I don't usually write reviews but I believe Mike deserve recognition for his amazing service. All my black bear diners have had good service but Mike made our experience 100% better. We're very appreciative of his service as well as his team!

Met up with my mom and sister for a quick breakfast. It was my first time here, place was bigger than the signal hill location and it has tall ceilings, which I like. Right away, the host sat us down, there was no wait. Got our menus and drink orders were place. We ordered a few things: red, white and blue pancakes, the scramBOWL, the grizzly and a one egg combo. We each enjoyed our meal and everyone agreed that our meal was yummy. My pancakes were soft and flavorful, I believe I read that the pancakes are made with sweet cream, not 100% but they were tasty. I appreciate the cleanliness and welcoming environment. Plenty of people walking in while we ate, so its a busy place.

It was my first time coming to a Black Bear Diner, and it exceeded my expectations. This location has an easily accessible parking lot. Interior was very nice and welcoming. As we went in, the waitress handed us a newspaper format menu. It has a list of all the locations and when they opened; it was very impressive! The menu is extensive, and it took a while to look through and decide. I ordered the Denver Omelette, which included French Toasts. The portion was HUGE! The omelette was delicious and one of the best I had. I would definitely go to a Black Bear Diner again, but would probably split the plate with another person. I was full from lunch until the next day. The portion is that huge.

I was working from home and decided to be a lazy and order breakfast and lunch from Black Bear Diner. I placed my order online early on a Tuesday morning, a time when the place wasn't crowded so I wait it would be ready in 15 to 20 mins, and found the entire experience smooth and efficient. For breakfast, I ordered Joe's Hobo Omelette omelette (link sausage & thick-cut smoked bacon, jack cheese, cheddar cheese, spinach & onion) which was perfectly cooked. The portion size was generous which filled me up for most of the day. Lunch consisted of a cheese burger wrapped in lettuce with sweet potato fries. The burger was flavorful and generous portion size for the sweet potato fries. The order was ready for pickup in less than 20 minutes, as promised. Finding parking was hassle-free, and the food was prepared exactly as ordered. The staff was friendly and had my order ready to go when I arrived, ensuring a quick and seamless pickup. Black Bear Diner delivered on quality and convenience. Whether for take-out or dining in, I will definitely return.
