Black Bear Diner Las Vegas - S. Las Vegas Blvd

We were fresh off the plane arriving in Las Vegas and were almost near "hangry" level when we arrived to this Black Bear Diner location. The host was just okay, she could've been more welcoming and friendly, especially since this was our first time there, but I digress. We were seated promptly and Elva came very soon after, introduced herself and took our drink orders. She turned the experience around quickly. She was personable, friendly and very knowledgeable about the menu offerings. We bombarded her with questions and she took it all in stride with great patience. Offering excellent suggestions based on the information we gave her about our preferences. My husband ordered the New York Steak and Eggs (fruit/wheat toast) and I ordered the Original Scrambowl (homemade biscuit/sausage gravy on the side) with all bacon. They cook everything fresh to order and it was definitely worth waiting for. My husband's steak was prepared just the way he likes and it included three eggs which was music to his "protein loving" ears. My food was equally as delightful. I enjoyed the spiciness and ooey gooey goodness of the cheese in the Scrambowl. The only thing I'd modify next time is add avocado and maybe try it with extra crispy hash browns for a different texture experience instead of the country red potatoes. We also ordered fresh orange juice which was good. Overall, I thought we received great value for our money. The portions of everything were pretty large to huge. Elva came to check on us frequently and was very attentive. The menu has plenty of offerings and they serve breakfast all day - which if you like breakfast for dinner, like me - then why not?!? Come and check this place out. There's plenty of seating options and they turn the tables quickly, so I can't imagine there's many times were customers wait long to dine. They also have outdoor seating options for your dining pleasure. Be sure to ask for Elva, take care of her and tell her "hello" from us. Until next time and you're welcome!

Waiter was super friendly. Food was good. Coffee cup never went less than half. Loved that . The waiter also brought out a bowl of our choice of coffee creamer, which was really nice touch

First time here and it definitely won’t be the last. The vibe is cozy and kinda nostalgic with all the bear carvings and wood benches—feels like a cabin-style diner that actually cares about its food. I got the steak and eggs—steak was juicy, eggs cooked just how I like ’em, and the potatoes were golden and crispy. Simple, no nonsense, and it hit the spot. Also tried the French toast—fluffy, buttery, just the right amount of sweetness. Syrup on the side in two little cups made it perfect for dipping or drowning, whatever you’re into. The waffle with strawberries and whipped cream was straight-up dessert for breakfast. Crunchy outside, soft inside, loaded with fresh fruit and cream. Can’t go wrong. Coffee was hot, strong, and came in one of those classic diner mugs. Just what you want to wash everything down. Service was friendly, fast, and on point. If you’re hungry and want something hearty without the fluff, this is the place. Definitely recommend it.

We visited Black Bear Diner on Las Vegas Blvd several times for both breakfast and dinner, and it quickly became one of our favorite spots in the area. The service was consistently outstanding—every staff member we interacted with was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The food was delicious every single time. Breakfast portions were generous, freshly prepared, and full of flavor, while the dinner options were hearty and perfectly cooked. You can really tell that the diner takes pride in what they serve. Whether you’re starting your day or looking for a comforting meal in the evening, this place is absolutely worth a visit. Highly recommended!
