Bernard's offers a mixed experience with excellent food, lovely ambiance, and attentive service, but with some issues to improve. The menu features dishes like soft shell crabs and vegetarian ravioli, while the atmosphere includes a piano player. Some patrons were disappointed with the service and prices, but others praised the service and the atmosphere. Despite the mixed reviews, the overall sentiment is that Bernard's is a good spot to enjoy a fine dining experience, whether celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying a romantic evening out.
