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.

    Our server was fantastic and service was great, the only thing we were disappointed with was the portions of the food and the overall quality. Came for my birthday and was very disappointed.

    I was seated an hour after my reservation because it was packed. So making a reservation doesn’t matter unless you have status I guess. Got free drinks bc I complained though

    Food was great. ...but the restaurant is overcrowded and understaffed, significantly diminishing the experience. We won't go again.

    Everyone we encountered was most helpful and nice. They got us in at our reservation time which was great and the food was exceptional. Everyone enjoyed the dishes they ordered which included the Tokyo filet, 2 waygu ribeyes and the duck. We also ordered several appetizers and were very pleased and probably would have ordered more but the requirement of ordering all our food at once made us feel like we couldn’t. This would be the thing that I would have to say didn’t please me at all and put a lot of undue pressure in the ordering process.
