THE VENUE

Beauty & Essex has an innovative design that starts in the restaurant’s entrance, a well-curated modern-day pawn shop replete with a saxophone, boombox, quirky artifacts, vintage treasures, and an eclectic array of “one-off” pieces of jewelry. Continuing past the pawn shop, guests encounter a grand, circular staircase wrapped around a two-story custom chandelier, followed by an extravagant dining room. Whether you’re planning an intimate dinner, a high-profile film shoot, or an enchanting reception, this versatile venue will exceed your expectations in every way. Tao Group Events offers a comprehensive range of in-house production services. From A/V services to entertainment, décor, and talent sourcing, we have the expertise and resources to handle all production needs.
