About Bern's Steak House

Decked out in full Victorian splendour of red and gold, no visit to the Tampa/St. Petersburg area would be complete without a stop at Bern’s. Arguably the most famous restaurant in the Tampa Bay area, Bern’s is a multi-experience dining destination, consisting of a bar, eight dining rooms, a ‘Dessert Room,’ and of course its award-winning wine cellar – billed as one of the largest collections in the world.

You don’t have to love their house-dry-aged steaks to warrant a visit; the wine collection alone is more than enough to make any aficionado swoon. With over 6,500 bottles, depth and breadth is simply unparalleled – their dessert list alone spans hundreds of selections ranging from the classics like Sauternes and Madeira to a selection of rare Crimean bottlings from the ‘30s and ‘40s.

Pro tip: peruse the list ahead of time to ensure you don’t spend the whole evening deep in it – it numbers into the hundreds of pages.
