In a trendy, upscale neighborhood like Tribeca, Upon the Palace is betting that family tradition\u2014not just trendy aesthetics\u2014keeps New Yorkers coming back to those round tables.<\/p>\n

The restaurant\u2019s mission is more than just the food offerings. It honors the cultural traditions of Chinese dim sum and aims to fill, as the staff says, a gap by offering authentic and modern Chinese cuisine to locals in Tribeca and the Financial District on Wall Street, as well as corporate clients.<\/p>\n

\u201cI grew up here in Chinatown, I came here when I was 9 years old,\u201d said Barry Huang, manager of the restaurant. \u201cAs I have grown up in a Chinese family and tradition, dim sum is a very important type of food because every Sunday when we have family day, that\u2019s when we go out to eat dim sum.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cDim sum to me is part of getting the family to come together and spending quality time together,\u201d he added. \u201cOf course, for Mother\u2019s Day, we want to use that as a way to share love with the most important person in the family.\u201d<\/p>\n

Keeping tradition in Tribeca<\/b><\/p>\n

At the Palace, the restaurant operated as an Indian restaurant and an authentic Chinese restaurant for more than two decades.\u00a0 Now, the restaurant is welcoming a menu that blends classic dim sum with trend-driven dishes appealing to both longtime fans of Chinese cuisine and younger diners looking for something new. A key essential of New Yorkers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI personally grew up in Chinatown, so I personally know how important the cuisine is,\u201d Huang said. \u201cIt is also very hard to find a good Chinese restaurant in Tribeca right now. If you look at our menu, we have a very wide selection of Western and authentic Chinese cuisines and dim sum.\u201d<\/p>\n

Signature dishes include soup dumplings, truffle pork and shrimp shumai, roasted pork buns, chicken lettuce cups, sizzling beef, Imperial Chicken, and steak options like wagyu and ribeye\u2014less traditional, but popular with guests.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople are always looking for something trendy,\u201d Huang said. \u201cYou\u2019ve got to put the authentic and trendy together and see what works.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

Honing the dim sum experience<\/b><\/p>\n

At the center of the restaurant\u2019s concept is its in-house dim-sum station, where guests can watch chefs hand-roll dumplings throughout the evening.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe station is right here,\u201d he said, pointing toward the front-facing kitchen counter that was once a sushi station.\u201d \u201cAt 5 p.m., the chef will showcase the dough, as well as prepping the soup dumplings, shrimp dumplings, pork dumplings, and vegetable dumplings in front of guests.\u201d<\/p>\n

The interactive center station is the restaurant\u2019s main attraction.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have guests asking questions,\u201d Huang said. \u201cThat is what I want to bring to Upon the Palace. We want to bring the dim sum chef in front of the house and share the experience of the process of how he makes each dumpling.\u201d<\/p>\n

The restaurant\u2019s menu also highlights traditional dim sum staples, including har gow \u2014 crystal shrimp dumplings wrapped in translucent dough \u2014 shumai made with pork and shrimp, and char siu bao, steamed buns filled with roasted pork.<\/p>\n

\u201cDim sum is a very important part of Chinese tradition,\u201d Huang said. \u201cWe always have it at a round table to spend family time together.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u200bFor Mother\u2019s Day, Upon the Palace is offering a $45 all-you-can-eat dim sum experience that blends authentic Chinese and Western dishes with a modern dining experience, bringing family and friends together.<\/p>\n

The Mother\u2019s Day promotion, available Saturday and Sunday, allows groups of four or more to dine together for 90 minutes, with every fourth guest eating free.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the menu we have right now, it\u2019s not a really big dim sum menu, but it has a good selection,\u201d Huang said. \u201cI don\u2019t want to overprice it. It\u2019s good for family size.\u201d<\/p>\n

As restaurants across Manhattan compete for diners, Upon the Palace says hospitality remains its biggest priority.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cFor me, it\u2019s all about the dining experience,\u201d Hunag said. \u201cFor a first-time client, I will make sure I greet them and make sure my waiter or waitress gives them the best whole experience \u2014 the quality of the food, the ambiance, from the minute they sit down and leave the restaurant.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI want the client to remember the server\u2019s name, the name of the restaurant, and tell a friend or family member they had a great time at Upon the Palace.\u201d<\/p>\n
