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 just moved into the area a couple months ago. We’ve. When trying out local restaurants and this one made the top of our Chinese list. The food was great. Mason was a top notch server. The owner stopped by our table to check on us. 10/10.

Everything was fantastic, from the appetizer (gotta get those onion rings!), to the main course and the sides (worth the upcharge for the hot slaw), even the table bed was that amazing griddled salted rye. Our server was very attentive and did a great job.
