About the restaurant

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.

Devin was our server and she was great!!!! We were novice with sushi so she walked us through it. Food was very good. Only complaint was the sun was to hot on our table and there aren’t any shades or blinds on the windows. They couldn’t move us to a shaded table because they didn’t have a server for the shaded tables.

Great acknowledgement from start to finish! The host was very approachable and courteous! Sidney our waitress was very attentive and knowledgeable of the extensive menu!! We were there for mom's birthday lunch and she was overwhelmed with the varities of the food menu, although a little disappointed that they offered no Sangria's or Margarita's. *3 years old and rarely take a drink she also stated how she missed photos of food and drinks on the menu(LOL). Overall we would recommend this establishment for a relaxing bite to eat, aura, and outstanding customer service!!!!!! Thanks Sidney for your service!!

Enjoyed my brunch at Brio for my younger sister's birthday. We were given a large table for an additional guest, and the server was attentive and hospitable. My family and I enjoyed her very much. My hope is that Brio continues to improve on its pricing and food quality. The pasta Alla vodka was very good, I wish the portion was bigger. The berries and waffles were average. One plate of waffles was overcooked and was re-made. The steak plates came out very good to my family as well, that included a top serloin and medallions.
