TAO Uptown · New York
The original NYC TAO - giant Buddha, three-level Pan-Asian scene dining in Midtown
Why we recommend TAO Uptown in New York
When guests book a New York nightclub, beach club, or pool day through MyRSVP and ask where to build the dinner around it, TAO Uptown is a name that comes back often from our team. This is the original TAO - the East 58th Street room that turned a Midtown dinner into a full-on scene when it opened in 2000, and the blueprint for the TAO rooms our guests already know in Las Vegas and Chicago. It earns a place on our curated New York shortlist for a specific kind of night: a big table, a loud and glamorous room, Pan-Asian sharing plates, and a sense of occasion that carries straight into whatever comes after. If you want theater with your dinner rather than a quiet tasting menu, this is the pick.
