They brought over tea in a teapot and cups. We ordered a large hot and sour soup to share between 4 of us and it was plenty. Also ordered the duck appetizer which was really good tender and flavorful. Kung pao chicken is the hubs' favorite and was pretty good. Ma po tofu was good quite spicy very soft tofu. Also got the vegetable dish the mixed vegetable dish which had the Chinese squash, carrots and mushrooms. Everything was delicious and I couldn't stop eating! They brought oranges with the bill which is nice - I like healthy desserts ha ha! The ambience decor is nice with beautiful painted designs on the walls. They also have 2 private rooms with seating for private parties. Service was a bit slow in the beginning but once they got the order the dishes came out fairly quickly. We had lots of leftovers and they packed it all nicely and even gave us 2 extra bags since we wanted to split the leftovers between us. We lucked out with parking and found free street parking very close to the restaurant. Overall good experience!

I wish they had more dishes that didn't have so much pork in it. The soup was of flavor. The price was $14. I think it's a little overpriced . I think the appropriate price should be $10 maybe $11.

While I enjoyed the home cooked feel, the prices are way too high for what you get. For example, a…read moresmall tin of pork spare ribs is $20, and a salty soy milk is more than $8. For those prices, it should be life changing, but the food was just okay and even borderline bad. I do enjoy the sweet soy milk and the radish cakes. The you tiao (fried Chinese cruller) is hit or miss - one time it was good, the other time it tasted like old oil and was dripping grease. One thing I don't like is that they automatically charge you $2 for tea even though it's already on the table and we didn't order it. It is very very busy on Saturdays but the service could be better - our dishes were forgotten sometimes and they even took my husbands plate away while he was still using it because I guess the kitchen ran out of plates...

There are some standout dishes that I return to on a regular basis. The braised beef with Napa cabbage, the Chengdu style Kung Pao Chicken, and the dry cooked spicy chicken, are three examples of delicious, flavorful, and nicely spiced entrées. During our last visit, one of the owners, who goes by Benjamin, chatted with us and gave us two small dishes to try on the house. One was a small bowl of Sichuan pickled vegetables for us to nibble on, and the other was a Sichuan spicy beef jerky, and both were absolutely delicious. Ben was a delight to chat with as well. The restaurant itself is large, spacious, and quiet. It's a pleasant place to spend some time, have a good conversation, and enjoy some delicious food!

I had not been to Bernard's in probably 30+ years and went on a whim with my Mother on Saturday…read morenight. We were thrilled to get a table without a reservation. The menu is extensive with something for everyone. We stayed with the vegetable wontons and then ordered the lettuce cups and the most amazing chicken I've ever had that was off the menu. The chicken is hung so the fat drips and cooked in a technique that allows more fat to drop which leaves the skin paper thin, not greasy and delicious. They have a nice selection of wines by the glass and bottle, and several desserts to choose from, along with the complimentary fortune cookie. The service was excellent. Ting our waiter was friendly, knowledgeable, patient and delivered top notch service! He was fantastic! I'd definitely go back! It's a great place to go with friends as you can try and share lots of dishes. There was a huge party at a table with a lazy Susan in the middle, plus ample bar seating. I'm not a big Chinese food fan and so I'm picky about where I go since I don't eat it very often. Bernard's can always be counted on for excellent food!

Mother's day my husband took me to Bernard because we used to go years ago and I couldn't wait to get a delicious meal I had there before. (one I remembered because it was amazingly delicious!) We got early reservations but could only sit at a tall table on the bar side, which was fine. The bartender came out to take our order and hopped in the extra chair at our table and took our order, he was friendly and funny and we welcomed his happy joking manner. We ordered and waited, and waited, and waited, fine, we weren't in a big rush anyway. After about 45 minutes The waiter noticed and went to the kitchen to check, and after a bit food started coming, my wonton soup was okay, then came the crab rangoon, thick wontons( no real taste) dry and sadly, filling not really very tasty either. My husband's food came and it was pretty good but then I waited, and waited, again and we realized they had forgotten my main dish! After the mediocre taste of everything else I decided to not wait for, or eat anything else, nor did we want to take any extra home. By now it was at least an hour and a half in. We got the check and explained to the Bartender that it was never brought he was very apologetic and took it off the bill. It was disappointing because we recalled it being SO good. We won't chance it again as it actually was the second time we were not at all impressed, but we gave it another shot. Bye bye Bernards, it's a good memory but you really have slacked off.

For $17.95, getting 3 rolls of sushi isn't a bad deal, so I'm giving this a 4/5. The combo comes with a spicy tuna roll, a california roll, and a salmon avocado roll. Spicy Tuna Roll: This was pretty disappointing. I really love spicy tuna rolls that have the minced tuna, spicy mayo, and tempura flakes all mixed together, but this was not that. This roll was a tuna cucumber roll with spicy mayo drizzled on top. With that, the spicy mayo was really overpowering and I couldn't taste the tuna at all. I'd prefer the normal tempura and mayo taste or just a tuna and cucumber, but doing it this way wasn't my favorite. California Roll: This was not bad - the imitation crab was big and plump and there was fish roe inside of the roll instead of on the outside which made it have a better texture in my opinion. The avocado was fresh and these bites were pretty enjoyable. Salmon Avocado Roll - This was the best roll of the 3 - the salmon tasted good and the avocado was fresh again. In all 3 rolls, the rice was a little dense, but at least it was a very filling 3 rolls for a good price point. 4/5!
