I had the Beef Shish, and my partner had the Vegetarian Couscous; they were both well seasoned. The beef was cooked to perfection. I loved the environment; although they has 3 servers and the places was somewhat busy they was Swift at serving. We will definitely be back. read more

This review is for takeout only. I tried a few of my favorites for takeout; Spicy Ezme and lamb shish. The Ezme was delicious and very fresh but takeout did not include table bread that you usually use to dip in the Ezme. The way it was provided, the only way to eat it is with a spoon, I guess, like a cold soup. The lamb shish was not as tender, and the bread was tough and chewy. Very hard to chew. Ordering lamb shish in the restaurant was a completely different and much more delicious experience; especially when the bread is fresh and hot. The cheese pide was delicious. The cheese was flavorful, and the bread was flavorful and tender. I would order it again. Dessert was the best thing we ordered. The Apple baklava is just amazing and I can't recommend it enough. Although I seemed to remember when I had this at the restaurant, it came with a scoop of ice cream, which is not probably feasible for to go. I guess the bottom line is I will look forward to when I return to Selda restaurant, but it's unlikely I will order takeout again given this experience. read more

What a gem! I only just discovered this lovely place. Went for lunch with a good friend. We shared the chicken shish (cokes with rice and bean salad, we subbed beet salad for bean) and beet salad. Chicken was cooked perfectly. Rice was white and I don't think had any added flavors. The beet salad was especially good. Greens and roasted beets with cubes of feta. Dressing was good and not too much. Really delicious! I highly recommend. Super nice staff and lovely, clean restaurant. They have a nice patio also. Have not tried the desserts yet, but they look absolutely divine! I look forward to to going back trying more things. read more

Traditionally huge fan of Selda. Everyone is really nice, great customer service although service can be a bit slow at times, and amazing food. The restaurant has an indoor and outdoor patio which are both beautifully designed. They usually bring complimentary bread and a sort of sour cream cheese which is truly amazing. I got their soup and Urfa Kebob that comes with rice as well as side bean salad. The flavors are just amazing. For dessert I got tea and tried out their Bakhlava as well as cake. The cake and the bakhlava were a bit sweet for me but it also tasted amazing. Overall great experience and I highly recommend this restaurant and its location. read more

I was a little disappointed in this place. Very pretty patio, and the bread was phenomenal! And the soup was tasty, the salad fresh. But gosh the mains were such a letdown. Overcooked and boring. Would just stick to the bread and apps if I ever return! read more

Such a cute place. The patio is fun and charming, a great date night spot. I ordered the lamb shank and it was so tender it fell off the bone. The bean salad is fresh and flavorful. The complimentary pita bread is. Try a pide, we got the meat one. Our server was very nice and service overall was fast. Didn't wait long for our food. Walked by the dessert fridge on our way out, and dang. Should have gotten the pistachio cheesecake. Next time! read more

Lamb chops were bland and they forgot to include the salad that came with the order. The rice had flavor. They have several locations and this seemed to be a very busy spot. I am a firm believer in, "The first impression is the last impression." read more

Couldn't have been better, really. Love the casual atmosphere, while keeping the food and service top-notch. Allergens were clearly marked, food came out within minutes of being ordered, and everything just stood out as extremely flavorful of perfectly executed. Their desserts also looked amazing. I can see why they're doing so well, and have expanded to multiple other businesses and locations. read more

Another 5-star experience for us. My kids beg to come to this restaurant every chance they get. Most of us are sold on the lamb chops but my husband gets the beef shish.

Everything from the drinks to food was delicious and the restaurant staff were very helpful and friendly. These are hidden gems! Maybe not so hidden ... :) read more

I wanted to love it given all the fantastic reviews, but the lamb chops that I ordered weren't as flavorful and filling as expected. Perhaps since my party was seated outside on the patio, we also barely received any service despite coming at a less busy time. read more

This place was pretty good. To start, the breads they bring out are warm and fresh, and so addicting. We also got a meat assortment and was good as well. The star of the show here tho is the Kunefeh with ice cream. The cheese wasn't too overpowering and had a nice brown sugar taste too it, sooo good. The service was good as well, but at night there are many birthday parties and they dim the lights and blast music for each person lol so keep that in mind if you wanna eat peacefully. read more

This restaurant was recommended to us by a dear friend who had lived in Turkey for many years. As a result, we were very excited to try it out! Safe to say that we were not at all disappointed by this restaurant!! We decided to try all the small plates, such as cigar borek, falafel, feta cheese and olives, as well as the fried cauliflower and they were all incredible! My very favorite was the fried cauliflower! Highly recommend trying it. The best way to end the meal is with the pistacchio cheesecake! It was a perfect blend of pistacchio flavor without overwhelming the palate! I can't give enough stars to this restaurant! Please come try it and see for yourself! read more

Had a fantastic Friday night dinner here! Definitely plan to make a reservation if you want to come during peak dinner hours on a Friday. I didn't see a single empty seat! Spicy Ezme - this was my favorite thing here! Loaded with flavor and spice. A great dip for the bread! Grilled Eggplant Salad - another great dip! It was cool and reminded me of babaganoush Hummus - it was good! Not the best hummus I've ever had, but I still enjoyed it Fried Cauliflower - crispy and tasty! Drizzled with a nice sauce and easy to share! Chicken Shish - tasty chicken cubes with Turkish rice! They were marinated well and cooked very tender. Lamb Shish - small lamb bites that came with bread! I don't eat lamb often, but I did like the lamb here! Cooked very well. If you're looking for an authentic Turkish or Mediterranean meal in the north Dallas area, it's hard to beat Selda! read more

Came for dinner on a Wednesday night off a recommendation and we were not disappointed ! There is inside and outside seating - and you can enjoy hookah with your meal if you sit outside . The place was pretty busy for a Wednesday night so just to be safe you may want a reservation. The food was delicious . They give you complimentary fresh hot flatbread with labneh We started off with hummus, tzatziki, halloumi, and lamacun. For main dishes, we had the chicken shish and beef shish . The meat was tender and juicy and I was a big fan of the salad served along side it. We took some Turkish tea to go. All in all, a great experience and we would absolutely come back read more

What a wonderful restaurant and amazing staff. You have the option to eat inside, or you can dine on their patio. The food is amazing and the portion sizes are huge. I suggest when you order your entree, get a few for the table and share with the group. Hummus- simple dip served with fresh warm bread Stuffed dates- A-Maze-ing....even though this is a appetizer and it's stuffed with goat cheese, pastrami, spinach and walnuts. You literally can have this for dessert because of it's sweetness Chicken shish- tender marinated chicken served with rice, and a wonderful fresh bean salad Baklava- delicious read more

My friend recommended this Turkish restaurant and we decided to give it a try since we had to make a trip to the downtown area. They had outdoor seating available and it was a beautiful cool day so we asked to sit outside. I wanted to get their fried cauliflower since it seemed really good and popular but they were unfortunately already sold out for the day. We decided on getting the saksuka instead since I wanted an eggplant dip. They later brought out some complimentary bread, a yogurt like dip, and the saksuka. I didn't realize that the saksuka was a cold dip and not a warm or roasted one, but we both still enjoyed it. It had peppers, tomatoes, and eggplant in an oil and marinara sauce. Still would've preferred a heated one though. Next came the spinach cheese pide, which my friend recommended. Honestly, this was probably my favorite dish that we got. This is a Turkish pizza stuffed with sautéed onion, spinach, and feta cheese. Each piece was so so good. My friend got the chicken shish and really enjoyed it. I got the lamb chops since it was their most popular dish. I honestly thought it was going to be bigger because it seemed that way in the pictures I saw online. The meat was also a little overcooked for me but I also never specified to them how I wanted them cooked. It came with a bed of Turkish rice and bean salad. read more

Beautiful ambiance, good food, wine, service. The food is not over flavored, breads are delicious, and food does not feel heavy or rich. We enjoy our visits which means they consistently serve good food. I wish the served grilled veggies in each dish instead of just protein and rice. read more

Selda is one of my favorite restaurants in Dallas. The Turkish food is some of the best I've ever had. We brought our buddy from Saudi here and he said the Kunefe was better than he got at home (hint: order and split it no less than four ways since it's such a wonderful but heavy dessert). We bring every out of town guest we have here at least once. Ample parking. Lovely patio. Fresh food. I love the bean salad some of the dishes come with. I literally cannot say anything bad about any of the things I've tried here. It has all been super yummy. read more

We've been to Selda in Dallas many times and always had an amazing experience with great hospitality. Unfortunately, the Frisco location does not come close. read more

Excellent food and service!! Their bread is special too. It's delicate and perfect.its upscale Turkish. Love the ambiance.

Service was impeccable; they serve tables as a group and everyone was attentive. There is both indoor and covered patio parking. We did not partake but saw people ordering hookah to the patio. There were several large groups seated at longer tables, the space was cozy and full but didn't feel cramped. Everything we got was delicious; all the kebabs on the kebab platted, the roasted eggplant and the never-ending stream of hot bread. We will be going back for sure! read more

One of my favorite Mediterranean places in the area. I've probably picked up from here over a dozen times. I've never actually sat down to eat here, but it feels like it is always completely full. Seems like a fun atmosphere with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Big fan of both the beef and chicken shish. Their tzatziki is also amazing. Will definitely be stopping by dozens more times... read more

Met a friend on a Sunday afternoon at this Turkish eatery and had a tasty meal. The weather was great so we opted to dine on the patio. The patio is well-designed and inviting but I was unfortunately seated in the corner facing the neighboring 7-11 and its small homeless encampment that was set up along the building. For those who are bothered by that be mindful of seating. The view aside, the meal was fantastic. We started with grape leaf-wrapped salmon as well as the spicy ezme. The salmon was perfectly cooked and the ezme was addicting. I ate it with the table bread/naan, as well as my entree. Just phenomenal. We each ordered the lamb shish as our entree and subbed rice for the Turkish bread. Everything was flavorful and herbaceous. Service was okay, friendly though our server did slip away to hit a hookah that was just a couple table lengths from us lol Overall great meal, and I'd come back here again but probably dine inside. read more

I had the fried cauliflower and the Bronzino. The fried cauliflower was so delicious. I can definitely see myself coming back for more. You can't go wrong with Branzino and that's why I chose the meal. The Bronzino was good too. I did have to pick a few bones out of that signature of eating whole fish. The decor was very cute and the ambience was very relaxing. You could tell that this was a family based restaurant you could tell the people who go our frequent eaters. It just felt like one big warm restaurant. read more

This was my second visit here. I made reservations by ending them from their website for 5 pm on Thursday night and we were sat right down. The servers were quick to bring our food and friendly but when we were done we were sitting for at least 5 min looking around trying to make eye contact with someone. They weren't busy and there were plenty of folks around. I prefer the mayors house in bishop arts but this place is great too if you're on the north side of town. Highly recommend. I have gotten the lamb chops every time and they are so good! (Here and the mayors house) the beef shish was new to me. I didn't love it but my son said it was really good. The halloumi was good. I had it at the mayors house and thought it would be the same but it wasn't. Both were delish. The salmon in grape leaves was just ok. Glad to try it but wouldn't order again. The kunefe for dessert was so yummy! The small is definitely big enough for 3-4 people to share, esp after a big meal. Make sure you order it early or be prepared to wait a bit for it to be prepared. read more

The food was great but the service lacked a bit-we were there late when it wasn't busy and it took forever for someone to bring us water, bread, and to take our orders.

We arrived at 11:30 on a Sunday afternoon. Seated quickly and ordered a few different items. The spinach salad with feta, watermelon, beets, and walnuts was a delicious start. The eggplant salad was tasty and so was falafel. I am already planning a return and will bring more friends:-$ read more

How many times do you go to a restaurant and every time you have a fantastic experience? Each time at Selda we have tried a different appetizer and entree. Every meal has been exceptionally good. Staff members are kind and desire to serve. The restaurant has a pleasant atmosphere with tasteful decorations. Great vibe - and you can have a conversation because it's not too noisy. We highly recommend Selda and are looking forward to our fourth visit. BTW, try the fried cauliflower and grilled Branzino - you'll be glad you did. read more

I have been eating in this restaurant for 3-4 years. The food is authentic Turkish and prices are very reasonable. Their salads are great; in addition you can choose your meat. The atmosphere is extremely friendly, informal and homey. Their patio is a great place to eat, particularly during summer. If you plan to eat during weekend and in the evening, you may need a reservation, since they can get crowded. Many Thanks to Indira for her hospitality. read more

Food 5/5 Service 5/5 Ambiance 4/5 We've been going to Selda for years and it's always top tier Turkish food and service! We love this place and highly recommend. Our typical dishes are grilled branzino, lamb chops, hummus, shrimp garlic, cauliflower, and vegetarian couscous. All are delicious! Service is even better than the food. The whole team is very attentive and friendly! They get pretty busy on weekends, so I recommend having a reservation. read more
