Drinks were excellent and our server was amazing. The staff has a cool, laid-back energy, and the restaurant was spotless: polished without being pretentious. The chashu special appetizer and the salt and pepper chicken were both delicious. The one miss was the jellyfish tiger salad, whose noodles were so tough to chew it felt a bit unsafe to eat. We'll definitely be back!

One of the best in upscale dining. We got the 3 and 4 course meals but we were served bonus amuse-bouche throughout that it is really more like a 7-course meal! It is one of the very rare times in our experience where every single dish was creative and delicious. And the price is reasonable given the excellent quality! Service was great and unpretentious, and, of course, the view was fabulous! They even gave us a surprise birthday dessert! Will be going back for sure!

We love Tolo! The food is consistently delicious. And the seasoning and textures excellent - love the spice and heat, just the right amount without overpowering the fresh and handpicked ingredients. And then there is the wine offerings… curated beautifully - a splurge and worth the treat!

This restaurant was recommended to me by not only chat GBT, but also a family member. I made a reservation as we were visiting New York City and wanted to dine in Little Italy for dinner. They were very accommodating, as we arrived an hour before our reservation and got a perfect table outside it was a beautiful night and everything was just lovely. The food, the service, the ambience, we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect experience!
