    Our recent visit to Tao was a mixed experience, largely shaped by the service provided by our server, Alexa. Unfortunately, her attitude and approach to customer service left much to be desired and significantly impacted our evening. Service •Initial Interaction: Alexa appeared disengaged and uninterested in offering food recommendations or making us feel welcome. It felt as though our presence was more of an inconvenience than an opportunity for her to provide excellent service. •Order Delays: We waited nearly 20 minutes before she took our order, and the process felt rushed. Despite confirming that our starters and mains could be served simultaneously, the dishes arrived sporadically, creating awkward moments for our party of five. When asked about the delays, her response was dismissive and unprofessional, blaming us for not making our expectations clear, which was both inaccurate and unnecessarily confrontational. •Tipping Interaction: At the end of the night, Alexa’s approach to handling tips was highly uncomfortable. She took it upon herself to choose the highest percentage of gratuity without consultation and then hovered intrusively over guests as they adjusted their tips, even making comments about the amounts. This behavior was inappropriate and made the entire group feel uneasy. Other Staff On a positive note, the rest of the staff upheld Tao’s reputation for hospitality: •The host and entrance staff were polite and professional, setting a welcoming tone. •The gentleman who seated us was courteous and well-dressed. •The bus staff were polite and respectful, though they could benefit from additional training to streamline their work. Overall Experience While the ambiance and professionalism of most of the staff were commendable, the experience with Alexa significantly detracted from our evening. Tao’s brand is synonymous with high-end dining, and unprofessional service like this is out of step with their standards.

    Servers were super rude! Restaurants wasn’t busy and yet they kept bothering my table about clearing items. It was super annoying! Then when asked if we could order more drinks after we closed the tab, passive aggressively told to go to the bar. I won’t be returning !

    Great food. We ordered so much from small plates to entrees to dessert and the drinks delicious. Stumbled upon this place by accident and will definitely have to come back.
