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.

    They are still working out kinks. No plates at buffets. Empty platters of desserts (also unmarked so you didn’t know what they were.).

    The overall experience of the restaurant is absolutely beautiful. The food was extremely small portions and very poor quality. We had to return the pad Thai it was the worst I have ever had in my entire life.

    First half of meal was amazing! Food, drinks, service all great! About halfway through our meal, waitress disappeared and we waited for over an hour for any more drinks, dessert ordering, or just the check! There is no integration between the other staff with assisting tables that need service. If we would’ve had a better waitress or teamwork between our table and other tables we would have rated this experience a 10/10. Unfortunately bad service is a 1/10 and we will not be back.

    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.
