Bernbaum's - Fargo

We Ate Well Tonight... Tonight we attended BernBaum's for a rustic Italian dinner. I learned a new term-Involtini and I will never forget it. For those of you that have never had the chance to taste an involtini, it is the most perfect roll-up of flavor, eggplant filled with mint, raisin feta covered in a garlic tomato sauce. Heavenly. I felt the urge to talk with my hands like a true Italian after the first bite, and I’m half Italian as it is! Then came the pasta pillows that were so rich, stuffed with ricotta or lamb/pork ragu depending on your choice. Ike I passed our portions back and forth unable to determine which was better because both were just so damn good! Finally, there was the Meyer lemon semifreddo. Tart and sweet and the quintessential ending to a satiating savory meal. BernBaum’s is so unassuming, so unpretentious. From the personal call from Amy to remind us of our reservation, the kind conversation at our table with Camille, Paul’s graciousness after congratulating him for the magic he makes in the kitchen to the welcome and thanks from Andrea as we entered the door. One can’t help but feel like we’re at their dinner table in their home having Sunday dinner because we’re friends. Oh to be friends with these people! The absolute best! Thank you for such a wonderful evening!

Everything was absolutely delicious, the bagel, salad, knish (best I've ever had), and a spectacular Turkish coffee/Cardamom brownie. Hands down one of the best lunches I've had in months. The staff was also very friendly and nice.

I had an amazing lunch at this restaurant. It was my first time here and I was impressed by the fresh and flavorful dishes. I will definitely be returning. Everything we tried, including the lamb meatloaf sandwich, salad, mushroom and rutabaga soup, and the lox and gravlax bagel plate, was delicious and I was not disappointed. The food was so good!

This restaurant is a hidden gem located in downtown Mid Mod. I recently tried the heirloom tomato salad and was blown away by how extraordinary it was. It was seriously the best salad I've ever had. Following that, I had the Matzo soup which tasted just like a homemade meal your grandmother would make every Sunday. Every ingredient was perfectly cut and seasoned, and the Matzo balls were the best I've ever had. I also couldn't resist buying some bagel chips, which were amazing. I definitely plan on becoming a regular at this restaurant. Thank you for bringing back quality and craftsmanship to lunchtime. Even Gordon Ramsay would be impressed!

We so enjoyed the place and the people who own it and work there: genuinely warm, friendly and caring, such a refreshing experience! The food was amazing! Definitely will recommend the place to all my friends!
