Tavern on the Green is closing 12/31/09. To me Tavern on The Green is a national treasure. Why can’t someone save this special place? Hey Donald this is your city how about stepping up to the plate? I had brunch here recently we enjoyed the food, service and the ambiance just our first visit 30 years ago. Better hurry, not much time left. Click here to go to the Tavern on the Green website or here for the article in the NY Times.
Tavern on the Green is a restaurant located in Central Park on the Upper West Side of New York City, in the United States. With 2007 gross revenues of $38 million, from more than 500,000 visitors, it is the second highest-grossing independently-owned restaurant in the United States (behind The Venetian's Tao restaurant in Las Vegas, at $67 million).[1][2] Of the several dining rooms, the most famous is the Crystal Room, which features windows overlooking the restaurant's adjacent garden in Central Park.[3] Tavern on the Green will have its last seating on December 31st 2009. It is auctioning off its interior decorations and closing its doors due to bankruptcy.
How is it possible to gross 38 million and not be be solvent? Sounds like bad management to me!
