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 dined here for dinner to celebrate our friends' anniversary. We ordered the calamari. While the sauces (lemon aoili and cocktail sauce) were flavorful, the calamari was not well season and the breading crumbled easily when dipped in sauce. It seemed to be undercooked and poorly breaded. We ordered the new york steak, ribeye, steak and lobster and ahi tuna salad. The steaks were flavorful and perfectly cooked (medium, medium well) and we enjoyed the peppercorn sauce over the mashed potatoes. The mashed potatoes were surprisingly lumpy, more smashed then mashed and thicker than most restaurants. They also needed a bit more salt. The string beans were al dente and flavorful. The lobster, served atop its shell, was good enough and the drawn butter slightly too salty. The portions are generous yet we were all able to eat most of our meal, even with appetizers and drinks. The restaurant itself is beautifully decorated. We did have to shoo away a fly multiple times throughout the meal and mentioned it to our server. For the ambience alone added to the the attentiveness of our server, and our curiosity about the brunch experience, we would return.
