TAO Chicago is a 7,000 sq ft nightclub on the second floor of a historic 126-year-old building at 632 N Dearborn in River North, sitting above the TAO Asian Bistro restaurant. The room is built around a towering 20-foot Buddha statue, a koi pond, and theatrical lighting — the Pan-Asian aesthetic is unmistakably TAO Group's signature. It's a high-production, high-spend room that draws a dressed-up, bridge-and-tunnel crowd alongside Chicago's bottle-service regulars.
Open Friday and Saturday nights; strict dress code (no shorts, caps, athletic wear, or tank tops, 21+). Expect a bottle-service-heavy crowd, significant cover on weekends, and guest DJs mixing Top 40 and hip-hop. Arrive early if you want to avoid the line — later in the night it gets busy and VIP tables dominate the floor space.
This upscale Chicago nightclub has a strict dress code designed to match its high-end atmosphere. Guests should wear fashionable, dressy clothing—no athletic wear, tank tops, flip-flops, baggy chains, or sports jerseys. Baseball caps, oversized bags, and professional cameras are also not allowed.
