"Our waiter appeared to be inexperienced. Even though I confirmed with him that I would be using a birthday coupon, I ended up having to pay full price for an extra meal because my order wasn’t covered by it. When I asked the manager for a discount based on the coupon, he was unhelpful. This resulted in a frustrating confrontation where I had to raise my voice, and after I paid, he walked away muttering that the situation was my fault. It seemed like he didn’t care whether I would ever return to the restaurant. Overall, my experience was disappointing. Should I consider coming back to this Black Bear Diner? At this point, my answer is a definite no!"

Beautiful ambience. Quick service. Welcoming staff. Food was okay. Maybe I expected more in term of presentation! It’s definitely worth trying if you are looking for traditional American breakfast place!

Loved the food. We had to wait for 20 min on a busy Sunday morning. Chicken Avocado Club sandwich was really nice. The season special Pumpkin sauce waffles with side of cream and maple syrup was refreshingly good.

This restaurant features an intriguing décor with bears adorning both the interior and exterior, which added a unique charm to our dining experience. The menus are designed to resemble old-fashioned newspapers, adding to the ambiance. As for the food, it was just average.

Delicious! The pancakes are delicious. The service is always friendly and welcoming. You feel like at home. We got eggs (you can have it any style), bacon and pancakes. There’s a lot to choose from their menu. The food is delicious and the service is excellent. Parking is easy. View menu

Ordered the fried chicken dinner meal, it came with 2 sides, I got onion rings and fries, a salad. It was delicious! My hubby ordered the chicken red steak meal with pancakes. It was delicious as well. Excellent customer service at the Milpitas Black Bear! They never dissapoint! I greatly recommend:

Simply delightful! The pancakes are outstanding. The service is always friendly and inviting, creating a warm atmosphere. We ordered eggs (which can be made to your liking), bacon, and pancakes. The menu offers a great selection of choices. The food is excellent, and the service is exceptional. Plus, parking is very convenient.

I went to Black Bear Diner today for brunch and ordered the chicken fried steak. It took a while for our food to come out, but it tasted okay initially. However, when I started eating my hash browns, I found a small piece of plastic in my food. It appears to be a fragment from a nutritional label on a food package. This was my first time going to Black Bear Diner in years, but after this experience, it may be my last. View menu

My husband and I came here for dinner and the food was fairly decent. Three complaints: The time it took our waitress to do anything was excruciating. Was easily a 30 minute wait for a Cobb Salad and Stuffed French Toast which was excessive. Price. 3 pieces of blackberry stuffed french toast, small serving of fruit, and some whipped cream was $15+. A Cobb salad was $17+ and my husband it was meh, he wasn't unpleased but wasn't blown away either.

10/30/2022 very busy location. Coffee kept full. Food arrived without table settings. Was given one napkin for three people. Had to ask for extra napkins. Looks like waiter is new. Confirmed with waiter use of birthday coupon but it turns out the order was not the birthday coupon I had to pay full price for an extra meal. Manager not willing to discount for the coupon. Manager led me to have to raise my voice at him as I paid. After I paid, he walked away muttering that it was my fault. I paid full price and he did not care if I came back. All in all not a good experience. So should I come back to this Black Bear Diner? At this point it is NO!

"I always go to this store as we live closeby. I always love to bring my kids in this store, and have them order their food. Yesterday, I went with my 3 yr old son (his bday) coz he wants a cake pop. I let him call the barista so she knows we're ready to order. My son said excuse me like 5 times, said hello like 3 times to get her attention coz she's talking with her coworker. She finally came up to us, my son ordered cakepops, I ordered 2 java chips and 1 mocha frappe. The baristas before were soooo nice, very friendly, welcoming but yesterday was the opposite. Btw, always sip a bit of your drinks before you leave the store coz yesterday I guess the barista who made the mocha frappe forgot to put in sugar syrup. I just found it today as my husband didn't drink his mocha frappe yesterday. Coz what if you just stopped by to get some drinks and you already left then found out something is wrong with your order. And also, they do not offer Java Chip anymore, so you gotta pay additional for the chips. The barista didn't even inform me about it, found out today when I checked the receipt online. I called in to let them know about my concerns, they offered to remake the mocha frappe. The barista who made our drinks was the one who took our order. Maybe she had a bad day. But then, I just wish the baristas will be more friendly and welcoming and inform the customer if a menu is no longer available so we have the option to change our order.

"Location in a small strip mall type place up on second floor. We were greeted and seated quickly. We got hot jasmine tea to drink so I did not ask for a drink menu. Make sure to let the tea seep for a few minutes before pouring! I am not sure if they have one but it looks like they have a full bar in the corner so would not hurt to ask! We were looking for dim sum but they had just a few dim sum plates in the appetizer section so we got an entree to share as well. We were given some complimentary peanuts to start that had some kind of sauce on them, they were very tasty! We got traditional “juicy” dumplings I believe they were called. Which was steamed pork dumplings, lots of flavor! I did not care for dipping sauce, was a bit too sour for me but they were great on their own. Cucumber salad and BBQ pork buns were good as well. We ordered Tofu and Eggplant in garlic sauce. It was good but a bit on the sweet side, I’d prefer it if it were a spicy sauce but that’s just my preference. Tofu and eggplant were cooked perfectly and the flavor was still very pleasant. We were full and didn’t order dessert however they brought us a complimentary filled dumpling dessert and it was my favorite part of the meal! Tasted like a vanilla custard filling and was so good but did not see it on the dessert menu! Could have ate a handful more of those! 18% gratuity is always included! Which was fine for me in this case for good service and food. With the gratuity we paid $30 each. A bit pricey but we had leftovers and with everything being as good as it was, it is worth in my opinion. Would recommend!"
