It was very hot in the restaurant. The fans were off, it felt the AC was off. The temp outside was close to 100.

It’s great to be a Wine Club member !! I had a complimentary bottle at my table and used birthday credits. Such an awesome perk.

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.

Our server was fantastic! I wish I remembered her name but she had pink makeup and blonde curled hair!! She was efficient, had fun energy, and very personable. The Santa Fe salad is the best, and the strawberry shortcake pizookie was delish. Definitely one of me and my boyfriends favorite resturaunts!
