Best Seasonal Restaurants in Fountain Hills / Rio Verde

Very solid food and service. Second dinner of stay was A+. Server and hostess staff went above and beyond. Value at Cielo is excellent. Views stellar. We feel the menus are ‘cheap’ and encourage management to ‘up’ the quality of printing and formatting. Frankly they are hard to read and appear very amateurish. But…a small detail compared to the food and service. If someone steps in to handle all the fine details, Cielo could be a Valley gem not to miss.

The filet was the best we have ever had in the Valley. Amber was a great server and Dennis's wine recommendation was spot on. Great Place!!! Can't wait to go back.

One of my very favorite patios to eat at in Fountain Hills. Incredible views!!! Live music is good. Can still hold a conversation with your dinner guests. Plenty of heaters to keep you toasty warm. Food is good. I personally recommend the pork chop. Great experience all around.

We were for a birthday celebration and also Valentine’s day, but I consider us being regular clients. We love the personalized approach, the attention and suggestions that every client benefits when dining here. Sandrine was so kind to text me to confirm that dining outside was ok while the inside are was full for Valentine’s day. And I do not regret the decision to accept. They covered the patio area in a way wind or rain could not bother you and the heaters did a great job maintaining a cozy temperature. Evey detail was carefully put in place, from live roses and a huge bouquet in the middle, to the colored lamps and soft background music. We loved every minute and all dishes were perfectly cooked and seasoned. Perhaps the octopus was the only one I did not fancy, but everything else was a delight of taste. Well, if you expect your plate to be full of meats you have to go to black angus. This is a place where you come to experience flavors and three course meal will fill you just just right without overwhelning your digestive system. But ai gues that is a matter of taste. We love, love, love this restaurant! Sandrine and her team are doing an awsome job promiting the French cuisine in a city where such an experience is hard to find.

The service was excellent. We were there on Valentine's Day and it was very busy. You would never have known that by the service we received. Gracie (apologies if I've misspelled her name) is awesome!!! The food was very good. We started with the prosciutto and burrata appetizer which was excellent. We loved how thinly the prosciutto was sliced. Our mains were the salmon and the wood rotisserie chicken. I think I got the better main (salmon); it was fresh and cooked perfectly. We finished this off with the key lime pie and coffee. The coffee was excellent and although the pie crust was very good, the filling was a bit too tart for my taste. We should have gone with Gracie's recommendation. As everything she recommended was excellent, including her wine choice for my salmon. The entire staff from the hosts to the busers were efficient, welcoming, and kind. I am so impressed by the team you have in place. Great job!
