Tao has set the bar for me when it comes to nightclubs.
The service is always great and accommodating from the security and bottle girls. I had the opportunity to see Afrojack yesterday it was so much fun. The club was clean. They made sure to clean up any messes or spills as they could while trying to ma

A lot of people and a lot of pushing in front of the DJ booth. Security guards were mostly ok in my experience but I only went there one time and left before it was too late. The music was not my favorite. It was edm like with some hiphop things. It
I may be biased, but I enjoy my visits to Tao.
Although the night club experience is not too different from others, I believe that the quality of artists differ from other places. I've seen big names perform here, and I always have a good time. Of course there are comments how bathroom lines
Great Sunday brunch!
Awesome decor and entrance. Place is very themed as oriental and had a great atmosphere. We hit the Sunday brunch and we were blown away with the quality, selection, taste and overall dining experience. We normally don’t do buffets but this is next
They don't honor reservation times
Made a 12:30 pm reservation. 1:10 rolled around and we were still not seated. We had a lot planned and this put a real wet blanket on our day, so we left. Will never come back.
Bag check in the front has no clear display of what is and
Bag check in the front has no clear display of what is and isn't allowed in the club, resulting in front gate workers to rifle through your bag and take what they feel is not allowed. From our group our gum, and caps of our lipstick were removed
Favorite club of all.
The rating does not do it justice at ALL. Yes, the drinks are expensive, but the atmosphere is INSANE!! I loved the music, lighting, and vibe is insane. Service was fine, nothing good or bad. BUT LOVE TAO!!!!
long review, but I promise you should know this.
ZERO STARS. I've never written a review, but it's needed for this place. For your sanity, do not come here. The worst night ever. My friend and I came because we heard "this was the spot". Immediately the male workers outside wer

The securities are THIEVES . They told me “ you can get your stuff back when you leave “ which was fine with me, I’ve never had a problem anywhere else. But when leaving, they told me that they don’t have my belongings. Never got my things ba

Hong Kong Noodles
Amazing! Thank you, Ethan!!! Great, personable experience. Fried rice, noodles, cocktails, appetizers and the service - exceptional!
Bouncers have a bigger ego than they can handle.
Got told if I was loud again and dancing too much one of them would r*** me. Probably should hire better people. Either way we won't be coming back.

The servers are incredibly rude and condescending and everything is massively overpriced. More concerning though is how I was groped by a man at the bar multiple times and the server and bouncers turned a blind eye while I kept telling him no and pus

I had higher expectations for this place because TAO in Vegas was really fun & one of my favorite clubs in Vegas. TAO in Chicago was extremely crowded, and disorganized. The bathroom lines were so long we were blocking a table sections view and h
Wow what a horrible employee experience.
Especially this one bouncer who is always there. Hes big and always has a smug look on his face. Me and my group of girl friends (5 of us) were sober and dancing and having fun in the vip section, just for the bouncer to aggressively shine the flashl
DO NOT GO HERE ALONE.
Watch your drinks & be vigilant. I would personally never recommend this place to anyone.

TAO Nightclub is hands down one of my favorite spots in Chicago--it's more than just a club, it's an experience. From the moment you step inside, the high-energy vibe, incredible decor, and pulse of the music completely take over. The Atmo
Great Ambiance & Service
Great environment and aura in this place. The lighting was soothing and there was great music playing. We received great service and enjoyed a delicious meal. Definitely going back the next time we’re back in Chicago.
Scammed
Since it was our first time there, we asked for some suggestions. They gave us some of them, and we told them that they brought us whatever they considered to eat. We were four people, but they brought us food like for ten people. Although the waitre
Over 1 hr wait, even with reservation on a weekday
The place is run by a bunch of totally incompetent front staff, we had to wait for over an hour even after having a confirmed reservation on a weekday. Ambience is truly one of a kind and will continue to mesmerize you while you are there. Dessert
great celebration!
We were celebrating my daughter-in-law's birthday and also my son and his wife's first wedding anniversary! Food was excellent and the atmosphere was great! Enjoyed the evening. Lots of vegetarian choices.

I had never been to Tao before, and while I had heard all bad things, I wanted to check it out for myself. But they were right! We went for a DJ set this past weekend. The club itself is pretty cool looking. So maybe it would be good for dinner? But
This spot is always popping, packed and playing great music.
It's my favorite club in Chicago. Highly recommend!
came here for a bachelorette.
we had a table and got to skip the line. the vibes were fun but the dj did remix a couple of the same songs repeatedly throughout the night. bouncers were great and kept our area sectioned off. the line to the bathroom was wild though. i appreciate h

I attended Xandra at Tao night club this past weekend and it was fun. This was my first time at Tao night club. I like how they have bars located at multiple sections of the club. The drinks are a bit on the expensive side, but well, it's Chicago!

I really liked this nightclub the first time I went but when I went this last time I did not. We paid for a section and bottle service. They messed up the charges on the card which caused us to pay an unnecessary amount and then we had to call multip

Overrated Instagram photo spot filled with wannabes and
Overrated Instagram photo spot filled with wannabes and weirdos that gets overcrowded real fast..the bathrooms have the longest lines ever and the attendants treat you like cattle...the restaurant on the other hand is decent. Would not go again ever,
Was celebrating with friends at VIP.
Had great service from Alicia and Ozie. Both exuded great professionalism, providing an enjoyable and elevated experience.
I had an absolutely fantastic experience at Tao.
The bouncer was really really kind and helpful and went out of his way to help me and my friends before we even set foot inside. I was blown away by the quality of service here!
$600 for poor service
Beautiful place but we waited 15 minutes to get a waitress. In the course of two hours the waitress came back twice when I wanted her there 20 times. The food was so over priced.. A complete nightmare. The bill should’ve been $50 and it was 600.
this was the worst place i have ever been in my life.
i got my credit and debit card as well as my cash stolen once i walked in, within 15 min everything was gone. i will never come back here, i am 21 and i would expect bouncers to be there for safety, when i went to the bars to ask if they had any card

Majority of The bouncers are terrible, rude and disrespectful. I would strongly suggest them to be trained with better manners. They walk around with a nasty attitude. Not one has been pleasant. The club is usually boring and expensive to get in. I w

Not as good as the one in Vegas, however it is a really great restaurant. Good food, atmosphere, music and staff. Would definitely recommend this for anyone looking for something a bit more fancy and upbeat in Chicago. The grilled branzino was to die
Connect with users posting reservations for TAO Chicago
AppointmentTrader is a community-driven platform where users can exchange their reservations or leverage their personal relationships with TAO Chicago. Buyers can make informed decisions using automated seller ratings, which reflect past transactions and reliability.
Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience
the user has and how many percent of their transactions resulted in them issuing a refund.
If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to TAO Chicago at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the TAO Chicago page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* PerceptiveWash44, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* PerceptiveWash44 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to PerceptiveWash44 for any questions Peter may have as PerceptiveWash44 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* PerceptiveWash44 now uses their connections at TAO Chicago to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If PerceptiveWash44 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, PerceptiveWash44 receives the $200 reward which is credited to PerceptiveWash44's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at TAO Chicago!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
