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.

    2nd time here. First time in 2019. This time 2024 and Pad Thai with shrimp was uneventful, a tad to sweet compared to authentic Pad Thai. Vegetable eggs rolls were okay. Duck fried rice decent. Ambience is the reason for the visit and service was very good. Slightly overpriced.

    Waiter was excellent- explained all the specialty cocktails and popular dishes. Although we don’t like being asked to order all at once. We like to figure the menu out as we go along. Anyway, many items were excellent, like to pot stickers, and the Peking Duck. However we were not impressed with the sushi or rolls. They weren’t great- just ok at best. We will go again and try other menu items.

    The service and food was amazing. But the three kids yelling and jumping all over the place next to us was no good at all. Was hard to enjoy with that going on. Maybe keep crazy kids at home.
