    Das ist ein sensationelles Restaurant im Herzen von Hollywood. Es ist schlichtweg ein Gourmettempel, es wird bestes Essen serviert, sehr freundlicher Service, einfach ein tolles Ambiente. Einziges Manko wäre vielleicht der Geräuschpegel, aber alles andere passt.

    Food and service was great. Especially for a Friday night. We got that at 9:30 and stayed til closing. The vibes were just that good. Kitchen was backed up due to guest size inside, however, our serve brought out complimentary appetizers to compensate. I would definitely eat at TAO again. Also, it was my birthday a few servers wished well me well. Great ambience and service on a Friday night.
