“ So we picked this restaurant based on outdoor seating thinking it was a casual type place. Man were we wrong! Very nice building but casual dress was fine. Top shelf margaritas first. Fantastic. The menu was great and my grilled pompano was fantastic!!! Our waiter was friendly and attentive. The plantain chips just delicious and the right snack while we waited for the food. Mango bang shrimp appetizer came out piping hot and crisp and delicious. The sauce delivered as promised by being sweet and spicy. My husband tried the skirt steak and it was perfect as well. He loved his fries too. They were fresh, crisp and hot. Well seasoned as well. The best meal we had that week in a restaurant. ”
“ We ate at Cafe Bernie twice on our vacation and each time was wonderful. The view of the intracoastal was beautiful, the food was on point and delicious and Ricky our server was fantastic. Next time we are in Miami we will definitely come back. ”
