Boasting enviable corner views overlooking Times Square, Charlie Palmer at The Knick is the hotel’s signature restaurant with menus created by Chef Palmer exclusively for The Knickerbocker. A gem among Midtown restaurants, Charlie Palmer at the Knick offers market-driven menus for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

The restaurant’s adjacent lounge offers a menu of lighter fare, and, in a nod to the hotel’s legacy as the rumored birthplace of the martini, an exceptional cocktail program featuring the signature Knickerbocker Martini and inventive new favorites.

    I’ve been here several times and always had a nice experience. However this time it was a bit off. Bread was a kind of stale; scallops had too much sauce and were somewhat salty and music was too loud in the restaurant area, considering there was a nice, small live band playing better music in the bar area and competing with the piped in music.

    This is a restaurant on its way downhill, unfortunately. Don't know what happened but the staff is definitely weak - don't know what a dry martini is, dropped (yes, dropped) a bottle of 2014 Opus One and didn't know how to treat such a fine bottle of wine. Tables are starting to show wear and tear. Not good. Used to be a great go to spot for business dinners but not anymore.

    It was very good. High energy bar and quiet restaurant. Higher quality everything than I expected right on 42 Street and Broadway. Only issue for me was having two restaurants with similar names within blocks of each other. I wanted to be near the American Airlines Theater and thought I made a reservation for Charilie Palmer Steak but in fact it was for Charlie Palmer at the Knick.

    We had a nice breakfast here on Thanksgiving, though we were not staying at the hotel. As always, the food was very good. Service was average. While we will definitely return on our next trip to NYC, I wish they would update some of their seating as I was on a bench seat that sank and I felt like a small child eating at the adult’s table.

    We shared the pre-theater prix-fixe menu, all very tasty and served at a nice relaxed pace (we arrived at 5:45 for an 8 pm show on a Friday night). Highlights included the warm watercress and garden pea soup, the juicy and tender chicken paillard, and the spring meringue desert with citrus salad and strawberry broth. For drinks, the smoked, bourbon-based black pearl is quite the entertaining production, beginning with a smoke-filled 4-liter Erlenmeyer Flask straight out of the Addams family! All in all, a very pleasant evening for two!

    We chose Charlie Palmer's before we went to New York and what good choice was made. It was quiet enough for us to have conversation, the surroundings were comfortable and elegant. We all had the Knickburger and this was delicious. But the highlight was that we were presented with cake as a joint 50th birthday celebration. The staff were very attentive and looked after all our needs. Our gorgeous waitress especially.

    Cocktails are of a high standard, attentive and polite service from knowledgeable staff. The food in the restaurant is that of a high end bistro, and delicious. Lobster and filet mignon both consumed with blissful noises and tongue-rolling ecstasy. Great wine list - also a very good “by the glass” choice. Decor and atmosphere harks back to 1920’s speakeasy decadence. This is by both measures an intimate dining location, and a place to see and be seen - not an easy act to pull off. Of course, this all comes at a price. 2 cocktails, plus dinner for two with wine was over $500. But you do get what you pay for, and it was worth every cent.

    Good place, not too noisy which means you can have conversations. Excellent and attentive service. Food quality varied which is why the food part doesn’t get full marks - my food was very good but another diner in our group ordered his steak medium and it came out overly well done. Other than that everything was good.
