Our anniversary dinner was cancelled last minute by another Portland restaurant and we were fortunately recommended to try East Ender. We got a fantastic table, great personalized service, and some of the best food we have ever had. The ricotta gnocchi were magical, the creamed kale was velvet, and the crab casino was amazing. It was a phenomenal experience top to bottom. Absolutely worthy of sitting at the top of the many dining experiences we've had all across the country.

Friendly and fantastic experience. Underrated for Portland. While everyone gushes about the same restaurant in Portland over and over, these guys should be getting the same attention. Better and more genuine by far. Lot of heart and soul at this establishment.

Ambiance and drinks were great, along with the service. The food was good but not great. The scallop risotto lacked flavor. All together the experience was great, but the food was a tad underwhelming.

The food was tasty but a $20 burger it was not. Also had the pork shoulder which was super delicious. Drinks were perfect and our server was attentive.

We went for Sunday brunch with high hopes which were sadly not met. One hamburger with fries and one grilled cheese with fries. These are standard easy to make meals! The grilled cheese was really small and flabby, the hamburger lacked flavor. Was it the chefs day off - maybe. Portland has an excellent choice of places to eat including "Duckfat", right next door to East Ender which is better in every way, and I would head there instead.
