Loved the chicken fried steak and green beans were great. They did leave my extra cornbread out of my order

My friend and I had lunch at Black Bear Diner today. My Patty Melt was cooked perfect. My blueberry cobbler was ok. I expected it to be more like homemade. I should have asked. My friend had a wonderful salad and banana cream pie which she said was very good. The service was good.

My only complaint was that during the cooler than normal spring in California, the air conditioner was blasting arctic air as if it were 100° out. It was only in the mid 60s outside, so if you like to go when the bears are hibernating, this is the place for you. My mom has cancer and was so cold I had to go find a sweatshirt for her. Otherwise everything else was above standard; friendly staff, great food. But I think I'll wait for summer thaw before I come back :-)

Maribel, our waitress, was very attentive and got everything right. Normally, I have to send the order back because something was wrong. Well, everything, right down to the number of butter cubes I wanted, was correct. She checked on us to make sure all was well. I cannot compliment her enough. Even the manager was great! Maribel needs to be cloned! Great service tonight!

Had a great breakfast here. The waffle was nice and crispy on the outside, while soft inside. Our waitress was very friendly and attentive. Pretty big menu that included lunch, so something for everyone. Would definitely be back next time I have a waffle craving.

Went this morning and had a very nice breakfast and seated right away. Restaurant was so nice and clean and everything on table was nice and full and well kept (condiments,salt,pepper) We had a Belgian Waffle with strawberries and cream and a chicken fried steak breakfast with loaded hash browns. Everything was delicious and our waitress was so nice and helpful and patient with our ordering thank you for being so sweet...wish I remembered her name. And we also took a bear claw to go
