The Oz Farm LLC

After her father Warner’s death in 2001, Jennifer inherited the keys to Tavern on the Green, a restaurant synonymous with the Golden Age of Dining and Nightlife of New York City. Under her stewardship, the iconic restaurant lived out the last decade of its life cycle until it tragically shut its doors for good in 2009. While he lived, Warner LeRoy often quoted the great American director Elia Kaza, who once told him: “You’ve got to go out on a limb, and if you don’t fall of the limb: you haven’t gone out far enough.” He instilled this maxim in his daughter from a young age, and she consistently repaid his wisdom with daring, resilience, and success. Jenny Oz then followed the example of her forebears and turned pitfall into opportunity, spurred ever onward by the history that runs in her veins. While it may have been the end of an era for New York society, the closing of Tavern on the Green in fact ushered in a new beginning for Jennifer Oz LeRoy.
