This was our first time here and we celebrate my wife’s birthday. The place was cozy and very romantic. Staff are very nice from the receiving and during the dining stay. Junior is the best. He even recommend the best drinks and food to us. We will definitely go back and eat again here. ❤️ Excellent customer service. Highly recommended place you will be mesmerized inside.

Went for birthday dinner. Food was really good. Nice atmosphere. Great wait staff friendly and helpful. Because it was my birthday we got a complimentary dessert. Got the chocolate cake to share. Good thing I did. Delicious and very rich. I got the large plate scallops, cooked perfectly. Husband got the prime burger. He really enjoyed it. Daughter got the half chicken which she really liked. Large portion so had to bring some home. The only part of dinner that was slightly off par was the baked brie appetizer. The taste was great but was expecting the cheese to be larger then what we got kinda small. Just a minor complaint. Aside from that we had a great experience. Definitely recommend Ernies for a night out.

I went to Ernie’s with a couple of friends and family. Very lovely and elegant place. However I was very disappointed with our server Junior. He seemed bothered with our table from the moment we got there and ignored us on several occasions when we tried to ask for drinks. My wife was very displeased, as it was her first time coming. It’s unfortunate because the food was great though. Not so much the service.

Best restaurant experience we have had in a while, from the friendly and accommodating staff to the delicious drinks and food. We started with the birthday cake martinis, then the French onion soup as an appetizer. My husband got the rib eye steak with creamed spinach and potatoes. I ordered the king salmon with crab fried rice and carrots. They are also kid friendly which is a huge plus. We will be back.

I was looking for a local spot to take my wife for our anniversary and was looking for something fancy and had a romantic setting. Ernies exceeded EVERY expectations! From the service, our waiter, the food, and the vibe. Just go check it out for yourself! I would give them six stars if I could. Make reservations too. Makes it extra special for any occasion.

This is a small little restaurant. Super cute though. FYI the prices are high here. Check out their menu on their website or on the reviews section. The pic I shared is what I ordered which was $38 without taxes. Very delicious though nothing wrong in treating your self to a fancy dinner once in a while. Lol I saw in another review that they got a free dessert for their birthday. I went their with my friend, we were celebrating our birthdays and we didn’t get a free dessert so I don’t know how that works because the hostess did ask us if we were celebrating anything and I said our birthday. No biggy though. Oh and the bread is free refills, which is also very delicious with the butter and whatever the little house made thingy that was next to the butter. Forgot what it was called.

This place is a hidden gem. I had the New York steak (medium rare) w/ a tray of sauces; steak, chimmichuri, horseradish. Sides are ordered separately, I got brussel sprouts, carrots, mashed potatoes. I think the drink I had was a…. Cuba Libre. Great, great, great, food.
