Celebrating a birthday at The TAO was an epic experience. We didn’t need to hit a club to enjoy great hip-hop music, and we could still hear each other talk comfortably. The appetizers were so satisfying they could have been a meal on their own, making the main course feel like a plus. It’s definitely a fantastic spot for a date ⚡️

Absolutely incredible experience. This was our first time dining at Shanghai Terrace and won’t be the last. Best Kung Pao I’ve ever had. Everything we ordered was great and the service was superb. I’m still thinking about dinner last night. Can’t wait to go back.
