"At Bern’s in Tampa I discovered an unexpectedly iconic, wine-forward steakhouse: it boasts what I think may be the most insane wine list in the country and a cellar that had never been documented until we were allowed to do so, making it a special, slightly gatekept experience for wine lovers; the food is very good and the operation is humongous, which is surprising given Tampa isn’t typically thought of as a steakhouse city." - Bettina Makalintal
