Reviews for TAO Uptown in New York, NY
Amazing! Ambience was a definite 10/10! The attention to details in keeping with the Asian theme was on point and goes beyond... the big Buddha statue. Food was great!!!! So much flavor and portions were bigger than I had expected. Drinks good as well! Iloved the mule! Officially one of my faves in NY. Price point was good as well Read more
This place lives up to the hype. The food was amazing. Definitely on the pricy side for Thai food but keep in mind your paying... for an amazing ambience with great friendly service in the city so worth it in my opinion. The martini drinks were on point. Iwas against going but I’ll definitely be back. They are also on restaurant week. It’s a must try if you like Thai food! Read more
The food was decently good. Truthfully you can get the same taste in Chinatown for a lower price. The sushi taste what it should... taste. The cocktails were pricey. It’s mostly for the vibe of the place. Book reservation for the place cause it does getpacked during rush hours. They do charge $10 per person on your card for the reservation. In the end they minus it from thetotal of your bill. It would be hard to split the bill that way since the person who booked the reservation, already has beencharged. If you’re sitting in the upper floors then it’s a lot of walking up & down the stairs for the bathroom. Their giantfortune cookie dessert is unique. Inside, it comes with prefix fortunes that doesn’t make any sense. Read more
Celebrated my graduation here, I kind of wish you could give half stars my rating would be more a 3.5 stars, the service was... lacking and some what rushed and the server neglected the celebratory note that was given prior to meanwhile the table next tous got full celebratory gestures. The food was mediocre, nothing to yell home about, he said his salmon was subpar and I had the3way pork fried rice which was meh ????… the ambiance was okay, it gave confusion, some people really dressed up while otherswere regular. The best thing was the pot stickers and chicken dumplings which I didn’t get a photo of????. May return, butI’m in no rush. Read more
The ambiance was great. Waitress was friendly. Everything we ordered was good. My family and I have had a lot of Chinese food in... our life. So it wasn’t mind blowing for the price. I suppose it’s because we were in New York hence why everything waspriced higher then usual. Maybe a place to go without kids? (Kids can be picky). No real complaint. Just I think not a placeto take your kids to. Read more
The place is nice but food in not special. I won’t say the price for the food is equivalent to the taste and quality. Same... with the drinks. Service is also not big thing. It was nicer the lady at the bathroom that the waitress or the host. I would sayonly the dessert was good. Read more
Overall a nice place with a great atmosphere and ambiance. The food was good, but at times fell flat for how much it cost. The... desserts in specific were nothing special. I was a big fan of the miso salmon. Also, the service was quite bad— I felt likethe server rushed us, was quite rude, and never came to check in on us. Read more
I loved this appetizer, it tasted so delicious with the softness of the spicy tuna and crispy rice blending together in each... bite. The presentation of this dish was stunning. And it tasted as good as it looked. It was so soft and yummy! Even paired withthe ice cream, it wasn't too sweet but perfect. But unfortunately, for the meat dishes, the sauce was extremely salty, and thedish did not come with rice or anything that would balance out this saltiness. Read more
