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.

    We had a reservation at 6:30 and were seated at 6:35. The waitress took our order shortly after. We ordered 2 chicken Parmesan and a sandwich with fries (nothing special). We did not get our food until almost 7:30. Every person around us that was seated after us received their food way before we did. I could tell that my meal had sat under the warming table for a while as I have worked in many restaurants. Do better BJ’S

    Sorry to hear you were disappointed with your meal, Susan. We want all our guests to leave with warm smiles and full stomachs. If you're ever unsatisfied with your order, please speak with an on-site manager, so we can fix it for you right away.

    They seated us 15 minutes after our reservation and said for our inconvenience we could get 2 free apps. Now that’s what I call customer service.

    BJ's is one of my favorites. The Tavern Cut Classic pizza adding anchovies is the best. Of course I had to pair it with a Pumpkin beer this time of year!

    Wish I could remember our server’s name..she was so nice and friendly with our party of 9. We could tell she was busy with other tables because it was hard for her to stop over a couple times but she was still a wonderful server and when she was free, she brought things to us so fast. Food was great. We ordered food for our children when we first arrived and they served it promptly. This is always a good spot for our family.
