    Bearlishous! Ok y'all, forget that In-n-Out thing. Black Bear is a California diner worth going to. We have been to several and every one has served fantastic food with a smile. Breakfast all day plus burgers and more including healthy options. For this visit we each chose the Hobo Joe omelet. Huge!!! Filling! Delicious! Y'all, the "biscuit" is more like a loaf of bread! But with that biscuit fluff. The gravy is so good. The interior is like walking into a huge mountain cabin with adorable black bear pics and accents. Great food. Great music. Great service. What's not to love! 30 years of growth says it all. We're Black Bear restaurant fans! Grrrrr!

    Ny New York Steak & Eggs*

    I ordered the NY steak with eggs and a side of fresh fruit, and everything was spot on. The steak was cooked exactly as requested--juicy and flavorful--and the scrambled eggs were light and perfectly done. The fresh fruit was a refreshing and healthy addition that balanced the meal nicely. Bread was extra portion. I will remove to tell them one slice is enough in order to prevent waste. As someone focused on eating high-protein, cleaner meals, being able to swap traditional sides for eggs and fruit makes a big difference. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the staff were not that friendly throughout my visit. It might be because of it's a truck stop. Usually, service standards are very low for truckers.

    This place is attached to a truck stop gas station. But the food is very well made and big portions. The servers are very welcoming and attentive. It has a very old time cabin feel. The food is so good and I recommend just to try it out.

    Meatloaf. Good. Not great.

    I've been twice. First time was awesome. Second not so much. Food was good. But service is key for me. I don't have a long enough lunch for you to forget an item I've asked for twice. Had there been more than 5 other people in the place I'd have understood. I don't think I'll go anymore. Pity. It's fairly close to my job.

    Enjoyed the food! Enjoyed the service. I didn't like the potatoes, but the rest was !

    Two out of three ain't bad. Food is outstanding and the prices are spot on. The ambiance is perfect. It's in the Petro truck stop. I've eaten at a few Black Bears over the years. I was excited that they opened here. With that. The service. It sucked. My waitress was terrible. She just had no sense of customer service. Come on. Don't let this be the norm here. Get yourself together and have the waitstaff focus on thinking if the customer has everything. I had to ask for a straw. Another refill. Hell I didn't even get a hostess. She just pointed at a table and called it good. Don't let your service ruin such a perfect union.

    This is the best Black Bear Diner location there is. They have kept most of the old wait staff from Iron Skillet but with the Black Bear Diner decor and, of course, the taste and value you've come to expect from any Black Bear Diner. Make no mistake, this is peak Truck Stop Diner. Always a good mix of friendly and busy here. Good portions that hit the spot whether or you're headed into or out of San Antonio. I can usually get a meal or two out of one plate of food. The biscuits and gravy is gargantuan, and the sweet tea refreshes like nothing else on I-10.

    This was our first time ordering dinner at this restaurant. We asked the waitress to give us a few minutes because we had never ordered dinner from Black Bear diner. We decided what we wanted, but we couldn't find our waitress. She disappeared for a while. She reappeared placed our order and for some odd reason my plate came out first and then we had to wait about 10 minutesfrom My Husband's to come out. She told us that I was given somebody else's plate of food that should not have been given to me . Seeing that there was nobody else in the restaurant but three other tables and they were already served we knew that that was a lie. My plate came with a wilted lettuce on it that was dark and slimy. It was so disgusting. The salad that came out would've been OK except the little cherry tomatoes were over ripe and very squishy. They were not fresh and we got two micro, tiny cherry tomatoes per salad, must've been a shortage on cherry tomatoes that day. I had the open turkey sandwich. The turkey meat was basically a turkey lunchmeat that was so dry and had no flavor. I just took a few bites and ended up taking the whole meal home to give to my dogs. Our waitress kept disappearing and didn't ask us for any refills on our drinks or how we were doing. She was a young girl with braces and had some kind of acne issue on her face. I failed to get her name unfortunately. I would like to also mention that the short older woman that was working the front register had six people ( I counted ) waiting to order takeout food or to cash out so they could leave the restaurant. There was nobody there to help her , never saw a manager insight either . I have eaten at many Black Bear diner restaurants this one I would not recommend until they get the quality of food under control and get better wait staff

    The menu is a newspaper

    Wonderful, delicious food that I would share with anyone visiting San Antonio. I had a bacon blue cheese burger that was hefty and very good! Loaded with thick-cut bacon, mushrooms and crispy, homemade onions merged with a horseradish aioli I barely finished this monster meal. Along with it was fresh cut french fries that served as the perfect side companion.

    Ohh La Boulangerie, what can I say but delicious. A cute spot on Broadway in downtown San Antonio…read more Sylvie the owner is originally from Western France and moved close to Paris then came to San Antonio. Their baking ingredients are sourced from France and the recipes are from her and her husband. And they're a local restaurant which I love supporting! We had the Petit Dejuener Deluxe breakfast which includes one pastry (either a croissant, chocolate croissant or bread pudding), a baguette (with either butter, homemade jam or honey), organic fresh eggs made to order or quiche slice, fresh squeezed orange juice and a yogurt with granola and fresh fruit and a black coffee or tea. It's a great option for those unable to decide on what to eat for breakfast. They have sandwiches, individual baked goods, à la carte items and hot and cold drink options as well. Coffee is strong n tasty Quiche is not dry at all Baguette and croissant are fresh baked Homemade jam Fresh squeezed OJ! Makes me happy! And for those in Austin...they opened a second location in Austin West lake area.

    Ok, second time in, and it continues to bring me back to Europe. The staffs hospitality, friendly…read morewelcome... I know a big name bakery opened up around the corner on Houston. For us it's good but screens tourists. La Baoulangerie is small, cozy, and a European feel. Then the food, come on now! You taste the homemade love. Yes, I will take a baked fresh, with French flour Baguette to go please! Downtown residence, if you haven't gone your missing out (from a guy who lives in Europe 3-4 months out of the year) Tourist... You will thank me later.
