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 were celebrating my husband’s birthday. The ginger soy salmon was delicious. The Dana’s Parmesan chicken was also delicious. The Asian slaw and roasted vegetables were delicious as usual. The pesto Caesar salad was the best I have had there. Our server, Julie G, was excellent. And of course the wine was awesome.

    As you enter the restaurant, you're welcomed by a warm atmosphere and a friendly bartender. Be sure to make a reservation in advance, as the place fills up quickly. Once seated, your attentive server greets you with a smile and shares the evening's specials while offering drinks. Feel free to ask them any questions about the menu, as they are very knowledgeable. The restaurant operates like a well-oiled machine, with each employee focused on providing excellent service. I highly recommend dining at Gamba for a delightful night out or lunch, guaranteed to offer quality food, fair prices, and an enjoyable atmosphere with friends, family, or colleagues.

    Chicken and waffles were the best ones I've ever had, the burger with the gold flakes was also really cool. Drinks were great and our server was lovely. Our only "complaint" is that they didn't have gluten free toast available which is no big deal but would be a nice addition to the brunch menu. But we were 110% satisfied
