Upon the Palace

Step downstairs and slip into Epang Lounge, Upon The Palace’s basement-level hideaway built for cocktails, celebrations, and late-night energy. Tucked beneath the main dining room, the lounge feels like a moody, glamorous escape: a speakeasy-like setting anchored by a full-service bar, backlit and framed with plush seating that invites groups to settle in, toast, and stay awhile. At the heart of the experience is the bar program, designed to elevate everything from casual meetups to full-blown parties. Expect craft cocktails and a deep beverage bench featuring rare sakes, wines, and premium spirits, including standout options like baijiu for guests who want something more adventurous than the usual menu of predictable pours. Whether you’re planning a birthday blowout, a company happy hour, a post-dinner turn-up, or a private celebration with friends, Epang Lounge is built to feel special without trying too hard. On select nights, the lounge comes alive with live jazz, with rotating musicians setting the tone from smooth and soulful to lively and celebratory. It’s the kind of soundtrack that makes a night feel curated, not chaotic: the perfect balance of atmosphere and momentum, with a room that naturally shifts from cocktail lounge to party mode as the evening unfolds. Hosting a larger group? The downstairs space can accommodate up to 80 guests, making it an ideal choice for semi-private and private events where you want the intimacy of a lounge with the impact of a nightlife-ready venue. Add in Upon The Palace’s event experience and multiple bar capability, and you get a seamless setup for celebrations that feel polished, photogenic, and effortless from the first round to the last song
