   Nice restaurant with good food. I had the shrimp taco's and the chili, both were very good.

   Grand Cru is now my favorite BJ's beer. I have had many of their seasonal offering and none of them really caught my eye. Grand Cru really takes the cake and they should really carry it year round.

   Visited tonight after the IU basketball game and I am glad we made a reservation. Service was excellent and our server was very sweet and helpful finding gluten free options. I like having a place in town that has good gluten free buns.

   My family had a wonderful experience at BJ's. Our server Rey did a great job and offered us some tastes of beer when looking through the menu. Although the price of beer was a bit high, we still enjoyed them. The food was great and we will definitely be back again.

   The food was ok, standard type American chain pub food. The service was awful, way, way under staffed and bar drinks took literally 30 mins. Waitress was rude, probably from being over worked. Nevertheless, I can’t recommend at 3 stars or worse…… It was a bust.

   Great lunch today with my daughter and son in law. We were greeted and sat right away and the host was very warm and welcoming. Food came out quick and was very tasty. Overall great experience once again.

   Food took forever and just wasn't great. Service was bare minimum.

   Received 2 calls to confirm, one in the late morning and again in the early evening. They should have told us that they couldn’t accommodate us. Seated right away, but took over 30 minutes to get first drink, second never arrived. Ordered apps that just never came. Food took 90 minutes to arrive and when it did, that was when we were told that they were out of the apps that we ordered and one of the entrees. So we had 7out of 8 meals, but no napkins or silverware to eat with. That took too long too. Food got cold. Yes, I lost my keys patience and yelled, I apologized. The entire meal was comped. Manager had zero answers for any of the multitude other of things that went wrong. But then again there really could be no answers. On the plus side, the restaurant was very clean, including the bathrooms, and the food was really pretty good. The server was also very sweet, and very frustrated that she had no answers. The 90plus minutes to get our food was just much too long and not even being able to get a drink was ridiculous.

   Took too long, gave our food to another table, the shrimp wasn’t cooked, the greeter was rude and our order was never put in which made the meal much longer than it should have been.

    A very simple dish like alfredo pasta, was definitely not good. The chicken looked and tasted like processed meat.
