    This is what I received for my free birthday breakfast yuck
    Lee S.

    ​I wanted to provide an update on how this was handled. Following my review, the manager of the Menifee location reached out and offered a $40 credit to cover a future visit and replace the meal we were unhappy with. ​While I appreciate the manager taking the time to address the situation and offering to make it right, my wife and I have decided not to return. Between the distance from our home in Perris and the initial experience with the food quality--specifically the stale biscuits and overly salty gravy--we've decided it's best to just move on. ​We'll be sticking to the Moreno Valley location in the future, but I do want to acknowledge that the Menifee management made a professional effort to resolve the issue.

    Pancake Volcano Meal

    Conveniently located right off the 215 FWY on McCall and Bradley with plenty of parking. We came for a hearty breakfast and loved it! The Waffle Bear's Choice Meal (waffle, 2 eggs, 2 sausage links) was fresh and delicious. Kudos to the kitchen for great food and presentation. The restaurant is clean, organized, and has a cozy, "Bear-y" themed atmosphere. Service was amazing, our server Vanessa M. was attentive, kept the coffee flowing, and rushed a last-minute hash brown order out to us in no time. Excellent experience overall. We will definitely be back!

    BEARY DELICIOUS! We had a better service during this go. We stopped by for a late brunch and had a nice cup of coffee and some breakfast classics. The place was buzzing with families. I enjoyed sitting closer to the front of the restaurant last time. The booths in the back are a little tight lol.

    Classic French Toast
    Jennifer T.

    Everything we ordered was SO good and totally hit the spot! We ordered the French toast, three link sausages, a spinach omelette, sourdough toast, and hashbrowns and honestly, every single dish was delicious. The omelettes were fluffy and packed with veggies, the hashbrowns were perfectly crispy, and the sausage links were juicy and flavorful. The French toast was soft, warm, and just the right amount of sweet Portions are huge, classic comfort-food style, and perfect for sharing. Prices are very reasonable for the amount of food most breakfast plates are around $12-$18, which is a great value. The restaurant has that cozy, cabin-style diner vibe Black Bear is known for, and it's super family-friendly. Service was friendly and fast, and parking was easy. They're open daily from 6 AM to 10 PM and serve breakfast all day, which is always a win Everything was fresh, filling, and comforting we'll definitely be back again!

    Huckleberry Lemonade
    Cynthia W.

    This restaurant has been around for a few months now. We were coming from our daughters gymnastics class nearby so we decided to stop by. We were able to be seated right away. We ordered our drinks; huckleberry lemonade, coffee and chocolate milk. We ordered an omelette kids pancakes and sides of bacon and another meal. We paid $91 dollars, but it was yummy. We didn't take any leftovers home which is a good sign... it means my two girls ate it up. The restaurant theme was obvious and spot on. It was busy, but the staff were moving quickly and efficiently. Our waitress was paying attention to us because she was checking in on us often. We were also able to pay our bill easily and we will return again.

    This is our first time eating at Black Bear Diner. Upon entering we waited awhile before anyone seated us. It was 11:00am Tuesday. They weren't very busy. Once seated, it took our waitress quite awhile to come to the table. We asked another lady for coffee. Finally the waitress came by, she wasn't the friendliest. The food was good and big portions, we ordered from the less breakfast menu, and it was a lot of food. The bear claw was $7.99 but so delicious. The service wasn't the best, the waitress came back to the table after we finished eating to ask if we wanted more coffee. I would have given 4 stars if the service was more pleasant.

    Shasta Scramble with country potatoes and Biscuit
    Christopher V.

    The Shasta Scramble was decent, the country potatoes were under done and I was not able to eat much of them. The biscuits were good. Service was slow had time to write this review as I was waiting for the check.

    Chicken Chicken Avocado Club
    Regine A.

    If you're hungry, you can never go wrong with black bear! This location provided quick and welcoming service. The inside is spacious and clean. I ordered the chicken avocado club with a side of fries. It was fresh and tasty. Per usual, I had leftovers to take home. The portions are always generous. My husband got the chicken fried steak. It was so good!! It was tasty and crunchy - just how we like it. I love how the kids menu also has a lot of options.

    Homemade Chili (420-840 cals.) and Cornbread Muffin
    Michael M.

    Stopped in just after 4 pm to beat the crowd. Wasn't super hungry so I ordered the bowl of chili. Tyler was our server and he was more than helpful! The chili was hot and very thick, really good too! It came with a cornbread muffin and was filling. The place was very clean and not too crowded. Overall, I would have the chili again. I left feeling full and satisfied.

    Review for Black Bear Diner - Sun City, CA I woke up wanting to take my family out for breakfast, so we decided on Black Bear Diner. My wife, my two daughters, my son, and I got there around 7:20 a.m. We were seated pretty quickly, and our drinks came about ten minutes later. I was really hungry, so I ordered the Grizz. I asked if I could swap the sausage for a hot link, and they told me it would be an upcharge, which was fine with me. This is where things went downhill. It took close to 45 minutes for our food to come out. When mine finally arrived, there was no hot link--instead, they brought out spicy sausage patties. The eggs were cold, the ham and bacon were cold, and the pancakes tasted stale. Honestly, it was probably the worst breakfast I've ever had, and for a family of five it came out to about $90. They tried to take my meal off the bill to cover up the mistake, but I didn't let them. I'd rather they acknowledge the issue instead of pretending it didn't happen. If you're looking for a disappointing breakfast and management that doesn't seem to care, this is the place. Server was Any (Annie), manager on duty was Nancy. Visit was on 11/25/2025. Cashier:Baqli. This was a complete failure on Black Bear Diner's part, and the lack of attention from management really showed. Customers shouldn't have to pay the price for that. However paying attention to their reviews; I can tell BBD doesn't care; as nothing seems to be changing.

    Build your own breakfast combo with scrambled eggs, bacon and biscuits and gravy.

It's not often you find a place committed to making everything from scratch, but Savage Chef delivers on every level. Definitely a spot we'll be coming back to again and again! PS: If I could give them 10 Stars, I would because Holly went above and beyond any service you can ever expect. My Hubs and I were driving back from a weekend in San Diego when we found this gem. We dined, had great conversations with staff, other customers and even Dylan, himself! We left, went to a supercharger to charge my car. Got home (35 mins away), before my Hubs realized he left his phone at the restaurant. I remember them saying they closed late. Called. They answered. Holly was still there and had the phone. She literally offered to bring it to us since we were far away but we couldn't put her out the way and Hubs needs his phone to drive his car. Drove back to the restaurant. Got there around 1:17am, Sunday, 06/14/26, and there was her smiling face with my Hubs phone. Thanks Holly and Alejandro for staying so we could get the phone. #SavageChefBarAndGrill #FoodieFind #MadeFromScratch #10StarExperience #SupportLocal #FoodieLife #InlandEmpireEats

There was no wait for a booth, and the restaurant had a fun, family-friendly atmosphere with TVs throughout the dining room. The complimentary bread was warm, fluffy, and fresh. The cinnamon butter was tasty, though definitely on the sweeter side. The peanuts were exactly what you'd expect from Texas Roadhouse. For drinks, we tried the blue lemonade and strawberry lemonade. The blue lemonade tasted pretty similar to regular lemonade, but the free refills were a nice bonus. The strawberry lemonade was the standout and definitely worth ordering. We also tried the Dragonfruit Sparkler, which was fruity, refreshing, and one of the better specialty drinks on the menu. For entrees, the Herb Crusted Chicken Dinner was the clear winner. The chicken was juicy, flavorful, and well-seasoned, and the corn on the side was surprisingly delicious. The Country Fried Chicken Dinner was just okay. It wasn't bad, but I've had better versions elsewhere, and even with the gravy it felt a little lacking in flavor. The fries were pretty standard. Another plus was the large parking lot and the reasonable prices. The portions were generous, and overall the meal felt like a good value for the money. A special shoutout to Candace for providing friendly and attentive service throughout our visit. Overall, Texas Roadhouse delivered a solid dining experience with good food, affordable prices, and a welcoming atmosphere.

I met one of the owners and he was very charming and we had a nice chat and he handed me a discount coupon for a free appetizer or something for my return which is a clever move.

Applebee's regulars be prepared for a new experience that might shock you if you can take the leap. The lovely plated dishes coming out of that kitchen were top-notch architectural masterpieces. I will have to return soon, but I'm vegetarian so I might have some limitation, but we'll see. Maybe they'll whip something up? The interior is trying to be real hip and it sort of works in a positive way but a little bit of that modern gauche. You know, kind of like Z gallery meets mid-century with a slight Lichtenstein tribute with a cartoonish flavour. It does work though, and carries to the exterior or the exterior carries to the interior? With the limitations of a strip mall it's a little bit hard to put lipstick on a pig.

First off, I really don't understand all the great reviews about his place, they're the reason we visited. The Hostess was awkward and visibly upset when we asked for a booth when she suggested we eat next to a hot window. We were sat at a booth right next to the unisex bathroom and kept getting gusts of stinky poop smell. The ambience is very annoying, it seems as if they are confused about what kind of restaurant they want to be. Is it a Sports Bar? Fancy Mexican Restaurant? Night Club? The menu makes you believe it's a Fancy Mexican Restaurant, all the while the tv's by the bar play sports games and loud annoying music over the sound system makes you believe it's a Sports Bar/Night club. Now the food...the food is awful. The end. (Well, what we ordered anyway) But more specifically, imagine the worst Mexican fast food served on a fancy plate... Soft Drink 1 $5: Sprite: Good Soft Drink 2 $5: Coke: Bad (too syrupy and flat) Bean, Cheese and Rice Burrito $16: Beans tasted old and burnt, rice tasted old and stale (possibly microwaved). The only decent thing was the tortilla. Carne Asada Quesadilla $18: The Meat tasted dry and old, hardly any cheese and tortilla was dry. Rolled Taquitos $15: The only kind of edible dish that was served, still not very good, We were expecting something much different from the original title and description. Taquitos are small, chicken tasted old and the sauce was just canned enchilada sauce. This dish should be called "Mini Taquitos Enchiladas"(to be nice) or "Taquitos Abominación" (to be honest) Seems like they just plated them very nicely as to cover up the mediocre taste. One positive is that the service was amazing, our server (Angelina) was very attentive and friendly. The food came out quick, which in this case, wasn't a good thing. We did mention to our server that the food "wasn't very good" she said we "should've said something earlier" (not sure what that meant) but we still decided to pay the full amount. I wish they could've accommodated a refund or percentage off the check or something. The total amount for everything including Taxes & Tip was $74.77. Very over priced especially for what we've experienced and ultimately not worth it. We will not be returning to this place. It's a shame we hardly finished our plates (we were hungry mind you) except for the taquitos which were somewhat the only edible thing on the table besides the chips, both of which still being not good, including the salsas that were provided. I'm hoping they do some quality control on every item on the menu, They truly need it. You should be ashamed, Tacos & Tequila. P.S. And to top it all off, we both are experiencing stomach issues after consuming their food, I'd say stay away from this place. And for the love of God don't trust the rave reviews!!
