I know 2 locations of the Black Bear Dinner (Los Angeles). This is my first time at Oakley. Today, too many people, the wait could take up to 50 minutes (it's something reasonable being a father's day). Good attention, I can't complain. Only one thing, I don't know whose mistake, cooking or waiter, but our food was served very, very late, more than 1 hour waiting. 2 tables They came much more after us, and they were served first (and I'm talking about tables of up to more than 7 people. ) That's my only claim. for everything else excellent,

I love coming here. The food is great, nice quiet atmosphere. FRIENDLY STAFF, food comes out quick. It's clean, smells fresh. Salads are amazing. Hot sausage patties are made in house, and they are top tier. Highly recommend for the family.

Great breakfast, cozy atmosphere and good service. We enjoyed the Eggs Benedict and The Grizz; everything was delicious. The pancakes were sweet and fluffy.

We had cheeseburgers and my aunt loved it - she said it tasted homemade. I didn’t find that it tasted homemade because it was not juicy- a little dry- but it was edible and satisfied my hunger. I am from the south so maybe my tastebuds need a little extra to meet the standard - we do love our spices We ordered to go so I didn’t rate atmosphere but the parking lot was clean and had more than adequate parking spaces
