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.

    My wife and I have visited the LA and Las Vegas locations and enjoyed the experiences. TAO, Chicago lived up to our expectations. The friendly staff, ambiance, food and excellent service made for a wonderful birthday celebration.

    Would be fun for a birthday. Too loud for casual conversation or a date night. Food is ok. Service was not great. Overall- would not go back. It is worth going once as it is a unique restaurant.

    Will never visit Chicago again without visiting. Please try the dumpling sampler. It was truly delicious. Service was amazing, food extraordinary, ambiance truly an experience. Notes - Get the dumpling sampler. - Order some hot tea with dessert. - Music can be load but the playlist/DJ was amazing. - Tables are close together, be prepared to shimmy around.

    Table service was too long. The total time was about 2.5 hours, which at one time it took 30+ minutes to clear empty plates. My waitress acknowledged the time problem as the check was provided, again another 10 minutes. The lack of speed of service was frustrating and impacted my overall experience. I'd not take a party of four if one doesn't have 2 + hours.
