Turkish friends brought us here and assured us that this food is the closest to Turkiye that they have found in all of San Antonio. Food was great. Had a wide variety of appetizers and meats so we got to try a bunch of dishes. Best Kunefe I have had outside of Qatar! I can't wait to try it in Turkiye some day! Turkish coffee and tea were also very tasty! Service was really good. A number of the staff is Turkish and our friends were able to order the authentic things! Will come again!

I'm taking the opportunity to revisit my previous "stars-only" review because I feel that taking the time to detail the experiences I've had with Selda is worthwhile, and that Selda's staff and food are more than worthy of the effort. We (my family of 3) have dined at Selda twice now - once in a desperate rush for calories in a specific area of town, and then again on a Friday during the holiday crush that prevented me from posting immediately, because I was eager to dine with Selda again. Both times, we experienced a warm, comfortable environment that reflected a formal dining experience, but felt relaxing and casual at the same time. It was the perfect blend of highly professional staff and formal arrangement, coupled with a genuine affability that put us all at ease in a way that I associate with being surrounded by caring relatives during two of the most memorable meals I've ever had the pleasure of enjoying in the last decade. My young daughter was treated with delight and respect, and we enjoyed every interaction with the staff attending to us with such authentic care and mindfulness. The stuffed dates were incredibly dreamy, the shrimp appetizers a sizzling delight. The lamb was so tender and tasty that my first grade child, much in want of her two front teeth (and half of her bottom set, too), was able to enthusiastically enjoy and ask for more of. The seafood I ordered was excellent (and also enjoyed by my little one). The beans and rice served alongside the main dishes were perfectly curated and fabored by all. This restaurant provided me with my first-ever restaurant experience with eggplant, and boy, did they deliver! I was shocked that an ingredient I'd previously thought unpalatable could be so tasty. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to sample all the pleasant dishes delivered to our table due to my own food allergies, but I hear great things about the gluten-containing delicacies. Should the service and taste continue at this level or beyond, Selda will become one of the few staple restaurants in San Antonio that I deliberately make plans to enjoy personally, and with friends and family. I eagerly look forward to my next dining experience at Selda, and sharing many more wonderful meals there with people I love. Shoutout to Mr. Zorro, and all the excellent staff who made our visits so delightfully memorable! I cannot wait until next time.

We had a wonderful experience at Selda Mediterranean Kitchen and Bar in San Antonio. The restaurant was spotlessly clean, which immediately made a great impression. The staff were exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and attentive, making us feel comfortable from the moment we walked in. Everything felt well-organized and professionally run, with a warm and inviting atmosphere. You can truly tell they care about their guests and take pride in what they do. Highly recommended for anyone looking for great Mediterranean food in a clean setting with outstanding service. We’ll definitely be back.

This is our favorite Turkish/ Mediterranean spot in San Antonio. Located right off the highway, this is the perfect spot for date night or to bring your whole family. They have an extensive menu. We love the baba, hummus, any of the grilled dishes. We stopped by on a Sunday and got a table. We tried the Beyti Kebab (grilled minced beef wrapped in a light wrap with yoghurt and red sauce which was devoured in seconds. We also shared the Ali Nazik, chunks of savory lamb over a Smokey eggplant. Be sure to add extra orders of pita and you won’t be disappointed. The service and atmosphere is great.

I went here for my bday with my family and had a lovely experience. The servers was very accommodating and friendly and another gentleman helped keep our table clean and waters filled. The manager omer brought us teas and a delicious fudgy cake and sang happy birthday to me. They ensured we had a window seat. The food did take a while but not rushing made it feel like I was family. I would reccommend this to anyone looking for a homey and flavorful experience. The mixed grill and lamb chops blew me away!
