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 on a Sunday and were among the first tables seated at this BYOB bistro. The restaurant decor is lovely, but the many windows give on to the parking lot and the busy road beyond. Sheer or translucent light-filtering window treatments would add to the intimacy of the dining room before sunset. To start, we enjoyed the charcuterie board with 2 cheeses, 2 meats, grilled bread, olives, fruits, fig jam smear, and a morsel of honeycomb. The frenched chicken garnished with tomato and a slice of artichoke heart served over mashed potatoes with scampi sauce was moist, tender, and delicious, as was the bouillabaisse with fresh halibut that my husband enjoyed. The ample grilled broccolini were firm and tasty. For dessert, the churros with dipping sauces were very crunchy but a tad too dense. Service was kind and attentive. Overall, a very pleasant meal, if just a bit pricey for the experience.
