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.

    This was our 3rd visit to BJ’s and was our last. Past experiences were the same as this one. We were greeted warmly and sat promptly. Our server arrived right away and was very pleasant. We placed our food order only to be told they were out of some items - onion rings! How are you out of those at 5:30 pm dinner? The food arrived and was below average. Not cooked as requested as well. The only positive about this meal was the greeter and server. Everything else wasn’t worth the $50 price. Never returning.

    Thank you for sharing your experience Steve. Sounds like we didn't provide the outstanding service we strive for this time. We'll address this with the staff and make sure it doesn't happen again. We would like to make it up to you. Please swing back by our location and personally share this experience with the manager so we can do right by you.

    Maybe avoid BJ’s during the holidays? The waitress did her best but I didn’t make up for the poor quality of food.

    Our first time here but trust me, it won’t be the last! Dane took fantastic care of us. Cocktails were great. Entrees were very tasty and large portions - chicken Alfredo, smokehouse burger with onion rings and chicken Thai pasta - yum!

    Food was amazing. I had Sal's chicken and it was so flavorful and light. The portions are just right. My only negative was they took our dessert without asking if we were done and we still had some left.

    Did not know this was a chain. Unappealing at first impression. Reasonable food quality/quantity and service quality, emphasis on the latter saved the day.
