Love this place so much, I usually go there a lot with my friends to have a nice and chill evening. Music is amazing and the whole restaurant may be small, but it's clean and well decorated. Would only recommend, if you love to have spicy Sichuan food or a cheaper alternative to a 18€ hot pot.

I headed to this place after I discovered that Sawasdee Thai restaurant across the street nearby…read morehad closed. I saw that this place had popped up when I searched for a Thai restaurant. So... don't know who made the first listing, but the first thing you should know is that this is NOT A THAI RESTAURANT. I found one yellow curry dish - that's it. This is a Chinese wok restaurant and buffet. I was pretty disappointed to find this out, and I am going to ping the folks at Yelp to see if there is a way to change the category of the restaurant. Okay. On to the review. Don't know what happened when @Aline visited the place, but if you like Chinese wok restaurants (not my favorite), then this place was just fine. (Note - I hit the place about 6:15 PM. I expect if you went there at 9 PM you might have a different experience.) If you have not been to a wok restaurant before, it might be helpful to explain the concept. You get a plate and go to the buffet. You choose raw meat, raw vegetables, different sauces, etc. Put them on your plate, (tip - there are little binder-clips at the table with a number on it. Take your clip with you to the buffet and...) attache the binder-clip to the plate, and drop it off at the wok chef. He cooks the ingredients you have selected, and then they bring the cooked meal to your plate. I was looking for Thai because I had eaten several heavy German meals in a row and was looking for something light. I chose some thick noodles, shrimp, onions, mushrooms and green beans. I dropped the plate at the kitchen and about 5 minutes later, a perfectly cooked meal appeared at my table. It was just what I was looking for. Ingredients on the raw buffet looked very fresh and recently prepared. Food tasted very good, although not my style - don't like the amount of oil used in wok cooking. But again, that is one of the reasons I am not very hot on Chinese food. If you like Chinese, then there is nothing wrong with what they served - in fact it was quite good. On the raw bar they also had beef strips, lamb chops, fillets of a white fish and salmon, and squid. All looked fresh, and none of it was "funky". I took a trip to the cooked bar where they had a beef stir-fry with onions, a roasted duck, fried shrimp, and a chicken in yellow curry. I tried a little bit of all of these, and they were okay, but not great. BUT - I say again. I don't like Chinese much. You might really like this place. They had a large desert selection with ice cream, bananas with a chocolate fountain, some sort of cake, leche, and fresh fruit. All seemed good, but I did not try anything. Would I go back? Only on those very rare occasions where I actually want Chinese food. Would I go back if I liked Chinese food? Definitely. One other thing - this place is very walkable from the "dangle-bahn".

Worst asian restaurant ive ever been to. The food was old!…read moreAnd more: many dishes were over and they didnt replace. What was left from the sushi was terrible: the rice was bad and the salmon was there for so long that it was already dry. The crew was also super slow. For this price I'd rather go to China City!

FOOD & DRINKS While they offer menu items, I wouldn't…read moresuggest you get those. Just get the all you can eat hot pot like everyone else. You have different options for the broth which also includes a vegetarian variant. The selection of seafood, meats and veggies is large enough to make everyone happy. They even offer some dim sum and snack items on top of your all you can eat hot pot. That said, most of the dim sum items are not good if you compare it to a dim sum specialized restaurant but since its all you can eat, you can give some a try. I just wouldn't recommend it with a few exceptions like the desert or snack items. Lately they even offer a lobster broth and one serving of premium beef, a bit of lobster and crab. The meat and seafood items have ok quality. I wouldn't say its the best I've gotten at an all you can eat place but decent enough. SERVICE I would say the service is good. Very friendly and always helpful. The first time was the best though. The owner took the time to greet us in person, explained everything carefully and just showed a lot of care. ATMOSPHERE While the previous location was kinda small, the new restaurant is quite large with lots of seating available inside and outside. The best about this hot pot is that everyone has their own pot. It is like your own personal fondue. No need to restrict yourself to specific broths when you come with a party that also includes vegetarians. RATING I have been here when they still had the location in the city center. Then I visited them when they newly opened at a larger place a bit outside of the city center and since then I have been here on a few celebration occasions. The rating is based on all the experiences I had so far. They improved over time in terms of service and overall quality.

Normally, when we go out to eat, we try to find places that serve food that is very difficult to…read moremake at home. This place is exactly that. We got there right when they open and so we were seated right away. We ordered a few small plates and a big fish hot pot. The big fish, hot pot was really good a lot of flavor and you can also add a lot of other toppings to it. It was a little spicy, but not too bad. The service is really quick, and seems like it gets packed very quickly to with a lot of people. The sauerkraut fish was the perfect spice level with sourness and flavored. This is a nice casual spots to go in and eat a nice meal while hanging out with your friends.

Unsere Bewertung basiert darauf das wir selbst Asiaten sind und weltweit schon viel Dim sum…read moreprobiert haben. Alles war insgesamt durchschnittlich bis unterdurchschnittlich. Das beste waren immer noch die frittierten mochis mit Fleischfüllung. Die Grünen vegetarischen dumplings die in den Bewertungen auf Google gehyped worden sind waren absolute unterirdisch. Die Garnelen belle hatten zu wenig crunch draußen und waren leider auch nicht die besten. Da ist dschunke deutlich besser. Natürlich haben wir nur frittiertes bestellt, aber nach dem Essen haben wir uns gefühlt wie die letzten Menschen. Service war nett. Ich würde hier nicht noch mal herkommen, auch wenn wir nur überwiegend Dim Sum probiert haben. Da gibt es deutlich bessere in Düsseldorf. Bestellempfehlungen sind: alles was mit Garnelen zu tun hat stecken lassen. Und nur die Mochi Bälle mit Fleischfüllung waren ok aber Heavy. Die Garnelen Bälle aufjedenfall skippen genau wie die Grünen dumplings.

Damn. Well that dream's over. Living most of the year in a U.S. city with the third largest Chinese populace, you get to know the difference between good dim sum and bad dim sum. Especially when your ex-boss ordered it for lunch every day of the working week to share with employees. Broken down, there are 37 dim sum restaurants within an 8 mile radius of where I live. In Düsseldorf I believe there are only 3. That said, I've ordered everything on the menu at Tao. Some I like more than others, but overall most are good. It's not cheap by U.S. norms, but if you're missing decent-to-good dim sum, I believe this to be the best one in NRW.
