"Chef Melissa Rodriguez offers an approachable menu with a focus on wood-fired dishes. Highlights include baked shells and a custom-designed 12-foot Mibrasa wood-fired grill." - Kevin Chau
"Jeff Katz and chef Melissa Rodriguez have teamed up with Tao for the reinvention of what had been the two-Michelin-starred Al Coro space. Go here for the scene in the opulent dining room or at the buzzy bar. Order from the raw bar cart and a starter like the cherrystone clams; the seafood spaghetti ($40), lamb chops ($65), and a collection of grilled vegetables like caraflex cabbage and broccoli rabe." - Melissa McCart
"A 24,000 square-foot restaurant that opened in a space previously occupied by Del Posto, in partnership with Tao Group, chef Melissa Rodriguez, and Jeff Katz." - Melissa McCart
"The Chelsea space that used to house Del Posto and Al Coro has been taken over by the Tao Group, with food from the chef behind Al Coro. Expect herringbone floors, plenty of red velvet, and Italian-ish food that ranges from baked shells with black truffle jus to a 50oz porterhouse. " - will hartman
"Big cushy booths are particularly inviting, as is the alluring aroma of a wood grill at this elegant revamp of the old Del Posto space by the team of Tao Group, Jeff Katz, and chef Melissa Rodriguez. Consider dishes like ember-roasted potato croquette with caviar and crème fraîche; or smoked and marinated oysters. For mains, there are dishes like Dover sole for two with toasted nori butter and caviar; or a rib-eye with balsamic bordelaise." - Melissa McCart
