About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Hot spot
  • Good for special occasions
TAO Chicago offers guests a sensual trip through the cuisines of Asia. The design-driven restaurant and adjoining nightclub is inspired by the original TAO locations in New York City, Las Vegas and Los Angeles.

TAO Chicago features multiple levels, creating dynamic spaces within the historic building’s shell, while adding TAO’s Asian-influenced DNA to the restaurant, lounge and nightclub including murals by artist Hush and TAO’s signature 16-foot-tall Quan Yin statue anchoring one end of the dining room.

TAO Chicago’s restaurant menu, created by TAO Group Partner and Chef Ralph Scamardella , is complete with Pan-Asian offerings from the sea, sky and land including signature dishes like Satay of Chilean Sea Bass, Crispy Rice Tuna and a Wagyu Rib-Eye.

    Had reservation for 9:45 pm. Arrived at restaurant and was told to wait at bar for seating and ended up waiting 30+ minutes to be seated. Upon being seated, we waited another 30+ minutes without anybody coming to speak to us and we ended up leaving.

    Tao never disappoints, the staff is friendly and courteous which matters when you are hosting clients, the ambience is outstanding and the food is good. Only suggestion is to add More options for vegetarians.

    The wait to get the table, even though we had the reservation and arrived on time, was unbearable. Management didn’t try enough to address the issue, and there were several groups waiting for the table. After we revived the table, we had a food experience. Servers were very friendly and food was really good, just the gap between appetizer and main course ( though we ordered everything together) was huge ..
