The food is amazing, and the service was awesome. Autumn took great care of us, our meals were out very quickly, and piping hot. My go-to was perfect, chicken fried steak with extra gravy. The onion rings were on point, I never thought about cranberry sauce with chicken fried steak before, but it was excellent. My wife had the turkey dinner that was very juicy, and we had to order the bear paw desert to go because we were so full. My wife also signed off on excellent homemade ranch dressing. Great food and friendly peop... read more

Pay their kitchen employees a fair wage commensurate with menu pricing! The food quality is adequate but I can't support this business knowing what they pay the people who put out their food! 

Business response:

Thank you for your feedback. We have conversations about pay with our employees on a one-on-one basis. If you are advocating for a current employee, please encourage them to speak to their manager. Thank you.

Super disappointed with this visit. I convinced my family to come because last time, our food was the best I'd tasted in San Antonio in a while. This time, the portions were ridiculously small, and the onion rings were so oily they weren't even edible. Really unfortunate drop in quality -- I expected much better based on our last experience.

My stepfather, wife, daughter, and I decided to stop by for a nice morning breakfast. We expected a relaxing Sunday brunch, and while we understand longer waits on weekends, the overall experience didn't live up to expectations. Our waitress seemed overwhelmed -- she kept mixing up our orders and forgetting what went where. When the food finally arrived, it was underwhelming. The biscuits were undercooked and could've used a few more minutes in the oven. We were hoping for something fresh and hearty, but everything just fel... read more

First impression: Smelled like a wet dog when we walked in. Carpet probably needs to be cleaned and sanitized. We stayed and ignored the red flags (burned hot coffee, laughably strong iced coffee) until our food came out and the request for crispy, fully cooked fries and hash browns was completely ignored somewhere along the way. I finished my sandwich, but my guest didn't touch his plate or coffee because he didn't think it was right to be charged for something he didn't like. They still charged for his coffee but took off... read more

At 1:53pm on a Monday afternoon we were told that there was a 45 minute wait!! The parking lot was half empty and I counted at least 10 available seats for a party of two!! That is absolutely ridiculous and unacceptable.... This will be my last visit to any Black Bear Diner!!

Takes forever to be seated and just as long to be waited on. The rolls were burnt and hard.
