    Biscuits, eggs, bacon, grits
    Martina M.

    Food was okay overall. I would rate it a 3.5. I didn't like that the food wasn't brought out at the same time for everyone at the table. I had to wait while others were already eating. I noticed the same issue at other tables as well. I also understand. The French toast was okay... crusted on one side and only lightly browned. I prefer my eggs with the cheese fully melted. The chicken sausage had great flavor but was very chewy. The biscuits were really big, heavy and tasty... I could barely finish half of one, and they give two per order. The ambience was clean and welcoming. The server was okay... she forgot my orange juice however when I politely reminded her, she remembered right away. I needed something to wash the biscuit down. It was a little busy at the time so I understand. Overall, it was a good experience. I would recommend it for a quick breakfast or brunch.

    Tried Black Bear Diner and got a breakfast bowl that was delicious. The customer service was great and the restaurant had a nice, welcoming atmosphere. A solid spot for a satisfying meal.

    The wait was 30-45 minutes but the bar is available for immediate seating - it was just two of us so the bar was great! We had the most amazing waitress Brenda - she was spunky, friendly and extremely attentive! Our food was great, awesome flavor and great portion size! It was a great family atmosphere.

    I love this place!!! It's an authentic west coast cabin al American restaurant feels like we are in big bear CA or northern CA. Service is always exceptional my family loves coming to have breakfast lunch here anytime. The food is delicious I had chicken fried steak full of flavor comes with two huge biscuits they don't disappoint. My husband had their breakfast burrito needless to say it was completely gone coffee is always fresh as the orange juice. They also serve mimosas bloody Mary's which I must say hit the spot. Family friendly atmosphere's we love coming here. The kids enjoy all the decor

    First time there and for sure the last time Ordered the potatoes with onions and peppers and it was burnt. I ate the potatoes and told the waitress if this was supposed to be black she said no I just can't believe you would serve stuff like that but since it was open where-you can see the cooks then I got it. She gave me a $5 coupon for next time but there ain't going to be a next time coupon was left .

    I moved to Katy about 2 1/2 years ago and this place has been on my to try list since then. On a random weekend, a friend of mine came to visit and we brought her and her daughter here and the food was so freaking good. I love their blackberry? Some kind of berry lemonade. I know I'm not saying the name right.. regardless it's freaking delicious. I love teddy bears, and this place is so campy and full of bears and has so many adorable gift shop items to buy like blankets and house shoes and sweaters and hoodies. There's also a giant dessert/ pie area. I'm not entirely sure if they make them in house but they look absolutely scrumptious. And can't wait to try them. The staff here is so kind and so engaging and so wonderful. My mom got to try this place with me as she brought me a couple days after I had surgery. I deserve to treat myself and also wanted some comfort food. The biscuits here are as big as your face and taste so good. Slather on a bunch of butter and grape jelly and you are set ! I've have yet to try any of the dinner items here but I do know they're open pretty late, which is awesome because I work late. I'm hoping to try them very soon for dinner, but will 100% be a return customer!

    This place has an array of breakfast food options. So there is plenty to choose from that will satisfy your belly. The service has always been exceptional. Fresh food and hot coffee. Clean establishment and friendly environment. A great place to enjoy breakfast or lunch. You won't be disappointed

    I love this diner. The staff is pleasant, the atmosphere is busy and comfortable. Great for a loner breakfast, catching up with friends, or with the family. The wait time can be lengthy during peak hours though so be mindful. Their servings are very large so come in with an appetite, I always have leftovers. I've not had one meal that I didn't absolutely love, everything is delicious!

    Def a typical American diner type of place with for sure highly quality food than u expect and lots of seasonal, fun options. Have visited with family many times over the years but it's not a staple, but I def a good neutral appeals to all audiences sort of place.

    Every time we eat at Blackbear Diner we request Jayden's section. She always has such a beautiful smile and cheery attitude. She always remembers we order coffee every time and brings it without us having to ask. She's pretty awesome. Our food is always hot and accurate, every single time! The restaurant is always clean and orderly. Blackbear's is amazing restaurant and the food is ALWAYS great but it sure does make everything taste that much better when your waitress has such a great attitude! Jayden is my favorite waitress of all time. She's simply the best ;-)

    We attended wreath laying day at the Veterans Cemetary and were starved for something tasty. I did…read morea quick Google search along our route and saw Nate's Diner pop up. I'll admit that when we got there, it doesn't look like much from the outside, but inside is a different feel. We were greeted and told we could sit where we like. We picked a table and a menu was promptly brought over with a warm welcome. I ordered the strawberry lemonade and the taco salad with beef. All very good! If you're in the area, give this place a try!

    My never ending quest for the perfect hashbrowns lead me to Nate's, which was further motivated…read moreafter realizing it was on my list for years. What I eventually found both surprised and delighted me, and Nate's gets a thumbs up overall. Pictures are deceiving as I thought the place would be larger but it's a tight fit for bigger groups. There are only a handful of tables but plenty of character. It's also a bit grimey, unsightly and even a tinge dodgey, which may be a deal breaker for others but is an immediate appeal to me. Two things immediately standout when it comes to the food: the portions and the prices are outstanding. The offerings are as no frills as the rest of the establishment. The other surprise was how much influence there was from Mexican cuisine. Hash browns were the goal, but chorizo and chilaquiles were the bonus. Another surprise? The hash browns weren't as crispy as I would have wanted. It's entirely plausible that I came on an off day, which happens. However everything else was on point as my chorizo skillet was absolutely dynamite, pancakes were fluffy and indulgent, breakfast tacos were outstanding, and my eggs were perfectly softly scrambled. Even the bacon and sausage patties were delicious, which is a tall order considering it's not likely made in house. Lastly, as someone who drinks cold water like it's a hobby (#1), I'm especially grateful for the massive 32 oz cup of water, which is perfect for someone who drinks like a camel. The staff is not the quickest but they are friendly. Spanish may go further with most and they're not the quickest when it comes to greeting folks or cleaning tables. The food is the star and consider paying in cash. ____________ (#1) I'm thirsty.

We started with the smoked boudin, it came out smoking hot and the moment you cut it open you know it's authentic. The smoked and mildly spicy flavor come together so good it makes your heart sing. We then had the fried chicken wings with sweet and spicy sauce on the side talk about explosions in your mouth!!!! The chicken was fresh and fried to perfection!!! We also had the infamous Daquiris you hear so much about, there are sooooo many options to choose from and i chose "She Incredible" I will say these drinks outshine and outdo MOST mixed drinks at bars without all the expensiveness associated with it! The night was topped with entertainment because there was a great game playing but also the option to participate in Karaoke. I was told on different night they have a different thing going on for the customers. This is a great go to spot with great drinks, great food, a great vibe, topped off with a great group of people that work there. I will def recommend and be back!
