Crab tostadas, Chicken enchiladas, Margaritas

#10
Cafe Atelier
7.6
A Tribeca cafe-florist hybrid that’s more about a gentle, aesthetic pause than a hardcore bagel destination. The bagel play works best as a supporting act—grab a simple bagel-and-spread combo with coffee, then lean into pastries if you want the strongest payoff from the case.
Must-Try Dishes:
Bagel with cream cheese, Smoked salmon-style bagel build, Pastry from the case (best add-on)
What Makes it Special: A cafe-and-florist setting that turns a bagel stop into a calm hang.
#11
Upon The Palace
7.6
An upscale Tribeca Asian-fusion dining room where wings come as a spicy starter rather than the headline. It works best when you treat the wings as the opening act, then shift into the kitchen’s broader Chinese-and-sushi menu in a room that leans dressier and more occasion-friendly.
Must-Try Dishes:
Spicy Chicken Wings (6 pcs), Peking Duck, Sushi & Sashimi selection
What Makes it Special: A dressier Tribeca room where spicy wings kick off an Asian-fusion spread.
