User Rankings for Tao

View Listing
Upon approaching it from inside the Venetian, where it's part of the Grand Canal Shoppes, you'll know Tao because you'll see the word written in an Asian font between two enormous red rectangles above a menu that's highlighted by beehive lights. Behind the left rectangle is the Tao retail store. Behind the right rectangle, meanwhile -- in the first of many nods to the authentic Asian culture that's so prevalent in the restaurant -- are a series of moon gates surrounded on each side by filled bathtubs adorned with floating red and yellow rose petals. Candles sit in the center and on either side of each tub, creating ethereal lighting. Moon gates, originally a structure in the gardens of wealthy Chinese nobles, have many different spiritual meanings. For example, the gates' sloping roofs are reminiscent of the half moon of Chinese summers. At Tao, the gates create a tunnel leading into the restaurant. After making your way through it, you'll arrive at the hostess station, which opens into the lounge area.
