Try the spicy chickpeas with crumbed eggs. Delicious, and one if the most interesting things on the menu.
Of a KindJuly 7, 2011This restaurant comes highly recommended, both by us (have the lamb!) and by Mandy Coon, who loves their bloody mary and the bone marrow. Read more of Mandy's New York recommendations at ofakind.com.
J StandeferAugust 25, 2015Chanterelles on toast, special burger, beef ribs -- all SO good. End it with the sweet peach desert.
Jennifer OngJune 9, 2013Ditch the pancakes and go for the oyster omelette. You won't regret it! Also, go after 230 pm to avoid the line
LogoTVOctober 9, 2012Best brunch in the East Village - but be prepared for a long wait. The Bloody Mary bar is to die for. I love the Chigago Matchbox. - Jon Marcus, Hunting Season
Nicole FormicaMarch 2, 2018Amazing selection of bloody Mary’s. Eggs benny comes with potatoes rossi = A+
Chelsea RenaudAugust 30, 2015Great for brunch but a hit at dinner, too. Spaghetti carbonara; black rice with duck; blistered squid; whole grilled fish.
Fabiano CouraOctober 11, 2014Great brunch! Awesome classic Benedict. Get before 9h45 to get a table.
Duck Breast with soupy green rice and peas. Crispy fatty skin and cooked just right.
BravoDecember 2, 2010I’ve had MANY wonderful meals at Prune, but love to go for brunch for their numerous iterations of Bloody Marys with incredible garnishes. If you’ve got a party of four or more, ask for the only table
Lucia OrlandiJanuary 7, 2015Amazing food, I'll come back to give it another try. But maybe avoid a group of 3, they placed us on the tiniest table for 2 and it was annoyingly cramped.
Navneet AlangAugust 12, 2016You can't go wrong with any appetiser here that includes blue cheese. I know that sounds dumb but trust me.
Angelina ZeppieriSeptember 24, 2015very creative and tasty American food. super small, makes reservations hard to get. worth the wait.
CharlottesOctober 15, 2016Possibly the best Bloody Mary I have ever had. Brekkie not to shabby either!
Katie HollenbachApril 7, 2017Best bloodys! And my new favorite thing to order is the oyster omelette - the remoulade sauce is amazing.
Gregory FisherMay 13, 2019Duck and veal are great; chicken and fish are meh. All vegetable dishes are great!
Shrutika SachdevJuly 21, 2012Worth the wait! The Dutch Pancakes are a MUST! Oyster omelette and huevos rancheros are good too. Steak and eggs a bit too oily...
FantabuousMay 8, 2011Expect to wait a while if you don't have a reservation on Sundays. Had the pancake w/ pear toppings on it. Absolutely mouth-watering and gargantuan! Crisp on the outside layer which is a plus!
Julie WaldMay 22, 2012Insane wait time for weekend brunch, so go next door for a drink while you wait. When you finally get in, order a bloody Mary and the huevos rancheros!
Hannah YangJune 15, 2010fried oyster omelette w/remoulade (hot) sauce n a sprinkle of powdered sugar. SO DELICIOUS, albeit a bit on the small side. along w/possibly the best (meaty!) bloody mary in the city - worth the wait!
amanda berkowitzJune 28, 2019Bacon and marmalade sandwich on the Food Network’s Best Thing I Ever Ate, Although their German pancakes are famous to me.
Jonathan TroutmanAugust 7, 2012Their play on the lobster roll is fun and inventive, but the mussels are where it's really at. Reasonable corkage for the wine geeks out there.
Polina WeitzOctober 30, 2017Good brunch dishes, and an elaborate Bloody Mary menu. They don't take reservations for brunch, so be preparedto wait...
Serena WDecember 17, 2012Regretted getting the "Eggs En Cocotte" brunch item. Consisted of a small ramiken filled with a few chunks of chicken and a poached egg. They compensated the small dish with 4 pieces of toast. SKIP.
Benjamin PalmerSeptember 12, 2013This is one of the best places to eat in nyc. Get whatever sounds fun it's always great
Everything is fantastic at this cozy spot - order a Ghost of Mary and get to ordering every dish on the menu
Colin BrittonSeptember 30, 2016Great seasonal menu. Amazing burnt orange brulé. Fried oysters. Whole fish.
Maya 🐟August 16, 2014You want a Monte Cristo sandwich and a bloody bullshot. Olives cost extra and are unnecessary.
Denis SosnovtsevFebruary 18, 2015Aggressively average brunch food for New York. At my table, the steak and eggs turned out to be the best choice by far.
Sean DalyJune 18, 2017Above average brunch - the soft eggs were very good, bacon could have been better and the potatoes were a little oily. The pancake, however, is exceptional.
EpicuriousAugust 24, 2010Brunch is the highlight for this East Village classic, but don't expect an omelet - robust dishes like grilled merguez with oysters and nine kinds of Bloody Marys are de rigueur here!
amNewYorkOctober 24, 2011Few restaurants in this town do this quintessential brunch cocktail better than Prune. Bloody Mary newbies should start with either a classic or the Chicago match.
stephanie hodgeDecember 13, 2009brunch brunch brunch. ten different kinds of delicious bloody marys and the food is amazing. if you have 6 + people, you can sit at the secret table downstairs, and bypass the hour wait.
The two hour wait for brunch is worth it. Go for basically anything, the carbonera is fantastic, as is the eggs benedict. Lunch and dinner are superb too.
Chris CarellaJuly 7, 2012This is an awesome place to grab breakfast or brunch. Get there 20 minutes before they open to avoid a 30-60 minute wait.
Erin Schulte CollierNovember 23, 2014This is the platonic ideal of a restaurant. Hard to recommend just one thing..it undersells and over delivers in every way
BonSeptember 22, 2019Still a solid brunch after all this time. Wait times are much more reasonable around 11am, ~20 mins
Daniela CuryMarch 11, 2011One of my favorite places in NY. Amazing brunch, great bloody marys, good burguer with a special herb sauce, lovely dinner...
