In Short
From Spain to Thailand and back, this busy corner has seen many concepts come in go. The most recent seems to knock it out of the park with an extensive redo that focuses inward with dark paneling and a clubby feel. Cuisine is creative New American and entrees include venison and crab surf 'n' turf, pasta with poached lobster and tea-smoked duck breast. Those with traditional palettes will find classics such as yellow-tail tuna and New Yorkstrip steak.

What could be bad about having the door opened for you, being greeted by Woody or his other host, being escorted to a seat at the bar, getting great bar service, and having friendly chats with your neighbors? I simply love Knock! The service is outstanding. The bartenders are attentive, friendly and pour excellent drinks - which is challenging, given how busy Knock can be. The bar decor is lovely and the restrooms are clean. I've not eaten a full meal at Knock, though I've had the lobster flatbread at the bar, which is incredible. Knock is a gem. Other bar/restaurants could learn a lot from them.
