Preferred restaurant for its ambiance & quality of food. Tables are though overcrowded which makes it difficult to circulate & get knocked by waiters or customers.

Je suis un client depuis le jour 1 & malheureusement je suis, pour la première fois, déçu de mes dernières visites. La cuisine a changé, les plats signatures ne sont plus & la qualité fait défaut. Le service est toujours impéccable & l'atmosphère y est mais il faut se reprendre sur la qualité les amis. Il ne faut jamais prendre les clients pour acquis ! On se reverra quand les problèmes seront réglés...

Beautiful interior, nice service. I like the boeuf tartare but the soggy fries let the dish down.

Nous avons adoré notre soirée à la Brasserie Bernard! L'ambiance de brasserie de quartier nous a tout simplement charme! La touche européenne, la jolie terrasse, l'accueil, le service & la nourriture ont tous contribué à une merveilleuse expérience. Nous recommandons cet endroit sans hésiter & nous avons hâte d'y retourner.

An all-around lovely experience. The ambiance inside & out is incredible- like we spent a brief evening in Europe. The food was delicious & there are so many great choices on the menu. It was hard to choose!
We will definitely be back. The sooner the better.
Only mild complaint was that the main dishes were a bit slow to come to us but it was pretty busy.
