Knickerbocker Bar & Grill

Hands down, one of my favorite eating establishments ever...and the drinks are fantastic too. Zero pretentiousness & perfect ambiance. 100% quality. Amazing wait staff. Food is phenomenal. Do yourself a favor & get the T-bone steak with mashed potatoes, sauteed mushrooms & spinach, but start with the French Onion soup! For dessert, you'd be remiss if you didn't order the cast iron chocolate chip cookie for two (give yourself 20 mins for this masterpiece to be made to order).

This classic, old New York - where the real New Yorkers go - steakhouse is supreme! The best! A classic dining hall with the absolute best service. Just an old school top waiters and service period full stop. The walls are covered in paintings and signed New Yorker cartoons. There's a piano covered with bottles of booze. The food is tremendous, just top shelf quality everything. My gut was bursting at the seams as I walked out content and spontaneously breaking out into song. Thank you Knickerbocker for this wonderful Christmas experience

Knickerbocker Bar & Grill definitely deserves to be on a short list of best restaurants in NYC. We recently returned there while visiting New York. The ambiance and service and food were as wonderful as ever. Their Caviar pie, smoked salmon and trademark T-bone for two were all perfect. What a joy to see “that you can go home again!” We were also so pleased to see that our favorite Knickerbocker employee,Johnathon, was there. He embodies the quality and beautiful disposition that exudes from this storied restaurant. We also must mention our server, Abraham, who operates on such a high level of attention and care…. He truly made our visit extraordinary. Knickerbocker remains the best steak place in Greenwich Village…. What a joy….and a very easy 5 Star review.

This place was an amazing experience. The staff was really friendly. Food was great and everything was so nice. I also felt like the waiting time was a bit long but that might just be me. Would definitely come back again.

Oh the steak was soooo good. We had a T bone and a skirt steak...yummmmm

Old School Comfort and Class The T-bone for 4 was amazing. Great sides. The food was supported by gracious hospitality and excellent service. The place felt so special. Definitely will go back. In a heartbeat.

Classic old-school steakhouse Knickerbocker Bar & Grill truly stands out amongst the Village, embodying just what New York is about: brilliant food with excellent service and atmosphere. The walls are decorated with paintings and signed New Yorker cartoons, adding to the generally nostalgic vibe. The menu is voluminous, with top-shelf quality dishes to satiate your wildest dreams. One should begin with the caviar pie, which serves as a delectable appetizer that starts the entire meal. A rich and savory option would include the French onion soup to start off the meal. The main course delivers with its perfectly cooked T-bone steak, elevated by the delightful truffle butter. The creamed spinach is also a staple side that works well with whatever steak dish one orders. Excellent service with waiters who make you feel part of the family, adding to the historic vibe of NYC. However, what really completes this atmosphere is the performance of jazz. It's just an excellent location for any special occasion. If you do have room for dessert, the soufflé is an impressive ending to an already impressive menu. All in all, Knickerbocker Bar & Grill is a great dining experience that's well worth the money, especially if you want to go all out and get a taste of old New York in the Village. Highly recommended!

Went here to celebrate Lou's birthday. We had a fantastic time. The server treated us like family, the vibe feels like historic NYC, the food is well worth the price. Our table ordered the classic knickerbocker 28 ounce steaks to share (with baked potato, mash potato and creamed spinach), tuna plates and off menu meatloaf special . We also had calamari, beet salad, cornbread and caviar pie appetizers. Everything was thoughtfully prepared and plated. I would love to come back on a jazz performance night. Highly recommend this place and well worth the price, especially for a special occasion.

Amazing steaks!! Great cocktails!! Has an authentic, long time serving NYC feel. Some things like the Covid barriers between booths could be removed and some corners of the space spruced up but GO for the steaks and ask for Johnathan. He's been there almost 10 years and is always the BEST! Can't wait to get back.

Warm, "old New York" vibe with dark walls and leather booths. Also tables for larger groups. Traditional dishes like onion soup and burgers and salads - all reliable and tasty. For a cozy, warm atmosphere - a good, even festive choice.

Have wanted to try this place for so long and im glad I went. Walked in on a Saturday at 7:30 and got seated immediately and the service was phenomenal and very nice people there. The food itself, the steak frites was delicious I was going back and forth with the actual cuts of steak or this on the menu and I'd say it was worth it. I think this place maybe one of my favorites

We've been coming here since the early 1990's and it's one of the last archetypical New York "steakhouses". Live jazz, good food, East Village location, people who know your name, familiar (as in yummy) food, strong drinks, a solid wine list that's not ostentatious and John who can grant you a prime table on a Saturday night at 8pm. The old Gotham Bar and Grill is no longer, Ray's Pizza is long gone, Balducci's a distant memory, Dallas BBQ - who?, 1/5 Steakhouse, B Daltons, the Olive Tree Cafe, Figaro's and the Rocky Horror Picture Show during 8th Street's heyday as one of the most popular streets in NYC are pure nostalgia, but the Knickerbocker lives on in person, unchanged. Thank you John and Craig for the easy evening. Good food, good wine, good times here.

I walked into this place not knowing about it with no expectations on a Thursday at 6:30 and I found the most amazing old-school steakhouse with live jazz and original artwork on the wall. That is fantastic and the food is amazing. Had the steak fruits and a glass of Cabernet: perfect. The maître was amazing and told me about the history of the place and the service was great. What a pleasant surprise and what a great time I had and I would recommend this to anyone if you're in this area or are looking for someplace to have dinner with friends and family or just stopping in for a bite, friendly upscale jazzy cool atmosphere original Hershfeld artwork on the walls. What a treat will definitely come back.

This place is the real deal. Traditional, New York bar and Grill that is well known by downtown New Yorkers. I have been going consistently for more than 25 years and I've never had a disappointing experience. OK fine. One time they didn't have the arugula pasta that came with the seafood special but I survived. Good drinks good atmosphere helpful and friendly waitstaff and the ambience is great. Fun bonus is the last few times I've been I've seen some very well-known New Yorkers who live locally out dinner. Rarely overcrowded. if you're in New York and you want to see what old New York looks like before everything was designed for Instagram go here.

We usually eat at the bar when we come here. All the bartenders have been friendly. We always start with a perfectly made martini. They make a great ceaser salad and always perfectly cook the filet mignon. A gem of a restaurant

Excellent love the ambience the service is great. Music good jazz. Steaks delicious. I recommend it! Enjoy

This 5th star from us comes from the value! The quality of the steaks we had were excellent and were extremely competitive with the big name places charging 20-40% more. If you want the full fancy uppity steak house experience, go to keens or wherever else, but if you're looking for a badass steak in a pub setting, this is the place! We will definitely be back! Hidden gem!

Amazing food especially the steak! Can't go wrong here just fabulous!Shell Steak I would highly recommend the steak and ambiance a lovely relaxing atmosphere too!

We really loved our experience at the Knick. Everything was tip to tail incredible. Ron helped me organize my 30th birthday there on Friday 3/31 at 8 PM. We worked together for weeks to get the menu right and I really appreciate how helpful, communicative, and honest he was. He is a genuinely nice person and it was great to work with him. One thing that we loved is that there wasn't a minimum spend and no "private party room" fee. This made this much more affordable per person. We did price fix (20% tip included). We ate: family Caesar salads, mini crab cakes (YUM! this was my fave!!!), smoked salmon potato latkes, and T Bone steak. We had a ton of martinis (with extra olives!) and red wine. We really loved our incredible service. The waiters were on the top of their game, especially knowing how difficult my group can be (haha) and how big the group was. We really felt taken care of. They also helped carve up my massive, 12 inch round chocolate cake that I brought in from a Park Slope bakery near my apartment (Buttermilk Bake Shop). I hope they kept some slices for the kitchen because the cake was great. They also played me a little song on piano at the end of the night and I got up to dance. Haha. It was so fun!

Cozy spot with great food and service. Very much liked the French onion soup and the ribs were very good. Everyone was happy with their meal and prices were good. Drinks were basically double size! Very cool

Big fan of this place. Have only been here a couple times since the 1990's, but it never disappoints. A little old-fashioned, but in a comfortable way. The place has been around so long, it's become a classic. We enjoyed all our entrees; I got steak frites and the meat was a perfect medium-rare. Everybody ate everything, so that means we earned dessert! It was a birthday, and the birthday girl wanted the dessert special of bread pudding. Not my first choice, but it was delicious, with raspberry sauce and ice cream. Would gladly go back anytime.

Ordered the 12 oz skirt steak. The portion was generous- probably 16oz. The steak was EXCELLENT !! Cooked perfectly. The best skirt steak I've had in a long time.

The Knickerbocker is back! Great things are worth waiting for. The Knickerbocker does not disappoint. My favorite New York Bar and Grill with a true "Village" vide......with the BEST steak in town. Porterhouse amazing , cooked exactly as order. true NYC iconic institution with incredible food great service.

My friend Holden keep telling me to come here. Finally made it. Nice place. We were greeted as soon as we arrived. Got a nice table. Our waitress was super nice. Place has an old school vibe. Which i like we got nice bottle of wine which was reasonably priced. Here is the food rundown. Got the frisee salad. Very good. Shrimp cocktail was ok. My daughter got the tuna entree. I tasted it. It was good. The children parmesan was a special. It was very good. The steak frites was a miss. Probably should have gotten the porterhouse. Overall a nice place. I would go back. Unfortunately there were a couple of misses as far as the food goes. Prices were fair

All American menu in bistro atmosphere that reopened after the pandemic with quality food and average service.i find myself wishing they were open for lunch as it seems a better place for a mid day gathering than a romantic dinner for two.

This is the second year that I've gone to Knickerbocker for their Passover Seder. They do an excellent job. The rabbi is extremely entertaining and funny and so the Seder is a very pleasant experience. He actually goes through a mini Seder in about 45 minutes. And the meal is excellent. Before the Seder you are given gefilte fish, chopped chicken liver, and matzoh ball soup. And after the Seder you get the main entrée and dessert. I got salmon with couscous and it was perfectly prepared. For dessert I got the flourless chocolate cake which was absolutely excellent. I highly recommend going here for the Seder next year. They sell out very early so go online and register early. I have also eaten here for dinner and for their brunch. Both were fabulous. I wish they would bring back their brunch.

Old School Steak House with old school repeat customers. Although not trendy any longer, a favorite steak house of mine- we only get the T-Bone, and it is really fun to get it for a table of 6. Sides are standard and solid, and always opt for onion strings on top. Staff was on point, and amazing all around. Awesome decore from booths to the bar, and the piano makes everything its the loud music. Wine list is sad, and I could find a bottle that retails over $15, so expect a 300% mark up on a bottle of wine, compared to the standard 100%. Drinks from the bar were strong and came quick. I can't say this enough-I really liked the staff and their interaction with all patrons.

Great old school New York vibe. Jazz combo, great steak, welcoming atmosphere, attentive staff, and music moderately priced. What more can you ask. We've been going there for more than 4 decades. I'm so glad it is what I remember.

This is a classic Greenwich Village spot with the classic "bar & grill" fare, and a bit of their own spin on some dishes. I've not had a meal here that disappoints, and the atmosphere and ambiance is classic NYC Village. Highly recommended, though its staying power is testament to its quality and customer appreciation. Here's to hoping they won't be going anywhere anytime soon.

Excellent service and ambiance. The food is delicious and on some nights they have fantastic music. Highly recommend.

On a par with many of the city's fine steak houses but in a much more casual atmosphere and a lot less pricey as a TBone for two at $100 is what passes for less pricey these days. Taste wise everything was fine. In addition to the above T Bone, we also had a shell steak and a filet mignon. All were cooked to perfection. The salads (Caesar and wedge) and the sides (mushrooms and spinach) were also steak house worthy. Even the alcohol prices seemed reasonable for Manhattan. Definitely worthy of a return trip.

Food is ok, no real complaints. But waiting 1.5 hour for the main course just to find out that the waiter didn't put in your order , so you are the only one not getting food out of a a party of five, that is just annoying. Clearly ruined my night , and I wouldn't recommend anyone going to this sad place.

Came here with a friend Christmas week after hearing that this is the place for killer martinis. The martinis were adequate (the ones I make at home are better!) but the server was absolutely wonderful. The place was packed, festive, and beautifully decorated for the holidays. We did not eat dinner here as there was really nothing appealing for two vegans. Excellent covid precautions were in place and much appreciated. I will go back, but just for the bar.

I never bother to complain online about restaurants but this place is so awful I feel the need to so other people can avoid it. A friend and I went for dinner and waited for 45 min. after the time we ordered- no dinner. We asked the waitress if it was coming- she said it would be a couple of minutes. We waited another 20 min. asked again and were told it would be another couple of min. After another 15 min. we asked yet again and she finally admitted the order hadn't been placed originally which was the main reason we never got it. This is in addition to putting up with AC that barely worked. Why anyone would ever go to this place is beyond me - it's the worst restaurant experience I've had in many years. The best thing would be if it closed down altogether!!! Joyce w.

All consistently good food and not over the top expensive for a steak house. Ambiance was cozy and comfortable in a booth and our server was lovely.

An old school favorite. Been coming for - Almost 30 years and that's a blip on the regulars calendars. A phenomenal T-Bone - both sides cooked medium rare and juicy. So glad they are back from the Covid close. Just hope Americans don't fuck it up and cause another close. A great place to bring a book or your kindle and just sit at the bar order a cocktail or 2 and then a shrimp cocktail and hang out on a blustery day. You won't be the only one... Go just go!

This is one of my favorite restaurants. Amazing T-bone steak and fries. Great value and solid price when compared to other subpar competitors. The staff is also super friendly.

This place gets mad props for a variety of reasons. I've passed by here countless times but never realized just how good it was until I finally give this a try. Their signature T-bone steak was 100% top notch. The way they cook it was more Keen's than Peter Luger, however I definitely thought the T-bone here was better than what I had at Keen's. The flavor, sear, texture and even grease level was just right. Not too heavy and plenty of natural flavor. I can see why many people seem to like this place as their dark horse steak joint. It helps that they also include 2 sides - in my case a very generous helping of mashed potatoes and creamed spinach. The former was excellent and actually pairs very well with their exceptionally delicious home made steak house. The latter was a bit too creamy for my preference but maybe others might enjoy a thicker cream spinach. I also had their popular French Onion soup and I can see why it's quite well liked. The cheese was baked perfectly, the soup was flavorful but not too salty and all in all it was just savory in the best of ways. Last but not least I gave the chocolate souflee a try. It was a very rich and devilish concoction that was well worth the extra toll it took on my stomach. All in all a perfect way to end what was a very delicious meal. The ambiance of the entire place was extremely old school with its wood paneling and overall warm atmosphere. It was packed to the gills at 6pm on a Friday night, and for good reason. Our server was very attentive and friendly. This restaurant really nails it in terms of the overall experience - from the service to the food to the overall memorable ambiance. It's like a slice of old New York that I'm very glad is still in existence and a part of the fabric of the neighborhood. I'll definitely be back.

I've been coming here with my boyfriend for years. I love jazz and it's great on the weekends however I don't appreciate the manager/hosts attitude the last few times I've been there. He's been very rude lately. Not how you treat regular customers that spend a lot of money there.

My friends and I were in the mood for a hearty meal after work. I suggested we head over to the Knicks on a cold rainy night after work. The portions are big & satisfying, so much to choose from dinner, drinks & always friendly service. We all ordered the t- Bone steak dinner with all the traditional sides. The creamed spinach tastes savory; the sautéed mushrooms were buttery & the truffle butter was a perfect compliment. Our server kept an eye on us throughout our stay. The atmosphere has that old NYC vibe that makes the Knick stand out. I'll be back soon hearing Jazz nites are back on Friday or Saturday. I would highly recommend Knickerbocker.

The waiters really pay attention and the food is very good. John who I met May 26 2023 is in charge and makes sure his customers are satisfied. He even thanks you for coming as you leave.

Old time vibe but a very quality forward establishment. Wonderful and professional wait staff and kitchen. We.we're 7 for dinner. I had family from Europe visiting. Different tastes, different ages, what a mess to entertain. The Knick was perfect. Everybody had a fabulous meal. We talked , we ate we drank, it was a wonderful opportunity to rekindle family ties and be well cared for by a truly great American resource. One of our party had a nut and seed allergy. They curated or dinners perfectly so we could eat in peace and not have to worry if that teenager tried my food. It ain't cheap but it was worth every cent, and then some. If we could have adopted the waitress we would have.

The filet was amazing. I tipped it with onion rings. On the side, their creamed spinach and truffle blue cheese fries!! The food was incredible. Very full pours on the wine as well. Will be back with a big group!

I have been coming here for over 20 years, always a terrific experience. Now, I'm very picky; in a high quality steakhouse, I expect great food and excellent attentive service. Knickerbockers delivers, fabulous food, great service, and lovely comfortable decor. Not inexpensive, but certainly not overpriced. If you like jazz, Friday and Saturday nights have a live jazz group. The menu is extensive, with something for all tastes. If you want a truly memorable experience, go to Knickerbockers. Matt. Miller

around since 70s, this place captures old vibe nyc. great service, solid food and big ass portions. pluses- local heavy, comfy booths. - love the weekend jazz dinner - tbone is excellent, lighter than typical steakhouse treatment, so it doesn't knock you out - desserts are excellent - scratch your french onion soup itch here - great environment overall

Thanksgiving dinner was a 10...delicious traditional and creative options in a beautiful festive atmosphere. The icing on the cake: some of the best service in NYC every day no matter what! Gracious maitre'd is the archetype for courtesy and service. Enjoy!

This is one of the nicest places in theVillage to have a drink and a bite to eat. I come into the Knickerbocker around once a week to talk to my friends in a comfortable atmostphere that is inclusive to everyone-the wine by the glass and cocktails are well priced and no problem if you just want dessert or an appetizer. Friendly and professional service. I just wish they would bring back lunch!

- came on a saturday at peak dinner time without a reservation and was seated at the bar - ordered their signature t-bone for 2 (approx $48 pp), came out perfectly rare/medium rare, wonderful marbling throughout, so flavorful and very tender, one of the best steaks I've had in years (better than Charles Prime, Peter Lugar, Palm, etc), came with creamed spinach and choice of potato EACH, so we ordered the fried potatoes (aka french fries) and mashed potatoes, highly recommend getting both - can't remember what the name of the wine was but it was the only cab blend they had by the glass and it paired with the steak very well - it took us almost an hour to get our order in but the bartender was up to her ears in customers so totally understandable and it's not like we were in any rush - I'm kicking myself for not coming sooner, it's been added to the regular rotation, we're going to make it a once a month stop

I have walked past this place for probably 30 years. Had dinner there Christmas Day evening 2019... what a great choice!! While we sat in the window in the bar area... the plush red booths in the dining room were right up our alley; we loved seeing patrons there with their NYT who've obviously been there long enough to earn their solitary pace at those 4 tops. Had the steak for 2... perfectly cooked, charred on the outside, mr inside. Only regret was they were out of their signature item... creamed spinach. We got sautéed instead... pretty damn good. We will be back... this is an old school NYC restaurant / steakhouse at it's finest!

A great neighborhood spot, not pretentious at all, and very comfortable. Wooden tables, a small bar with an efficient, friendly bartender, and usually some interesting selections on the dinner specials menu. Staff is helpful and the cocktails are well done!

Always exceptional. Took kids and they ate like adults bc it was so good, see my pics of their empty plates! The martinis are the best anywhere and the staff are great. The atmosphere is local and NY not too loud and not stuffy. We had a booth in the corner and could watch people and enjoy the music while we ate. Such a great hidden gem, I can't wait to come back again!

I've loved the Knick for more than 30 years. I was there tonight to take my daughter-from-another-mother out to the classic Knick meal - a tender lush T-bone medium rare, mashed potatoes, creamed spinach and the chocolate soufflé for two. It was as fabulous as it's ever been, and our wonderful and thoughtful server Maria made it a special night to remember.

It's the only original spot left in the neighborhood. It boasts of old time feel, Mickey blue eyes has a famous scene inside. The service, food, drinks and ambience were all classy. We dropped some dough. But it was all well worth it.

In a year of consistently awful news, a ray of sunshine appeared. The Knickerbocker will be back! Have been enjoying the Knickerbocker for decades...it's truly unique. The staff is so warm and gracious...and if course professional. And the food is incomparable. Every one of the 100+ meals that I've enjoyed there has been perfect. And the atmosphere...awesome! Welcome back Knickerbocker! Good news! https://www.grubstreet.com/2021/03/knickerbocker-bar-and-grill-reopening.html

5 stars all the way!!! I was planning a large group dinner for my girls birthday and I called up and made the reservation with John and he made it super easy and accommodative for what I wanted! And to top it off they had live jazz music We got a 7:45 reservation and for the most part everyone arrived on time. We ordered a Red and white wine for the table and kept having that refilled. For appetizers, main course, dessert we did a la carte which was nice because this way everyone got to pick what they wanted! We got everything from the Japanese tuna to the t-bone to the skirt steak! Everything came out perfectly cooked as requested and was absolutely delicious!!! If you are looking to host a large group dinner or just go out for two I highly suggest this old school steakhouse that has delicious food and great service! In short: - Delicious food (t-bone is so good) - Great service - Great for a large group - live jazz music some nights - Fair prices

12/3/2022 Had dinner at this restaurant recently , our waiter was pleasant ,but did give impression of need to "Turn over the table". We got our check and before we paid a guest requested a beverage ,we were informed by the Maitre'd that the table was needed for next party and the beverage could be served at the bar . So my advise if dining at this location set your timer for precisely 2 hours or U will be the recipient of a rude & unprofessional Maitre"d

This was the absolute BEST night out I have ever had. I have been to the Knickerbocker once before years ago and it was amazing. So I decided to bring my boyfriend for our Anniversary (He ended up proposing hours earlier in Central Park at Strawberry Fields) so noe Fiancé! We were had a reservation for later but they quickly accommodated us comming earlier. We were greeted by the mistake friendly staff. We were seated at a beautiful booth.our server MARIA was absolutely amazing in every way! Top teir service. She made us both feel so incredibly special. She was eztreamly attentive to us, but also not too in your face. Very helpful and knowledgeable of the menu. Made excellent recommendations. She catered to every request happily and she was never with out her beautiful smile. She really made our time there perfect and memorable. She is exsactly who you want serving your table. If you come in, definetly ask to be seated with MARIA! All in all, the food is divine, the atmosphere is perfect, and the serive in out of this world! Thank Hou Kickerbocker staff and MARIA especially for a wonderful Anniversay/Engagement dinner that we will remember for the rest of our lives!
