Best Restaurants for Birthdays in Studio City

Beautiful venue and really good food. The big miss was waiting and waiting for a new batch of mashed potatoes to come out. There were 8 of us waiting and sadly they never came. My food was cold by the time I decided to go back to my table. When I told our waiter Josh, he fetched some for our table of three. That was a big miss and that’s why I gave a less than five star on food. Luckily Josh and Kyle (who seated us) saved the day with their charm!

Michael gave us the best service!He was fun, knowledgeable and very attentive! The food and cocktails were amazing. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Thank you!

TAO was such a great experience! Food and service was amazing and the ambiance was perfect for a birthday dinner! Great options that we could all share which made it easy to try multiple things. Will be back!

First time to visit this restaurant. The entrance seems a bit odd but as soon as you open the door and walk in, it has a nice vibe. Dining area is all the way to the back, past the bar and library lounge. Food was great and the complimentary sparkling red wine was a nice touch. I just have an issue with forcing you to order all the food at once (appetizers and entre). I would rather have an option of ordering appetizers first and tasting it and see how large or small the portions are, then I pick my entre. By the way, we did ala carte and not Prix Fixe menu to have the liberty of ordering everything we want to try. Overall, the experience was good, although it could be better.

Have dined here before and enjoyed it, but various items tonite seemed bland, especially the Teru Roll which is a signature item.
