Tao has become a weekly spot for me these days. The bar area is really nice and casual. Drinks are very very expensive but there's a "hush hour" menu that no one talks about that has some decent food prices so it balances out. Still you'll spend at least $100 per person.:.

Went for my friends bday on a Tuesday night. Our service was phenomenal, ambiance is 10/10 it's a beautiful restaurant. The food is good but not amazing for the price. My friend ordered a sushi roll and sashimi, she really enjoyed both. I had the orange chicken, fried olive rice, the cauliflower side and the edamame appetizer. For drinks she ordered the Cucumber gin cocktail and I had a ruby something with vodka. I had 3 drinks for $25 each, I never felt a buzz... for someone that doesn't drink often I should of felt something. The drinks are very light. I would suggest not drinking here. They did give my friend a complimentary dessert, which was yummy! I would return for another special occasion and take pictures but not run back to eat and drink any time soon.

My friends and I went to TAO LA after a Vegas weekend getaway. My girl friend from Australia had her visions set on an LV restaurant that was a major let down so I wanted to make it up to her by taking her to TAO. I used to work TAO LV beach club so I was confident TAO LA would be amazing, even though I've never been. Based off the menu, the food was 100x more awesome, they care about their image in what they present, and it was all very noticeable. The let-down location in LV did not seem to care about their established image and it was honestly such a bummer, but if it wasn't for that bummer experience we would not have experienced the TAO LA experience! I will have to say it took them an hour and 10 minutes after our reservation to seat us. We had to check with the desk a handful of times because we eat late but came with empty tummies because we were excited with the food and didn't expect to get seated over an HOUR after our reservation. They must've heard the guys complain because when we were seated, we got one of the most stunning seats in the house. For parking, we went to valet. You get a confirmation at dinner and you'll pay a smaller amount. The scenery and ambiance inside was unreal. I love the dark sexy setting, and felt like I did not dress up as much as I'd like for this event! Yes, being at TAO was truly an EVENT! While we were waiting, TAO had a bar waiting area inside which was nice! Ok, once we were seated, our server was extremely knowledgeable. I loved that TAO had vegetarian options for me too and all the drinks did not take too long. We had a bunch of family style plates and it was all so delicious! My girl friend was loving her experience and so were my other friends so that honestly made the night!! Everything from service, drinks, food, ambiance, and setting was above and beyond yet so consistent to the TAO hospitality brand. I am definitely excited to add TAO to the list of places to go when I have more out of town visitors. Thank you for such a lovely experience!

It was my second time here and I was satisfied both times. Definitely recommend making a reservation before going as it can get busy especially on weekends. Drinks - tried lychee martini, mango chili martini, and bubbles & berries and all of them were amazing. They put enough alcohol :) Spicy tuna tartare on crispy rice - love this appetizer. It comes with many pieces Shrimp har gow - I liked how it containd a big piece of shrimp inside Satay of chilean sea bass - must to order! So delicious Druken pad thai - a great dish to share as it is pretty big in portion. Not as sweet as pad thai at thai restraurant which I liked BBQ duck fried rice - another great dish to share. Pairs well with all of their other dishes Steamed bok choy - a little disappointing. Wish the leaves were separated. Would definitely recommend ordering for family style as there are so many menus to try and all the plates were meant to be shared. Ambience is great and serve was wonderful!

This was my first time visiting Tao for a celebration of my and a friend's birthday. The vibe is phenomenal and I just felt transported to another place. When I go back, I want to sit on one of the stair landings. We were a large group and shared a lot of the dishes. I loved everything I ordered, some dishes more than others. The olive leaf fried rice was fresh and super flavorful. The cod was soft, flaky and full of delicious flavor. The edamame was fresh but nothing special really (same with the vegetable egg rolls). The Brussels sprouts were really good, better than I expected. The service was excellent and they were quick to help us with everything we needed. Everyone enjoyed their experience and we will definitely be back. Oh! The music was on point!
