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.

    Everything was wonderful. My granddaughter’s Mac n cheese could have been hotter as well as my soup but truly we love coming here. It’s always very festive on Friday nights. My husband loves the beet selection.

    Our waitress/management failed to tell us a very large group was coming in to the same section where we were seated. We had just ordered a dessert and asked her to bring our checks when it came out; then she got busy with the "new group". Our dessert was not delivered for over 30 minutes even after one member of our group went looking for a manager. She did eventually find our waitress again and explained our discontent. We were informed "we stayed too long" but she would get our checks. Our dessert got delivered by another staff person but not our checks. We could hardly talk to each other but decided since we had a menu we would figure out our totals and just leave it on the table. We informed the hostess as we left that we had done that and walked out. It will be a long time before I take my group back there. Too many other choices to dine.

    Reservation for 8 so got a pretty big booth, NICE!! We don't like restaurant chairs due to back injuries, so comfort was great. The wait staff was great too! The drinks, appetizers and main meals were all really good. I definitely recommend this restaurant.

    Food was great. Always love going there. Waited 20 minutes for our cocktails that never came. I finally went to the bar where the drinks were sitting. Our server was not on his game.
