If there for brunch, get the hash browns side. They are in fact smashed potatoes and the most delicious potatoes ever.

Another great meal at The East Pole. The food, of course was excellent. The service is top notch. Highly recommend.

East Pole is such a joy to have been able to celebrate my birthday. They have great craft cocktails, lovely Sancerre, always the most delicious food, from appetizers to dessert choices with a daily special fish from the Chef, and superior servers with a wonderful atmosphere. Definitely a wonderful choice for dinner or brunch here on the Upper East Side!

We were seated inside but were able to move to an outdoor table before we had ordered anything. Indoors is kind of loud. Outside, you hear city noise, (traffic etc) but it's much easier to talk. Food is consistently delicious. Cherry pie was amazing! Waitstaff is very kind and accommodating. Kyle, the host, is a doll.

Very good salmon tartare appetizer. Main dishes (limited menu, not very exciting) were mediocre, and outrageously expensive. Skate was served with a salad on the same plate as if it were a brunch item at a less upscale place - $52 for the skate which is at the lower end of the price scale if you walk up to the fish counter at Citarella. The pasta dishes were also not a hit in our group. Nice location, nice space, but tediously overeager waiter for whom everything on the menu was perfect, and poor, overpriced food. Not sure that I will be returning.

A perfect go to after a busy day! The food and ambience are always perfect. Edamame hummus is a must try.
Brian & team run a tight ship! We have been ongoing time fans & the consistency of quality makes this a very solid option to brunch, lunch, dinner or... make it ip!

Out of curiosity I ordered the blue spirulina chia seed pudding and was blown away by the subtle sweetness of the coconut yogurt combined with the fresh fruit and nutty granola. I would absolutely recommend that dish! The banana bread was warm and beautifully moist! I would however stay away from the fresh omelette as there was too much spinach and a slight garlicky/fishy taste throughout the omelette. The French toast is delicious and definitely a flavor bomb! I would recommend getting it to share as it is quite rich and sweet. All in all, the ambience was lovely, the staff was incredibly kind, and I would recommend this place for a nice weekend brunch to anybody who wants nice scenery, kind people, and a satisfying bite.

Fabulous service and the most delicious brunch! My family ordered a variety of choices from a French omelette to the chia pudding, and everyone was happy!!The bloodies were delicious! The service was excellent and the waitstaff was extra friendly and knowledgeable.

Overpriced burger on a stale bun. Fries were average at best, and slightly undercooked. The tap water was great though,
