Update** I've since come back to BB a few time in the last few years and service has gotten better, still a bit of a wait though. The food has also been good with nice portions. The ambiance is load and chaotic because of how busy they are

So busy!! Bugs menu. They have their own parking. Went for special prime rib only on Saturday and Fridays Meatloaf with fried onion strings were comforting. Meals after 4 pm comes with baked potato option. The baked good are fire. The best pies. Even better than Marie calendars. Had the chocolate pie So fresh with Oreo cookie crust.

Huge shoutout to Kyle for keeping it together while the restaurant basically turned into a live episode of Kitchen Nightmares. Coworkers (specific lady) were arguing with the manager right in front of customers like it was open-mic drama night, and Kyle still delivered top-tier service with a smile. Give this man a raise (and maybe a therapist). Food was solid. Entertainment? Unexpectedly excellent. 

Business response:

Aw shucks, we're blushing! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We can't wait to see you again soon to #FeedYourInnerBear!

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. 

Business response:

It's important to us to make sure every customer feels satisfied when they pay us a visit, and we'd like to address this directly.

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
