From great service to even better good. The best ribs I have ever eaten, juicy, tender flavor was perfect not too tangy but just enough kick. The sides were large portions and the Mac n cheese could be the best we have ever eaten. The dirty martini with stuffed blue cheese olives rivals my favorite from be Benjamins nyc. A must go to restaurant if you in the area.

The service, the cocktails, and the food were all top notch! We sat at the bar and enjoyed every minute of this all-star find. From the black manhattan to the salad to the scallops to the steak and sides, all phenomenal! We will be back!

That place was amazing. It’s a beautiful restaurant, the food was excellent, and I already want to go back. Came here with my girlfriend because I’m a Ducks fan, I watched Selanne and Kariya since I was little, didn’t expect the food to blow my mind! Literally the best steak I’ve ever had. We shared the Lord Stanley Cut (38oz) and it was out of this world. We also ate the Mac and Cheese and Broccollini, so amazing! Even the table bread is amazing. Already trying to decide our next time back. Great and romantic place to take your girl out!

Celebrated my dad 75th birthday here. The food and service definitely meet our expectations for an upscale steakhouse. My dad had the Business and I had the Filet which was so tender. The macNcheese and mashed potatoes were so creamy. And, that warm cracked pepper bread was scrumptious. And to top it off was the monkey bread and rum raisin ice cream. YUMmmmy!! I'm glad I ventured out and tried this place. Hope to visit in the near future.

I cannot say enough good things about this restaurant. Everyone wished my husband a happy birthday! The ambiance was gorgeous. The service by Dimitri was impeccable. The food was AMAZING. Make sure to get the butternut squash soup. It was literally the best soup I've ever had. Filets melted in our mouths. And don't skip the sides! Mashed potatoes were like whipped cream--so light and fluffy! Everything was perfect. Worth every dime!

Selanne Steak Tavern... was beyond my expectations. Had dinner there with friends and we all enjoyed the food, service, and ambiance. We had no reservations and the place was packed, yet they seated us almost immediately.. A new favorite in Laguna Beach.

Everything about dining here was perfect! The interior of the space is exceptionally elegant complete with white tablecloths, and homey design finishes. The service was attentive, and helpful. The food was sensational! We shared the tartare, scallops, and beet ravioli to begin. All of which I would recommend. I had a fillet for the main, along with sides of carrots and asparagus. The fillet was pure buttery goodness. For dessert, we shared the basque cheesecake, and the chocolate cake. There is an extensive wine list for the perfect accompaniment. I will definitely eat here again next time I am in town!

We decided to give Selanne a try for our anniversary and it was a great choice. Our server was Rafael and the service was excellent. My husband got the Lord Stanley cut (which is recommended for two, who doesn't like left overs?) it was delicious. I chose the wagyu filet which was also delicious. We had the scallop appetizer which I highly recommend the mushrooms that come with this dish make the dish. We loved everything we had. We will definitely be going back in the future.

What a charming place and with such great food. We were seated in a separate room from the extremely energetic main dining room, but it was lovely. It felt like we had the place to ourselves and with that didn't come a reduction in service. This place makes a mean dirty martini. The steak tartare was delightful, however you have to assemble it to your liking which can be challenging and freeing all at once. The scallops were delicate and delicious. And my filet was cooked to perfection and oh so tender. Also, don't skip out on the bread service - 3 spreads - each person in your party will have a favorite! And I almost forgot to rave about the risotto! My god - so good - maybe a little over salted. It was an amazing dinner - highly recommend next time you're in Laguna.

Clean, modern, dim lighting, with great food with adequate portions. Would definitely eat here again. I got Mary’s chicken breast. My husband ordered a rib eye with mashed potatoes. Restaurant offered a wide variety of cocktails but smoke and mirrors is what I sipped on. Also, we got to indulge in a little something called monkey bread dessert.

Beautiful restaurant right near the ocean and has interior that is very elegant. We tried many options of food on the menu and they were all delicious. The bartender also made some great drinks as we tried a few different ones.we had a great server who was very attentive and knowledgeable of all the drinks and food on the menu. Not a place that I would frequent because of the price but definitely one worth trying and it also involves one of my favourite hockey players so had to lol.

Absolutely convinced, the best steak anywhere in Orange County! I very much enjoyed both the food and staff at this place. The customer service was wonderful, I could tell that everyone genuinely enjoyed interacting with their guests. I can see why this place has such a loyal following. The food was good and I particularly enjoyed the skirt steak and wonderful sides. They have a great wine list that complimented the bottle that I brought. I can’t wait to dine here again in the future.

Selanne Steak Tavern… A Must-Visit for Steak Lovers in Laguna Beach and for Vegans 🌱 The restaurant is owned by Hockey Hall of Famer Teemu Selanne and local businessman Kevin Pratt, and it offers a menu of classic American steaks and seafood, as well as a selection of vegan and vegetarian options. I recently visited Selanne Steak Tavern with my family, and we were all blown away by the food. I started with the Scarlet Beet Ravioli, (Vegan Style) which was perfectly cooked and served with a delicious balsamic glaze. I also had the charred asparagus vegan style that was so delicious! My family ordered the chicken and the ribeye, and both dishes were cooked to their perfection. The chicken was juicy and flavorful, and the ribeye was cooked medium-rare and was so tender it melted in their mouths. In addition to the delicious food, Selanne Steak Tavern also has a great atmosphere. The restaurant is located in a historic 1934 home on Pacific Coast Highway, and it has a warm and inviting feel. The service was also excellent, and our waiter was attentive and knowledgeable about the menu. It’s seriously the best place and I love everything about it!! There are private rooms for parties, plenty of room to host large events, there’s rooftop dining… it’s perfect! Overall, we had a wonderful experience at Selanne Steak Tavern. The food was delicious, the atmosphere was great, and the service was excellent. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a special dining experience in Laguna Beach.

We had an amazing experience! The aged steak was cooked to perfection and tasted great. The risotto with truffle oil was also a standout dish, and the overall service was very professional. Our waiter was polite and friendly, which added to the overall positive experience. I highly recommend giving this restaurant a try.

If there’s one thing I love about Newport Beach and it’s surrounding areas, is those little restaurants, although small and limited in space, but big on flavor. The food at this restaurant makes one wonder, what kind of genius is working in that kitchen? How could he or she, create a masterpiece even when it come to something as simple as butter (champagne butter and saffron butter to name a couple)? You must try their delicious bread and butter, which a warm delicious bread accompanied by three flavors of butter. But it doesn’t stop there, the mushroom soup was unlike anything you’ve ever tasted, for the main course, we ordered the fillet and the New York steak. They were both so tender that they melted in our mouths. We ordered side of their out of this world steamed young carrots with goat cheese. Even for those who hate goat cheese, this dish will change your mind.

Nigel was on point serving our private party. The chef prepared perfect dishes and the bartenders delivered beautiful, well balanced cocktails. Next time I'm in California, I'll absolutely dine here again!

An overall fantastic experience. Food is excellent, great steaks, and the mac and cheese side is unbelievable. It's Laguna beach so parking is always a challenge, if you have reservations make sure to give yourself extra time. Great location and the service was great, they even gave us a free side and a small dessert since it was our anniversary.

I wish I could give this place 41/2 stars. I would give five stars for the charm and the service and 4 stars for the food. The restaurant is extremely charming and has many different seating areas. If you want a more quiet and romantic area, you can ask to be seated upstairs or outside. If you’re looking for more of an upbeat atmosphere, you can ask to be seated by the bar in the main dining room area. For appetizers, we ordered the oysters, pink prawns, beef tartare, and a wedge salad. The oysters were excellent! The atomic horseradish is definitely atomic. The prawns were also delicious. The chips for the beef tartar was not substantial enough but the beef tartar was definitely tasty. The wedge salad came with a bacon foam that I was not a big fan of. The food presentation was beautiful. For dinner, we had the Sea bass, the dry aged ribeye, and a regular ribeye. For sides, we had the sautéed mushrooms, the brussel sprouts, and the truffle fries. The chef is heavy handed with the salt so if you don’t enjoy very well seasoned food, ask them to put less salt. We did not like the brussel sprouts. It had too much vinegar and just not a pleasant taste. The truffle fries were excellent and so were the mushrooms. For dessert we got the s’mores. It was delicious. All together we really enjoyed ourselves and had a wonderful evening. The host bent over backwards to try to accommodate us And we really appreciated it.

Great location and atmosphere. A bit of European old country feel with seating outside. Food also didn't disappoint. Steak was tender and cooked to perfection. Lavender honey carrots were my favorite. Great wine selection.

Best steakhouse I've ever eaten at. The best lobster, the best ribeye, the best fish, sides and also the best cocktails, best everything. Me and my wife have been eating here since it opened. The quality of the food and customer service have been consistent throughout all of our experiences. 10/10.

The food is delicious, but the service... Eh. My husband called to make reservations for a special occasion. He specifically asked to be indoors, they said no problem. We arrive, we're seated outside on a ramp walkway. A walkway!! Nothing like sitting slightly downhill/uphill from your food haha. I didn't mind the outside bit, it was nice out (didn't know he had specifically requested inside at the time though so I get his frustration). However, being level with your table seems like it should be a no brainer. Whatever, he planned a special meal so I didn't make a big deal about it, nothing like a little neck/back strain with your dinner. However, thinking about it, when you consider the cost, especially when you're ordering $180 steak, it does seem pretty silly. Maybe they gave our table to someone else and just slapped this table together, who knows. Server was great at the beginning, but after the appetizer, we only saw him every 25min or so. I think they may have sat too many people in his section so probably not entirely his fault. But definitely irritating to see tables next to us getting a significantly greater amount of attention from their waiter. Scallop dish was divine. Mac and cheese was good, but a little too rich in my opinion. Wagyu was cooked perfectly and absolutely delicious. So is the food great? Yes. Am I dying to go back? Meh, probably not.
