text: I went to Tao with three friends and we were very disappointed in our experience.   We were rushed through the entire meal.  The server kept hovering around the table to take our order even though we were just seated.  After we placed our order, he forgot to bring one of the appetizers.  Then, our entrees were brought out before we finished our appetizers.  We were asked about dessert before the table was cleared.  It is unusual for four women not to want dessert, but we were just not up for any with the remains of dinner in front of us.  We did like the atmosphere.  The food was good, although I wish my meal, the Roasted Buddha Chicken, was a larger portion.  Overall, we were really looking forward to a nice night and meal, and Tao did not measure up due to service issues.
