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.

Very nice atmosphere. I went in the bar/lounge area to take a picture by their beautifully lit Christmas tree. There was a whole vibe in the lounge area. I had the chicken marsala. I did find that it was a bit bland. I rarely use salt/pepper at a restaurant, but it was needed. Will definitely go back and try other dishes on the menu. ...Oh...the bread and herb-oil - fire!!!
