St. Cloud, Charlie Palmer at the Knick

The lunch menu is compact and can differ from what is listed online. Guests point to a pork belly that is crispy without being too fatty, alongside a squid in ink sauce that earns high praise. Even the fried chicken, which looks dark and over-fried on arrival, is tender and flavorful enough to justify its premium price. Service is fast and friendly, though the entrance inside the hotel can be difficult to spot when scaffolding is up outside.
