Time counts at BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse. Since our humble beginnings back in 1978, we’ve continued to refine our brewhouse experience to make BJ’s a place where you can make the most of any meal. We want BJ’s to be a place where the moment you leave is the moment you plan on coming back. We pride ourselves in our craft and attention to detail. Our guests come here for our award-winning handcrafted beer. They come here for the Southern California twist we’ve put on the Chicago-style deep dish pizza. And they come here for our Pizookies®, our world-renowned dessert. But above all we know people come here to make their good times better. So in many ways we haven’t just crafted a brand, but a mindset. And our guests are the reason for this. And it’s because of them we’re continually striving to make sure every moment they choose to spend with us counts. Welcome to BJ’s, a restaurant with a Brewhouse soul.

Ambience here is serene and beautiful, food is cooked with simplicity bringing out its true flavors, scallops, filet mignon and rainbow trout were our choices. You can’t go wrong with any of them! We will be back again and again.

    I will be returning to Ella. This initial experience was a lunch time that. I enjoyed the burger and learned about the process of creating the meal, the baking of the bread, and the quality of meat used, just how this meal differs from Ella's sister resturants. The NA tonic was refreshing, I look forward to giving their signature G&T a try. The ambiance is refreshing in Sacramento, where we have so few high-end establishments. I'd recommend visiting solo at the bar, at a table with a friend's or a private space to enjoy your party. Pricing was fine, overall comparable to area resturants.

    This was our first time at Chef Frank’s, after hearing so many great things about the place from friends. It certainly did not disappoint! I had the mystery box, my hubby had the tuna sashimi lunch bento box and my daughter had the teriyaki chicken and teriyaki salmon bento box. Each Bento box came with miso soup and salad. Everyone was stuffed and happy! The mystery box for me had the best and fattiest cuts of fish that I absolutely adored!!! We will be back again!!!
