Menus
The inspiration for our food lies within the idea of a “globally inspired kitchen.” This means staying true to our midwest roots while extending our vision to other countries & cultures. We source our ingredients responsibly by seeking out local purveyors, aiming to be sustainable and seasonal whenever mother nature allows. We also strive to provide the highest quality of freshness in all aspects of our creations.

Santo Cielo Beverage Philosophy
Our beverage program is widely diverse, as we strive to represent local taste while supporting producers in our community. Environmentally friendly practices that range from farming, sourcing and production methods are just as important to the creation of beverages as they are in our food. Forming close relationships with roasteries, breweries, distilleries, and wineries who operate with these guiding principles are one of our flagship initiatives.
