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.

Service took forever. The Server didn’t greet us until after we had been seated for 20 minutes. She ignored us most of our stay and there was hardly any guests in the restaurant when we showed up. Server(s) didn’t deliver all our food at once. Forgot the two orders of fries and second round of drinks ordered. Second time we’ve had bad experience at this restaurant. Won’t be back again.

Thank you for sharing your experience. Sounds like we didn't provide the outstanding service we strive for this time. We'll address this with the staff and make sure it doesn't happen again. We would like to make it up to you. Please swing back by our location and personally share this experience with the manager so we can do right by you.

Have been to BJ's several times and has not disappointed. We were there at 6pm and it was slower, probably due to the Memorial holiday weekend. Our waitress Diane was great and very helpful with recommendations. This is one of our go-to places.

This is a good BJs. The food was good and our server, who seemed somewhat new, obviously wanted our experience to be a good one. My wife said the greens on her salad could have been fresher (as compared to another local restaurant we were at the day before), but she did eat them. We were seated quickly and BJs always seems to be extra attentive to our OpenTable reservation. All in all, a decent experience.

Overall, This was a good experience. Our waitress was brand new and they were definitely very understaffed. It made the wait time long for food and drinks and any returns to the table or rare. Having said this, she was doing a great job. Just had too many tables I think

I normally love BJs. We went twice in a week this week. However last night our server was rude. I was conducting a business meeting while we were eating. She rushed us. Then our shrimp and quinoa bowls were luke warm and half the shrimp was under cooked. I have had other great experiences so we will return again but hopefully this doesn’t happen again. It was my clients first time there and i doubt she will return.

Made a reservation on open table for 730pm. We weren’t seated until 740pm. Service was ok. Food was good however our waitress never brought over water and seemed distracted needing more than one reminder that we needed something or we’re waiting on something.

This was our second visit and you are my new favorite restaurant. There are lots of healthy options that suit my diet restrictions. I had the kale and roasted Brussels sprout salad with the blackened salmon. It was great. My husband really enjoyed the fish and chips too. I love the zucchini straws, they are amazing! The beer selection is great. I love the nutty brunette and my husband and I both liked the red one that I can't remember the proper name of. The gluten free pazookie was delicious. The servers seemed a bit over extended this past Saturday but Angela still did a good job. It's a bit noisy and hard to have conversations without talking extra loud. All in all we really love BJ's Brewhouse.

We really do enjoy it here. The staff is very nice and service is usually excellent. The cost is just a bit high for what you get but if you value good service above all, they seem to have things pretty tight here.

We were there for my 14 year old daughters birthday party for a party of 12. We were seated fast but they only had one waitress for our large party and the poor girl had a hand full of other tables to wait on also so we had very very slow service on drink refills or more drink orders for the adults . I do not blame our waitress she was running as fast as she could trying to help us I really think a manager should have helped her by giving her a little help for our large party or stepped in to help her out. Half our orders came out messed up salads missing the chicken added to them side dishes cold and a couple orders totally wrong but after a very very long wait to get our food delivered to the table people just kept the wrong orders and people had eaten half their salad before their grilled did make it to them . Then we were served desert and they still had not cleaned off our plates from our meals or any of the few glasses from refills we did get the ladies bringing out the food just handed out the desert and the kids had to move plates around to try and make room to eat desert till I spoke up and said could you please remove the dirty plates so they have room to eat . I then was given dirty looks be the two lady's that had brought out the deserts . I mean a bill for 12 people eating dinner and desert and no one was ordering off the kids menu I was spending a good amount of money and expected better than what was received tonight . I did talk to our waitress and tell her thank you for doing the best she could for being left alone with our big party plus a full section to take care of on top of it.

We've been to other locations. This one is very loud, waited almost 20 minutes to be seated for my "reservation" "because we're waiting for enough wait staff to arrive to seat you." Food was good, but salads were waaaay over dressed. Whomever made them that evening definitely had a heavy hand with the dressing. Since mine was the main entree, I left disappointed. And although the restaurant is a standard BJ's cookie-cutter layout, the noise seemed to carry and bounce around way more than other locations. I suppose it could have been the 50-75 people packed into the lobby waiting to be seated. On a brighter side, there is a good selection of beers with a nice color chart on the back of the menu. Helped those less familiar to pick what they wanted. And beer was very tasty. Not a total failure, but definitely was lacking in a complete package.
