A plate of huevos rancheros and a glass of bloody mary for brunch at Knock is all you need to have an excellent day. I will say that(on a Sunday afternoon at least) it is almost 95% full of either old bald men or old white haired men, so if you’re a millennial you better bring company your own age!

Here for an event for business. The bar we had the event was just too loud and the food was less than desirable. Since our hotel was only 4 blocks away, decided to just try to find something for dinner as it was close to 9p already. Saw several that had sidewalk dinning, but with lots of people. Walked few more blocks and came to this place. Wasn’t as busy and priced decent. My colleague and I got seated right away. Since we were in Philly, was craving cheesesteak. They had the flat bread version which I got along with an order of shrimp and calamari on the side. We were served with bread first, but it was not very fresh. Food came our within 10min. The fried shrimp was good but the calamari was mostly the head of the squid, which I didn’t care for. Then came my flat bread cheese steak. The flat bread was round like that of a small pizza and was cut as such. The meat and cheese was very stingy with maybe 4 oz meat at most? Didn’t have much flavor and the bread was burnt so I just scrape and ate the topping. For the money, it’s not worth it. Guess I should have checked Unilocal before coming here.

The middle age waiter, with the dark hair has a very nasty attitude. I can tell he doesn’t want to serve me. I don’t know if it’s because I’m a female but he shows his dislike towards me and my girlfriend. The food is pretty good

What a delicious place to eat! Food was heavenly — fresh and loaded with flavor. Beautifully plated, and there wasn’t anything we were disappointed in. Very fairly priced for center city. Waiter was adorable with a perfect personality for service. Highly recommended!

Stopped in while traveling. Nice interior. But your typical gay restaurant. Overpriced drinks marginal food. It was«so-so” – it was one of several places we visited in CC while in town– it was«just OK»

Beautiful décor. Lousy food. OK drinks. Inconsistent bartender service.

I was in Philly last week on Convention for the American Theatre Organ Society. We were taken to Knock by a regular customer and we had an incredible time. The owner, Woody, and his staff welcomed us and made us feel like family. They even sat with us and talked for quite a while. The drinks, atmosphere, and clientle were a delight. They even allowed us to take over their piano room one evening. We went back 6 nights in a row. I will go back. Thanks guys!

Knock is obnoxious. We went here on date night awhile ago and received less than enthusiastic service. The server seemed bothered by our very existence and came over only when I was able to make eye contact with him. I ordered the New York Strip steak with a garlic-cheddar risotto. The steak was ok but to be honest, I make a better steak at home. The risotto was tasty which saves this review from getting 1 star. The prices certainly do not match the food flavor or the service you get here. The other customers were pretentious and snotty. The whole experience was unpleasant. Knock for us is a one-and-done restaurant. I’m not going to give my hard earned money away to people that don’t value their customers and over-value their snippy servers.

This place was great. Had lunch there while in town for a conference. The atmosphere is relaxing and gorgeous. The food was awesome. So delicious.

Beautiful atmosphere with delicious food! Great cherry chocolate bread and the filet was cooked to perfection.

I like this place, and I recommend it. It has gradually improved over the years — yes, I’ve been patronizing Knock since it first opened — and the food is quite good. The salads, entrees and desserts are excellent in fact. I’m sure some of the other reviewers might have come in on an off night, but I will assure you that the«regulars» are devoted to this place and it’s very popular. The décor is attractive and upscale. In the warmer months you can sit outside, café style. Of all the gay bars in Philly, Knock has the best cocktails of all. The bartenders are experts and you don’t have to worry about ordering a Sidecar, a Sazerac, a Mudslide, or a Scarlett O’Hara … they are masters of alcoholic beverages, the drinks are strong, not watered down.

Why come here when there are so many other dinner spots that offer better food, service and atmosphere? Tonight was my last attempt to enjoy a place that lacks in every category.

Always a stop I make after bar hopping for delicious food. James is my favorite server here regardless of how long I haven’t been around he always remembers me! The atmosphere is cozy and relaxing. They sometimes even have someone playing the piano. My favorites here is the fried calamari, the jumbalaya, the sunday prime rib, the sliders annddd gah almost everything! Oh and the knock burger is great. The food is good and the drinks are strong! This place is great.

It’s Sunday morning and your body is going through withdrawal from the lack of alcohol in the past 6 hours. Most people would call this a hangover, but I call it a sign, a sign that you need to get to Knock and have their famous Knock-out mimosa. Like a good workout regimen, day drinking isn’t going to get you anywhere unless you push yourself. This mimosa comes with an added shot of orange vodka, which makes the already beautiful waiters and bar tenders look even better. Who knows, maybe this liquid courage will even push you to find that Sunday afternoon cuddle buddy we all are looking for. Just don’t take mine. Pro-tip: sit outside for extra good eye candy, and to work on your tan.

Came here once a few years ago and now again for my current work conference. Much more down-to-earth and relatively quiet compared to the other bars in the area, older crowd, and friendly bartenders, not crowded at all on a Sunday but pretty busy on Saturday. Had dinner here on the previous visit and it was crowded but fun with decent food. Definitely recommend for the older and more mature crowd with an avoidance of the trashier options in the hood.

I went to Knock last night with a friend and it was a nice cozy bar/restaurant. Our waiter, who I believe was the owner was extremely helpful. We ordered two strong martinis and some appetizers. The southwestern eggrolls were delicious! Almost better than the ones at Chili’s. The avocado ranch dressing was flavorful as well. In the back, they had someone playing Christmas carols on the piano. It put you in the holiday mood. I would definitely come back!

This place is mediocre. The Grilled Steak, Onions and Bleu Cheese flatbread was oily. Not a very large portion. And it was almost cold. The cheeseburger was the same way. The fries were cold and limp. Wasn’t worth the price! The waiter was not the best either. Not very attentive and not very friendly. Maybe a good place to get drinks with friends, but that’s it.

Flatbreads? Sausage ones with brocolli and asparagus with lobster meat, mac and cheese with bleu cheese… how yummy it was! The décor was quite warm and inviting and service was excellent. What a great find in Philly!

Holy moly, considering how classy their interior is, their gargantuan drinks may come as a surprise.(I sure was surprised.) I swear, one drink can easily serve two, possibly three. If you decide to forgo their cocktail hour, there’s ample seating for you to wine and dine the(wo-)man of the week, for brunch, lunch, or dinner. And if you decide to forgo cocktails altogether, get yourself an orange juice and cranberry, then grimace if anyone asks what it is.
