A24, OpenTable, and Square joined forces to host nationwide Industry Night screenings of the highly anticipated upcoming film Tony. In the spirit of the film, these complimentary screenings celebrated the often unsung heroes who are the backbone of the hospitality industry and culinary community – servers, dishwashers, line cooks, maître d's, busboys, and bar staff. Front-of-house and back-of-house staff from across OpenTable and Square’s extensive restaurant network and other local restaurants were invited to enjoy an evening together. This nationwide event took place across 25 markets, hosted by notable chefs.
Hosts included Michael Schwartz of The Genuine Hospitality Group, Ashley Christensen of Poole's Diner and Death & Taxes, Gabriel Rucker of Le Pigeon and Canard, Stuart Brioza of Atomic Workshop, James Bailey of Majordomo, Pablo Vidal of Momofuku, Donnie Madia of One Off Hospitality, Chad Houser of Café Momentum, Rachel Yang of Relay Restaurant Group, Brian Howard of Sparrow + Wolf, and more.
