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.

    My experience was unbelievable! From the moment I walked into the restaurant to the moment I left everything was so perfect. Gabby was our waitress and she was nothing short of amazing. She was attentive very, very nice so professional and did not miss a beat. I actually made sure that she is now in my profile at the restaurant. My ribeye was probably one of the best if not the best ribeye I’ve ever had. I could even cut it with a butter knife. The Caesar salad was amazing and the twice baked potato oh my gosh.!! I definitely left their extremely happy satisfied and very full. I live in Tampa and will definitely be coming back. If I could give the restaurant more than five stars, I would not one thing was not amazing.

    This was our first visit to the Braized Onion. The experience was perfect! The service was friendly and professional, the food was delicious, and the value on point. I had the meatloaf, which was unique and delicious. A friend joining me had the fish and chips, which was also delicious. The coconut cream pie was unlike any I’ve ever tasted!
