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.

    DO NOT make reservations here, as the restaurant does not honor them. My family and I arrived at 5 pm for our reserved table, as we had tickets for an event. We were told there would be a 10-minute wait. At 5:30 pm, we were still waiting and saw others with reservations having the same experience. Moreover, walk-in customers were given the same wait times. When I inquired about our reservation at 5:40 pm, I was informed it would be another 20 to 30 minutes, but we could eat at the bar immediately. Frustrated but pressed for time, we opted for the bar. On a positive note, our waitress was exceptional. She quickly took our order and provided outstanding service, which somewhat redeemed our experience.

    Gina, we’re truly sorry to hear about your experience with reservations. We understand how frustrating that must have been, especially with your event. Thank you for your kind words about our waitress; we’ll make sure to share your feedback. We’re working to improve our reservation process for the future.

    It's a little bit too dark in the overall restaurant and bar. A slightly more lit area around the dining room would help diners see where they are walking - the dark wood floors, dark furniture and poorly lit area in general makes it hard to maneuver.

    Thanks so much for your four-star review. We look forward to seeing you again soon, and we'll try for that fifth star.

    I usually love eating at BJ’s, but this was by far the worst experience I’ve had at their chains. We made a reservation a week prior for 4 people at 5pm. When we got there, it looked like the staff up front were in complete disarray. Even though we had a reservation, waiting for them to seat us took forever. Our waiter was disorganized and either forgot about us several times, or just took way too long in between checking on us. About 35 minutes after we had ordered from him, he introduced us to our new waitress because he was going on lunch. He literally said “I’m going on lunch to eat because I’m starving”. As he walked away, my husband laughed and said “ya… us too”. When all was said and done, it took about 45 minutes to get our food after we ordered and unfortunately, it was cold and 2/4 were incorrect. We had to rush out of there to get to a 7pm show, but even after telling our new waitress that we were now in a hurry, she seemed to be in no rush to help us out. Long story short, definitely think about making reservations elsewhere.

    Thank you for sharing your experience. 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.

    Our server was great. But the front desk was not organized or friendly. We had a reservation and still larger groups were sat before us while we waited.
