    The rooms are very dark. We had to walk through very long and winding isles to finally get to our table. It was so far out of the way and the table was very awkwardly shaped. We had to enter on opposite sides of the "room" and the table was an oblong shape that made us sit next to each other but with the table jutting in between us. The dessert was decently priced and good. We had the trio and an Elvis sundae. They were both good. Nothing to rave about but an experience for sure.

    The Dessert Room actually is a great value. When you compare a dessert or drink price to any other restaurant, you get so much more from Berns. There are some real gems. Don't get stuck ordering the same old thing, try something new of this extensive menu.

    I went to the dessert room alone since I am on a work trip, I didn’t get to eat down stairs so I made a reservation on here to get my spot upstairs. The valet parking was very nice to have. I was seated quickly and my waiter was very friendly and attentive. The menu is so big with so many option. I got a vanilla iced coffee, chocolate lush cake (omg soooo good), and the peanut butter truffle (this was good also) the cake was amazing.

    We were early for our dessert reservation and had drinks in the bar area. Then we toured the kitchen and wine cellar. Dessert was awesome, the dessert, the drinks, the coffee. It was a fantastic experience.

    We went as a party of 8 for an anniversary celebration. Oli was an amazing waiter he made recommendations and was very patient with our group. The desserts were delicious but personally I wasn’t floored. I would say the experience as a whole is nice and would definitely enjoy for a special occasion.

    We have always considered Berns and the Waugh room to be the finest dining experience in the country. We have been blessed to travel and dine all over. Now that they offer reservations for the Waugh room it makes for a nice break and a special social environment unlike any other. Thank you for this.

    The desserts at Bern’s used to be stellar. Unusual and delicious. Now the desserts are just okay. They no longer serve the chocolate cake or 7-layer chocolate cake. Lots of ice cream choices but taste is nothing better than you’d get at a lesser priced ice cream store. Expected to pay a lot for superior quality desserts but paid a lot for average quality. Drinks were good. Berns cappuccino was great and other after dinner drinks were also but can’t give these to my kids .
