Every time we come to Bernards, the service, food and drinks are great. If you like spare ribs, order the center cut, if you like mai tais, order the top shelf mai tai, you won't be disappointed.

Don't let the name foo you - this is one of the best Chinese restaurants around, owned and operated by Bernard Leung. I was there two days ago for a shopping lunch with my wife. Everything is delicately prepared to order - this is not a quick food stop - so the meats are amazingly tender, the veggies are still crispy, and the rice or noodles are steaming warm and fresh in flavor - nothing is reheated and or stale. Their scallion pancakes are legendary for a reason - crisp on the outside, moist and chewy inside and exploding with flavor. I don't often get out to Chestnut Hill, but when I do, Bernard's is my first choice for lunch or dinner.

This is our go-to Chinese takeout place. The food is of good quality, not too salty and not too sweet. However, on one or two occasions out of the numerous orders we've made, all the dishes were a bit too salty for our taste. The food is a bit pricey, especially if you order fish dishes.

Last night we ate at Bernard’s for the first time- I had heard great things about the ribs there- ok - let me start by saying there is a $3 price difference from the website to the restaurant- more at the restaurant- and they were good but definitely not life changing! And definitely not worth $25/order - the last rib was taken away before we got to finish it - also the lo mein was $2 more at the restaurant- when I inquired about the price difference he said the website was probably not updated- not sure that I believe that - also the service was not that friendly and we felt rushed- did not even get a pot of tea!!

Not a frequent eater of Chinese food as I find it often too greasy. The cod and the beef at Bernard were fabulous. Great wait staff and good recommendations.
The fine details in their service had me at hello! Bernard’s not only offers a great menu, but it has the best service I have seen in Boston for a long time. We love their food and order carry out often; but I am now hooked on having a proper sit down meal with them.

We made the mistake of ordering takeout from here, and let me tell you, bland doesn't even begin to describe it. The Pad Thai? I wouldn’t call it Pad Thai at all. It was more like a sad plate of noodles desperately trying to be something they're not. Barely any sauce at all.
When I called to express my disappointment, the person on the phone explained that although it doesn’t *taste* like Pad Thai, it’s their “interpretation” of the dish. Oh, and don't expect a refund – they don't do those, no matter how bland or unpleasant the food is.
With so many fantastic Asian restaurants around, you’d be doing yourself a huge favor by steering clear of Bernard’s. Unless, of course, you're into tasteless food with a side of pretentiousness. In that case, it's perfect.

Very elegant and upscale Chinese restaurant. Prices are reasonable considering the area. The food was all great. The service was point on. Very attentive staff. My fiancee and I will be back in the future. I am glad that a nurse at BWH recommended your food.
