If you are looking for a high energy New York restaurant with exceptional food and magnificent service then Tao NYC is just the ticket. This exceedingly trendy Midtown Pan-Asian restaurant and lounge club features a dramatic bi-level space, complete with a giant Buddha statue, minimalist decor and interesting food. Housed in a former movie theater, Tao makes the most of its soaring ceiling, exposed brick walls and intimate banquettes. In addition to the Buddha, there's plenty of bamboo, silk upholstery and backlit screens. The food will transport you to another world — the menu takes Chinese, Japanese, Korean and Thai dishes and adds a touch of New York flair for good measure. There’s plenty of sushi on offer to cater for the uber chic fashionista alongside epicurean delights such as wasabi crusted filet of beef and Crispy Chilean sea bass skewers and Meaty dragon tail spare ribs that will satiate even the heartiest foodie. After dinner the bar is perfect place to people watch (or have eyes on you!), with a wealth of signature cocktails prepared by expert barmen who make tom cruise look inept both as a bartender and aesthetically too.
