I had a good time at Tao; fun to dance on the stage with the dancers. We were there early and from what I gather, the time you go definitely has an affect on your experience. We got our free drinks around 11 (got in for free by getting stamped at dinner) and we got to avoid the lines too. They played fun music, but i do have to agree that once it starts getting packed and you're forced down to the dance floor, the whole experience got a lot less enjoyable. I understand that clubs make a ton of money through table service, but there is no reason to compromise the breathing ability of your dancing patrons. Once on the dance floor, I was smush dancing, because that's what you end up doing with such a tiny floor and no where to move. We stayed for a couple of hours and left...it was fun and I would go back...I just wish that I didn't have to wear heels.
