Stopped in for a pre Mother's Day Dinner. 6pm reservation; glad we made reservations. By 7:30 the place was packed! Hostess and server were very courteous, friendly, and helpful. Food was amazing! Generous servings, food cooked to perfection. We ordered the calamari appetizer, vegetable lasagne, and clam chowder. DELISH AND WAY MORE FOOD THAN WE COULD EAT. Bring an appetite! read more

Do not come with a family or group larger than 5. We came with two families wanting to eat at a nice steak restaurant. 9 total people and the hostess repeatedly told us only 4 people can be at any booth or table. They wouldn't allow our small children to sit at a table with us. She was not willing to solve a problem and was very stern that we couldn't eat there with 9. Only two other tables in the entire restaurant were seated so it was practically empty. Do NOT EAT HERE read more

This isn't just bad hospitality--it's a textbook example of discrimination dressed up as "policy." Upon entering, guests are greeted with a notice emphasizing "consideration." However, based on how my family was treated yesterday, it is evident that this policy is not about consideration, but exclusion. Before our food had even arrived, both the hostess and waitress singled us out in an otherwise nearly empty restaurant to enforce their "strict policy," warning that our toddlers would need to be taken outside--in the cold. From that moment forward, we no longer felt like guests, but rather as though we were under surveillance. Every small sound our children made seemed to be treated as a violation, creating unnecessary anxiety at the table. I calmly explained that my three-year-old daughter is autistic and was attempting to self-regulate. She was not disruptive, loud, or running around--she was simply existing. Expecting any toddler, neurotypical or not, to remain in near silence is unrealistic. Yet instead of being met with understanding, we were met with judgment. My husband and I are well acquainted with social etiquette and fine dining, and we frequently dine out with our children at a wide range of establishments. We have never encountered an experience as unpleasant as this. What makes the situation even more troubling is the evident arrogance--particularly from an establishment that presents itself as more refined than it truly is. The level of disdain shown toward paying customers was entirely unwarranted. We paid, requested our food to go, and left without causing a scene--but the feeling lingered. Not just anger, but a deep sense of disappointment--the kind that comes from recognizing how little empathy and emotional intelligence still exist in spaces that claim to serve the community. I've never had to walk out of a restaurant like that before. I'm sharing this now so that other families know what they're walking into. read more

Peppercorn Grille - Seafood Near Me - Big Bear Lake, California

If you're looking for "fine dining" in Big Bear, try the Peppercorn Grille. Some may say the food is overpriced, but it is delicious, quality, and offers great service. Highly recommend their Signature Clam Chowder $12, Bacon Wrapped Medjool Dates $22, Shrimp and Scallop Pasta ($45), and their housemade Creme Brulee ($15). Over the years, this restaurant has become quite busy so reservations are definitely recommended. They also have their own parking lot, which is a plus, albeit not very large. Lastly, they offer a lunch menu from 11am to 2:30pm. You can view all their menus on their website. Definitely stop by the Peppercorn Grille for your next special occasion to celebrate. read more

My friend and I stopped here at Peppercorn Grille for lunch on a weekend and were seated right away. We ordered 2 ahi sandwiches and 2 lunch burgers. Everyone enjoyed their dish! The food was delicious and flavorful, though I think some items can be a bit pricey, $30.99 for a burger is on the higher side, but the taste definitely made up for it. The restaurant has a warm and inviting atmosphere, and the service was attentive and friendly. Overall, a great spot for a tasty meal . read more

Peppercorn Grille is truly one of those must-visit dining experiences when you're in Big Bear Lake Village. My husband Ray and I had dinner here during our stay, and it was such a memorable evening from start to finish. This is not a rushed, in-and-out kind of place -- it's intimate, quiet, and meant to be enjoyed slowly. You come here to relax, connect, and savor every bite. Ray ordered the Chinese Chicken Salad and absolutely loved it. The candied almonds were such a special touch, and the dressing was phenomenal -- perfectly balanced and full of flavor. I had the Cappellini Pomodoro, and wow... the Roma tomato sauce was incredibly fresh and delicious. Everything was so light and beautifully put together. Even when I was getting full, I still wanted to keep eating because it was just that good. The Parmesan and overall balance made it feel indulgent without being heavy. Our server, Tyler, was outstanding. He was knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely cared about our experience. I couldn't decide between a side salad or the soup of the day, and he recommended their onion soup -- not your typical onion soup at all, but a unique recipe I've never tasted before, and it was fantastic. Such a great recommendation. Servers like Tyler make all the difference. When someone treats a restaurant like it's their own, you feel it -- and it's why customers want to come back. Five stars all the way. Peppercorn Grille is absolutely a place we look forward to visiting every time we're in Big Bear. read more

Our friends and I wanted to get a steak dinner and went to this restaurant. We had 9 altogether with kids. She first said we'd have to sit outside. The restaurant was pretty empty. We asked if we could be split up 4 & 5. She said there's no way we can do more than 4 at a table. We said even though they are kids? They're small and can fit 3 to a booth seat. She blankly stared at us and said she can't do more than 4 at a table. It was very clear that they didn't want us to eat here with our children. I hope the owner knows that the hostess is turning away parties of 9 that would have ordered steaks & cocktails and appetizers. Kids are allowed to be in public just like the rest of us humans. Just saying!! If you are a young family - don't even bother with this restaurant!! read more

Peppercorn Grille is the best restaurant in Big Bear. Their new takes on some of their classic Italian dishes will have you enjoying every bite until there's no leftovers. The staff is also amazing and attentive. Also, Daniel wasn't even our server, but made sure we were taken care of. read more

Pleasant Surprise in Big Bear! Classiest spot we could find. The pastas taste really authentic with depth to the sauce. The Spinach Ricotta Ravioli was delicious with fresh cheese filling & a creamy tomato sauce. The Beef Stroganoff was surprisingly tasty for a mushroom pasta. There was great service & food but for the price point, they should bring out better bread & butter. The thick slabs of white bread were not good. read more

Greeted pleasantly, was able to move up our 3pm reservation to 1:30pm. Very nice seating, outside, beautiful day in Big Bear. Kristen F took great care of the 4 of us, the food across the table was excellent! Great shrimp and scallops, Ravioli with spinach, New England clam chowder and artichoke soups were some of best ever. All the staff we interacted with were wonderful. The owner, Julie, recognized our military service, Vietnam veteran me, Marine Corps active duty son-in-law with our wives. Thank you! Great experience! read more

While shopping around the Big Bear Village area, we decided to stop by for lunch at Peppercorn Grille. Overall, I'd rate our experience 3.5 stars. The pros are: - a private parking lot you can park in if you dine with them. A big plus given how difficult it is to find parking in the area. - friendly host and server - complimentary bread basket - food was fresh, hot, and tasty. We really liked the warm artichoke dip with bread The cons are: - it's pretty dark inside even in the daytime - service was very slow...it's a small restaurant but it took 15 mins for our server to take our order, another 30 minutes for our food to come out, and the complimentary bread basket came out after our food. - pricey food at $20-30 for lunch options and soft drinks at $5 plus an additional cost for refills. - no kids menu so the kids had to order full adult portions and pay full prices read more

Great service! Highly recommended to make a reservation as they may not take walk ins. Had the lobster ravioli and it was good but very rich and heavy. Good sized portions. The crab cake appetizer was delicious and fresh. Great date night spot. Pricey but still recommend. read more

If I could give 0 stars to this business I would! I had a very disappointing experience at this business due to extremely poor customer service and what felt like discriminatory treatment. From the moment I approached the door, I was treated with a lack of respect and professionalism that made me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. Staff members were dismissive, unhelpful, and noticeably did not want myself and my family to enter the restaurant. When I tried to enter the restaurant, my family and I were dismissed almost immediately upon entering and told that they didn't have a dinner menu for us. I felt singled out in a way that was both frustrating and disheartening. No customer should feel judged or treated unfairly in any environment, especially one that is supposed to be welcoming to everyone. I believe businesses should be held accountable for how they treat people, and unfortunately, this experience did not meet even basic standards of respect and inclusivity. I hope management takes this seriously and works toward better training and awareness so future customers don't have to go through the same experience. Everyone should be welcomed no matter their race! Please do better! read more

We loved it the first time we went! We dined in that time. We went back up to Big Bear and wanted to grab soup to go for dinner. $26 for not even a full cup is insane!!! It's not that good! We were so disappointed. I seriously wanted a refund. We won't be back!!! read more

Peppercorn restaurant does not get the reviews it deserves. My wife and I ate there and the food and service was amazing. The Flat Iron steak was terrific and the beef stroganoff my wife got was spectacular. Our drinks never went empty and we did not wait a long time between courses. It was worth the price for sure. This will be a spot to return to on our next trip to Big Bear. read more

This was easily one of the best dining experiences we've had in Big Bear. The restaurant has a warm, inviting atmosphere and a charming patio where we were able to dine comfortably with our dogs. We started with the bruschetta and the calamari steak served with a zesty lemon aioli--both dishes were generously portioned and full of flavor. Two members of our group are vegan, and the staff was happy to accommodate them with a delicious capellini pomodoro, served without cheese. I shared the flatiron steak, which was crusted with peppercorn and topped with a rich peppercorn cognac cream sauce--absolutely mouthwatering. If you're visiting Big Bear, this place should definitely be on your list. read more

Employees are very humbled people . Very nice and attentive. Our server told us the owner is a bit strict on the employees. That's the reason for my 3 star . I can appreciate a business when their employees are taken care of . I could be wrong but I was told otherwise . Ambiance is beautiful . Dim lights excellent for dates but keep in mind you'll spend more than 100 for a party of 2 . read more

Disappointing this time. I hope this place is not headed downhill. As part time locals my wife and I have been coming here for years. We have celebrated numerous holidays here and had made a tradition out of spending Valentines Day at the restaurant. We even came here after our wedding, on our way out of the country for our honeymoon. When we bought our local lodge from my wife's family years ago our bar had a few wine glasses from the restaurant that were tied to old memories and high praises for Peppercorn Grill. We have always loved this place and frequently bring our out of town guests over. Needless to say, the experience yesterday started off on the wrong foot from the onset. Two, flustered and moody hostesses were greeting on comers with a frown and the phrase "can I help you". To put it into context, "what do you want" would have felt just as uninviting. After check in there was a struggle and some tension to confirm booth seating - which was both requested far in advance and never a problem in the past. There was a manager floating around (who I have never seen before) who was attentive but unfortunately also short and disingenuous. The waiters here on the other hand are always amazing, friendly and welcoming. These are faces we have become familiar with and a reason to come back. To put it plainly, we come here for the service. We spent $400 on dinner for two and we do so for ambience and service. Thats why we dine out. We have a wine cellar at home and plenty of experience cooking, we have no other reason to take a 3 hour trip to our home in Big Bear, only to come to the Village and leave a date night disappointed - especially on a holiday. I hope that in the future, this one poor experience can be forgotten and replaced by better ones. read more

You ever had that coworker who acts busy but really isn't just so that the rest of the team has to pick up his slack? If we got Zack as our server it would've been 4 stars, SMH... but we got Tyler. We wanted patio seating so our friendly hostess asked if we were willing to wait a few for them to clear the table for us, and we happily obliged, asking her for a glass of water for me while waiting in the front entrance area, which she brought. Once seated, I brought my empty glass and Tyler brought a full glass for my bf, but nothing for me. If he even looked at the empty glass he should have either: 1) replaced my glass with a full one and taken the empty one away or 2) fill my empty one. This isn't rocket science. At no point during any part of the meal did he do that, despite us requesting several times. He didn't come by to ask us about our meal. He didn't take our plates - other staff did. At the start of our visit we ordered drinks first. Bf ordered the mule, which he enjoyed and I asked for more water. Tyler brought out the mule before taking our order... without my water, nor after I asked again. So yeah, Tyler gets no star, the food gets 3 stars, and Zack--wherever you are--you're the unsung hero of this establishment. Shout out to the other staff who finally took pity on me and filled my glass before I started hallucinating. The nice Latina lady handling the water pitcher asked me about my meal. Hell, they should give Tyler the water pitcher and her the server position. Tyler was nowhere to be seen until end of the meal to ask if we wanted dessert, got the check and nonchalantly threw in a question in passing on how it went when it really was a moot point by then because the meal was already over. Tyler didn't tell us the specials (didn't know they had any until we overheard Zack toward the end of our meal tell the next table). Meanwhile, Zack--serving the table next to us--was out here running the server Olympics. He made conversation with them like they were long-lost cousins, dropped off waters with lemon slices, asked next table if they wanted parmesan on their pasta/salad (Tyler didn't--he just seems to think pepper is the only condiment or too lazy to carry more than pepper--who puts pepper on salad or lobster ravioli?) Zack basically turned their whole meal into a delightful experience. Food? Good. I ordered clam chowder and my honey ordered lobster ravioli and house salad with a balsamic vinaigrette. My clam chowder was on the salty side, and bf agreed, but nothing to the extent of being unpalatable. The lobster ravioli was pretty darn good. The bread it came with was hard as a rock. I had read another review from some restaurant awhile back where someone complained the bread cut the roof of their mouth and thought wow, what a Karen - how can you eat a bread so hard it cuts your mouth? Well, I didn't know it did that to me eating this bread until the next day when I was eating and realized the skin on the roof of my mouth was cut from this bread. Guess you don't realize it in the moment, so be forewarned you better soak that bread or something, lol. Salad was salad. Tyler brought out the salad and clam chowder first, automatically placing the salad in front of me without a word. Word? We swapped plates after he left. He just doesn't do well with communication overall. He's too busy doing who knows what, it certainly wasn't serving other tables. For dessert we ordered the Apple tart, warm out of the oven paired with ice cream with a nicely cut strawberry we enjoyed to finish our meal. Atmosphere? Nice. We got patio seating on a beautiful Labor Day weekend. Service? Depends on who you get. If you're lucky enough to land Zack, congratulations--you win. If you get Tyler... pack a water bottle. Next to Zack's performance, Tyler looked like an understudy who forgot his lines. Would I come back? Sure. But next time, I'm asking for Zack by name. read more

I agree with a previous reviewer. From the moment we arrived, the host greeted us with a dismissive "can I help you?" delivered in a condescending tone rather than a welcoming one. I ordered the Roasted Five Spice Pork Tenderloin, which was completely misrepresented. The dish was neither roasted nor did it have any noticeable five-spice flavor. As a chef, I am very familiar with this preparation, and it did not resemble what was described on the menu. More concerning, my husband ordered the Shrimp and Scallop Pasta and became ill shortly after eating. He experienced severe gastrointestinal distress and spent the remainder of our time in the restroom. He had not eaten anything prior to dining here, so we are confident the illness was caused by this dish. To make matters worse, a server who was not assigned to our table abruptly dropped the bill on our table without saying a word. The interaction felt cold and demeaning, as if we were being rushed out or judged. Even our assigned server asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?" in a condescending manner that reinforced the feeling we were not welcome. We were dressed appropriately and behaved respectfully, yet both this incident and our interactions with staff gave us an uncomfortable, low-key discriminatory feeling that was hard to ignore. read more

Wow, I did not expect big bear to have some JUICY lobster.. And the service.. 10/10. Me and my partner just finished a snowboarding session and we definitely did not look presentable, but they were very nice and welcoming people and even assured us that our outfit was okay while treating us the same as everyone else. It's a very cozy restaurant and the setup is very aesthetic, you can also look outside the window and people watch haha. Would definitely go here again if I am ever starving after snowboarding! read more

Absolutely amazing drinks, food and service! We dined in yesterday for a few drinks and dinner, and were lucky enough to have Kristen as our server. She was extremely friendly, happy to answer questions about the menu and attentive during our time there. We took our food home to go, and it was absolutely delicious! The best part of the meal was the mushroom and steak soup-shout out to the chef on this one! We will definitely be looking up a recipe, so we can cook this at home! Thank you again, Kristen for your amazing service, and thank you to the Peppercorn Grille for having us. We will definitely be back the next time we come up the mountain for another staycation! read more

Was planning to come here for lunch and parked in the lot while standing outside with friends deciding our plans. A waitress came out and immediately yelled at me to move my car, saying the parking lot was for the restaurant only. The interaction was incredibly rude, snappy, and disrespectful. I tried to explain that we were actually planning to come inside, but she cut me off, walked away mid sentence, went back inside, and shut the door. To be clear, I have a valid disabled parking placard. Disabled parking spaces are protected under state vehicle code and the ADA. A business cannot deny or harass someone lawfully using an accessible parking space based on whether they are actively patronizing the business at that exact moment. Lost my business before I ever even made it inside. Completely unnecessary interaction and very poor customer service. read more

This place was good. The food we had tasted really good. Our host was super friendly and nice. Place was very clean and looked fancy.

Will definitely come back when we visit Big bear again. read more

NOT KID FRIENDLY. I came here for an anniversary a year or two back and had a nice time. Unfortunately this time around I was so turned off by the anti-child rhetoric I feel the need to leave this review. Mostly so other families can avoid this place. My husband, my daughter and myself arrived... My husband was outside with our daughter who was upset over falling down, so I went to check us in. There was a mix up with our reservation by 15 minutes (I thought it was for 4:45, but they had 4:30 down), so it looked like we were 15 minutes late. One of the hostesses was helpful and said they would fix it. Unfortunately they didn't have any highchairs, the two they had were in use. Despite me specifying our party of three was for two adults and a highchair when I booked the reservation... One of the hostesses (Maybe a manager, she was a middle aged brunette) tried to talk us out of dining at the restaurant... She pointed to my husband outside with my daughter who had just fallen and started lecturing me about how crying children are disruptive to everyone and pointed to an anti-kid sign that I'll post a picture of... My daughter is really sweet and well behaved. We take her out to eat quite a bit. I assured her she would be fine. They said it would be about 20 minutes for a highchair. Once our table was ready, we headed into the restaurant. A tall, younger, blonde hostess made us stop and read their anti-kid sign before they would let us sit down. It was WILD. We would have left, but it was a holiday and everywhere had a one or two hour wait. We proceeded to eat there and our daughter was PERFECT, as per usual. So much so that our waitress commented on how well behaved she was. That was really satisfying... It was like our daughter knew what dicks they were being and wanted to rub it in their faces. The food was bland and undercooked. I had to salt everything excessively to give it flavor. Our waitress was nice, that's the only reason I'm giving two stars. If they really feel the need to leave the sign up I would leave it at that... Don't try to turn patrons away with children, lecture them on how their kids could be disruptive or force them to read signs. If someone has kids that are disruptive and aren't properly parenting then maybe that would be the right time to make someone read the sign and lecture them. The way they did it was incredibly awkward and inappropriate. Kids are people, they deserve to exist. I noted they're dog friendly, yet nowhere was there a sign about how dogs and their owners should behave... Backwards thinking when a huge percentage of their paying customers are families with children. read more

We live part-time in BBL and have dined at Peppercorn many and it was our go-to restaurant many times until 5/9/26 when we went for a special dinner occasion and were very disappointed.

Came to visit out of town. Decided to pick here to eat. Prices are over priced. We ordered one pasta and salad with 2 drinks for $70. The meat was over cooked and noddles cold and plain. I offered to just pay for my drinks and salad that I ate since I was waiting over an hour for my food and didn't want it any more. Leticia came to my table and said she can't take it off my order and was not understanding the problem. she then had to call someone and took everything off the recipt when we were still supposed to pay for our 2 drinks and Salad. I had to remind her that I owe her money. if I did not i would of walked out paying nothing. not sure if the workers here know how to do there job when customers are always right and she was training. Shes training another employee to deny customers needs and request. overall bad customer service and over priced food. read more

Peppercorn Grille - 100% manager comps - Seafood Near Me - Big Bear Lake, California

This restaurant is very nice, clean, and has a fancy feel despite being a smaller place. The food was very good--fresh, flavorful, and served beautifully. The staff was friendly and welcoming from the moment we walked in. Our server was okay overall; we had a good experience, but she did disappear for a bit and didn't come back to refill our drinks. Not terrible, just something that could be improved. My only real suggestion would be to upgrade the iced tea and strawberry lemonade. They tasted more like powder mixes rather than natural or fresh options, which didn't really match the quality of the food or the vibe of the restaurant. Parking is small, but manageable. Overall, we still really enjoyed our visit and would definitely return. The place is pretty, clean, and the food is amazing--so it's a solid five stars from us. read more

Really good meal for me on my birthday. It was a super packed weekend up in Big Bear and I was so happy that we had reservations. We were promptly seated and ready to start our meal. We started out with the steamed artichoke with aioli and it was a great appetizer. Highly recommend if they have it! My daughter ordered the maui crab cakes for her meal which were OK. A lot of breading (I know it said they were macadamia nut crusted) and I just wasn't a fan of the amount of bell peppers (and I'm a bell pepper fan). The salsa was a great addition though. My son went with the shrimp and scallop pasta. This was an amazing dish. There was so much flavor and the sauce paired perfectly with the seafood which was cooked perfectly. Man this was a highlight of our meal. I ended up going with the rack of lamb which was perfectly cooked (has to be medium rare). Only item I didn't like was the Honey Dijon Glaze sauce. Did not felt it worked well with the lamb. A little too sweet. My wife ended up getting the Peppercorn crusted flank steak. This was also cooked to her liking and was a great dish. Last but not least, we got the Warm Lava Cake for the birthday and a couple of 20-year old Tawny Ports! So much food we had to take home some leftovers. read more

Made a reservation to celebrate my mother's birthday here. We arrived a few minutes early and were told there was a family at our table and we would need to wait. Sure, no problem, we're early... We waited over an hour past our reservation time and WERE NEVER SEATED! We ended up having to leave and go somewhere else. We received no apology. Later, I called and asked to speak with the manager and explained our situation. He was confused as to why they made our reservation because apparently our party was larger than what they normally accommodate (we had 5 people) He offered for us to drive back and he could seat us then... this was now over 2 hours past our reservation time. It was so disappointing. read more

We placed this restaurant on our to-do list from the start of our Big Bear planning! We went our first night and the wait was 1.45 so we decided to make a reservation for the next night which was our actual anniversary. It was great. We arrived early so it wasn't super crowded and we had excellent service from Leticia. Food was great! The only reason I took 1 star away was the bread. We thought some kind of crusty French bread would be better with oil and vinegar instead of white bread. The ambiance was excellent for an anniversary dinner, the flowers and candles were a nice touch and everyone we came in contact with was great! read more

Food not good. Just ordered one order of salmon which cost me almost $60, the fish was so DRY and TASTELESS. I always eat my fish medium rare and I didn't think I should give special instructions for the fish since I was paying $60 for it, I thought the chef knew better. The Clam chowder soup comes directly from the one dollar Campbell's can soup, that's ridiculous. ‍ Go somewhere else if you want to have a decent meal. read more

The burgers and sandwiches are about $22-25. The burger was nice and juicy, sandwich a little dry but ok. Sides are ok, potato wedges are crispy. Chicken caesar salad comes with a rain of parmesan, like how you get from olive garden. It's alright. Food are all about average but presented nicely. Lemonade iced tea (aka arnold palmer) is nice and refreshing. Best thing is you get free refill. On a hot day, yes! We chose patio seating since we brought our dog. They don't have dog menu but brought water bowl for him. We got him chicken breast unseasoned. $10 The staffs were so nice but there were so many flies. They brought out the rotating thingy that kept the flies away when for a while, but they were pretty resilient when the food arrived. They sat & walked on the food and refused to be shooed.

We were up in Big Bear for my birthday weekend, and my friend had booked dinner at this place since she said this was the "fanciest" place in Big Bear. It was Friday night, and I was glad my friend made the rsvp because the place was full. We ordered artichoke spinach dip to start: this was really good. The ciabatta toasts that came were also soo good. For the main dish, I ordered 8 oz filet mignon with salad. My husband ordered chicken marsala. My friend ordered chicken lasagna and halibut. We were all pretty happy with our dish. The side dishes portion was pretty big, too. My husband picked clam chowder for his side dish and it came in the big and it was very tasty. The food came out timely and our server was lovely. I enjoyed my birthday dinner there. If you want to have a bit more "fancy" dinner in this area, this is a good place to check it out. read more
