I did not appreciate the smoky atmosphere. The service is good, but the food has gone downhill. Caesar salad dressing not mixed in well. Croutons stale. Salmon was overcooked and had a weird overpowering topping. Mashed potatoes were overwhelmingly garlicky. Asparagus was nice. Filet Mignon just ok. Dessert: I was so disappointed to see fake whipping cream (powder mix) on cheesecake and lava cake. That alone just brought the class level WAY down. Not going back

Rarely do I ever give out a 5 star rating on the first go around at any restaurant, so when I actually do, folks you want to pay close attention. My wife and I went in to Ciera Steak & Chophouse expecting your typical style steak house. 1st mistake on our part, I felt like I should of gone and changed into a suit, and my wife had only dreamt of being taken to a place so fancy. Steve our server made us feel right at home though. I do not drink but my wife had one of their Merlots and was in love with it. Alejandro, our secondary server helped my wife feel more like she did belong there. First most of the tables there are more like private dining areas with heavy curtains that help muffle any noise, but it's a cool temperature place. We started off with Salads her having the wedge with crumbled cheddar and bacon, I had the grilled avocado salad and for that bit if deliciousness I gave up my peppered vinaigrette dressing recipe. Then our main course was the chataubei for two. Both my wife and I looked at each other and a fully admitted that our favorite steakhouse had been dethroned from their place as number one. For that meal I ended up giving them my Honey Mustard Marinade and my Spicey Honey Marinade the latter having never been given out to anyone ever before. And the price of the excellent service and food was comparable to what we've been charged at Ruby River in Reno. Ciera Steak and Chophouse up at Montbleu at Stateline NV At lake Tahoe is a must go to well worth it. Steve and Alejandro thank you for the excellent service and to the chefs thank you for the perfectly cooked food.

Great accommodating service to help with any needs you may have during your dining experience. Great food and atmosphere

Wow it was a busy weekend in Lake Tahoe. Pitbull on friday night and golf tournament at Edgewood. We had early reservations and we are so glad we did. We booked on open table and asked for a booth. To our pleasant surprise, the booth had floor to ceiling curtains for complete privacy. We started with the lobster escargot, next was French onion soup.... the broth was superbly made. Not salty at all. For the Entree, Chateaubriand for 2, perfect medium rare. Double espressos and cheese cake for desert. We spent almost 3 hours here, we started with giant martinis and brought a Duckhorn three palms Merlot to have with the chateau. Take your time and enjoy this fantastic steak house. Bon appetit

Totally worth it, especially considering the casino often give one away on your weekend getaway. Stop in the next chance you get. Don't forget to ask for a booth with a curtain if you're on a date, VERY romantic.

We both enjoyed the Prix fixe dinner. We had the filet which was so tender you could have cut it with a spoon. The wait staff was impeccable. An enjoyable evening. Thank you Mount blue
