Bern's Steak House - Tampa

This review is for the desert room since we were not able to get a reservation for the regular restaurant on a weekday night no matter how frequently we called. Bern’s is one of those places that had a TON of hype throughout central Florida. It’s old fashioned in the best way possible with classic food, service and charm. The desert room is located on the second floor in the back of the restaurant and you used to go there after dinner. Luckily you can do desert separately if you are willing to go right as they open. The little booths you sit in are insanely cool and be prepared to have a very difficult time choosing what sweet treat you want to eat. Service was amazing and prices are high enough to blow your socks off. Unfortunately the desert was just OK? We sampled 3 different things and the cheese plate and while all of them were good, none were particularly memorable. Overall the experience was worth it hopefully we can try the full restaurant experience some day.

Very high end steakhouse with the great vibe and really nice atmosphere! The food was awesome! Got the porterhouse steak which was cooked perfectly. It comes with the french onion soup (10 out of 10) and the house salad. Macadamia Nut Sundae is definitely worth a try! Also our waiter Davor was the best, very cool and funny Nothing but good emotions, absolutely recommend this place!

Dessert Room Review This is our go to spot for the best desserts. I’m all our travels we still haven’t found anywhere that rivals the dessert room at Burn’s. A great atmosphere that’s moody but also well lit when it needs to be. The booths are small secluded areas with their own music that you can select. Great for conversation especially on special occasions. The staff is always super friendly and attentive. You would expect nothing less at a high end establishment. Now for the best parts…. The desserts. They have a wide range of dessert wines and alcoholic and non alcoholic coffee choices. Great if you like a little bitter with your sweets. The desserts themselves are nothing short of phenomenal. Always sweet but never so rich you can only have a few bites. A few options for alcoholic desserts as well but always done tastefully without going overboard. The steakhouse can be a little pricey so if you are looking to only spend around $25 a person consider heading upstairs and just getting dessert. You won’t be disappointed and it makes for a romantic evening with your significant other. Cheers!

Awesome! Yes, meals will cost over $100/person on average, but you WILL be full between soup, salad and sides with your TENDER steak. Our 2 wine glasses only cost $16, and we skipped desert this time as we had the birthday cake waiting at home. FANTASTIC MEAL! Extra kudos for our waiter straining out the onions for our 'French ' soup which was wonderful! We 'll be back again!

I've wanted to try this restaurant for quite some time now. I've heard from several friends that it was great, so I was really excited to go for a special occasion. The entrance doesn't do it justice for the decor and decadent feel of the restaurant. After being seated, we were greeted by our great server. He helped us decide which cut of beef would be to our liking, and we started our course meal with a French onion soup and salad. Both were delicious. Our entree came, and it was cooked to perfection. You can definitely taste the superior quality of their steaks. After we were directed to the dessert room, which was more than we'd expected, They have privacy booths to give an intimate and old-fashioned feel. They offer an extensive menu of liquors, coffees, and desserts. I had the Baked Alaska; it was amazing, and they flambeau it right at your booth. The Creme Brulee was exquisite. This is a high-quality restaurant, and prices reflect that. But for us, it was worth the price. From now on, this will be our special occasion restaurant, and I can't wait until we come back again.
