LUNCH 68 days ago
We are total suckers for new lunch options in the 'hood although it's often a crapshoot since the service can be spotty and the food questionable. Today, however, Cafe Select proves us wrong with their opening lunch menu. Well not the service part (still a little spotty), but we left feeling very h... Read More

LUNCH 26 days ago
Mmm mm, a double salad lunch is pretty rare for us but the light freshness of Cafe Select's salads combined with some more substantial toppings (delicious grilled chicken or cut up pieces of wurst) seemed just right for the unseasonably warm weather we're having today.

Modern Swiss fare paired with Alpine wines arrives in SoHo at Café Select, a reasonably priced newcomer serving breakfast, lunch and dinner; boho chic design – an artfully distressed paint job, posters stuck to the walls, a train station–sized Rolex clock – reflects its nonchalant vibe, and sin...

Photo: Melissa HomLast night's crowd at Café Select was every bit as chic as you might expect from a Touch of Class/Serge Becker joint. Very much a “female” restaurant, though Simon Hammerstein also made the scene. Our waitress could’ve been Agyness Deyn’s twin sister. The open front window an... Read More

SOHO— According to DBTH, Serge Becker's counterpart to La Esquina, Cafe Select, is having a friends and family cocktail party tonight. They already had a party or two last month, but this latest soirée signals we're getting one step closer to the real deal. [DBTH] IRON CHEF— Serious Eats culle... Read More
