We then split the bill 4 ways between us all and the server was back and forth with our cards and saying not all of them worked. But the other 8 dishes ordered were a let down. Like I say the sea bass satay was the best. The whole table felt the same, wasn’t much taste and wasn’t a wow factor. But the food here was more like take away Chinese. I have eaten in many high end pan Asian restaurants, they are my fave. When the food and drinks did come, the wrong drinks came. We then had a server who forgot what we ordered and had to come back to the table, 20 mins later. When we were seated and we made it clear we weren’t happy they offered to pay for our first round of drinks which I think is the least they could have done. We were told table wasn’t ready, fine to wait 10/20 mins but 1.5 hours seems a bit much! But there is nothing else I can say positive about this place. Aesthetically the place is lovely and the music is great, and the monk fish satay starter is good. If you’re going for just drinks it’s fine, otherwise for decent food I would avoid at all costs MoreĬame here for an evening of food and drinks with friends. The atmosphere was buzzy, but our reason for visiting was just for the food. Service was slow and frustrating, it’s a place which has had its day. We also had some salmon and tuna Tatar and talaki. The Peking duck was like warm, both of which we sent back. Chicken yakatori was warm and covered in a sauce which can only be described as coming from a bottle. The only good thing we ordered were the Singapore noodles, as least they were hot. Prices here are extortionate which I don’t mind paying as long as I’m getting excellent food, but this is ridiculously priced ($9 for ONE piece of sashimi). Our table was booked for 8:30 but we didn’t actually get seated until 9:20, which, when you have been up for 24 hours, and. We had really high hopes for this place and had been looking forward to it for our first night in NYC. what happened to hospitality? Im a manager of a high end restaurant in Manhattan but i was very disappointed in the way my daughters birthday went. I will never ever recommend this place and higher management and corporate should be aware of this and make sure they do something about avoiding these ridiculous situations. It was terrible and I wish I could understand how a place like this could treat their guests with so much disdain. There were so many doors we could have gone but we chose TAO for a reason, our experience was extremely ruined from beginning to end and that is not hospitality. Paid for food that I did not get a chance to eat and 2 bottles of champagne I didn't even get a chance to drink. I asked to call the manager who came and mentioned she was sorry and it was a unique situation, I replied that I was the one sorry because at least I should have been advised because I made a reservation days in advance. I called my server and the server proceeded to mention that she was sorry, but I need to be out by 12:30, because the people from the VMA's were coming and we had to vacate the place. I asked them not to place the mains on the table, but they did anyway. My appetizers come to the table as well as the champagne and 3 mins later my mains came to the table. was my daughters birthday, therefore I ordered two bottles of champagne to celebrate. W e ordered a round of cocktails and proceeded to order appetizers and mains. Had a dinner reservation on Sunday, August 28th, at 10:30pm to celebrate my daughters birthday.
