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 celebrated a birthday at the Charles last night. We were greeted warmly, including a card for the birthday girl. Our server was attentive but not intrusive. Great drinks. Our food was fresh and delicious. Dessert came with a birthday candle. I highly recommend the Charles for an overall excellent experience.

We love Vito’s! Everything is so fresh! My Sicilian style pizza ( thick crust) with sauce, oregano and parmesean cheese was EXCELLENT! A special touch was when we asked for the famous Biti’s dipping sauce we’ve had in the past—- they made it for us! ( has Gorgonzola and spicy peppery taste—- it’s so delicious!) the other entrees: Lemon shrimp special, lobster ravioli and chicken parm were also teriffic. Run, don’t walk to Vito’s Wethersfield!
