We are Open for Thanksgiving, see site for special menu and hours, but at this time please call for reservation availability."The place where New Yorkers eat"Knickerbocker is known for its great Jazz and its 28 oz. T- Bone Steaks and is a favorite among many celebrities including F. Murray Abraham, Chris Noth and Alec Baldwin. Racheal Ray listed us in her "NYC Favorites" and has praised our Shrimp Cocktail, Creamed Spinach, and of course our T- Bone Steaks.The word "Knickerbocker" itself, says "New York". Upon entering, you’ll know you're in the Village. Its wood paneled walls sport rare turn of the century posters and original caricatures by Al Hirschfeld. Large leather booths line the walls and brass rails accent the 100 year old marble bar, where Charles Lindbergh signed his Trans Atlantic contract.We have survived the times by using the freshest ingredients from local markets, and offering good solid value and quality.

Excellent experience beginning to end. The waitress was kind and attentive, and so was the staff that visited in between. The food and dessert was fresh and tasted amazing. Prices were fair for the size portions that were received. We had a great date night / bday celebration.
