  • We arrived at Le Select at 9:30 last Saturday night for our 9:30 reservation. There were three of us. We were escorted to a table that would not have comfortably fit two much less three. Why such an inappropriate table would be offered us is beyond me, but hey, I guess the rule is always get rid of your worst table first. I informed the hostess that we would not be able to sit there and were told we could wait at the bar for another table to open up. Fine. I have no problem waiting. As we sat at the bar she gave each of us menus. "We aren't eating at the bar" I said, but she just ignored me and left them. There were two bartenders and another restaurant person behind the bar. They were cleaning glasses, chit chatting amongst themselves and generally ignoring us. Finally, after about 10 minutes I asked, "you do serve alcohol here don't you?" At around 10pm we were finally seated and low and behold....it was the same table but with an extension on it. Oh well, it is now ten and everyone was hungry so we sat. Service was slow to adequate. The food was just above average to poor. Both women had the Steak which was not bad. I had the grilled chicken which was horrible. How can you screw up grilled chicken? I eat out almost every night of my life and I know that restaurants have good nights and bad nights. My girlfriend however was really unimpressed. She felt so strongly that she wrote them a note the next morning. It wasn't a harsh letter, just a chronicle of an unsatisfactory dining experience. Their response....nothing. No, "we got your letter and are looking into it" or "sorry you had a bad experience please try us again". That they didn't respond to her is symptomatic of what I think the place is about. They just don't care about their clientele. It is a beautiful restaurant, expensive by TO standards, serving mid range chain restaurant food. Take the food from Milestones and serve it up at Le Select and I am sure the regulars would not notice the difference. Its unfortunate because the place has so much potential to be first rate. That it neither achieves or aspires to anything more than mediocrity is disappointing.
