About the Event:
A popular Asian bistro by day and sultry lounge by night, TAO Uptown easily has bragging rights as a premier mega-restaurant, sophisticated cocktail lounge, and full throttle nitery. Stroll into TAO Uptown’s oasis and be met by a stocked bar full of your favorite spirits.
This warmly lit, tri-level space combines sensual décor and premium amenities to deliver parties that are talked about for months after they occur. A 16-foot Buddha instantly impresses, hovering above a reflecting pool of swimming Japanese carp. Candles twinkle behind him, and plush greenery, silk screens, and woven light fixtures add zen to the entertainment citadel. TAO Group boasts that TAO Uptown is “the largest and most popular Asian restaurant in New York City.” That’s a bold statement, but we’d wager that’s the truth. Frequented by celebrities such as Nicole Kidman, Tom Cruise, Ricky Martin, Robert DeNiro, and Sir Anthony Hopkins and members of the Yankees and Giants, it’s clear that New York’s elite rely on TAO for an unparalleled experience. Nestled between Midtown and the Upper East Side, right off of the elite Fifth Avenue, TAO Uptown is in the prime location to live up to its iconic status. Impressive square footage aside, this space is nothing short of grand. Initially built in the 19th century as a stable for the Vanderbilt family, Restaurant Business’s Top 100 restaurant has been turned into “an Asian temple-like space.”
