Whoever does quality control for these restaurants deserves a raise. Eaten at them all over California and have yet to have a meal that didn’t meet/exceeded expectations. Service here was top notch. Be aware of the parking lot theft situation though. Very obvious that travelers flying out of the airport have their cars broken into frequently in the parking lot here. They even have a security guard out patrolling to prevent it but…..Oakland gonna Oakland…. If you know what I unfortunately mean. Update: 7/25/23. Been flying ... read more

What a hidden jewel! Discovered this diner just down the street from where we're staying and can't say enough how nice the staff were and the food was delicious 😋 We both had the lite dinners (smaller portions) and they were perfect. I had the scrumptious roast beef and veggies, with green beans and broccoli. My partner enjoyed the chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and broccoli. Ended up, we couldn't get out the door without a huge bowl of the coconut cream pie...should have started with that! Yummy 😋 Enjoyed so much... read more

This was such a nice spot. Had a week to work in Oakland and ended up eating here twice. If you’re in Oakland, you know the risk parking anywhere, but I felt safer at Blackbear because they had security in the parking lot. The log cabin- diner atmosphere was unique and cute. I had the cheese grits one day and the eggs benedict the other. Both were delicious. The fresh squeezed orange juice was my favorite.

Everything was great except for the prices. I was shocked when I saw the menu. If I were to compare the prices between the one in Napa & this one, you might be surprised at which one was much cheaper. But the service was great. I didn't have to wait long for anything. And my food was tasty too.

I went to Black Bear in Hegenberger in Oakland and I’m so happy to share my amazing experience even there were only two waiters, a girl and a man, it was very busy and they still did everything possible to make us feel comfortable, the food was delicious and it came to our table faster than we imagined; Our waitress recommended us to try new items that had been included in the menu only for the season and I really don't regret it, everything was very nice.
