After what felt like an eternity, I finally made my way back to this place, and I couldn’t be happier with my decision. This place has a warm charm that instantly welcomes you, and I was thrilled to find it just as delightful as I remembered. The lunch menu is a feast for the eyes, featuring an impressive array of specials that cater to every taste. Whether you're in the mood for something hearty or light, there's no shortage of options. I appreciate a place that takes pride in variety, and the many choices made it hard to select just one dish. Each option looked inviting, and I found myself wishing I could sample them all!!! Now, let’s talk about the dessert menu. It is, quite honestly, to die for. With an array of tempting treats, you must save some room for dessert. I was particularly drawn to the “Mother Load Cake,” Decadent, rich, and utterly indulgent. If you visit, do yourself a favor and don’t skip this sweet temptation—it might just steal the spotlight from your lunch! Sometimes you must venture back to the past to rediscover the joys you’ve missed. So, don’t forget about this place—it truly is a culinary treasure waiting to be explored again. Whether you’re looking for a fantastic lunch or a slice of heavenly cake, this spot should definitely be on your radar!

Huge portions! Prices are a bit higher but you’re getting what you pay for. We came in with a party of five at 7PM on a Saturday and had virtually little wait to be seated, we additionally saw other larger parties arrive without reservations and be seated as soon as the hostess arrived back to their station. The waiter was quick to take our orders and drink selections. The food came out from the kitchen quicker than you’d expect and The Wait staff was attentive to our table.

The food was as good as the drinks. Staying next door with family I had to try it. The first time I opted to just try nachos and a margarita, both of which were good and having an old fashioned for desert. A few days later I had grilled salmon with crab and added a lobster burblanc. The jasmine rice, veggies and asparagus were exactly what I needed in addition to another few old fashioneds. I repeated that order on my final night and was not disappointed. Although the bartender bright my a lobster tail instead of the added lobster burblanc. An error I couldn't be upset with as I wanted lobster. Also ordered Mac and cheese and cauliflower bites to take back for the niece and nephew, those were also good. Only gripe was then shutting the pizza oven down early.

Perhaps the worst restaurant in San Bernardino, as far as I know so far? 1st impression: no host, nobody seating us until I wandered to the kitchen area and got myself and my wife seated. 15-20 minutes to take order. (Waitress had only one other table, it was table of 8.) Menu confusing. Wife salmon deserves 2 sides, but my sea bass did not. These two items next to each other on menu, no apparent notation of what was the difference. Seared ahi tuna appetizer prepared yesterday? Not impressive although it was presented well. We did not get bread but noticed someone else got bread. Waitress said, ok, will put in oven for us, 5-minutes. Burned broccoli. Waiting for bread which will be after the meal. Good looking desserts, not going to try. Note: facebook page disabled messages.

We had a party of 11 and we were in town visiting and found this place and it turned out to be a good spot for dinner. We only had to wait about 5 minutes for our table to be setup. Kyle did an excellent job as our server and he made some great food recommendations and told us about Happy Hour. Kyle brought out fresh bread to get us started. We then had mozzarella sticks and southwest egg rolls which were good. I had the Atlantic Salmon ($28)with fries and onion rings and they were good. We also had wings which were good. The Mac and cheese was the only item that needs a little improvement. My wife and mother in law had the ribeye steak(($46). My wife said the steak was fine. The kids had the mini burgers with fries. The strawberry lemonade was also good. There is plenty of variety on the menu and the atmosphere is really nice. There is also a nice salad bar with many options. They have a nice selection of desserts also. Kyle checked on us often and made sure that our glasses were full. I highly recommend this place and hopefully Kyle will be your server.

It was our first visit to Claim Jumper and will be our last. Our server, Janessa, was sweet and wonderful. However, there was nothing special about the food. It all tasted like it was frozen and heated up. When we first sat down, there was a paper notice on the table offering a $10 off $30 Welcome Reward for signing up and enrolling in their rewards program. I have attached a photo below. I provided my name, birthday, phone number and email to sign up. There is no disclaimer indicating the $10 off $30 welcome reward cannot be applied to the first visit. This was not indicated on the paper on the table or in my account online. When we told the waitress that we signed up for the rewards program, she gladly took my phone number and said she would apply the $10 reward to our bill. After a few minutes, she said the reward was not showing up on my account and would go speak to a manager about it. She returned and stated the reward cannot be applied now. It has to be on our second visit. This is very frustrating given that there was no indication of this anywhere on the paper. I provided personal information (my name, birthday, phone number and email) in order to sign up for rewards, under the impression I would have $10 off my bill. I would not have done this knowing it could not be applied to this visit. Disclaimers need to be provided to customers when they are proving personal information into online systems. Shame on Claim Jumper for misleading customers into providing personal information when disclaimers are not made readily and easily available. We will not return. Outback SteakHouse down the street has better food. Again, this is not our servers fault. This is a flaw in management. Do better and stop misleading customers with faulty promises.

If you've never heard of Claim Jumper Steakhouse & Bar, you're not alone. This establishment is a West Coast chain restaurant spanning only five states. Coincidentally, by definition, a claim jumper is "a person who seizes another's claim. The vibe evokes the inspiration of Western-themed environs inside a hunting lounge with heavy wood, antler chandeliers, and stoned walls. Reservations were easily made via Open Table to their San Bernardino location off the 10 Freeway at the base of the San Bernardino Mountains. Upon our arrival as first-timers, my partner, his family and I were greeted by the host and led to a table for five somewhere in the middle of the restaurant. After being seated, our server, Milton, greeted us. He gave us ample time to study the huge menu that offered comfort food, from original rotisserie specialties to seafood dishes to hearth-baked pizzas and salad bars. We decided on 7-ounce top sirloin, Atlantic Grilled Salmon, Steak & Shrimps, and the Salad Bar. Complimentary bread started our meal. The food was full of flavor, savory, and delicious. The portions were decent. We were surprised at the end of our meal with a chocolate cake celebrating a graduation. The service was attentive and friendly without being overbearing. The price was comparable to the area. This is one of the restaurants you will want to stop at if you are passing through San Bernardino, and we can recommend this place.

It is 3.5. Service was attentive and fast but the waitress kept recommending stuff to make the cost of the meal higher. She also didn’t mentioned the up charge for sautéed mushroom on the tri-ip. Food is average. Portion seems to shrunk. There is also a surcharge which I don’t understand why they can’t just add on the price of entrees.
