   We had a great experience on the patio with Jackie! We had the fish and lobster. Great wine and cocktails. More quaint and relaxing than the crazy party Miami scene.

   Our experience at Cafe Bernie was terrific. The food was quite delicious…serviche was tangy and tasty…seafood linguine was loaded with seafood…and the pompano fish special was flaky and done to perfection. We were able to sit outdoors and our server (Ricky) took exceptionally good care of us. Highly recommend Cafe Bernie.

   Hi there, I’m truly sorry to hear about your experience—it’s very disappointing to read, especially since this isn’t reflective of the service we strive to deliver at Cafe Bernie. We take feedback seriously and would love the opportunity to understand what went wrong. If you could let us know (by replying here) and include the day and time you visited, it would help us look into this further. We genuinely care about every guest's experience, and if you’re willing to give us another chance, we’d love to welcome you back and show you what Cafe Bernie is really about. If you feel your review was too harsh based on a rare off moment, we’d truly appreciate if you’d consider updating or removing it.

   We’ve been to Bernie’s cafe a number of times but we felt last night was one of the best times thus far. The service was excellent the wine fabulous and the food top notch. Thanks for the memories.

   The food was ok, nothing special. Expected more of a view, but there was no seating near the water available.

   Thank you for your feedback. We’re sorry your experience didn’t meet expectations. We prioritize reservations and always do our best to accommodate specific seating requests. We’re not sure if this was a reservation, but we’d love to get you a table right next to the water next time. We hope you’ll give us another try in the future!

   The Arroz con Mariscos was a little too soupy & seemed like sauce had mayonnaise in it? Jackie was great server!

   Thank you for your feedback! We're sorry to hear the Arroz con Mariscos wasn’t quite to your liking—we appreciate you pointing that out, and we'll definitely share your notes with the kitchen team. We’re glad to hear Jackie made your experience a great one though! She’ll be happy to hear your kind words. We hope to welcome you back soon and give you a five-star visit next time!

   5 stars for all categories. The Red Snapper fish and chips could not have been cooked any better or have been any fresher. All dishes were fabulous and portions were plentiful. Service was top notch. Ambiance and outdoor views were outstanding! If you are in the area, this restaurant is a must go.

    We have dined at Café Bernie several times the past two weeks while we were in Miami Beach. I have nothing but positive things to say about the staff, the food and the ambience. We have had several different things on the menu and they have all been delicious! The setting is beautiful & quaint with lots of shade on the river. And most of all the people that work there really make this place special! Big ❤️❤️❤️thx to Jackie, Grant and Ricky and the others that make this place work. We will miss you when we head home to Chicago!

    Kim, thank you so much for the beautiful words! It means the world to us that Cafe Bernie could be a place of comfort and joy for you and your dad during your time here. Jackie, Grant, Ricky, and the whole team will be touched by your kind note. We’re so glad you enjoyed everything and we’ll definitely miss you and your family! We hope to welcome you again next time you're in town. ❤️
