    Signature dessert
    Sharin F.

    Not the best experience. Can't say I'm in a rush to get back. I was looking forward to coming here for a while and finally got the chance on Sunday for breakfast. This establishment is in Orting and we had been told it wasn't the safest or most welcoming place for black people. I can't say I got that impression from the service I received today even with the inconvenience we experienced. Long story short, we waited over an hour for the food to come out and it was a little underwhelming. Long story long, my family and I showed up at 12:05 for breakfast and they were busy. We waited less than 5 minutes to be seated and about 5 minutes to put in drink and food orders. We ordered a side of potatoes, 2 orders of the biscuits and gravy with eggs, the lemon blueberry French toast and the classic eggs Benedict. It was an hour before the server let us know our food would be out soon. Within that time, we were checked on twice for drink refills. We watched tables come in, eat and leave. 15 minutes after the server let us know our food was coming out soon, it still hadn't come and we were looking to pay and leave. She said it was coming right up and showed up about 5 minutes later. One plate of biscuits and gravy had an old dry crumbly crunchy biscuit and one fresh biscuit. The gravy was tasty and plentiful, but a little looser than expected. The lemon blueberry French toast was tasty and looked appetizing, but was not hot enough to melt the accompanying lemon butter. The eggs Benedict was flavorful, but the English muffins were soggy. The ham was good quality and the hollandaise sauce was tasty, but had developed a film. We asked for boxes as soon as it came out and noticed we didn't get everything we ordered. Our server comped our drinks and removed the side of potatoes we didn't get. She apologized for the wait and offered a dessert for the inconvenience. She was very kind and the only reason Tim's gets 3 stars instead of one. For cultural context, we were the only black people there. There was only one other person who wasn't Caucasian in the entire establishment and we saw no non-whites in the community on the way there. The service was a genuine concern coming in, but our server worked diligently to remedy the inconvenience. Our guess was they ran out of biscuits halfway through our order being prepared. So it probably sat for quite some time before it got to us once the new biscuits were done, instead of remaking it so it was all fresh. Just wish they would have told us or warned us instead of waiting for us to complain. If that was the case and we were made aware, we would have ordered different things way ahead of the 1 hour mark. We didn't leave until after 1:30 and were quite dissatisfied with the quality of the food. I would t recommend this place to anyone, but I wouldn't protest anyone trying it either. I most likely won't go back anytime soon and don't see myself visiting this establishment in different cities either.

    For breakfast my favorite is Their Arizona omelette with extra crispy, hashbrowns, and peppers and onions in it, as well as added extra diced ham inside the omelette is so good side of country gravy and for lunch or dinner the fried cod is extra crispy on the outside & tender & juicy on the inside w/side of tater tots, which as well as extra crispy is so good

    Nice place, good atmosphere. There's a little train that runs around the entire place which was neat. The service was good past the initial 10 minutes. We kinda got forgotten about in the beginning, we got a table a saw other groups who had arrived after us get their food orders taken before we got drinks. Food was ok. I got the meat lovers stacker, and though the potatoes were a bit undercooked it was pretty much what I wanted. The plate it came on was a little small, so I kept dropping bits off the side onto the table. Coffee was typical diner coffee, and my cup never went empty.

    Place was clean and the service was nice but the food was really off, no flavor and the corned beef tasted powdered/canned, the potatoes and eggs were very bland as well, we enjoyed the toast but that was about it

She made my drink incorrectly the first time, and when I asked for it to be remade, she either forgot or simply never made the replacement. Because of that experience, I left a 3-star review. I decided to come back today and give the place another chance, and I ended up with Shae as my bartender again. I ordered the exact same drink I always order. Once again, it was made incorrectly. I politely reminded her that I do not want olive juice in my martini. Instead of simply correcting it, she became visibly irritated, started giving me attitude, and was rude toward me. A few minutes later, she accused me of having an issue with her and told me that if that was going to be the case, I could leave. So I did. While I was in the parking lot getting on my motorcycle, two managers approached me and accused me of being rude, specifically bringing up the 3-star review I had left after my previous visit. Being confronted in the parking lot over an honest review was completely inappropriate and only reinforced my opinion of how this place handles customer service and criticism. Last time I gave them 3 stars. After this experience, it is 1 star. I will not be returning.

It's a really tiny little trailer, so I understand they're working with limited space, but having cars loop around in what feels like a figure-eight can be chaotic. People get impatient, start honking, and it's easy to accidentally cut someone off without realizing it. They're just burgers, people--everyone needs to relax a little! That said, despite how busy it was, the line moved surprisingly fast. I ordered a double cheeseburger with everything, a side of onion rings, and a black raspberry shake. The shake was fantastic--definitely a highlight of the meal. The burger was also really good: flavorful, fresh, and exactly what I was hoping for. The only disappointment was the onion rings. They were incredibly greasy--so much so that they actually upset my stomach. I'm not sure if that's typical, but I probably wouldn't order them again. Next time I'd give the fries a try instead. One thing that really stood out was the pricing. It's refreshing to find a place that still offers fair prices when it feels like everything else costs an arm and a leg these days. Overall, I'd definitely come back. The burger and shake were worth it, and as long as I skip the onion rings, I think it'll be a solid meal.

The service provided by Stephanie is excellent. She has a great guest service personality and she makes everyone feel welcome. We could go to other Black Bear locations, but it's because of Stephanie we return to the Puyallup location. If she were not here we would probably not return because she is by far the best server in the house. And trust me, we have most every other server in the place and they were no where near the quality of server Stephanie is. So go to this location, have a great meal of good food, sit in Stephanie's section and enjoy the experience. You will not regret it. If she's not there, then come back when she is and you won't regret it.

The first issue was the seating. Instead of putting our party at an area that had tables that could be moved together five of us were put at a booth meant for four people. The area with more capacity was by the door that leads to the outdoor dining, and was being used by other patrons, with more room available. A chair wa placed at the end of the table for the booth we were in. The legs for the table were such that I had to "tuck" my feet under the chair I was sitting on. This was very uncomfortable for someone who had seven knee surgeries. During the meal I had to place the plate with my biscuit onto my knee to get my coffee refilled, either that or the server would have needed to reach over me to refill it. The food was a bit of a disappointment for two of us. I had the chicken fried steak with country potatoes. My wife had eggs Benedict with loaded hash browns. My county potatoes were actually cool, not cold, not even warm, cool. What made them semi-warm was the gravy on top of them. My wife's potatoes appear to have been sitting around. They were more than crispy, being hard, and cold. The eggs for the eggs Benedict were almost completely hard cooked. The yolk was not at all runny, to blend in with the sauce. Her fruit cup had lots of water in it, and the melon was not as ripe as it should have been. She remarked later she should have gotten the biscuit. We did not complain to the server. Had we done so everyone else in our party would have finished their meals by the time our replacement would have arrived. Well over $100 spent for a disappointing experience. The first we can remember at a Black Bear Diner.
