First time at the Manteca diner. Service was good; food served promptly and it was hot. My compliments for that because who wants to eat a cold breakfast. I had the Corned Beef Hash as I generally do. Hash browns were great and the Corned Beef was good. It could have stayed on the grill for another couple of minutes to give it that crispy edge, if you know what I mean! Will definitely come back again.
June 2025
My husband and I stopped at Big Bear Diner for a quick snack before continuing on a day-long journey. We ordered french fries and onion rings, plus a beverage. The food was delivered quickly, and it was the best french fry I had eaten in a long time. My husband said the same thing about the onion rings. The service was excellent. We enjoyed our time there. It made our pit stop totally worth it.

I enjoyed my breakfast here and this is my go to spot to hang out with my friend. I recommend trying their delicious breakfast and the service is always top notch. It’s conveniently located next to a highway and has plenty of parking! Bring friends and family to this location!
