The only issue I had was I ordered the emu mid rare, but I received it med well. I let the server know, but I still ate the emu. Other than that, everything else was great and the all the food tasted delicious.

Hands down, our go to for a good filet mignon! The service, atmosphere, wine selection, and desserts are tops! We've always had a great and delicious experience at this place! From date night, family in town, graduation, retirement celebration, or just because, Bernardins is great!
Cute spot with great food, including unique finds like their Emu dish. We were a large group and all of us enjoyed our meals. Our waitress could’ve been more attentive as she kept forgetting some of the drink orders.

Amazing food each time I come. I can never be disappointed here. I recommend every single dish on the menu. The Foie Gras is top top and the service is always 5 star.

Delicious food! The Black Sea bass or barramundi was prepared perfectly and had a great blend of flavors. The lamb chops were also divine. Ate inside for the first time and love the atmosphere in the historic house. I also love sitting out in the outdoor enclosed area as well.

The food, drinks, and service were exceptional. It's evident that the restaurant has outgrown their current footprint. In order to address their parking situation, they need to add valet service.

Always outstanding food and service! Jay is a superb wait staff and she was helpful in making recommendations. We had emu entrée and grouper special; both were delicious and very nicely presented.

Celebrated some birthdays this weekend and this place did not disappoint! Food was absolutely amazing and service was perfect. Can't wait to go back. Thanks Bernardin's!!!

Lovely spot, delightful, ambience outstanding service. Food was quite delicious. If you have mobility challenges, this is not an easy place to manage. There are uneven bricks and if you're on a walker or a wheelchair this place is unfortunately not for you.

This was an early dinner reservation prior to attending another function that evening, and parking was very easy at just before 6 pm The service was joyful, knowledgeable and attentive. Fellow Guests encompassed age 20- 80 and the dining room's noise level was pleasantly low. It has an elegant atmosphere - not a ripped jeans and tank- top place, but casual to elegant dress code. Our family and friends will love to came back here again.
This was our first trip to Bernardin's and it will not be our last. Without question, dinner was the best meal we have enjoyed in our 20+ years living in the Triad. Our Manhattans were made to perfection and paired nicely with a generous plate of fried oysters we ordered as a starter. The oysters were fresh and fried beautifully. For mains, my wife had the lobster special that included a lobster tail, lobster ravioli, shiitake mushrooms and shrimp along with a champagne cream sauce. Who knew that lobster could melt in your mouth like that! My choice was the lamb chops, which came out perfectly seared medium rare and almost tender enough to cut with my fork. The kitchen was kind enough to allow me to adjust the sides served with the lamb, which gave me a chance to sample the gnocchi and wilted spinach. Everything on the plate was delicious. Wine pairings complemented the mains. Coffee and bread pudding proved to be the best way to end this incredible dining experience. It is also important to recognize the excellent service provided throughout the meal. A return visit is definitely in our future.

Food was delicious, but the service was really quite amateurish. For a $200 meal for 2 I would expect much more. We had to ask for S&P for salad. Entrees were delivered before the starter but they took them back without ado. The very nice wasabi tuna appetizer arrived but without any side plates, and we had to request fork and knife. Was difficult catching the eye of our waiter. The ambience in the sheltered outdoor gas fireplace room was cold, the barn wood floors were slippery contributing to poor acoustics. One enters the restaurant through the lobby bar of the Zevely House. The room is totally uninviting - a non-functioning gas fireplace and two well-worn couches. All in all, a less than stellar evening. Will not go back.

Took my friend from out of town last night - fabulous meal, both the sea bass special and of course the scallops. Great service. I can count on Bernardin's - never disappoints!

We enjoyed the lobster with lobster ravioli for entrees; both were outstanding. Our waiter, Josh, gave helpful, insightful recommendations, and improvised a beverage for my wife because they were out of ginger ale. His service really capped an impeccable experience. We'll be back soon and highly recommend Bernardin's.

Service was some of the worst I've had. Cocktails (2 dirty martinis) took more than 15 minutes and weren't that good (olives were terrible!). Starters arrived well before the cocktails, asked for fresh pepper and bread and finished the starters long before the bread came (pepper never did). Food itself was very good, but overall more than a bit disappointing.
