From the Editor

The Highlight Room is TAO Group Hospitality's 16th-floor rooftop atop Moxy Lower East Side — a 19th-century pleasure garden aesthetic by way of central olive tree, red velvet, paper lanterns, and Bowery skyline views, sister to TAO's original at Dream Hollywood. The format is late-night-scene rather than high-end-scene: 4AM hours Thursday through Saturday, DJ rotation, cocktail pitchers for the table ($28 for 8-10 drinks; $225 for 24-30), $5 rose happy hour. Cocktail program credit goes to Erin Davey under TAO Group corporate beverage operations; no independent bar credentials (no N.A. 50 Best, no Spirited Awards). For a Lower East Side rooftop tuned to late-night scene rather than craft cocktails — the room and the 4AM hours are the editorial substance.
