• Farm to table • Upper West Side
Booked 61 times today
A Michelin-recommended Italian restaurant on the Upper West Side, Sempre Oggi is driven by the market — shaped by the season, the farms we trust, and what arrived that morning. We believe there is beauty in simplicity: house-made pastas, a signature roast chicken, and a kitchen that lets great ingredients speak for themselves. The room feels like a Milanese apartment — casually elegant, stylish, and comfortable in its own skin.The bar opens at 4 for aperitivi. The dining room opens at 4:30 for dinner. Brunch Saturday and Sunday beginning at 11. Ten minutes from Lincoln Center and directly across from the Beacon Theatre.

    The food is excellently prepared and the service is first-rate. Most outstanding is the incredible wine list, especially the wines from Burgundy, expertly curated by Max, the sommelier. Max is exemplary with comprehensive knowledge of an unparalleled wine list.

    Always love returning to East Pole, best brunch in the UES. The locally sourced and fresh food is so delectable, including the French omelette, huevos rancheros, etc. East Pole has the nicest and most accommodating servers and staff. The ambiance is warm and comfortable, reminiscent of a country inn. So highly recommend!!
