We have lived here for 6 years. Shortly after arriving we would hear people talk about Bern’s and we went to celebrate our anniversary. It has been our go-to restaurant for celebrating very special occasions and we have always had amazing service and excellent food and drinks. We have never even eaten in their main dining rooms—we always sit at the bar and have the best time. It is an experience and any cocktails I have ordered were perfect down to the last sip. We don’t mind splurging here because we know the meal will be on point. We split a Chateaubriand with the house salad, french onion soup, and baked potato. My husband does not like onions but he eats every drop of the soup. Everything is deliciously fresh. Their dessert room upstairs is a must. A kitchen/wine room tour is a neat experience I highly recommend.
What can you say about Bern's that has not already been said. Much more then a resturant, It is an experience not to be missed. Be sure to get reservations and get there as early as possible, all parking is by valet. I had 5:00pm reservation and that have us plenty of time to thoroughly enjoy dinner. Of the many things that sets Bern's apart are the service (which is second to none), guided tours of the kitchen (6000 sq.ft) and wine cellar. The later is one of the largest private cellars in existence. Our tour guide said they had almost a million bottles available. Wines from the mid 1800's to today. Must be seen to be believed. Following the dinner, we visited the dessert room. Each table is enclosed within its own private booth. Be sure to have reservations here too and be prepaired to wait during peak times but it is well worth it. The attention to every detail and finally, the staff is amazing. Be sure to include Bern's for your next special occasion. You will not be disappointed.
Came here for my anniversary with my wife and loved everything. It was a very nice experience. Food tasted excellent, wine was delicious, and service was top notch. We loved the tour of the kitchen and then ending the night at the dessert room with the live piano music.
Bern's is not a dining place, it is more of a dining experience. You start with an immense list of wines to choose from and the prices are up to par to any other good restaurant, then the steaks are so good they melt in your mouth. For the side dishes, I loved the onion strings. After all that, we visited the kitchen and the wine cellar. And for last we went upstairs to the dessert restaurant. We were so full and pleased with the experience that we promised to come back for more
