Jason Strauss’ Post

In our industry, a few things are as emotionally draining and taxing as opening a hospitality venue. Between the mental rollercoaster of negotiating a deal, the pitfalls of creating the concept and design, the endless hours and late nights of training a new team in culture, and gracious hospitality, all while having the whole boat row in the right direction. I am proud to say that I stand shoulder-to-shoulder and side-by-side with the best team in the world, Tao Group Hospitality. This team not only had the emotional intelligence and perseverance to not only open 1 but 10 new venues this year in multiple markets. A herculean feat that very few companies in our industry can accomplish. As I look back at the year, seeing every department’s hard work, energy, and execution, I am still blown away and humbly honored to work with such amazing people. Which venue is your favorite addition to the #TaoGroupFamily? 1️⃣ Stanton Social Prime in Vegas 2️⃣ Cathedrale Vegas 3️⃣ Hakkasan Riyadh Saudia Arabia 4️⃣ Ling Ling Dubai 5️⃣ Lavo London 6️⃣ The BoTree Bar London 7️⃣ Hakkasan Istanbul 8️⃣ Casadonna Miami 9️⃣ Luchini Vegas 🔟 Chez Bippy Vegas #hospitality #hospitalityindustry #grandopening #2023year #yearinreview

I don't see NYC in the list - when the time comes, consider www.aikito.co. Our team and our platform literally fixes the "emotionally draining and taxing" part!

Well done Jason Strauss 🔥 I feel privileged having worked as a sub-promoter for you and your amasing team of humans via the days of Lot 61, LAVO, TAO, so many others! Just thinking back is a serotonin kick in the arse! Dunno if u remember me? I was a peon! 🙃 Still everybody got 1st class treatment in you and Noah Tepperberg's organisation! Not surprised by your meteoric success over the years! #MoreIn2024 🔥 #nightlife #hospitality #happynewyear
