About the restaurant

Perfectly aged steaks, one of the largest wine collections in the world, and an internationally famous dessert room. These elements have combined since 1956 to provide guests with a unique culinary experience. Prime steaks are cut to order, vegetables are grown locally on the Bern’s farm when available and sourced from the finest purveyors, and the menu includes 20 choices of caviar. Each visit to Bern’s Steak House takes you on a gastronomic adventure that defines Bern’s not as a meal but as an experience.

The food was traditional Cuban with a flare of Spain. Super affordable which makes it somewhat of a rarity in a metropolitan city. So glad we found it. Ate there for lunch and dinner in the same day and headed there again tonight back in Orlando. Can’t wait to come back soon.

About the restaurant

There may be nothing that brings people together as often as food and drink. A daytime affair, The Restaurant serves weekday breakfast and lunch, weekend brunch, and afternoon tea, where guests may be seated in an art-filled dining room with an open kitchen or the sunlit Conservatory, complete with creeping vines and a retractable glass roof. Showcasing continued attention to detail, the menu consists of fresh, seasonal, signature dishes, complemented by an array of premium coffees, teas, and cocktails for a new translation of the classic bistro.

It was truly an amazing experience. Drew was the best waiter, great service. The restaurant was beautiful and the staff were so kind. Multiple people stopped by to make sure to say Happy Birthday and it made me feel special. I have already begun to recommend the Fleming’s to everyone!

Angela was our server for the evening however she was so much more than that! She guided us through the evening on what had to be one of the best food selections and dinning experiences I have personally had in 10 years! She is an amazing person and so knowledgeable about what is on the menu! Her personality is so joyful and happy. You will be in for a special evening with food and ambiance when dinning at Ocean Prime and asking for Angela’s section!!! Thanks!!!

This is a staple in our normal rotation of dining out. The food is always top notch. Also the best salad bar in my opinion. I have never ate anything here that wasn’t good. The service is always great. Just bring a sweater. It is always freezing in there. We love Texas De Brazil.
