What people say, in short
Le Sélect is recommended as a French-bistro alternative for steak frites, though the opinions are qualified. One diner found the steak frites adequate but particularly liked the atmosphere; another reports a chewy steak while allowing that it may have been an off night. Cost also draws criticism. A past regular recommends it from earlier experience but has not returned since the ownership change, so that praise is not a current-operation endorsement.
