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.

    The food is excellent with a nice range of options so even “picky” eaters can find something that they like. The service is also great—servers are friendly and helpful. It was quite loud last night, but there were several Birthday parties and of course Holiday cheer. Generally when we’ve been there I would say the noise level is medium.

    It started as not good as no one was there to seat us despite a reservation , we called through the kitchen as we see people there . It took 15 minutes before someone came to the hostess table . It was a good thing that the good was superb delicious . The lamb chop was well cook and tasty. The filled dates salad was so good as well . And the free bread love it
