Lovely decor downstairs (didnt go up), nice attention to detail and well thought out. Incredible food and staff, catering for our every need. Very attentative and thoughtful, the service was faultless. The food goes as far, if not further. Really want to come back to try everything on menu! Starters were our fave! Keep up the good work 2026 Update, been here multiple times since and every time is just as good as the last. I had no idea Mexican food was this good!

Selminas wow… what a place! The food, service and drinks were absolutely amazing. Hands down the prettiest and tastiest mocktails I’ve ever had. Everything was full of flavour and beautifully presented. Ami and Elisabata were both so lovely and gave such great service throughout. Highly recommend — definitely a hidden gem in Coventry!

Loved the feel of the place. The food was all-right. Everything was very tasty, but the finesse in cooking, especially seafood, was not there. The prawns were severely overcooked to the point the shell had pretty much fused with the meat and the meat was bordering on dry as a result. The calamari was just a little over-cooked, but still nice to eat. The meat dishes were great.
