   We arrived earlier than we had booked. The host let us in with a smile and allowed us to choose our table. It was my husband’s birthday celebration and they made sure we knew they were aware. The view, especially at sunset, was spectacular as was the ambiance and food. We ordered the Ahi tuna and charred romaine Caesar and it was amazing. Entree was the coffee basted short ribs that fell off the bone and the chioppino with plenty of seafood and bread for dipping. They surprised us with a molten chocolate cake. Great location, food is excellent…. What’s there to think about?

   We got excited because it had the perfect ambience they had a guitar player was all decorated very nicely for Christmas very beautiful inside. The service left something to be desired for. We waited for over an hour for food to come out and when I did my daughters Caesar chicken salad had raw chicken in it. The braise beef was a really poor cut of beef as half of it was fat on top. The brussels sprouts were cold on one side. I was really disappointed in the food and the length of time it took to get the food and the waitress said they’re short-staffed in the back and apologized but they offered no sort of concessions for the long wait time.

   Thanksgiving dinner: paid in advance. Cost: $115/person without alcohol. Soup good, salad tasteless, turkey main course ok. Dessert poor. Poor service - had to stack our own plates after each course since the food was brought out and given to us with dirty plates still in front of us. It was Thanksgiving evening and they had a live performer with amplifiers too much for the room - rock music.

   Was extremely disappointed with the entire Thanksgiving Experience. The meal had to be prepaid, which you would assume they would have the seating and food needed in order. We had to wait 48 minutes past our reservation time to be seated. Of the 4 courses, 3 were missing components. The entree and most important dish was missing 3 of the items and the substitution might as well have come from a can and likely did. The food was bland, the wait was inexcusable, the missing items were missing all together or replaced with can food. Sad to say it was one of the worst meals i’ve had in AZ, Boston Market would have prepared a better Thanksgiving meal and it pains me to say that.

    Claims of a sunset view were misleading. Restaurant/lounge face east with some of the spin-off colors but no actual view of the sunset. Disappointment tainted the rest of our visit.

    Drove over 30 minutes to go to this place for the ‘no light pollution’ view. We were so excited! Once sat, it took 10 minutes for anyone to greet us, took 30 minutes to receive our drinks and 50 mins for appetizers. We were so disappointed in the service that we decided not to get dinner and just stick with one drink and appetizers and go somewhere else. I ordered the PSL which was good but small, my friend ordered a cucumber gin martini which was the star of the night because it was straight gin lol. The appetizers were whipped ricotta which was alright but only came with 4 small pieces of bread and then the sashimi which was good! Unfortunately we won’t be back or recommend this place due to our service.

    1st time at Cielo. Highly anticipated for a pre-planned Veterans Day Celebration, and as noted in the reservation. Sharing experience details with scores: Checked-in on time with the Host, gave name twice, reservation was found and name was acknowledged, except that I received a No-Show/No Points email later and had to submit dining proof to OpenTable (1); Ordered Calamari as an appetizer, asked about it 3x, it never arrived (1); no where did I see entrees could not be ordered before 5 pm, not on the website menu, not on the restaurant menu (1); ordered a “sandwich” with “NO Cheese”, it eventually arrived full of melted cheese (1); No Veterans Day offer or discount (1); Service was ok, manager MIA (2.5); Final Overall Score = 1.25.

    Go for the views just before sunset. Good vibe at the bar, noise spills over into the restaurant, though. Blackened tuna to start, very tasty. Ciopino, (spelling ?) way too thick, needed to be soupier. Sent it back, got the strip steak w/frites (new potatoes), delish! My husband got the pork chop. It was good. Great place to go for an average to above dinner, not an anniversary.

    The food is excellent. My husband had the short ribs. This is the second time he ordered them. Amazingly good. I had the steak this time. It was cooked perfectly and the accompanying potatoes were incredible. They are baked, smashed with skins on, and then fried. Crunchy on the outside and creamy on the inside. The service was as good as the food. My only concern is that if the bar is crowded or if there are a lot of people in the dining room, it can get noisy because of the hard surfaces and the bar and dining room being in the same area.

    We went for dinner last night. It was our first visit to meet a friend who was staying in the hotel. Food was good. Service was good. We decided to return today with family to try the brunch. Everyone thought their food was good. However, the service, for a near empty restaurant, was extremely slow. Enough to make me not want to return. Time will tell.

    A Fountain Hills gem. This was our first time to eat at Cielo. We had an OpenTable gift card to use and this restaurant gave us maximum value for that, so we said, "what the heck." We were NOT disappointed. We sat on the patio and had a magnificent view. Tina was our server and was fantastic. We obviously needed some intel on the entrees and Tina took her time to help make sure her recommendations were right for us and not just generic. She did a wonderful job from the time we sat down to the time we departed. We had the Pork Chop and Spare Rib entrees. Both were incredible. And the portion sizes were ample. Too many foo-foo spots give you about 122 calories with leaves and stuff sprinkled around to make you feel like it is 5-star deal. Not Cielo. Good presentation, yes, but also a real meal. No ala cart rip offs here. The veggies were included on the entree plates. There were at least 2 other entrees we also were thinking about, so we plan to go back. Lastly, the hot lava cake dessert was awesome. Throughout the meal, on a few well-timed occasions, Matt, the evening F&B manager stopped by to make sure our experience was spot on. Super nice guy and between Matt and Tina, we had a winning pair. Valet parking is free if you are there for dinner. Great restaurant!

    Really appreciate the wonderful service by Julie! Ambiance of course amazing. Food was delicious. The new ahi appetizer - wow! Get that. I do wish Cielo would divide/split the salad that we shared (and the entree too, but that is understandably more difficult). Bartender was on point - mixed us up some great cocktails. Thanks Cielo too for the local discount!

    Such a great restaurant in a gorgeous hotel in a serene and beautiful setting of Adero Canyon. They offer valet parking and both indoor, outdoor seating options .. weather permitting. The whipped ricotta starter was amazing. Service was too-notch, drinks and dinner were wonderful as well.

    Dinner here for 30th wedding anniversary. Cielo didn't disappoint. The view of the valley and setting sun from the outdoor patio is wonderful. The service outstanding from server Ellie. She made every effort to make the occasion special. Meal was terrific. Wife had the salmon and said it was the "best she ever had!" Well done Adero and restaurant Cielo! We will certainly be returning.

    Our waitress Eli should use a pad of paper instead of her memory. She didn't get drink orders correct and forgot special requests on food for several items including no almonds for someone with nut allergies. They did remove 2 entrees from the bill but that's not what we went there for, you would think that with just 6 entrees on the menu ALL of them would be done perfectly. it has not been the same since Mariott bought it and took over.

    The Adero hotel is very pretty, views are beautiful. Dinner at Cielo left much to be desired. The appetizer was very good, whipped ricotta. Figured the rest of the meal would be on par and was mistaken. Steak was bland, short ribs were not flaorful and salmon was not great. Our server was slow and spent a lot of time talking with 1 table, not ours.
