"First time back since the pandemic started and honestly, you wouldn’t be able to tell there was ever anything wrong! Firstly, make reservations. We dd and it was a packed house. Table for in the main dining area. Great view of the city once the sun started to set. Staff was very attentive, especially since it was a birthday. The card was a nice touch The meat and cheese board was a great start along with the seafood platter. Not a huge fan of the crab cakes but, the ahi and shrimp were good Prime rib was great. Maybe not the same as Lawry’s or Crowns but, I would definitely recommend. The filets were okay. A little small for being But, was cooked a little too much Overall, the food was good and the service was better. That makes all the difference for me."

"I found this place on a Google search for Mexican restaurant with vegetarian options. The place did not disappoint me. It is Japanese and Mexican fusion cuisine done well. The have a great selection of Margaritas, definitely all should try their Margarita Flight. I had there habanero infused inferno and it was pretty good. The dirty fries are a good starter choice. The atmosphere and vibe of this place is really cool and service excellent. Planning to visit again. Five star fit the food, vibes, service and easy parking."

"I recently visited Izakaya Takasei and had a mixed experience.My boyfriend and I ordered the takoyaki, chicken cutlet and egg rice bowl, several yakitori, takowasabi (raw octopus with wasabi), and the Kobe beef roll. While the takoyaki and yakitori were delicious, the chicken cutlet and egg rice bowl was really bland. The Kobe beef roll was a bit odd with the combination of garlic butter and tataki sauce. Unfortunately, there were also a few items on the menu that were no longer available, which was a bit disappointing. It would be good for the restaurant to update their menu to avoid any confusion or disappointments.While the food at Izakaya Takasei comes out quickly, this can also be a double-edged sword. During my visit, my boyfriend and I received several dishes at once, which meant that a lot of our food was sitting out and getting cold while we were eating the others. It would be great if the kitchen could pace the dishes better to ensure that everything is served at the optimal temperature.The service was a bit lackluster as well. The only time we were able to ask for condiments, utensils, and more water was when the employees brought our food out. No one checked on us throughout our meal, and it would have been nice to have a more attentive staff.On the plus side, the restaurant has nice Japanese decor and is quite spacious. However, there was no background music, which made the ambiance a bit dull.Overall, while there were some drawbacks, Izakaya Takasei may be worth checking out if you're in the area and in the mood for some Japanese cuisine. Just be sure to join the wait-list on Yelp beforehand and check in with the host when you arrive."

"We celebrated a birthday on a Monday night and the place was pretty well occupied. There were some large parties (7+ people . Granted, we went on 12/27, so maybe people took time off for the holidays but they seemed quite understaffed. There was onebartender, 1 chef, and two servers for ~40 people so service was a little slow. The food was delicious kind of pricey butthe portions were generous. It was unfortunate but some of their menu options were unavailable (i.e. lobster appetizer . All thedrinks/cocktails have agave wine (instead of hard liquor like tequila, rum, etc. in them."

"A Delightful Breakfast Experience at the Black Bear DinerI recently had the pleasure of dining at the Black Bear Diner, and I must say, it was a remarkable experience that left me feeling satisfied and impressed. From the moment I stepped through the door, I was greeted with warmth and genuine hospitality. The aroma of hickory smoke bacon filled the air, immediately whetting my appetite and setting the stage for a memorable breakfast.I opted for the classic combination of hickory smoke bacon, over medium eggs, country potatoes, and a medley of red and green peppers and red onions. The skillful preparation of these ingredients resulted in a dish that was nothing short of perfection. The bacon was delightfully crisp, and the eggs were cooked just the way I like them. The country potatoes were seasoned to perfection, and the colorful blend of peppers and onions added a delightful touch of flavor and texture. Every bite was a symphony of taste that left me craving more.What truly made this dining experience stand out was the exceptional service provided by Jennifer, our server. She effortlessly managed the bustling restaurant, seamlessly attending to both dine-in customers and those placing orders to go. Despite the demands of her role, Jennifer always had a smile on her face and treated each customer with the utmost care and attention. Her warmth and efficiency made us feel right at home, and it was clear that she genuinely enjoyed her work.The coffee at the Black Bear Diner deserves special mention. It was outstanding—rich, smooth, and the perfect complement to my meal. It was clear that the diner takes pride in the quality of their beverages as much as their food.The overall ambiance of the Black Bear Diner was cozy and inviting. The rustic decor and friendly staff created an atmosphere that was welcoming and comforting. It was the kind of place that made you want to stay and linger, savoring each moment and enjoying the company of loved ones.In conclusion, my visit to the Black Bear Diner was a truly delightful experience.
