  • My wife and I have been coming this tradition French bistro since it was on Queen St., with the bread baskets hanging from the ceiling. I had my first date with my wife in 1998 there, and three weeks ago we celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary. It is a place where we always felt it's warm embrace and enjoyed a culinary experience that rarely disappointed. If there was a cockup, they made it right. Friday, May 18th, 2018 all that, and years of memories with friends at Le Select, came to an end. It was a total lapse in the quality of service and customer attention we've only ever experienced and expect from Le Select. While I waited on my wife to arrive, I ordered the fois gras terrine. A perennial gastro favourite of ours. I was handed a cocktail list. The frois gras came minutes later but they offered no cocktail. In fact nothing was offered for 45 minutes. It's usual to order a less than dry Gewürztraminer or better yet a Sauterne. A tepid glass of water sufficed to wash the terrine and brioche down. In the meantime, several servers and food runners, passed by without a look or any queries. I was stewing. Normally, I would politely point out these shortcomings, but I was having less than a stellar day and only looking to indulge. My lovely, and no wallflower wife, arrived. "Still no wine?" she observes. That was it. The tipping point. When, clearly we were perturbed, a server was immediately on the scene. All they had to offer was, "They were busy." A Friday night, busy you say? A shocker. We were part of the busy. Yet somehow, we fell through the cracks. It happens. Don't get me wrong. But Le Select, has a reputation for great food and even better service. We love traditional french cuisine and this bistro has been our go to for over 20 years. Recommendations for another classic French bistro are welcome. We've moved on.
