I was in the mood for a good steak, so my friend and I chose Cielo based on reviews. They did not disappoint! Initially my friend planned to order a second entree and we would share, but she was really just craving the lobster mac and cheese...so we ordered the 8 oz filet with that, plus a starter salad of burrata cheese with heirloom tomatoes, plenty to share. The steak was cooked to perfection, the mac and cheese was delicious, and we ended with a scoop of blood orange sorbet, also shared. She had two cocktails, and the bill came to $200 before tip. As we left the restaurant, I saw our waiter delivering another split steak entree to the table next to ours...With prices like these, it makes sense. Ciclo is the place to go when you're craving a perfect meal and don't mind splurging.

This meal was not what I expected from the Four Seasons. They were dramatically understaffed, and there were several huge groups plus a wedding on the property. Our server was actually lovely, but it was so obvious he was doing the work of five people. One of our dishes never got to us but showed up on the bill (they took it off of course). Food was average. The non-alcoholic drink I ordered was unbalanced and incredibly sweet. I hadn't been in several years, and it will be a while before I go back.

Hostess: Uma, Ava, Ana, & Cindy Server: Gihvon & Karlos Manager: Seth Another glowing review for the best team ever! We come to Ciclo for every special occasion and our monthly date days, and they never disappoint. The food and service are consistently exceptional. Our drinks are always promptly refreshed, and silverware is replaced between courses—such thoughtful attention to detail. We also have a toddler, and the team is always kind and patient with us. Thank you again—we’ll see you next month!
