I've been going to Bern's for about 10 years whenever I am in Tampa. I visited over Labor Day weekend after not having been there for about 3 years. A few things have changed, but overall, it's still an experience that's worth every penny! Valet parking is now $5 + gratuity. I seem to remember this being complimentary once upon... more

Since my first experience at Bern's many years ago, I never really understood why it got such high reviews: the food is just OK, so I figured the rave was more about the service and experience, which was warranted on my first two visits. Having opted for tried-and-true places over the years, I decided to give Bern's another go for... more

We had a late reservation and were seated in the red dining room downstairs. Hostess was pleasant. Our waiter arrived in a timely fashion, served us cocktails. He was fine. The wine steward ignored our criteria for an Amarone (we wanted Old World Style-big and earthy and dirty) and brought us a delicate, elegant Amarone, wich was a nice wine... more

I resisted going to Bern's fearing the cost would be outrageous. It turned out that, as upscale steak houses go, it's a bargain. Not only do they offer steaks for 2, 3, 4 or more people at about 38.00 per person, but they come with onion soup, salad, veggies and potato. The food was delicious, service friendly, and it was... more

When me and my wife went to Bern's we were shocked at the service we recieved. When the waiter brought a salad to my wife it had a grasshoper in it that jumped out when my wife turning it over. When we called the waiter over he took the fork and stabed the grasshoper and put it back in the... more

I had last gone to this restaurant 20 years ago, which happened to be my first date with my first wife. This time, I went with my second wife. I found the steak I had to be excellent, but not AMAZINGLY good. I would give it a 4 out of 5. The service was excellent. The crowd is mostly 20... more

Bern's has style, taste, service, and quality! There are several rooms with varying decor. Our waiter was very knowledgeable of the the extensive menu and wine list. The steak was quite simply delicious! The side vegetables however, carrots and butter beans, were not. The dessert room upstairs adds a little trendiness to this upscale restaurant. We enjoyed a delicious banana... more

The best steakhouse I've been to (sorry, Chicago). Most steakhouses aren't worth the money in my opinion, but Bern's has the goods. My previous favorite steak house was Charlies in NOLA. Bern's has impeccable service and high quality food. Desserts a work of art and the bar is fabulous. The ambience is great (though when we went I could smell... more

Berns is a landmark, forget the cost, the service and quality of food is always good. Plenty to choose from if you don't want Steak too. The dessert room upstairs is a great addition to an already famous Restaurant!! more
