Bernie's Restaurant & Bar - University City

Came here for dinner over President day weekend! Space is modern and very warm. Service was very warm and friendly. Crispy chicken salad bowl and shaken beef bowls were HUGE! Both bowls were fresh and tasty. Please order a side of sweet potatoes waffle fries!!! Best sweet potatoes fries I've had. Nice selection of beers. Beautiful outdoor space. Will definitely come back to visit.

Loved the scene here. Went to lunch and requested outside to enjoy the unseasonal 60 degree November weather.
Stone with glass enclosed fire pit was warm and welcoming on the patio
Had the smokehouse porter with a turkey burger, avocado and provolone.
Responsive and friendly wait staff.
Lunch at noon required no reservation or wait time.

Sometimes you get really lucky and find a place by mistake. I got so damn lucky! I had fried goat cheese on a bed of spring greens, onion, in an aioli that was Heaven. I don't order fried food out, I'm very allergic to shellfish...this is one of those rare places where I won't get sick because they don't fry everything in the same oil. Also had the jerk pork sandwhich...I have friends from Jamaica that really need to come here, they will go bananas. So I know not everyone heads to University City for an afternoon or night out......but if you find yourself in the area you really need to stop in. Wondering if they serve dessert......hhhhmmmmm

Delicious food, friendly staff, good vibes.
