Located in the 126-year-old building that was the onetime home of the Chicago Historical Society (and the Limelight and Excalibur nightclubs), Tao features a 275-seat dining room and a 7,000-square-foot nightclub. Dramatic interiors and oversize Asian artwork sourced from around the world (like a 16-foot statue of Quan Yin, the Buddhist goddess of mercy and compassion, which dominates the dining room) highlight Tao’s visual appeal. TAO Group has partnered with Rockwell Group to design the space, with the goal of maintaining the structure’s soaring stone-walls, arched windows, and special geometry and sightlines to offer guests a distinct sense of arrival and discovery.
- The entrance to the nightclub is through a lantern-lit exterior alley inspired by Japanese temple gates.
- There are seating/tables on the stairs.
- Expect celebrity sightings.
- The promo code DISCO is valid for $5 off tickets to Tao Chicago for all events through the end of 2022 with the exception of NYE and Halloween weekend.
