About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Kid-friendly
Great for craft beers

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 came to BJ's Brewery for Father's Day (with a reservation). I noticed on the menu, all fathers would receive a free pint glass for beer. When I asked the waiter, he apologized saying they ran out. Then, when the food came out, the steak was cold on top of our two dinner salads and my dad's food came out cold. The manager did the right thing and remade dad's dinner, quickly, and it came out piping hot. When the waiter came by (maybe 15 min after our food arrived), we assumed he know what happened; he didn't. When the bill arrived, we were shocked that nothing was taken off. In addition, my dad is hard of hearing and the noise in the restaurant was very loud. It was very hard to concentrate on a conversation.

Thanks for sharing your experience, Lynn. We're glad the manager resolved your dad's meal quickly, but we apologize for the other issues you faced. We appreciate your feedback about the noise level and will work to improve the overall experience for our guests. Your insights are valuable to us.

Food was pretty good. Entrees came out before the appetizer; that was kind of annoying. My entree was missing a side that I had to ask for.

Thanks for your feedback, Chris! We're glad you enjoyed the food overall. We apologize for the timing of your meals and the missing side. We'll share your comments with our team to improve the experience. We hope to serve you better next time!

The food here is pretty good - through a bit carb heavy. The portions are large and flavorful. The in-house root beer is great and always served in a frosted mug.
BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse - PolarisResponded on June 10, 2025
Thanks for your feedback, Nicholas! We're glad you enjoyed the flavorful portions and our frosty root beer. We appreciate your insight about the carb content and will keep it in mind as we strive to offer a balanced menu. Hope to see you again soon!

Our service was terrible. I had a reservation and still had to wait for 30 minutes for my table. It was a long delay getting a server to our table. She forgot drink orders, and our food was very delayed. One of our meals was 'ruined' and had to be prepared again so one of us had to wait for their meal while the others went ahead and ate.
BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse - PolarisResponded on May 30, 2025
We are so sorry to read about your recent experience. Our service wasn't up to par, and we apologize for having kept you waiting. Please don't hesitate to reach out to one of our managers the next time this happens. Our team will do everything we can to make it right.

Our party of 6 had a wonderful time! Our server was friendly, knowledgeable, and took care of our orders in a timely fashion. I enjoyed my Strawberry Fields Salad since they could substitute feta cheese for the blue cheese crumbles. My husband had the French Dip, and others in our party had the Thursday specials. Everyone liked their Pizookies. The beer was also good - so many choices! It had been a while since my last visit, but I plan to return soon.

Bonni, we're thrilled to hear you and your party had such a great experience! It's wonderful that you enjoyed the Strawberry Fields Salad and the Pizookies. We can't wait to welcome you back for another round of deliciousness and good times!
