Ciera Steak and Chophouse

First time dining at Ciera. Very impressed with presentation and food. Service hit perfect balance of always being close by without hovering. Looking forward to return trip.

Anniversary

No major complaints. Overall good experience.

Great service and food

Sensacional! O melhor da cidade! Passamos 6 noites em Stateline/South Lake Tahoe. Cada noite fomos a um local. De pizzas e cervejarias a restaurantes sofisticados, inclusive no nosso Hotel, The Edgewood Loge Tahoe, que tem dois muito bons (ver avaliações). Este, contudo, excedeu as expectativas. Da recepção à sobremesa, tudo fabuloso. O Lobster Bisquet, o vinho, os pães e, lógico, o Tomahawk de Wagyu: supremo. A cheesecake de pinacolada estava, também, supimpa. Atendimento excelente.

Ciera makes a big deal of being Tahoe's only 4 diamond restaurant. The latest 4 diamond award I saw posted on their wall is from 2017, and I'm not surprised. The service, ambiance, and food were less than I hoped for. I stood waiting in the entry for about 5 minutes before the hostess came, then had me hold on while she answered the phone, and stayed on the phone for a minute or two before asking if I had a reservation (I did, but the restaurant was not full at any point during our visit). The inside of the restaurant is a little boring looking; lots of red velvet but not much else. There are no windows, and it's on the bottom floor of the casino; there could be a great lake view if it was at the top and had windows. The wait staff was pleasant but slow, and our food took a really long time to come out. My husband had the New York, and I had Elk. Both of us have had these items at restaurants many times before, and I'm disappointed to say they've been better elsewhere. I wouldn't recommend Ciera to a friend, there are too many other better restaurants around the lake.

The Ciera at Mont Bleu was amazing. The staff was attentive, efficient and friendly. The food was perfect in every way, flavor, presentation and portion size. I recommend this dining experience to anyone who is looking for an exceptionally quality meal.

Noise level a little high, sat next to a party of 25+ with three tables, other than that food and service was very good.
