One thing clear about my recent visit, the food was delicious and filling. I ordered the breakfast chicken fried steak and eggs and it was good. My problem came from the service. Unfortunately we were not given silverware when we arrived and my wife was missing two of her sides when the food came, even calling staff members seemed like a chore. They were by no means busy so I'm counting on us just showing up on an off day.

First time ever at a Black Bear Diner. Service, amazing. I forgot the Hispanics guy's name but I sat at the bar counter & he was very attentive & had a great work personality. Tried all 3 "Melts" in their menu, The Ceasar Melt & the Pot Roast melt were dripping in flavor, the Au Jus dip, boosting with flavor as well. I love a place that can excuse & utilize the flavors they gave because who wants a $100 steak with one side that has no flavor at all? If I want a flavorful meal, that makes me feel happy & comfortable, I will g... read more

Ever since this place opened it has been our go to for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Usually there's little to no wait time unless it's peak lunch hour on a weekend. The food is great and the ambiance is very country and homey. The service you receive is outstanding. Special shout out to our friend MIKE!! He makes you feel so comfortable and makes sure you get exactly what you want the way you like it. He went above and beyond for our toddler's meal, which if you are a parent you definitely know how big that is to be able to ... read more

Been here many times and typically have a good experience but today was the best. Went to dinner with the family and had the pleasure to have Mike as our waiter. Mike has the friendliest disposition and is so attentive. He made sure we were aware of all our meal options, that the food was to our satisfaction and that our overall experience was enjoyed by everyone in the table. The good was also super yummy. Highly recommend the meat lovers omelet and the bread pudding french toast.

Keep feeding your inner bear! We look forward to seeing you soon Ivonne!

I wasn't 100% satisfied the first time coming here (nothing with the food- just a misunderstanding), however Black Bear reached out immediately to make it right. A lot of companies don't go the extra mile like that so I appreciate it. Made me feel better about everything and gave me another perspective. (Thanks Enrique!) The food was good. Kiddo enjoyed his chicken, and I loved the biscuit and gravy breakfest.. (with eggs and sausage.) Sunny side up eggs were cooked perfectly. Portion was big, enough to take home and eat t... read more

Food was mostly okay. The server Rosa C could have been a little bit better. She was rushing, not sure why? It was freezing cold inside. We asked if they would possibly adjust the temperature, of course they did not. She said next time bring a sweater. Wow 

Business response:

Nellie, thank you for taking the time to leave us such a wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your birthday breakfast with us and that Luz provided you with excellent service. We're glad to hear that your food was delicious, and we apologize that the wait was a bit longer than usual but appreciate your patience. However, we're disappointed to hear that the cashier, Ana, was not friendly. We will be sure to address this with our team. Thank you for your feedback, and we hope to see you again soon!
