Hosted at Bern’s Steak House for the second time in over six decades, the seated four-course brunch will be prepared by Executive Chef, Chad Johnson and his team of culinary experts.


In partnership with local art gallery, CASS Contemporary, Bern’s Family Restaurant Group has commissioned a beautiful large scale painting to be unveiled during the festivities.

After the unveiling, join us in our famous Cameo dining room to relish in a steakhouse brunch paired with selections from our sponsors at Kobrand Fine Wine & Spirits and Champagne Taittinger. The toasting is sure to be indulgent!

This year’s artist will be Fintan Magee. The artwork unveiled on this day will reside in our newly renovated lounge at Bern’s Steak House, which will be completed in the summer of 2023.

Last year’s artwork was created by Paola Delfin and hangs on the wall in our lounge at Haven.

Additionally, our Bern’s Winefest art collection consists of pieces by American artists; Tristan Eaton, Dalek, FAITH XLVII, PichiAvo, and Joram Roukes – all of which can be enjoyed at our three South Tampa sister properties.
