I was happy to find out that this place just got bought out by a sweet lady named Amy. The old owner guy was such a grump.As usual my wife loved the Mexicali Scramble. The country fried steak itself was good but the gravy is a powder pack with a lot of pepper in it. I'd probably go back to the Benedict next time. We always love getting on giant pancake on the side.The coffee was better today.

Saturday morning. Two restaurants on Main Street had long waits. Rode my bike around the corner and saw BlackBoard. There was no wait. Cute outside and typical diner style indoors. I was greeted by the owner Any and served by Sam. Amy came over later and introduced herself as the new owner. Both were very friendly.Food tasted fresh and was prepared well. Price was typical for the area. Will visit again when in the area

Very cute place with hit and miss service.When you hire young student employees, you're going to have fluctuating service. Owner had to point out to the hostess we were waiting to be seated. Another young woman took our drink order, didn't offer straws. But we definitely cut those staff some slack because this is likely their first job and will only get better with experience. No waiting to get seated so that's good.The waiter was great, super efficient and anticipating refills of iced tea and coffee. Biscuits and gravy $14 - gravy was a bit too peppery but good value, comes with bacon and sausage plus eggs and hashbrowns. Should have asked for "cheese on that" (Thanks Tom Papa)California Benedict $16 - comes with bacon, avocado, tomato, side of hashbrowns. Next time I'll ask for extra crispy but they were still good.Here's the weird thing, big sign outside and website advertising breakfast and lunch, hours are 7:30am-2pm. We overheard them telling someone a bit after 1pm, we don't serve breakfast after 1pm. (???) Nowhere on the menu does it say there are special hours for breakfast or a deadline. This is obviously due to them wanting to clean up the breakfast station early to get out of there earlier? With a menu that's only breakfast and lunch, just serve breakfast the whole time, what's the deal?

Breakfast is delicious, and the service is excellent. It's always nice to enjoy both great food and outstanding service when dining out. Everything we've had so far has been great. From the food to the service, and the hospitality has been warm and welcoming.

My wife and I stopped in on opening Thursday morning after spending our earlier hours at Hoag Hospital. Our waitress was very attentive offering coffee multiple times, our coffee mugs were never empty. My wife decided on a short stack of blueberry pancakes and I their Breakfast Burrito. Our meals arrive relatively quickly and were super delicious! The pancakes were huge, thick, and fluffy filled with blueberries and my burrito was stuffed full of breakfast deliciousness. Top notch job! Thank you!

Great service, good food, and small quaint restaurant. Quick service with friendly staff and unlimited hot coffee. I ordered Mediterranean omelette with fruit. Will definitely recommend and be back!

What a delightful neighborhood bistro. Fantastic food, indoor and outdoor seating with a very at home feeling. The service was on point and the owner is the sweetest. Check this place out!

This review is long overdue. On a sad morning for our family in early Sept., we said farewell to our 98 year old mom. Relatives from 4 states arrived a few weeks later for mom's funeral. The day after (very last minute and not knowing who else in our extended family might wish to join us), I tried to figure out where to go that could possibly accommodate a large group for brunch. I called BB, explained that we weren't sure of the exact # and received a warm welcome over the phone. I ended up calling back 2-3 more times, adding to the # of guests each time. I think we started with 12 and ended up with 24!!! The entire experience at BB, from start to finish, was exceptional. Food was yummy, service amazing, everyone got served, with orders cheerfully taken each time new family members arrived. We weren't rushed to leave and the other guests on the patio were kind (could have complained as we were a bit noisy and made some commotion rearranging furniture as more family arrived). BB has been a favorite of mine for years, but this experience solidified my opinion that it's a gem of a place and deserves a far higher overall rating than it currently has. I love the Mediterranean omelet and the allowances made for substitutions and additions. My husband loves the skillets and the omelets. BB's new owner is the one who was so gracious and flexible with our big family on a Friday morning back in September 2024. We are grateful.
