I came here for dinner last night. Everything was cold. They put it in the microwave and heated it up. It was quite good after that. I came in here tonight for dinner. It was barely warm. My server never came around-not even once!! Someone else brought me my dinner. Service was really bad. I have come in here before however, the food was hot, service was good. They are not consistent. I will not be back here again. Other Black Bear Diners are quite good, good service, good food, and the food is always hot-just not this location.

Black Bear Diner is a reliable spot for classic American breakfast with generous portions and a cozy, family-friendly atmosphere. On my recent visit, I ordered the veggie omelet, which was fresh and packed with flavor. The pancakes were fluffy and delicious, living up to the diner's reputation for standout breakfast staples. The cinnamon roll French toast was a highlight—rich, sweet, and perfectly cooked, making it a must-try for anyone with a sweet tooth. While the food was consistently good across the board, the service during my visit had a hiccup. After switching up our drink orders, our server still brought the original drinks. This mix-up left a less-than-ideal impression; if there was any confusion, it would have been better for the server to clarify rather than get the order wrong. Attentive service is usually a strong point at Black Bear Diner, as many reviews praise the staff for being friendly and accommodating, so this may have been an off moment. Big thanks to Antonio for being so friendly and welcoming during our visit. It’s always awesome to meet someone who can make us laugh and feel at home—keep up the fantastic work, Antonio! You truly make a difference Overall, Black Bear Diner delivers on food quality and portion size, especially with breakfast favorites like omelets, pancakes, and unique French toast options. Service is typically good, but attention to detail with orders could be improved.

Moises and Umberto are the reason we come into black bear and we always need diner food in the middle of the night when we know they are there. The pace is aways cool, calm and collected as we want to end up at that hour. The food is always good. The cooks consistanty chef up good plates which is not easy to find late at night. It's a all-nighter gem in the middle of freemont
