Black Bear Diner

"My first impression of this branch was that the staff was extremely friendly and attentative. The food gets 4 stars because my open-face turkey sandwich came out with luke-warm turkey, and they removed the mashed potatoes that come on the sandwich, when we asked for a baked potato as a side, which seemed odd. Then I had to order mashed potatoes and put them on the food myself, 20 minutes later. Had the staff not been so chipper, I probably would downgrade the overall review. All the other food was really good and, once warmed up, mine was tasty. The decor was true to form and looked well kept and clean. Prices are amazing considering the amount of food you get. I don't have one near me, so I'll definitely be stopping back in when we're going through town."

"Everything about this restaurant was amazing. Service was great food was so freaking amazing. We have been traveling for a while and don't always get a great meal but this was so beyond good!! If we see another one we will definitely choose out over anything else!"

"2/1/24 arrived to a wonderful woman who had excellent customer service. We ended up talking with her later on during the visit. Our Server had horrible customer service to what seemed to be only to our table, but when at others tables excellent customer service. Steak, Shrimp Alfredo & a BBQ Cheeseburger was ordered. Steak was tough & over cooked in some parts & raw in others. BBQ Cheeseburger had hardly any BBQ sauce on it. Potato salad had no flavor what so ever. Shrimp Alfredo was changed to Chicken Alfredo just before the food was brought out due to the lack of shrimp. They could have let us know prior to our food being brought out. Only thing that was good was the Blackberry Margarita & the garlic toast with the Alfredo plate & garlic cabata bread & green beans with the Steak plate. Our bill was $90 & we left unsatisfied & still hungry. Not sure what we did to deserve that kind of service, but one thing for sure is that I will not be spending my money at this restaurant again."

"Rainy evening with medium congested flow of traffic to Gilroy's Black Bear Restaurant. Well in food originality and service. Brought back memories of a investigation and follow up with actors that met up with a wild bear attack after we left. Movie on file. Family dinner out, great."
