Tao Tao beef has got to be one of my most favorite foods on the planet! If you've never tried it before, you're missing out.
I can't get enough of the chicken salad here, and the sweet and sour pork, and although I don't personally like prawns that much, my friends have gotten into fights over the honey walnut prawns, so I guess they're good =)
They have a nice bar at Tao Tao's too. The Mai Tais are a favorite.

I've been going here for 30 years. Always great. Until about 2 years ago. New management? New cook(s)?
All I know is that you never know whether you're going to get the "good" Tao Tao or the "bad" Tao Tao. And the bad is really pretty bad......
Pros: when it's good, it's very good
Cons: when it's bad, it's very bad

This Chinese restaurant was recommended to me by a friend. They have a chicken salad with nuts which is really tasty. Almost all the dishes we ordered were very good, especially the kung pao chicken, beef with broccoli and chow mein. The service could have been a little bit better, considering I had to keep calling over different waiters in order to get things. The price was competitive.

The decor has changed, but the food is still great. Tao Tao beef, chicken salad, hot and sour soup and the prawns in lobster sauce are incredible. Service can be spotty, on a Friday or Saturday (as most resturaunts are) but the food is worth the wait. I have eaten here dozens of times and have friends that have as well and I have never heard of the food coming out cold as others have stated.
You have to try thier famous Mai Tai's. Best I have ever had. Be careful though, they are loaded and if you drink a couple, you will be too. I believe the record is 7, set a few years ago. GO FOR IT!!!!
Pros: The food and Mai Tai's
Cons: VERY busy on Friday and Saturday nights.

I just don't get why people love this place- I've eaten there 4 times and was repeatedly less than impressed. After ordering take out and getting a cold and inedible lychee pork that was hard as a rock and dried out (as if it had been fried way too many times and then sat for days), I vowed I was never going back to Tao Tao. But then when a friend's b-day was held there I went back, which turned out to be a big mistake since I became terribly ill that night. Bottom line: there are tons of authentic and delicious Chinese restaurants in the area- this just isn't one of them.
Pros: location, atomosphere, service
Cons: food!

I've been going to Tao Tao since 1984. My grandmother recently passed away and this was the place we had our holiday parties. Their Chicken Salad, and Tao Tao Beef, are to die for. I now live in Texas and crave this food. Unfortunately I only get it once a year. Fortunately, I have the recipe since Grandma was a friend of Franks.
Try it... You will definitely like, and love it!
Pros: Chicken Salad, Tao Tao Beef
Cons: a little slow at times

This place has lots of big tables and is a good place for groups to meet. I like the Chinese chicken salad. Last time I was there the service was a bit slow, but the food was good.

I have been going to this place since I was a child. lately I
have noticed the food is not up to standard. My last 4 times
the salad was soggy the food was greasy. Hope it get better.
