I love a good restaurant that serves with quality service! Plus the omelettes are cooked with butter and not oil!! Delicious!! Feels like home
I was here just yesterday for breakfast. My family and I were making our way down south to Los Angeles from having spent a little time in Ventura. The restaurant is fairly large and has plenty of booth seating. There are lots of families here. The menu is still huge and overwhelming, in my opinion. I always love breakfast here. The portions are huge and the flavors are amazing. Nothing overpowers the next and flavors are very complementary. I ordered the cinnamon roll French toast along with some eggs and bacon. I ended up s... read more
GETTING HERE: Located at the old Carrows off Seaward and the 101. Next door to the Chevron in the Vons strip mall. REVIEW: Not too bad actually. It is a diner, but it has a really great feel to it, IMO, Service can be hit and miss but alas, that's 2025. This most recent visit service was OK and the food was served hot-ish. I ordered a turkey club, and asked for the bacon to be crispy. The bacon was cold and not cooked, and the sandwich had ham on it and no turkey. My guest ordered the Reuben and there was no thousand... read more

We eat here at least once a week and we always leave happy and full. The menu is full of great options for everybody. My go to is the bacon cheeseburger salad or the chicken sausage scramble, but there are so many great dishes here and the burgers are amazing! *They recently lowered the prices on a lot of menu items as well but did not cut the quality or quantity. In times where every cost in our lives is going up, it's nice to see a business take this initiative. We have to give a special shout out to Cheryl & Omi who alwa... read more
Being our first time there. We had a Wonderful service experience by Shirley, she was attentive, welcoming and kind. Hopefully it continues on our next return visit and every server. Thank you
Great meal today at Black Bear Diner highlighted by exceptional service from Gloria! After a busy Monday, I was craving some comfort food and treated myself to a New York Steak. For my sides, I chose to have a baked potato and green beans with bacon, both were warm and delicious. Opt for the blue cheese and mushrooms, as it is a generous portion that compliments the steak nicely. Cornbread was good as always. Gloria was quick to get my order, check in during my meal, and overall very friendly. Thank you Black Bear Ventura an... read more
Best Diner Ever!! Love this place! Always take friends and family here when they visit me in town. Scott was our server and he made our experience so inviting! :))) Usually always have to get the cinnamon French toast, but now they added breadpudding French toast that was outstanding!
We had a wonderful experience at Black Bear Diner, thanks in large part to our amazing waiter, Scott. From the moment we were seated, Scott made us feel welcomed and well taken care of. He was attentive, friendly, and had such a positive energy that really made our meal extra enjoyable. He checked in often without being intrusive and made great recommendations from the menu. Everything came out perfectly, and his service was top-notch from start to finish. Thank you, Scott, for making our visit so memorable,we'll definitely ... read more
