Family-friendly chain outpost pairs familiar pub fare with an extensive list of house brews.

Customer Review Summary

BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse receives high praise for its excellent service and welcoming atmosphere. Customers appreciate the friendly and attentive staff, like Marco and Rosalinda, who enhance their dining experience. The food, including menu specials like the prime rib and BJ’s Favorite Mini pizza, consistently impresses, although opinions on the new Deep Dish Pizza options vary. The restaurant's signature dessert is a highlight for many. However, there was a concerning incident involving a roach in the dining area that negatively impacted one guest's experience, raising cleanliness issues. Despite this, guests frequently express satisfaction and recommend specific items like the beer and trio pizookie.

First time visit and it exceeded expectations. From the moment we arrived until we left, we were treated like royalty. The hostess was so friendly and engaging. Marco was entertaining, had great recommendations and was always available. Kevin, the GM introduced himself, and checked on us throughout our meal. The beer, food and dessert were excellent.

Jesse made sure my BJ’s Favorite Mini pizza was prepared perfectly. It was the best one I have had in a while. My smiley fries where ruined in a bar collision and Jesse made sure I had a replacement in record time

Relative new menu with huge Deep Dish Pizza options that you can share. Not a fan of them, but it adds variety to their menu. Always a good place to eat. Their signature dessert is always great

I was finished through half my meal and saw the roach crawling on the wall. It literally had an egg sack so that means there’s more. I couldn’t eat anymore. Told my waiter and it seemed like they knew because they were like “Oh let me talk to my manager to get you something for seeing that” Gross! I don’t want more food from a place that seems like they don’t care about roaches being on the walls. They’re probably crawling on the food too. The waiter was sweet tho, no hate to them. Waste of $60 (well for me, my husband finished his food)

We are currently enjoying BJs Grand Gru Beer in celebration of its 25th Silver Anniversary. It features delightful fruity and spicy flavors, served ice cold. Highly recommended! Not sure if it's still available for purchase, but it’s definitely worth seeking out.

Everything was amazing! The food was on point. I ordered the prime rib weekend special (prime rib, soup or salad, 2 sides, and a cookie dessert with ice cream on top). The prime rib was tender and flavorful. The sides were delicious and filling. Fantastic and prompt service too. I also love the atmosphere. The music isn't loud and the lighting is perfect for a romantic night out. The staff is friendly and they make you feel welcome and at home. Thank you Tommy for the wonderful service.

Every time I go to this place I have a great time, I have tried different dishes being fish and chips my favorite. The trio pizookie is ambrosia, go and try it.
