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.

    Before anything else!!! The staff our waitresses Ms. Kim and Ms. Aria (I hope I got her name correct) were just incredible. Ms. Kim was so attentive, quick, friendly and just had a real good vibe- the food was good! And the portions were on point. Wedge salad, wings,corn dog bites and bacon wrap shrimp! My husband and I shared everything plus a few shots couple beers! All under $140 ! They have live jazz!! We were not seated in bar area! But you can hear the music anywhere you sit! I definitely want to go back and sit in bar area listen to music! Was a cool spot! I will be back!

    Great food! We got Chicken Tinga Tacos and Sirloin enchiladas. My $5 Margarita was beautifully presented. There being a slight chill in the air, I was given a cozy, bright red throw to put over my legs. A delightful and tasty experience.
