The the quality, preparation and taste of the food was nearly surpassed by the service. We celebrated my Wife's Birthday and were not disappointed.

We dined for the first time on Sunday. Very cool place. Our food was amazing. Our service was excellent as well. I have heard for a few years that the food was great and to put it on our list to try, we were not disappointed and will be back.

A large group of family and friends went on Sunday afternoon for an early dinner before a musical at the theater. We had a reservation which made it smooth. Our waitress was very attentive with drinks and even had great order suggestions. A variety of food is on their menu and you're sure to find something you'd like. For a group of 8, we were there for about 1.5hr with drinks, main course, and dessert. The atmosphere is airy and refreshing. A very clean resturant. It was probably 1/3 to 1/2 full and it was relatively quiet which was wonderful.

Alex the bartender and wait staff were super welcoming. It was a Sunday night so the place was quiet. Our party appreciates the extra attention. Good food and nice decor. Highly recommend!

Bernardine’s never disappoints. The ambiance is both warm and sophisticated, making it perfect for our 27th Anniversary. The menu is a masterpiece, with every dish showcasing creative flair. We usually start with a nice glass of wine and some gluten free Calamari (I’m Celiac). We especially love the Filet Mignon, and grilled Emu which are always cooked to perfection. The service is consistently top-notch—attentive yet unobtrusive. Whether for a casual night out or a special celebration, Bernardine’s remains one of our absolute favorites. We can’t wait to return! ❤️

Drinks were excellent. I enjoyed the STIR old fashioned. Our waitress suggested the sliders for an appetizer which was a great recommendation. I really enjoyed the presentation and flavors of the tuna poke bowl. Overall it was a great experience.
