Bernardi's Restaurant

"Just held a Celebration of Life at Bernardis in Washington and it could not have been more perfect!! Stephanie helped me set it up EVERY step of the way. The staff was incredible and the service was better than ANYWHERE I have been. They handled our very large group flawlessly! The food was incredible and everyone in attendance remarked about what a nice event this had been and just how nice the severs were and how Great the food was. They really thought of EVERYTHING including books for the kids, a dessert tray for our use and extra tables for pictures. JUST PERFECT!! Thank you Bernardis for making this memorial a GREAT experience for all of us!!! Thank you Stephanie! I will be glad to hold ANY special event with you!"

"Really enjoyed our dinner the other night. They easily accommodated our party of 10 and provided attentive service. The food was tasty and came hot from the kitchen, which isn't always easy with a large party. My biggest complaint was the high volume for the background music. It seems like they only have a couple of speakers for the back room we were in, and we were right next to the speaker, so it was too loud."

"While this place was recommended to me by two different family members in the area. I did not find it as appealing as they did. First off, we were seated at 1900 and we ordered almost immediately. The waitress came to check on us at 1920, without any food. When I inquired about how soon we would be eating, I was told it would not be much longer. At 2000, she came by us again to see how we were doing. I told her that if I can't get my food kind of quickly we would need to leave. At 2010 our food came out to the table. The baked potatoes we had felt a little hard still. Two of us ordered fried chicken, the third person ordered the sirloin filet. The fried chicken was extremely deep fried and the skin was very brittle, almost over cooked. The chicken meat was cooked well and tasted good. The steak was very small. Overall the food was ok, however, I would not rave over the food here. The waitress was a nice young lady, and I felt she was embarrassed over the wait times that we had to endure. She was still given a decent tip, because we did not feel it was her fault for the extreme delay in getting our food."

"Great family-run business with great food. We enjoy sitting in the booths in the bar area, as it provides a more intimate setting. The rest of the restaurant has more of a family-style feel. All of their dishes are very good. I can definitely recommend their fried chicken."

"Better than expected! I have no idea why I've lived 15 minutes away for about 2 decades and have never tried Bernardi's. I'm really regretting that now! The garlic pretzel appetizer was delicious with both the cheese and marinara side for dipping. But beware, it's a stomach-filler - huge and shareable by 6-8 people! My Tuscan Parmesan was a unique take on Lasagna, breaded, deep fried, and then served with both marinara and Alfredo sauces. This is comfort food at its best. Our waitress was fast, friendly, and knowledgeable. Prices are between reasonable and a little high, we spent just over $100 with a tip for 4 meals (plus appetizer) and non-alcoholic drinks. Highly recommended all around, we will be back often!"
