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.

    Server, Jennifer was sweet, patient, helpful. Great server! She’s too good to be working at BJ’s. Food came out cold. Steak and burger over cooked. Hair in one dessert and a piece of plastic in another dessert. Took over an hour to get our food. Kitchen was out of bowls for the soup, so was given a cup of soup, and they were out of dishes that the large cookie comes in. It was brought out in a to-go container. The kitchen staff is a MESS! It needs help! Had to ask a busier for napkins and silverware. Some plates and silverware were dirty. We will never return!

    Very busy but we were seated within 5 minutes. A great selection of menu options. All food was served hot and all 4 meals were excellent. We will definitely return.

    The food was all cold, took forever to come out and the portions were small for the cost. I was very disappointed for the good things I had heard about eating there. It was a special gathering for six of my family members.

    Our party of seven was seated promptly at our reservation time. Service was attentive, professional, and courteous. Our entrees varied from chicken to steak to kids corn dogs, and everyone was pleased with quality and portion size. The Pizookies were great! We will return.

    Our server was amazing. She was attentive and had such a beautiful smile. She came over and talked to us many times and always had that smile. The food was good and creative. The drinks were very good as well. A little loud and hard to carry a conversation but over all the services made my day.

    we had a reservation but still weren't seated for 20 min, as if we had just walked in without a reservation.

    While the food was good, the poor waitress was having to run all over waiting on tables on one side of the restaurant and having to go to the other side to wait on us. There is some understanding that it was a Saturday night and but it felt like management was stretching its self a little bit.  The waitress did the best she could.

    Would go back BUT service was very slow …… the waiter did apologize since there was a few big parties present that day …. Could have gone a long way to make a gesture of a few drinks or something along with the apologies
