A direct translation of your SQL to Sequel would be:

ds = DB[:users_entities].
  where{{:entity_id=>e[:id]}}.
  where(user_id: 1).
  select(1)
Entity.from{entities.as(:e)}.
  select_all(:e).
  select_append(Sequel.case({ds=>'Y'}, 'N').as(:is_favorite))

Since you don't have a join table, you could probably drop the from and 
select_all from the second query.
