The Russian Tea Room was founded in 1926 by members of the Russian Imperial Ballet, becoming a meeting point for Russian émigrés, musicians, and people from the entertainment world. Its proximity to Carnegie Hall made it a hub for artists, directors, and composers. To this day, its Art Deco interiors continue to welcome numerous celebrities and those who wish to travel back to the 1920s.
