiet location, this restaurant not only offers a serene and relaxing environment, but also ample parking, which makes the visit extra comfortable.Upon entering you will be warmly welcomed by the extremely friendly chef de maison, who exudes a feeling of hospitality and warmth from the first moment. His personal attention to the guests makes dinner here a special experience.The menu offers something for everyone: you can choose from refined à la carte dishes or opt for a carefully composed tasting menu. The dishes are not only deliciously prepared, but also beautifully presented, with an eye for detail. The plates are true works of art, where the flavors complement each other perfectly.Whether you are looking for an intimate dinner for two or a nice dinner with friends, Restaurante Bistro Selene is an absolute must. The combination of the rustic location, the warm welcome and the sublime food makes this restaurant a must-visit.
The menu with a main dish to choose from is not bad, we have gone two days in a row, dinner and lunch, and the fixed starters were the same and the main dish to choose from, too.The quality of the product is good and the dishes are elaborate.The service very good!
Local located in a friendly area and good access to parking. Cozy place to eat on the terrace or dine with beautiful decoration. I must comment that the cuisine is given to the palate and gives rise to desires to return to eat again. It is true that something explosive is missing in the dishes (I am referring to the flavors, not the preparation of dishes), which sufficiently adapts to those of good eating, even so I invite the greatest creativity of the cooks who are wonderful. The service, a delight accompanied by the place... recommended
Absolutely delicious menu eaten...price/performance top...attentive service...nice atmosphere in the garden...absolute recommendation
Pleasant terrace, excellent à la carte or menu service, finely prepared dishes
A surprise on the first day of vacation! Without making a reservation, we called last and they welcomed us with a lot of love.We opted to order the menu and a whole oilero! Special mention for the artichokes, delicious! The tiramisu is also another star, super good!They recommended an incredible wine and super nice service! We both ate, with a bottle of wine for €73.Highly recommended! Don't stop going!
Spectacular cuisine and a selection of wines to match. The treatment of the staff, correct and close and always willing to make good recommendations.The place accompanies both the interior and the terrace. We will repeat for sure.
Enjoyed a great menu, friendly and hospitable service, nice place to spend an evening!
Good restaurant, very friendly and attentive service, good price quality. Will definitely go back.
Excellent food and good service. Highly recommended quality price
Very beautiful place with shaded terrace, refined cuisine and attentive staff
Very friendly service, people really do their best for you.Food is always very tasty.We come here regularly and enjoy it very much.Alberto is a top guy.
Exquisite cuisine, both in preparation and flavor as well as in presentation. Spectacular treatment. The beautiful place, especially the terrace. Price appropriate to the quality and quantity offered. A wonder that is well worth it, there are few places like it left, so congratulations to the establishment, and thank you
We were having dinner last night. Both the treatment received, the service and the dinner were 10!! They advised us on a spectacular €25 menu (without drinks) 😋The starters each had their own flavors that made you enjoy every bite. The main other pleasure on the palate. And finally the desserts... I have never really tried such a spectacular tiramisu! Super recommended. The waiters were also very accommodating and with a smile that conveyed how to be with family.
Really didn’t enjoy our experience here.Service wasn’t great and we were ignored - our orders arrived incorrect and I waited over 45 minutes for my main. My family had already finished their food.Then we were made to wait a long time again just to pay.We ate at lunch time and the restaurant was not busy.
Five people, food on the terrace, very good atmosphere, we ordered the menu, very good starters, only one of the main dishes failed, attentive and pleasant service, somewhat slow but there were many customers; highly recommended
Very atmospheric. Bread was served with aioli, unfortunately this was included in the bill. Every guest "gets" this bread. Staff super nice. Ordered pork tenderloin, tasteless and not finely grilled and dry. Also the fries, way too hard. Mayo requested not received. All in all a disappointing experience. Very disappointing quality.
Nice menu. Nice meal. The older waiter makes an effort to use Dutch words! Funny!
Wonderful place with delicious food at a very good price! We had dinner from the menu they offered us and we loved everything!! The best is the service, the people who work there are lovely, highly recommended 🤗
We passed there by chance. We enjoyed the food very much. The service was friendly. I can only recommend the restaurant!
We dropped in without a reservation but were warmly welcomed. We both took the menu. My cod dish was absolutely top class and probably the best cooked cod I have ever tasted. My wife took the Thai red chicken curry which was also delicious. Very comfortable for dining and well decorated dining room with good ambience. Waiting staff very friendly and professional and created a very welcoming atmosphere. Unlike the previous review comment, the waiter explained clearly the options for menu del dia with the small extra charge for cod or lamb. We hope to return. Highly recommended.
Excellent meal.They make the “cheat” of suggesting changes to the menu. A way to multiply the bill.Unpleasant final surprise.A shame.
Returned this year , menu de dia slightly changed for the better. Well cooked and presented and good portions. Well done to the proprietors.
Lovely restaurant... friendly professional service good food. Not cheap but why would it be.will go again
A quiet and very beautiful place, located in an old riu rau tastefully restored. The food is spectacular, the menu they offer is great. Fast, attentive service.
Always reliable. We’ve been here a few times now and always return when we are in the area as we know we will get a decent meal. Great fixed price menu at €25 for three courses. The service is always cheery if a little long, but if you are in good company it didn’t really matter as you can have a nice long lunch.
Lovely, delicious and tasty. A hidden luxury in a haven of peace. Thank you.
Very good restaurant I recommend it to the French as well as to those who like good cuisine. An advantage for people who do not speak Spanish, the waiter speaks French very well
Great restaurant, the food was delicious and the service was perfect!I would highly recommend this place if you want a good meal at a very reasonable price. 😍😋😁Still a great place to eat, definitely worth the drive here. 😋😍
2023-11 Had lunch with 4. Two of us took the 3-course lunch menu which now costs €25.40 but now has 3 beautifully presented tapas as a starter, a choice of 3 preparations as a main course and a whole range of desserts presented at the table after the meal.The others chose from the menu; a “capucino de gambas” (bisque) @10.50€ and a “paletilla de cordero” (lamb shoulder) @21.90€. Both dishes were sublime! The tastiest shellfish soup I ever had and a (milk) lamb that melted in the mouth with the right Arabic touch in the accompanying sauce.The red Monastrell from the wine list was also a hit.A card that offers great value for money and is therefore highly recommended.2021-10 Lunch menu top again @16.90€, this time photos taken... Visited before, menu always top.2017-11 Top 3-course lunch menu @€15.90. Friendly service. Recommended!
Very tasty and caring service with a smile 😀 highly recommended. Don't hesitate.
We were in the Jalon Valley showing friends around and looking for somewhere for lunch. This was an excellent find. We all had the set lunch menu which I think was just under 25 euros. There were three set starters/ appetizers and then a choice of three mains. There was also a desert included. The quality and portions were very good and service excellent.
It's fantastic food and service can't be better can really be recommended. It is difficult to give suggestions for improvement
We also had dinner here in May and it was really great value for money. The price for a three-course menu increased by 25%, but that was only noticeable in the price. I was really disappointed this time. Fries were hard, you could barely cut them with your fork. The jar of mushroom sauce was the same amount as a portion of mayonnaise, you couldn't see it...
Honest and tasty cuisine for a fair price in a beautiful setting - what more could you want?
it was a private birthday party, everything was very tastefully prepared, both the snacks and the main course.TOP
100% RECOMMENDABLEI went to celebrate my birthday this year there and it was a success!!!The super nice and cozy summer terrace. The treatment of the wonderful staff. And the exquisite menu!!!Whether for lunch or dinner, this restaurant is a WINNING OPTION!!!
FABULOUS !!!An address to remember, the place, the service, the cuisine, the Pepe Mendoza wine! We loved everything 😄Go for it, the quality/price ratio is excellent!👍
I personally didn't like the food, but others did.You should only buy the eight-course menu if you really like fishy food and you like it a lot.
Restaurant worthy of a Michelin star.Beautiful place, with large parking.The attention was perfect.The photos don't do it justice
Nice and cozy atmosphere. Friendly and attentive service. They have a menu of the day that is very rich and the rest of the menu is very good.
I went to eat today and the waitress gave me a bad look asking if I could sit down to eat when the place was completely empty. I am a salesperson from the area and I went with a good presence but I did not like the manners, and to make matters worse it took them 20 minutes to serve me the main course, the starters very quickly but later they forgot about me. The food is good and the presentation too.
During our holiday at Lliber, we visited Selene. Sitting outside we enjoyed the staff and the food. This is quality, very good prepared food and the staff do their utmost best to make it a visit you never forget.
We had gone on other occasions years ago and it was nothing like what it is now: the waiters lack experience, they don't have a gluten-free menu, the price of the menu has gone from 19 to 36 euros and the whole table has to order a menu or all letter Some salads to share and a second without dessert 42 euros per head. Total disappointment...we won't be back.
The worst experience in my life. I’m not recommended this restaurant to anyone.
Excellent place, value for money, both for lunch and dinner.Thanks Alberto and company. Congratulations.
Very nice home. Servers smiling and pleasant. 7-course menu at 34.50 euros. Everything was excellent, we had a great time. I highly recommend
Delicious food, good service, no music on terrace. Attention for mosquitoes!
Great menu del dia good service and nice atmosphere. The bacon and apple salad starter was a bit boring but edible, the main course boulabase was good, the house white wine was very good
Refined food with exquisite flavour combinations, beautifully served in a classy environment. Portion sizes aren't too big, which allowed us to enjoy three courses without feeling overstuffed. Bonus points for child friendly service.10/10 our taste, would recommend anytime!
Exceeded my expectations. Wonderful dining experience. The staff were well trained and friendly, food was superb couldn't fault it, great fine dining at reasonable prices and the house red wine was one of the best I've had. Nice modern decor very welcoming restaurant.
I recommend this place. Great food , good service. And don’t forget to order the lovely house wine
Service good, ambiance good but my companion's pork was undercooked, it was sent back for more cooking but it returned still undercooked. Pork is a meat which must be well cooked as everyone knows! The other thing is that the portions served were very small although the plates were quite large
Excellent food, always attentive staff.Great ambience!Impeccable cleanliness.Highly recommended.

Very cozy restaurant. We come on a Wednesday and they have space in the interior room, very charming. As starters, churros and pâté sandwich are very good, zucchini soup and mussels are very average. Main course, sirloin and turbot, very good. Maybe I miss a little more quantity for the price. The desserts are not up to par with the menu. Advisable!
Highly recommended! Completely unexpectedly stopped here with friends after a visit to Jalón. Excellent menu, very knowledgeable staff and a cozy setting. Will definitely be back next fall!!
