text: Came for dinner at Tao hoping it would be similar to the NYC location. Vegas was better in terms of service: arrived on time for our reservation and seated immediately and the servers were friendly, efficient, and extremely attentive. The atmosphere and decor is interesting and fun, and plenty of big tables for large groups. \n\nOn the other hand, Tao Las Vegas is not so good with the food. Same menu and in fact, we ordered several of the same dishes(salmon nigiri, peking duck spring rolls, chilean sea bass, black pepper filet mignon with udon) but they just didn't taste fresh and as the hubby says \"it tastes very Vegas\" (translation: food made for the masses). It's a fun place for the ambiance but if you are there for the cuisine, there are too many other great places in Vegas to try. I will save my next visit to Tao for my next trip to NYC.
