    Had to give 1 star because you can't give a zero. Got to the restaurant at 9:45am. Waited to be seated. Sat down was given 2 empty cups for coffee and our waters. Waiter told us he would be back with coffee. Here we are thinking oh good we are going to get freshly made coffee. Seen another server fill coffee cups but ours remained empty. We were waiting for the coffee for approx 10-13 minutes. I wasn't about to chase the waiter down. If I had it my way, I would have grabbed the pot myself and filled our cups. I've never been brought empty cups ever. Always full cups of coffee wherever we have had ate. Left the restaurant at 10:13 Sadly, not going there again And we were so looking forward to our breakfast plate...the grizz Too bad

    Before (Chicken Avocado Club and the Tri-Tip Dip) (Not pictured Huckleberry Lemonade and Fresh Squeezed Orange Juice)

    This is our first time trying this spot, but it was worth the review. The ambiance to start is cozy, the AC is cold which is great when it's hot out. We were seated right away, Mario was our server. He was efficient and kind, we placed our order for our drinks and food. We got the fresh squeezed orange juice, you can see the oranges ready to be squeezed nearby. It was delicious. The huckleberry lemonade was amazing as well. We got the tritip dip and honestly the au jus isn't needed. The tritip was so juicy, it was flavorful, and the portions were generous. The onion rings were great as well. The chicken avocado club was delicious, the chicken wasn't dry either, the portions were also generous on this plate, the lettuce looked fresh. The ranch was great. All of this for 53$!

    The food is delicious and fresh. Our server, Courtney, is the best! She's friendly and attentive. The restaurant is well-designed and cozy. I highly recommend this place. I will definitely come back.

    The is my first time experiencing menudo and it was a great experience. This place food is authentic! They have everything from break fast, lunch and dinner specials to accommodate the whole family. Prices are reasonable and it can get busy so plan ahead on the weekend. Team Smiley sent

    A very classic and comforting diner feel, but the service was kind of slow. I'd recommend it if you have time to wait and slowly enjoy your food, but not if you want a quick brunch place. Overall, the food was pretty good though. I got the build your own breakfast, and it was pretty standard eggs, bacon, and a waffle. Nothing super special, but just classic diner food done well.

    I'm not sure what's happening. Our waitress ignored us. Didn't offer a drink order. Didn't bring extra napkins. I had to go to the bathroom to get papertowels. I have the 4piece chicken and obviously you need more that 1 small napkins. She never checked on us until we were done with the meal. She didn't bring butter for my corn on the cob... not sure why? We tried to stop her to ask for our drinks and she kept walking while we shouted our order to her. Very rude and discouteous. This is our second negative contact with this place. The food was burnt.... ham steak and potato over cooked/burnt black and chicken was greasy. We won't be going back to this location. We tip waitresses very good bc they have a hard job but you ma'am did not rank any tip at all. Then we had 2 live wants walking on our table when the food arrived. We had to kill them while eating lunch. Gross

    Black Bear Diner didn't disappoint. The food was so delicious. We had so much food we had to take some home. Loved their coffee it was good. Service was great. Our waitress was attentive. Only comment would be I wish there was a hostess at the front and cashier. There was a bit of a wait but would have been nice to not have to wait for someone. Ambiance - It's a diner LOL During breakfast there's a lot going on, lots of families with kids, etc. But it was totally fine and expected.

    Another great Sunday breakfast with Michelle our wonderful waitress. Great food great and people.

    Great Sunday breakfast at Blackbear with our wonderful waitress Michelle. Breakfast, lunch and dinner great food.

    Me and my husband ate at this location last week for the first time and enjoyed ourself so much we came back the following week. We went both days on a Tuesday around 1:30 and it wasn't that busy our waitress Michelle let us sit where ever we wanted, I appreciated that. She was our waitress for both days and each time she was attentive, hospitable and welcoming we came back because of her. Last week I tried the BLT on sourdough and this week I ordered the steak and eggs with hashbrowns and toast for $12.99 it was their mon-fri special it was alot of food at a great price. The food and their strawberry lemonade was good. The food, the decor and our waitress Michelle made it an enjoyable and pleasant experience.

I am not easily impressed but I had to have another of that sauce. The only thing I would critique is the beef perhaps could have been sliced. If I tried to take a bite - a bit of the fillet mignon tip would fall out. Minor complaint. The only reason I cannot give a 5 is when I came for lunch on a weekday I noticed no one at the counter while I ate. Some people came and walked out because no one greeted them. I think one guy was on a break and some girl was doing something else. That is the only thing I would say was bad and it did not personally happen to me. The ambiance is nice - I liked the decor but my girlfriend claimed it was a bit much for her. Me personally? I thought it was cool!

The server was patient at the beginning and because we were still looking over the menu, my iced tea took awhile, I'm not sure if they were brewing it or not. When we ordered it took almost 25 minutes to get our food. I ordered a chicken sandwhich and my friend ordered a burger. I never got my iced tea refill. I felt like with us sitting on the patio they kind of forgot about us. I know a family that sat outside ended up leaving. Super cute place. Good food. Just slow service. I will probably give this place another try if I am ever in the area.

    This was my first time ever coming to this place in Ontario, and I didn't know they had a location…read morein Norco. It was a Sunday when we got here, and the line was out the door. It did move pretty fast than expected and service was quick. While my husband and I were waiting, we were reviewing the menu. They had a lot of good choices that definitely sounded good for Sunday breakfast, and eventually I settled on the corned beef hash plate with potato's and fruit instead of eggs. My husband saw the chalkboard menu and chose the kalbi short ribs with fried rice and Mac salad. We also added French toast On the side to share. After placing our order, they let us know what seat number we were seated at and went outside to our table. The outdoor patio was very nice, open spaced and shaded well enough that the sun wasn't reaching us. The seats were comfortable enough and the table space was generous for a party of 4 (I know they had tables for 6 and combined tables for larger parties). When our food was brought out and we began to eat, the food had a lot of flavor. I did pick off my husband's plate and have to say everything he had was very good. I have no complaints about the taste or presentation of the food we got, and would definitely check it out again to try something else.

Came in on Monday morning around 11, which by all the reviews I was expecting a line, but there was only two people ahead of us. You order your food then they assign you to a table. They have so many options to choose from, to savory to sweet. I ordered the loco moco, which was okay. Personally I don't like sticky rice, the rice wasn't good to me. More on the clumpier side. But the katsu was good. The gravy was a little sweet. Overall it was good. My husband had the Hawaiian bbq steak breakfast, I loved it. It was really good. Very flavorful and filling. I honestly loved the mushrooms. Chefs kiss !!! The lava pancakes were super moist and not as sweet, which was really good. I wish they would have put more macadamia nuts for more crunch. Definitely a MUST TRY !! The Hawaiian coffee was pretty decent. Not as sweet. I wanted it to be a little stronger but it was good. They had seating inside and outdoor. Very clean and spacious. Employees kept coming around asking if everything was okay or if we needed anything. Definitely coming back

We got the tri tip with Gorgonzola butter. The meat was very tender and flavorful and the butter enhances the flavor of the meat. We got the lemon chicken. The sauce is so tasty. I did get pink in my chicken. We returned it to the person who brought out our food and notified them the chicken was still uncooked. They came back and gave us even more chicken. You get hints of lemon in the sauce and bombs of flavor from the seasoning and garlic. I like how the Caesar salad is over dressed. Some people don't like it like that. The family meal of salad was a big portion. I enjoyed it. The breadsticks are always good. Dip it in the sauce of the trip tip / chicken. So good! We also got carrot cake. The cake was delicious. Not too sweet. But when you eat it with the frosting it gets sweet. We went on a Monday evening. It was busy because I noticed there was a few big parties in line before us.so it can get loud. But the restaurant is big and you can choose your seat.

With Diane in tow, we were pleased that a large parking lot was directly across the street from the restaurant. And as we entered and were seated in a booth in the bar area, an elegant but understated woodsy ambiance greeted us. Wanting to sample a cross-section of offerings, we began our dinner with soup and salad. Diane liked her bowl of orange-hued Lobster Bisque, and I enjoyed my bowl of hot and angry-red Garden Tomato Soup and salad of Field Greens with multi-colored Grape Tomatoes. Flatbread smeared with Herb Butter was very good, as well. A few Grilled Sea Scallops were warm and sizable enough as an appetizer, in addition to a side skewer of fairly large and tasty Grilled Shrimps. And Diane and I both raved about our chosen entree of Ginger-Sesame Glazed Chilean Sea Bass. The fish was flaky and cooked perfectly--in the league of the best we have ever had. At first I was disappointed that the restaurant was out of requested Tartar Sauce. But it soon became apparent that none was needed. A bed of Rice Pilaf served as a soft base for the fish for me, and Diane had Yukon Mashed Potatoes fulfill the same purpose for her chosen main. Specially requested French Fries were also gladly prepared by the chef. The skin-on variety, they were soft on the inside and okay overall. Throughout the course of the meal we received excellent multi-person service, led by our principal server, Marie. We expect to return for more of that wonderful Sea Bass. XXXX-1/2 stars overall for this initial outing!
