Get bottle service to truly enjoy Tao..period.
It's definitely true what every single person here says.
1.)You will be pushed and shoved and stuffed like sardines--not just in the dancefloor--but getting everywhere
2.)Drinks is also hard to get and $$vegas priced$$..so either sneak in a flask..(lol) or if you are with a group, bottle service will be much better and you will have an actual place to sit and avoid the cattle of drunk sweaty people stepping on your already sore feet)
My ideal club is where there is actual space to be comfortable/dance, sit & rest my tired dancing feet while checking people out(haha) and I can get my drink on easy..and not have to fall in line FOREVER to get to the bathroom...
Spectacular decor, frequent celebrity sightings, Tao beach & beautiful dancers are definitely worth the star points and to just check out this super club..BUT Both times I marveled at Tao--I always couldn't stand to stay long or enjoy the night because of the chaos. =\
