    I made reservations a month ahead of our scheduled time to visit New York and had no issues so that. Once I wanted to call and confirm a few days prior to the reservation, no one answered the phone. I also called the day of the reservation and no answer. The ambiance was great! The seating felt tight, but luckily we were in a booth in the corner. We definitely had to shift the table around to get inside the booth. Once in the though, it was comfortable as there was enough table space. The service could have been better. The server sold the menu to us and forgot our cocktails and failed to keep water on rhthe table. He didn’t check on us really after we got our food. The food was good and the portions were definitely enough for 2-3 people easily. For reference, we shared in our party of 3 the calamari as an appetizer with the stuffed salmon, rigatoni, and surf & turf for our entrees. Great food but service was not up to par.

    I had an amazing experience at TAO! The food was absolutely incredible, especially the Gyozas—they were perfectly cooked, flavorful, and a must-try. The ambiance was great, but what truly made the night special was our server, Precious. She was attentive, friendly, and gave fantastic recommendations. You could tell she genuinely cared about making our experience memorable. Such a sweetheart! Highly recommend!
