    It was quite busy when we went around 11AM on a Thursday. I had the French toast with eggs and sausage. I also ordered a side of toast to soak up the eggs. The French toast was very thin and had absolutely no flavor. It was probably the worst French toast I've ever had. Wifey wanted to try their biscuits and gravy but she could not eat it as she said the gravy tasted yucky and the biscuits fell apart. The service was so so and was disappointing like the food. Not sure why this place was so busy as there are so many other options around here. Unfortunately I probably will not return.

    Indoor seating and wall decorations

    Since getting here in the Phoenix area, I have been to a Black Bear Diner three times. A friend of mine recommended it and I agree with him that Black Bear Diner is a great place to eat. You get a lot of scrumptious food for your money. I've had the biscuits and gravy as well as a veggie omelet. Everything was very good. The service is also wonderful. Our servers and cashiers were always a delight to talk with. They took our order without error and brought our food out quickly. Our coffee cups were continuously topped off. I liked the ambiance. The wall decorations, the outside decorations and even the souvenir store were great. On top of that the bathroom was clean and smelled so good. Thank you to the Black Bear Diner staff for a satisfying experience here in the greater Phoenix area.

    Turkey Club with avocado and crispy fries

    Today was my second time visiting this location. I got there around noon, restaurant was clean and was seated right away. My server Ana was amazing. She greeted me with a big smile and brought my drink right away. I ordered the Turkey Club, lightly toasted on white and crispy fries. She asked if I wanted to add avocado and I said yes, best decision ever!! My order came exactly as I ordered it. Ana kept checking up on me and brought my refill in no time. She was very attentive. I really enjoyed my lunch and will definitely be back. On my way out I noticed they have a gift shop with a huge selection of cute stuff. I couldn't help myself so I bought a bear for my granddaughter. I'm definitely coming back!!!

    Steak and egg special
    Rick H.

    I've always enjoyed Black Bear diner, and the steak and egg special is worth stopping in for. The steak isn't particularly great, but it's a satisfying meal, in a nice atmosphere, with very good service. They don't complain about substitutions, which is nice. $4 for a coffee or iced tea is sort of outrageous, but that's today's prices.

    WAS chicken fried steak, 2 eggs, toast and can't eat the hash browns. Very good food!! Very good customer service!!

    Got a Southwest eggs Benedict. It was delicious. The service was fast and reliable. The ambience is very friendly. It feels like a good home meal.

    Biscuits and gravy
    Asa P.

    Why has it taken me so long to get back here??? I made a quick stop for breakfast in the middle of my work day @blackbeardiner It smelled like home cooked breakfast in the parking lot, greeted and seated immediately, waitress was very friendly and went over some top favorites. I tried a few dishes but this stood out the most. Oversized soft fluffy biscuits, creamy savory gravy with the right amount of salt and seasoning, topped over that biscuit. Perfection! As I am eating I realize I didn't see the chicken and waffle plate on the menu and that was one that always hit for me. I'll definitely be stopping back for another brunch experience. Heck, I may just have to try dinner too. I love me some delicious comfort food! Just a cozy spot to have brunch. I love the little country stop as you walk in.

    So I went to the blackbear diner this morning for breakfast ordered the Dave's omelette, which is bacon sausage ham in the in the omelette supposedly instead I got a scrambled egg taco all the ingredients spread across the top with the cheese on top of it not an omelette not even an egg taco just scrambled eggs with ingredients on top hashbrowns with cheese and up charge not gold. Coffee was good. Service was OK. The manager came over and knocked off five dollars for the piss poor omelette not sure if I'll be back. It's a mom and Pop type restaurant, as you can see the before pitcher look like it might be an omelette until I opened up the egg and found out it wasn't

What really makes this place standout is the service! The 2 young ladies that helped me today, I mean help, because I'm a clutz & spilled my entire water over the table just as the breakfast was served. The young woman who delivered the food jumped into action, she picked up both my phones to save them before I could even acknowledge the incident. She is amazing! She returned with clean up supplies & a smile. I felt so badly. Both women had the table cleaned, delivered extra condiments, didn't bat an eye or make me feel like the clutz that I am. The omelet was good, the potatoes were excellent. I had the steak omelet with farm potatoes & sourdough. They use PACE picante as their "salsa " with no Cholula. That was disappointing but it is a "Midwestern" theme restaurant, Plenty of seating, EXCELLENT service & good food. I'll be back when I'm in the area, might even make the drive from my house..

The food is so fresh and flavorful that I'm starting to wonder if they have a secret farm hidden behind the building. Every plate comes out looking like it belongs in a magazine, but somehow tastes even better than it looks. The portions are generous, the ingredients are top-notch, and you can tell everything is made with care instead of just thrown together. The service deserves its own standing ovation. The staff is genuinely friendly, attentive, and somehow seems to know exactly what you need before you realize you need it. They make you feel like a regular, even if it's your first visit. I've had breakfasts that were good and lunches that were great--but Wildberries somehow manages to nail both every single time. It's the kind of place where you tell yourself you'll try something different next visit, then spend ten minutes staring at the menu because everything sounds amazing. Fair warning: after eating here, your standards for breakfast and lunch will be permanently ruined. Other cafés will seem like they're just trying to participate while Wildberries is out here winning championships. Outstanding food, outstanding people, and an all-around incredible experience. This place isn't just worth five stars--it deserves the whole galaxy. Also, fuck Derek Y. And his negative review from one year ago. He is a slim bag and has zero taste.

We found this place (on Yelp of course) and couldn't be more pleased with this choice. Caitlin, our server, was delightful, on point with the food and drink and just an amazing server. The place was packed, but the wait was pretty much non-existent. You cannot go wrong with any of the food. I got the chicken fried steak, red potatoes, over medium eggs and rye toast. She got the homemade sausage (to die for) with sourdough and we also got a side order of the pancakes. Everything was perfect. We will definitely make our way back when we are in the Mesa area!

At Joe's Farm Grill, the quality of ingredients does show in every single dish you get. Another thing to mention is, when you're done ordering your food at the register, they are pretty fast regardless of how packed the place is which pleasantly surprised me! For the onion rings, I liked them for a few reasons. Starting off, the onions weren't soggy by any means which I love in a good ring, batter wasn't the majority of the ring which is also a great sign, and lastly the crunch was very nice with them coming out fresh. The Fontina burger has a great beef patty that carries its flavor by how clean it tastes alongside the mushrooms that are the other biggest taste factor for this burger. Finally, the baby back ribs were the star for me personally because you can actually taste the pork for its quality. I usually expect a super sweet sauce that bogs me down after with ribs, but these ones left me feeling able to still go on about my day which I love. They aren't shake off the bone tender but I liked the gentle chew they provide. Overall, I recommend Joe's to anyone who cares more about the ingredient sourcing and quality while enjoying a nice family friendly vibe for a lunch/dinner. They have a great outdoor patio seating for times when it's not over 100 degrees.

We ordered two waffle dishes--one with bacon, eggs, sausage and potatoes and the other with chicken strips. Both had really good flavor, but we both agreed the waffles were a little on the dry side. My husband ordered the Ghost Chicken Sandwich and loved it. The garlic fries were also a hit! You really can't beat the setting here. Joe's Farm Grill is right on the farm, with indoor seating and a large, dog-friendly patio. It's such a fun and relaxing spot for a meal!

    Great pancakes!…read more Breakfast here was a win. I ordered nothing but pancakes. Buttermilk pancakes and Chocolate Chip pancakes. So so good. They were fluffy, smokin' hot, and beautifully plated. These pancakes are huge too. The plate of pancakes come as a stack of 3. I had a single chocolate chip and added one of the buttermilk pancakes to it and that was still plenty. The server and hostess were very nice and the atmosphere was quiet. I'll be back for lunch :)

    This place was surprisingly bad about accommodating my soy intolerance. I called in advance and was…read moretold they cook most things in a canola/olive oil blend, which is good for me. When I got there and ordered, I told the waitress about my intolerance and ordered a salad with chicken. When my food came out, I was told my salad didn't have chicken because I couldn't eat the chicken, or any other meat in the restaurant, because they coat it in Pam spray (soybean oil). For a place that prides itself on making their own dressings, etc., you'd think they could've figured out how to cook chicken in an oil that they use for everything else. Perhaps if they'd communicated better about my intolerance instead of not thinking about it until immediately when my food was ready (which was quite a while after we ordered), they could've found someone in the restaurant who was capable of making non-vegetarian food with something other than soy spray, but I may be giving them too much credit. They also didn't offer us a high chair for our toddler, which was strange. He wound up doing fine in the booth, which was for the best because a high chair probably wouldn't have fit well where we were sitting anyway. The waitress was apologetic and nice about my food screw up and offered to make me something else, but there wasn't much that could be done given that apparently no one in the restaurant knows how to cook meat without soy spray, plus we'd already waited quite a while for our food. The beet salad was tasty, as was the bread with honey butter and the Chai latte, but I would've left feeling more full if I could've added meat to my salad.
