    Mini volcano with a side of grits
    Abi D.

    I must say this is my favorite black bear dinner right now. Worth the drive. Very kind people from the moment you walk in. There is a calm cozy atmosphere that's best to have at breakfast. Then when you're leaving they make you want to come back. The food was perfect in price, the amount served and overall even better taste. The grits were just the way I love them, served with the right kind of butter and cooked right. Pancakes are fluffy enough but not too big, they're made with love you can taste. Turkey club and fries was too much for my son to finish but he really enjoyed it on sourdough bread(and he's picky). My friend and her son truly enjoyed the blueberry pancakes so much they ate more than they usually do. The biscuits and gravy were BIG biscuits, but no complaints about that, my partner and my friend's other son devoured them. I believe saying that should tell you enough. Highly recommended place to grab a good well served meal with the right kind of energy. Only reason I couldn't give 5 stars is for small details I didn't like but that depends on each person's mood so I won't get into that. See for yourself and I know you won't regret it.

    This location was short staffed on my visit here. We seen the waiter twp times during our dinning experience. Once to take our order, the second time was was to give us our check. The food was brought to us by another staff member. They gave large portions and the food was well prepared.

    Honestly, not bad! I'm a real stickler when it comes to my breakfast/brunch foods, especially my sausages & this place didn't let me down! Portion sizes were decent for the money, however, there are some menu options that are bit pricey, but I like to think it's because of inflation at the moment. Especially with our eggs. Also, I was almost turned away too because their menu is HUGE! Usually that means food quality & standards are lower because they have to account for too many options but this didn't seem to be that big of an issue here, some things could have been better like the bacon tasted old & it was cold & soft but yah. Our waiter was nice & he was decent with his check ins, but he did seem a bit distracted but I think it's because he and one other girl I saw on that side of the restaurant were covering that whole side of the dining room. The ambiance is cute, it has little bear figurines everywhere but some of the stuff was dusty. I really enjoyed coming here despite its sketchy location. It is on one of the busiest, loudest, & craziest streets in MoVal. & it seems they have a lot of people waiting outside so just be careful if you have little ones and you're waiting outside for a table. Other than that, great breakfast spot & would eat here again.

    Friendly staff members, they welcome each guest with a hello and a smile. So many options to choose from their menu and their daily specials. Food is always fresh, great portions for the price you're paying. Restaurant is always clean and the decor is a rustic feel. Be sure to purchase a souvenir from the choice of items as you leave.

    Stephanie, I understand that safety is your top priority. As a mother of a 7-year-old, a toddler, and currently pregnant, I completely understand the importance of keeping children safe. If you review the video carefully, you will see that we were holding our toddler while preparing to put him down. We were already securing him. It just so happened that Nancy walked by and saw him standing at that moment. While I understand your concern about safety, my question is: why was a family with a toddler seated in such a busy, high-traffic area in the first place? We were never asked whether we were comfortable sitting there, despite the obvious safety concerns. My main issue, however, is not the safety reminder itself but the way Nancy communicated it. Her approach was unprofessional and lacked basic courtesy and empathy. Most of your staff were polite and respectful, which is why Nancy's behavior stood out. She did not offer to help move the chair or assist us in any way. Instead, she simply stared at us and shook her head, which came across as rude and unpleasant. As a family trying to enjoy a meal on a Sunday, we found the interaction unnecessary and disappointing. I would strongly recommend additional training on customer service, professionalism, and respectful communication to ensure that concerns are addressed in a helpful and courteous manner.

    This country style restaurant made me feel like I was in the south and I loved it ! I had never heard or been to black bear diner before but it was my husband and I wedding anniversary and we wanted to get southern brunch somewhere local to us . We decided to stop by around 2pm on a Sunday and as soon as we ate our food we decided that we need to bring our family back here one day because that's how much we enjoyed it . That being said we ordered the chicken strips and waffles , strawberry French toast , chicken fried steak , chicken soup , biscuits, cornbread and tropical mimosas . We definitely had left overs because the portions are big but I was happy to eat it again later that day from how good it was . The menu was a huge newspaper (three big pages ) . They had so many options of food to choose from so we just ordered what we thought sounded good at the time . The service was good , her name was Alesha (I could be spelling it wrong) . She was attentive and friendly. Excited to go back with the family ! Con: location is in the not so nice part of Moreno Valley off of the Perris exit, across from a Denny's . Next to a gas station with homeless people walking around . Pros: Delicious Southern Food , Affordable and cute Restaurant

    Black Bear Diner in Moreno Valley is always busy for breakfast and brunch, and for good reason - they serve delicious comfort food in a wonderful black bear-themed diner. This restaurant is located just south of the 60 freeway on Sunnymead Blvd near Perris Blvd in Moreno Valley. There are plenty of parking spaces in this shared lot. Upon entry, it immediately feels you've walked into a log cabin. The ambiance is warm and inviting with chatter that fills the air. Check in with the host and, while you wait to be called, peruse the black bear-themed items available for purchase. This restaurant has plenty of tables, booths, and a few seats at the counter. Interaction between the staff have always been a pleasant experience. One of my favorites here is their freshly squeezed orange juice and, from time to time, I'll order a cup of coffee. The coffee always comes out piping hot but the flavor is just okay . Oddly, drinking it feels comforting and the server keeps it filled. Another favorite of mine is their sweet cream pancake: fluffy and simply dusted with powdered sugar. I can eat it just plain like this. Their scrambled bowls are also pretty good with a bit of everything savory in the dish. They also serve dinner, which I have yet to try. And a display case full of desserts. Overall, my experience at Black Bear Diner was a busy breakfast and brunch spot with a large menu of comfort food in a woodsy setting. If not for the long lines in the morning, I'd have more visits to this place. Solid 3.8 for me.

    Loved the first ever experience at black bear diner. The place was buzzing with guests enjoying their Sunday afternoon. Classic diner menu had us from hello. Service was excellent and super fast paced to keep up with crowd. We enjoyed our plentiful breakfast. They are open on holidays for those who don't have plans with family. You can find a seat here among warm hearts who invite you to join them and stay a while!

    See all
