TARA MANCHANDA EVENTS is a boutique event planning and production studio based at 231 W 39th St, Suite 202, in Midtown Manhattan. Rather than operating as a traditional restaurant, the firm specializes in designing and executing bespoke private dining experiences and elevated celebrations at partner venues throughout New York City. Clients engage the team for comprehensive planning—from venue sourcing and floor plans to culinary logistics, service staffing, rentals, lighting, and onsite production—ensuring a seamless, hospitality-forward experience.
Private dining is fully customized around the client’s brief. The team collaborates with preferred caterers and chefs to curate tailored menus, including contemporary American, Mediterranean, South Asian, plant-forward, and globally inspired options, as well as wine pairings and craft cocktail programs. TARA MANCHANDA EVENTS supports intimate dinners and boardroom gatherings, milestone celebrations, and sophisticated cocktail receptions, with capacities determined by the selected venue. Tastings can be coordinated by appointment, and the studio emphasizes polished service, thoughtful design, and guest comfort.
While there are no on-premise dining rooms at the Midtown office, the studio provides end-to-end event management, including vendor coordination, floral and decor direction, audiovisual and lighting design, furniture and tabletop rentals, photography/videography coordination, guest logistics, and day-of execution. The result is a cohesive, design-led experience where culinary excellence meets meticulous production.
Ideal for clients seeking discretion and high-touch service, TARA MANCHANDA EVENTS is well suited to executives hosting private dinners, brands planning launches or press events, and families celebrating life’s important moments. Engagements are scoped to the project, with proposals tailored to event size, menu ambition, and production detail.
