TAO Asian Bistro - Chicago

Great food and environment

Beautiful setting with amazing food for the eyes and stomach. Accompanying cocktails were on point as was dessert!

Great food and service. I cant wait to explore more of the menu.

Celebrated my birthday. Food is exceptionally good. My favorite place right now

The food is excellent. The best shrimp tempura. Great ambiance. Seating is a bit close.

We went to Tao to celebrate a birthday. Upon arrival for our reservation at 8:15pm, we were told to wait in the sitting room or at the bar to be seated. We were not seated until about 8:50pm, which was frustrating considering we had a reservation made. After the initial poor impression on the restaurant, our waiter was very attentive and the food was great! Prices are on the higher end and would not say that they necessarily match to unbelievable food portions. In addition, nothing special was done for our friend celebrating his birthday.
Overall we had a nice time and enjoyed the food, but probably will not be back.

One of the best vibes and atmosphere in the city. Food is amazing and great selection of cocktails. Would absolutely recommend!

Good experience and vibe. Food was decent however got extremely sick. Definitely would go for the atmosphere and have a casual drink.

Very beautiful restaurant. We loved everything about it. The Pad Thai chicken, wagyu steak and orange chicken were delicious. The staff went over and beyond to make sure our dinner experience was great

The food was very good. The drinks were good. The chicken satay is great so is the lobster rice. Really nice decor. great place to take friends

Loved the food; our waiter was great. Pretty place!

Waitress was very helpful with suggestions without being pushy at all. Servers were present to remove empty plates whenever they became empty.

Food was amazing. Very delicious appetizers that wants us to come back and try them all! Main course was good. We had the sorbet for dessert. It had flavors that I never experienced.. They were outstanding and worth coming back simply for the dessert!

We had early reservations so the place had only 3 or 4 tables that were occupied. This may be why the service was superb.

Mediocre food and presentation considering setting and price

Food and atmosphere were great!
But, one of the waitresses told my friend she needs to find some to take care of her, if she wants to dine in there after she asked how to skip the line at the night club!

It is unacceptable!

Very fun. A little more ‘happening’ than we were expecting but great food and entertaining ambiance. The DJ played great music but it was really loud.

Great place. Excellent sushi

We had dinner with friends that we’ve known for over 25 years to celebrate our friendship! The food presentation and flavors were on point and service impeccable! We would highly recommend this restaurant for a special occasion

The ambiance of the place was unreal. Food was really good except for creme brûlée which wasn’t that good. Service needs improvement. Bus boys and servers work is not synchronized, rather erratic. They knew it was a bday party of our friend yet they served the entrees to everyone but made the bday girl wait for the main course to arrive. They brought coffe for guys but forgot to ask the ladies. We had to ask for wine refills and for extra silverware at one occasion. Considering we spent $100 each per plate ($600 total) it wasn’t a great value for the money spent.

Love Tao - have been many times

Came for a bday dinner. Got seated more then an hr after our reservation time. They did give us complimentary apps and free entry to the club which made up for the inconvience!

We waited 1.5hrs to be seated. There was zero communication or consideration from the host staff, nor any management to smooth things over. Our actual server was lovely, but we were starving by then and not in the best moods. Food came out almost too fast, and all at once (not coursed out) so jt was a rushed dinner experience for the long wait.
I’d rather fly to NYC and dine at Tao downtown there.

Reservation was for 8:30 and we weren’t sat until an hour after. While my group appreciated the complimentary dishes. We waited quite a while in between dishes.

went on a date for my husband’s 30th and everything was perfect and we got our food pretty quickly for how busy they were. would def recommend

Great atmosphere, very dramatic and club like. We shared multiple dishes and everything was delicious. The Seabass skewers are a must.

Zaya was awesome and patient with our service. Yeah ZAYA
