Following last year's sold out debut, Chef Eli Kulp and the Delicious City Philly Podcast team, Marisa Magnatta of WMMR and Dave Wez of FeedingTimeTV, return with the next chapter of The Tasties, Philadelphia's premier chef and restaurant awards event. This one-of-a-kind night celebrates the culinary and hospitality professionals who continue to make Philadelphia one of the best dining cities in the United States.
The Tasties return on Sunday, February 1, 2026 at Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia. VIP guests begin their evening on the red carpet at 4:00PM, where the excitement builds with photographers, media, industry pros, and supporters gathering to share the moment. For the Full Experience ticket holders, doors open at 4:30PM, where you will walk the red carpet and be greeted with a delicious cocktail as you enter the ballroom.
At 5:00PM, guests take their seats for a live ninety minute awards ceremony that highlights the very best of Philadelphia food culture. The event features a custom designed stage, meaningful stories, emotional moments, and playful skits by local actors that bring the spirit of this community to life. Tables are set with small bites and snacks, along with wine service, creating a warm and celebratory atmosphere.
After the ceremony, the night opens into a large multi-room celebration that transforms Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia into an immersive world of food and drink.
