Gilbert Black Bear Diner

Would've happily given a 5 star if the host had given a more accurate time estimation of wait time. Great food. Great service:)

Excellent bear claw, enough for 2. Fun decor. Arizona style food and souvenirs. Friendly talented staff.

Good home style cooking, and huge portions. You won't go away hungry.and breakfast is served all day too! Good food, good service, reasonable prices.

One of the best breakfast places Ive ever been to. Staff is always super nice and helpful. Went in on a Sunday morning and the service was amazingly fast. This is the second time Ive been here and will continue to visit this place. Well done!

Very disappointed in the pot roast. Never seen pot roast in cubes before. Totally ruined it. I ask to switch my corm bread for biscuit and was told no. Hubby enjoyed his breakfast for dinner

Best food ever. Sweetcream pancakes are awesome, as well as everything else we've tried. Go hungry as portions are huge. My wife and I can share a meal and still have leftovers.

Good food. Decent portions. Choose your visit wisely - a very popular place with considerable waits at times.

What a great restaurant. The food was so good. And fast service. We we're seated in under 10 minutes on a Saturday morning. The stake was perfect and flavorful. Pancakes we're the best I've had in AZ

Very good place to eat. We went this Friday, and we had all you can eat fish! Good thing I'm not Catholic; I had 3 helpings!

It’s good old home cooking, all from scratch. Prices are very good for the amount of food you get. The Bread Pudding is so yummy! Great family atmosphere!

Great place! Great food! Great people! This was our first visit and we loved it. We will definitely be back ️

I’m surprised this place is still open, I have heard this place is good from family out of state but here in Arizona, no thanks. Worst food I have ever had. Service wasn’t terrible but oh my gosh I’m glad I don’t have food poisoning. My husband ordered a sourdough cheeseburger with fries and his bread came out soggy on his burger and the tomatoes were old. His fries were barely warm. I ordered the chicken pot pie and it was disgusting. Raw dough on top and it was luke warm. The gravy tasted old and the chicken was so old and over cooked and rubbery that I could barely bite through it. Then I asked to order something else, I got the albacore tuna croissant sandwich and by the time it finally came out everyone else was pretty much done eating AND the croissant was so soggy. Turns out they put extra mayo on the croissant on top of the tuna salad already containing mayo in it. Overall very unimpressed and will never be dining here again. I highly suggest you dine somewhere else for the price you pay and the low quality food you receive.

This place never ever disappoints, food is always amazing for it's price! My wife and I split pancakes and biscuits and gravy. Can't ever go wrong with that! Only thing is the waiting time, but we can't be the only people out there to love them some black bear! Worth the wait every time!

Had driven past this past several times and saw it had great feedback and finally had a chance to try it, the interior of the place is cute but very disappointed in my meal, the trout was dry, not tasty and overcooked ended up giving it to the dog who did not even want to eat it, the bake potato hard as a rock and undercooked, sadly not impressed. The tri tip my husband said did not taste good and even the dog will not eat that.

Went there at 730am on a Wednesday morning because we had heard great things about the food. However we waited a good 5 min made eye contact with 2 employees and were completely ignored. We walked out and went to another nearby restaurant and were promptly taken care of. Wish the employees had just acknowledged us at least. Don't think we will ever be back such a shame that this was our first and only experience with a restaurant with what we heard had good food.

Food is okay, not great. I ordered biscuits and gravy, and the biscuit was very dense, and the side order of potatoes wasn't seasoned. It's typical chain food, pretty much exactly what I expected when I went in.

Stars are really coming off for service. The hostess didn't greet us when we walked in, just grabbed two menus and pointed at where she wanted us to sit. Our waitress was pretty curt, and never refilled our drinks. Food came out late, and no apology was offered. (Someone else brought it to us, and it was lukewarm, so I suspect she forgot and it sat out for awhile.) We also waited a long time for the check, and our cashier wasn't very friendly either.

In addition to all of that, while we were waiting for our food, I noticed that our waitress was practically screaming at a customer a few booths away from us, because he wasn't being clear on whether he wanted one side or two. It was very unprofessional and uncomfortable. I would have walked out if I was him.

All in all, food wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great. And, while I normally wouldn't leave a bad review because of one bad waiter, pretty much the entire staff was rude and abrupt, and they really weren't busy enough to justify it. I definitely wouldn't go back.

Awesome place n food! Large servings n great service! Good for large groups, also. Wheel chair accessable. Decorated as if youre in WI. Wildlife pics n decor.

The portion sizes are huge and definitely sharable! The coffee was great! Bear claw for dessert was. Just so much to try on the menu!

Always consistently excellent Homestyle dinners. Breakfast is the very best. Always hustling but servers are fast, friendly and efficient!

Awesome pancakes. Warm cozy Restaraunt with friendly staff. Perfect spot to take grandma when she comes to town. The seniors love this place. Reasonable with good coffee.
