The glowing comments about this venerable steakhouse include "If I get a choice, my last meal will be at Bern's," "It's not just the food, it's also about the atmosphere, attitude and service," "This is probably my second favorite restaurant in the U.S." and "For a place that is very high on the tourist food chain, the materials here are first-rate and the kitchen attentive." And that doesn't cover the wine list, described as "incredible," "divine," "extensive," "crazy," "huge" and "ginormous." Part of the experience is a separate dessert room, where you can top off your steak with a slice of German chocolate cake or a banana split while sipping a glass of aged Sauternes.
