Why go
Choose TAO for a high-energy Hollywood dinner that can turn into drinks without a venue change. The Pan-Asian à la carte format works for groups, birthdays, visitors who want a dramatic room; it is less suited to quiet dates or tasting-menu expectations. Plan around shared plates, sushi, dim sum, sake or beer in the lounge.
