- JJessUpstate New York •2 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoHad a lovely first experience at TAO. They have a beautiful lounge you can wait in and get drinks. The ambiance of the restaurant is dim, intimate, and elegant. Drinks were delicious and good size for price. My partner and I got a special that included an appetizer, entree, and dessert. Both price and portions were very reasonable. The food was excellent. Service was very quick. Our waiter would only look at and communicate to my boyfriend, which was a bit odd. However, he was kind and helpful. Will definitely come back.More infoTAO UptownPrice: Expensive• Pan-Asian• Midtown East•4.4
- JJohnMississippi •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoI picked this restaurant by looking at online reviews. I could not have made a better choice. Our reservation was on time. We walked in, sat down and were immediately greeted by our server. Emily was her name. She was without a doubt, one of the best servers I have ever had the pleasure of working with she treated my wife and me as if we were her only customer and we were the most important people in the restaurant. It was truly a special occasion for us. The food was everything that she had said it would be and everything that I read online. It was fabulous. We took her suggestions for some of the dishes we got and every suggestion she made was fantastic. I will go back to Carmines anytime I’m in New York City.More infoCarmine's - 44th Street - NYCPrice: Moderate• Italian• Theater District•4.6
- JJuliaVIPJacksonville / Northeast Florida •33 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoGood range of choices on menu. Handmade pasta is delicious. The house salad was not as tasty as it sounds on menu. Tiramisu was assembled table side, the freshness of the espresso dip and marscapone made it the best tiramisu I've had. The table for two next to the bar was very noisy for conversation. Service was friendly and helpful.More infoPiccola Cucina UptownPrice: Expensive• Italian• Upper East Side•4.8
