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.

    We have been here several times. Our last visit was poor at best. We waited for our food for over 30 minutes and it came out COLD.

    The food was delicious. The holiday drinks were fun. It’s too bad that our server was terrible. Her name is Jillian and when I go back I will request not to be put in her section.

    They were out of some standard dishes. Unsure why they would be out on New Years Eve. I've always had a great experience there but lately it seems Management had not been doing their part to get stock for the standard items. They need to do better. Staff is wonderful.

    Thanks for the feedback! We're glad to hear you enjoyed our staff but apologize for the shortages on New Year’s Eve. We’re actively working with management to ensure we’re better stocked in the future. Your continued support means a lot to us!

    Pizza was cold. Soup was just warm. Salad had no dressing. Beer was slow to be served.
