The bar and grill has an excellent atmosphere and the food is great. Would please the western taste bud as well as those who like a bit of spice.

Bernie's has a nice atmosphere for meeting up with clients or business associates after work hours...and as others have already noted, a good "springboard" for starting the night. If you want to end your night at Bernie's they have laid claim to "Saigon's biggest Martini" a cosmopolitan that is equivalent to about 6 regular martinis for the cool price of... More

Bernie's will always be the first place that comes to mind when I want to meet friends or colleagues or ever when im on my own to escape the heat and bustle of Saigon's streets for a decent 'proper' coffee, a cold beer or an excellent burger which is the best burger I have had in this city. It is... More

Bernie's Bar bucks the trend! Wow! I loved this place. I was in need of a safe haven on arrival - Saigon is crazy! I have visited this great little bar and restaurant twice now - I can safely say the following: good food, cold beer and a great atmosphere. Maybe I'm just a weary traveller but this works for...

Bernie's is a great place. The food is very good and the quality is outstanding. The location is very convenient and the staff is friendly. The only downside to eating here is that it feels like eating a great meal in the glass smoking room at the airport. Every time I eat here I have to change clothes and wash... More

This restaurant is the scene of the single worst dining experience I've had in Vietnam and my first review reflected the rudeness, venality and mean-spiritedness of the female Vietnamese manger/owner. Another reviewer suggested that I caught them on a bad day. On my most recent trip to HCMC I tested his theory. This time I sat at a table at... More

Bernies makes some good food. The salmon pizza is nice. Steaks are good. Hamburgers are nice. Pretty much every item on the menu is good. Mushroom pie for example. Staff is friendly and their English is pretty good. A bit pricey but worth the splurge every now and then.
