    Pancake Volcano Meal
    Betty H.

    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!

    UPDATE: I emailed them directly like they asked in a reply to my review, and the GM apologized for the experience I had, reassured that staff are well informed of the policy, and invited my husband and me back for a comped meal. We went today, and had a great experience. Thank you Noe for the excellent customer service. We will come back and enjoy Black Bear Diner Menifee.

    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.

    ​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.

    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.

The fries were so good as well. My boyfriend got the backyard Barbecue platter. Which is on their special menu that is only seasonal. He truly enjoyed his food and the ribs were so tender, this specific food option had a lot on the plate and will definitely get you very full and could even possibly share. Our server was Makenzie, she had such great service and is very kind and accommodating. Our waters were never empty or even pass the halfway point because she was so on top of checking on us and making sure everything was good. I highly recommend this local spot in Menifee, will return!!!

    A $25 cake-cutting fee shouldn't have overshadowed our son's birthday, but the way it was handled…read moredid. We've been coming here for years. It has been our go-to steakhouse, and we've even celebrated our anniversary here. We love the food, which makes what happened during our son's birthday dinner especially disappointing. After an excellent steak dinner that cost approximately $330, we brought out a small, pre-sliced ice cream Polar Pizza for our son's birthday. I began serving it myself because it was already sliced. The waitress then came over and, in a confrontational manner, announced that we would be charged a $25 cake-cutting fee. The fee may have previously been mentioned to my wife, but I was not aware of it when I began serving the cake. I understand that restaurants have policies, and a calm explanation would have been enough. Instead, the situation was turned into an unnecessary scene during our son's birthday celebration. Then another large male employee came over, stepped directly into my personal space, and angrily asked, "Would you bring beer into a bar?" He got right in my face without first asking what had happened or allowing me to explain. His tone and decision to get that close were aggressive, disrespectful, and completely unprofessional. We ultimately paid the $25 fee even though the staff did not cut, plate, or serve the cake. The fee was frustrating, but the confrontational way the employees handled the situation was far worse. Families considering celebrating a child's birthday here should confirm every outside dessert policy beforehand. In our case, what should have been a joyful moment for our son became an upsetting experience. It did not leave us feeling as though families celebrating with children were welcomed or valued. A simple and respectful conversation could have resolved everything in seconds. Instead, their response changed the entire mood and ruined what should have been a special ending to our son's birthday dinner. The food may still be excellent, but a restaurant is remembered for more than its steaks. After years of loyalty, the aggressive and disrespectful way this was handled during our son's birthday has cost them our business. We will not be returning.

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'd definitely come back for the herb crusted chicken and strawberry lemonade.

He decided to give me the gift card this evening to enjoy a nice meal as our kiddos were at their grandparents and he was working. I ordered a $30+ meal the 6oz sirloin + shrimp and two sides. I got it to go so I could enjoy it at home. While I was waiting (I had arrived very close to the pickup time), I noticed an employee standing next to the driver's side of a car talking to the driver, who appeared to be an acquaintance. I could clearly overhear the conversation, and the employee was saying things that I found completely inappropriate to be discussing while standing right in front of the restaurant, even if it was technically in the parking lot. Two minutes before my pickup time, I went to the to-go window and received my food. When I got home, I realized my rolls didn't include the house butter. Whatever! It's not the end of the world. But worth noting as you would think this would be standard to provide. What became really problematic was the meal itself. I ordered my steak well done, but it arrived bleeding and wasn't even close to medium well. Why ask how I want my steak cooked if you aren't going to cook it that way? The shrimp was cold and incredibly salty. The potato? How do you get a potato wrong? Well, somehow they managed...it was stale and overly salty too. The broccoli I don't even think was steamed for more than a minute before you gave it "seasoning". The entire meal was awful and for $30?! Hahahaha I guess really the joke was on me for paying such an absurd amount but I really was expecting some quality somewhere. It just wasn't there all at. We still have money left on our gift card, but we'll be giving it away because we won't be coming back. I didn't even bother calling to complain because, judging by the quality of the food, I don't think a complaint would make any difference. I added a photo of my "well done steak".
