The Tao in Vegas is just as nice as the one in NYC. The huge Buddha, decor, space, and ambiance make this place a great one to dine in. Oh and thanks to my fellow Yelpers to whom I was able to verify what my girlfriend told me about if you have dinner here, you'll get in free to the club after wards.
9 of my friends and I had dinner here at 6:15 PM on a Thursday night (A week of so before our Vegas trip, I had been going back and forth with the reservation manager Maria, who was very easy to deal with.) Service was excellent! Drinks were being refilled and plates cleared left and right, without us feeling rushed. I ordered the Chicken Pad Thai ($19) which was good but spicy. My boyfriend had the Kobe Beef ($88) which was just delicious! And just like at the NYC Tao, at the end of our meal, we were served chocolate flavored (I think?) fortune cookies with fun & naughty fortunes!
To make sure you get into the club free later that night, ask your waitress for a "LINE PASS" stamp. This will allow you to both skip the long line, as well as get in for free (for both guys and girls). DEF worth it to have dinner here for both the great food, nice ambiance, and guaranteed comped admission to the club!
As for the club, it's big! At first my friends and I hung around the second floor (when we arrived at 11:30 PM dinner was still being served on the main floor so there wasn't music playing) but it was PACKED here; took forever to get a drink at the bar too! On this floor there are go-go dancers on mini stages, as well as beautiful ladies in nothing but rose petals in bathtubs. There are also a couple of women massaging each other. You'll be sure to find all the guys staring here. lol After a while, we headed up to Tao Beach which was also decorately nicely. We liked it there better since it wasn't as packed and since it was outdoors it wasn't as hot! When we were leaving, I discovered that they even played music on the first floor (more Hip-hop) which I enjoyed more than the other 2 floors (which were playing more Pop, House, Top 40)! Overall an awesome club with a couple floors to choose from, each with different DJs!
