Cielo Wine Bar at Hotel Valencia Santana Row

Great bar in a beautiful setting. Every time I come here it’s breezy - seems like a great place to escape the summer heat. Great food and nice size portions. Could definitely make your dinner, if you don’t feel like going anywhere else and dealing with the crowds.

They have a great Whiskey Cabernet cocktail. L'Assiette de Charcuterie was also pretty good. Nice spot to enjoy drinks and a snack with a date or a friend.

We had our wedding here. Everything was absolutely perfect! The view, the sunset, the plants and natural flowers. Trang was our hotel contact and she did an amazing job! She got us the best bridal suite with lots of light and great for photo shoots. She was always responsive and made sure everything goes smoothly. The food captain, Rosa was great, she was so attentive you would think it’s her own daughter’s wedding day and she want everything to be perfect. All of the staff were very nice! overall we are very happy with our choice, Cielo was perfect for our wedding with 35 guests. The venue is very romantic and it has an Italian feel to it. Here’s a picture of our dinner tables. Thank you hotel Valencia staff

Cool rooftop with decent views. I would suggest going up there to look around, hang out, and take pictures but save your money and go to Oveja Negra two floors down in the same building. Way better service and overall feel. Reason for my bitter review is their outdated menu pricing and their slightly arrogant bar staff. I asked why my tab was $7 more than what I expected and they said "oh old menu, we're updating soon". I don't mind the price but don't lead people into a certain expectation and tell them "yea sucks, that's what you're paying" when you ask why there's unexpected price.

Super nice

Amazing view

Happy hour on Sunday from 2-5pm - expensive ( less than $75) of wine were 1/2 off. So who wants a bottle of wine at 2pm on a Sunday? Someone recently arriving from the East Coast - that's who! I get a bottle of Dominus (1996) for half price (a stupendous savings!) and enjoyed the appetizer/finger food. They also have a good selection of beers. Very hipster-chic ambience.

The only thing is the view.... Which is the same from the parking garage. You're almost better off parking there. At least you'll have music then. The ambiance leaves a lot to be desired.
