Best patio in Portland!
Have been to Bernie's many times and have never been disappointed. The atmosphere is wonderful, especially the outdoor garden dining. The food is totally decadent and presented beautifully. Kelly, the owner, is gracious and her restaurant has enhanced the neighborhood.

Unlike most places in Portland, the hushpuppies here are LEGIT.

Just had the meatloaf and mashed potatoes with gravy here and I was so impressed that I thought I would write a tip. Turns out I was just as impressed 6 years ago when I last visited!

Make a reservation if you go on the weekend it seems unless you want to sit at the bar or get there shortly after they open.

Friendly service. Well-done refreshing cocktails. Enjoyed the fried chicken. Was envious of my friend's pulled pork sandwich. Thankfully everything was big enough for sharing!

Best Macaroni and Cheese around. Fried Green Tomatoes were delish too. There back patio is lovely and peaceful. Must go!

Kellie is the best and I'd punch a clown for the meatloaf and mac and cheese.

Deep fried dill pickles and sweet potato Cajun fries with creamy tomato dip is ah-mazing.

Everything is great! Some of my favorites are the Catfish, Shrimp n Grits, Collard Greens, and Bread Pudding!
by Jim W.
I am from the South...Holy crap, that was the best shrimp and grits I have ever eaten.
by Scott M.
The shrimp and grits are the best. Easily holds up to dishes I had in Atlanta.

Went to Bennie's tonight for dinner. The service was great and came with a smile, but even better, the Meatloaf was the best I EVER had. The side were good. Try the yams as a side order.
