I love this restaurant for so many reasons. Peruvian cuisine is still quite rare in Paris, which makes it a refreshing alternative to the usual French bistros. The outdoor seating is lovely, especially since it’s on a quiet street with very little traffic. The food is excellent—everything is fresh, the cocktails are great, and the service is always friendly. I especially recommend the pescado and the chimichurri. My only suggestion would be to source the meat locally instead of importing it from Argentina. I understand the idea behind it, but given today’s environmental concerns, it would be a thoughtful improvement. Overall, one of my favorite restaurants in Paris and definitely worth a visit.

The food was delicious and the place was spacious. I just wish the main dish portions had been a little bigger, but other than that, everything was perfect!

Amazing experience at selva. The Peruvian food was exceptional. We wish we had a bit more food for the arroz con pato, it was a tiny bit short for 2 ppl, but excellent !

Beautiful food! We had the scallops on plantain (incredible, so silky), broccoli with carrot miso purée (comforting), and the côte de boeuf (perfectly aged) with chimichurri. Phenomenally delicious! Paired with a wonderful Chilean Pinot. And the cocktails!! Perfect dinner. Definitely will return. Merci 😘
