Second helping of Friday's All-You-Can-Eat Fish Fry!
John P.

Four of us met at the Black Bear Diner (Sandy location) on Friday to try the "all-you-can-eat" fish fry! What a delightful treat! You start with three large pieces of delicate fish in a crispy bread coating, not greasy at all. They came with a generous pile of french fries, tartar sauce and fry sauce, and freshly made coleslaw. What's not to love! Additional servings (second and third helpings in our case) were offered cheerfully. We had an attentive waitress who quickly catered to all our requests. Delicious helpings of peppermint chocolate cream pie and blackberry cobbler completed an outstanding meal. I give the Black Bear Diner another five star review because they never fail to deliver a great experience.

Take out omelette with crispy bacon. & hash browns. This was AMAZING!
JaCoy H.

Even my take-out was AMAZING! My omelette was moist, and my bacon was crispy, just like I asked for. Thanks you!!

Slow-Cooked Pot Roast (460 cals.)

This restaurant tries so hard and has great, attentive staff. We love coming for breakfast. They have great kid meals and generous portions, great with coffee refills, and friendly service. They remember details like condiments, kid cups, plenty of napkins and aren't bothered when you have kiddos with you. Lots of parking. There was one night we came with a large party and even though they served us well, we could tell there was some drama with short staff and one staff person seemed to bad-mouth the restaurant and then walk out (maybe was fired?) It was confusing but they still gave us a good dinner even if it took awhile. There are weekend specials and we tried the pot roast and all-you-can-eat fish fry (which is just frozen patties, just keep in mind so you're not surprised, haha) but they are good and sometimes you just want comfort dining food. Got some pie and ice cream for dessert and that was a win. We might not return for dinner but love their breakfasts and hope to see them up and running with full staff again soon.

Steak and eggs, red potatoes, biscuit
Andrea H.

I've had breakfast here almost every morning during my trip and lunch here once. The food is delicious and the portions are large. Even the ones marked as "little less" are still quite large. My spouse and I started ordering just one breakfast to share and it's plenty of food. Thier biscuits are the largest I've ever seen! I'd recommend the steak and eggs, the chicken fried steak and eggs, and of the sausage or bacon and eggs, or the bear's choice with pancakes. My spouse tells me the chicken and waffles was good too. Don't get grits, they are the one thing to avoid as they are watery. Join the club that there's a QR code for at thr tabke and they'll email you a code for a free breakfast. (The email takes a while to arrive so plan to use that on a second visit.) The service is friendly and efficient. It's a chain of restaurants and I hope to visit somr of thr others.

Awesome food and Gracen was awesome! Such a nice server. Good coffee too. So here is what was left of the meat lovers omelette.

Avocado Toast (550 cals.)

It's Black Bear. Some things are better than others. We have one very close so go frequently for breakfast. We enjoy their breakfasts far more than the other meals. But we're southern so maybe their take on lunch and dinner is just different than we're used to. The portion sizes and decadent calories are available of course but they also have decent healthy options with calories right on the menu.

Turkey Pesto (1200 cals.)
Nycole R.

I was craving comfort food and had visited another Black Bear Diner recently that was very good. So I thought this would be a safe bet. Not so. Service was less than stellar-our server was uninterested and mostly absent and the food was just mediocre. We were there on a Friday around 4:30, not prime time. But we felt like the staff were more annoyed at our visit than happy to have us. My pot roast had an odd flavor. I couldn't figure it out, but it was definitely different than I had experienced at another location. It came with a microwaved corn bread muffin. Odd pairing. My wife's French fries were cold. I think I'll stick with South Jordan next time.

Chorizo Breakfast Burrito (1360-1410 cals.)
Sana J.

I had a good overall experience and would go back! The breakfast was delicious. I ordered the two egg combo with the corned beef hash which wasn't greasy at all like it can be. I do not recommend the iced cold brew. It had a very bitter taste. The orange juice is really delicious! It is freshly squeezed. The chorizo breakfast burrito was also very good!

I can sum this review up in five words: THE best country fried steak…read more As a breakfast food lover, I can honestly say this is the best CFS I've had. Crunchy on the outside but tender on the inside. You can tell this chopped steak isn't frozen. Add that to a great diner run by great people, and it's a great visit overall. I highly recommend it.

The Food: Me and my 30 friends (We're a dinner group) set out each week to try new places, and…read moresocialize. So I think in talking to most of my friends I got a good view on the food, and presentation. I had a starter of Totchos, and the Beef Dipper for my entrée. Both were excellent, I shared my Totchos. These are tater tot nachos, they were excellent, normally I don't like cheese sauce on Nachos, but given the consistency and flavor of this sauce (house made, I'm guessing. Not canned) They were excellent. The Beef Dipper and Au Jus, also top notch! Generally in a French dip, there is a lot of fatty pieces, this was not that. Also at my table was the Chile Verde bowl, this one has a kick... but my friend having it really enjoyed it. The fish and chips was great, smelled fresh. Lets talk about the sides. Choice of Fries (appeared to be battered fries, always a favorite of mine.) Tots, or house made potato chips. I had the Potato Chips with mine, these were excellent, crisp and tender on the inside. The Athena (Lamb Burger) got rave reviews from one at the table The Service: Because we were in a large group they advised us they were going to be taking our orders as we came in so not to overwhelm the kitchen staff. Excellent communication throughout service given that we were a large group. I talked to one of the Owners, Laurie, I could tell she had a huge sense of pride in the place. Very friendly! The Restaurant: Great atmosphere, Fun artwork, best of all, VERY Clean, nothing sticky or no grease buildup on any surface. The glass ware on the wall behind the bar as all polished. In the bar area they stack their silver, tableware, condiments etc. in a cute little cozy box on the table, with the main dining area setup as a diner with the traditional paper napkin and silverware. For a diner motif to have shined silver and glassware is a nice touch! Summary: Eat here! The prices are reasonable, the food is excellent, when I looked at the menu online I was a little put off by no actual entrée's on the dinner menu, however the in house experience made up for that, it's a pub food vibe and they are doing it well!

I think the two servers we had were Mason and Chris. They were wonderful and never interrupted our convos or rushed us. Had very good attitudes ! We ordered a couple appetizers: the spinach dip with half chips half bread, avocad-oh, and the crab cake. I loved the creaminess of the spinach dip, and the fan favorite at the table was the crab cake , it was a nice size to share with 4 people! I got my go to favorite which is the blackberry and goat cheese ball salad!! Those goat cheese balls are TO DIE FOR!! I am so obsessed!!! I shared that with my mom and added grilled chicken , it never disappoints and fills me up just right. The men ordered the ribeye and the filet minion.

I went in with high expectations, thinking it would be a great spot to enjoy a meal with friends and family. However, I can't help but feel a bit surprised by my experience.

The food was average at best, the service was subpar, and the atmosphere didn't quite live up to the hype.

#Justice4Karl I…read morewasn't going to leave a review on this place until I saw a Google Review shitting on the server Karl. Karl is one of the reasons me and my family have come back to Root'd because of the connection he has made with my children and the genuinely kind soul he is. While I can't speak for others, Karl has always provided us with an amazing serving experience and has really made us feel at home at Root'd, while the food is great, his service is what has always stood out to me here. Before other people go judging him on one shitty night he had they should realize that he is just trying his best and one bad night does not define Karl, because I have seen so much more out of him. Imagine if you judged everyone based on one night off their life? Doesn't seem very fair, does it. I have gone to Root'd long enough to know the consistency and value that Karl brings to this company, and I hope everyone else can realize that too. I love this place, the food, and the service, and genuinely just want to see the best for it. So, say it with me now, #Justice4Karl

For a unique vegetarian option I have swapped the meat on the reuben for tempeh for a very delicious sandwich. Dog friendly patio but can get a little too much sun depending on the table.
