Had a great experience for lunch today with Jacob as our server. He was very knowledgeable of the menu and offered great suggestions! Would definitely recommend the restaurant just to have him as your server! read more

Not impressed. Sat at the bar, ordered the Wagyu burger, which was not great. Bartender didn't even give me silverware. Had to walk halfway down the bar to get catchup. Ordered a half and half deep dish to go, and it does not have that signature tase or feel. This place is slipping. read more

We gave this BJ's Brewhouse location a second chance, and it was somehow even worse than the first. We waited forever just to get our drinks, and when they finally arrived, they weren't even the drinks we ordered. Then our deep dish pizza came out and it was awful. We ended up leaving hungry because it wasn't worth eating. After two disappointing experiences, we've given this location every opportunity to improve. Unfortunately, this was our last visit. Never again. read more

Summer was the best. She got the order correct. Columbia South Carolina's rib eye was perfect!!! Good job SC !!!

We were a large party and the service was fast and efficient. I got the half rack of ribs. They were cooked well and came off the bone when eating them. Mashed potatoes were delicious too. The asparagus had a bit too much pepper on it. I did order a pizookie to go. I ordered chocolate chip, but didn't realize until I got home that it was a sugar cookie. I still ate it, but definitely not as good as chocolate chip. read more

Food was really good overall. The pizookies were definitely on point -- warm, gooey, and exactly what you want for dessert. The pizza was good too, but it wasn't as saucy or cheesy as a traditional deep dish. It leaned a little more bready, but the flavor was still solid. read more

We walked in and were seated quickly, even with a party of seven. Our server was highly attentive and made sure everything ran smoothly. The food was amazing--the wings were full of flavor, the burger was fresh and cooked perfectly, and the dessert trio was the perfect way to end the meal. Overall, a great dining experience and definitely worth coming back for! read more

Food was okay. Unfortunately, our server accidentally spilled an entire glass of water on my neice. So much so, he top and jeans were soaked and we had to move tables. It would have been nice to have offered her a free dessert. We had to go home after eating and missed a shopping date. read more

The food is very inconsistent! However, I do like the service and ambiance at the bar area. We enjoyed the wings and salad. The pizza was atrocious. I just knew it was frozen pizza intended for a small child. It was not as described. The calamari was salty and only enjoyable due to the dipping sauces. Plenty of parking and close to shopping centers. Lots of seating and great for large groups. I doubt I'll visit again as a problem arises each time. read more

Server was very attentive. He refilled our water several times. It is a casual restraunt. Noise is average. If you use readers, bring them. The writing on the menu is small. The wings were crispy skin and cooked all the way through. I will not be ordering them again. They only tasted like chicken. There was no lemon pepper taste. Another person ordered the boneless spicy and they said the same. No flavor. read more

Ordered delivery, so won't rate the food temp. Ribs, with dry rub, without sauce-dry rub ribs doesn't mean DRY ribs, and that's what these were. Also, rather flavorless. Had to add our own rub. Fries-they were ok, nothing special. Avocado egg rolls-decent but not what I was hoping for. Overall ok, but nothing that makes me want to order again. read more

Well... it was a good ride while it lasted. I've been going to BJ's since it opened here in Columbia. For years it was a dependable spot--good food, solid service, and an atmosphere that made it genuinely enjoyable to visit. Unfortunately, that hasn't been the case for quite a while now. BJ's really seemed to suffer during the pandemic, and in my experience it never fully recovered. Since things returned to normal, I've only been a handful of times, and each visit has been progressively worse--while prices have continued to climb. Last night will likely be my final visit. We were seated without cutlery and had to ask someone other than our server because he was rarely around. My drink never arrived; I was simply given a glass of water. The wait for food was over 30 minutes, and when it finally came out it was cold and lacked flavor. After that, it took an unusually long time to get desserts and the check. We were seated at 6:35 PM and didn't leave until 9:00 PM. I truly wish the staff and the business well, but I don't plan to spend my hard-earned money here anymore. read more

Whoever was at the entrance when we came in today was very rude to us when we asked to sit at a booth instead of a table. You would've thought that we were asking for something unrealistic was told to wait 15 to 20 minutes, even though we were the only group in the restaurantour waiter was wonderful and I didn't wanna mention that. read more

Great atmosphere, great hostess and food was delicious! I recommend the dill pickle dry rub chicken wings.

Beers are really good, food is good, service can be hit or miss. If you get Gill or Ray as your server, you will be in excellent hands and do your self a favor and have them help you pick or customize a dish. I have 2 young girls as well and Gill always speaks to them directly and lets them place their order. He is always super patient and makes my girls not feel small at all, but like a valued customer. Over the years they have spilled their drinks at least twice and he was always quick to assist and made them feel OK with making a mistake. BJs is good, Gill makes it great. Ray is solid too. read more

First time eating there. Good selection, made it had to decide what to try first. Food was great. Service was great (Brandon). Nice neighborhood bar vibe. read more

Gilbert was our server and did a terrific job. We had a very nice time Chips avocado dip all great. I didn't have to pay I did notice the prices were a little more than some other places. Bj'a has been there a while and is good service. Clean all the way around, felt safe in parking lot and all that jazz. read more

I have reviewed this place before, but ended up here today. We sat at the bar and Shannon was absolutely amazing. It was obvious they were busy but she was so kind, personable, and attentive to us. Our food was amazing as usual. This is such an under appreciated restaurant! read more

This place was spectacular!! From the drinks to the staff to the amazing food. The ambience was amazing. We started off with the chicken potstickers and let me tell you 10/10. The drinks were strong and refreshing from the beer to the frozen wine slushy. I highly recommend you to come family friendly. read more

Thank you BJ's for satisfying our indecisive, late night hunger fix. We had about a 25-30 minute wait before being seated. The do use a text app. Our server (please forgive me for not writing down his name; it was either Malcolm or Malik working this past Saturday night); was so amazing, helpful and exceeded our customer service expectations and he really deserved a shout out. The menu had a large variety of options. We ordered sliders, wings and pizza and enjoyed each item equally. Televisions were mounted and streamed various sports and television programs. Bar on site. Plenty of parking. read more

Average chain restaurant visually on par with Chili's and way above Applebees. I could say the food was great, but it's not. Some items came out overcooked, some burnt, and some raw. We sat in the bar area for faster service and the bartender was great, matter of fact he saved the experience. The atmosphere in the restaurant was stagnant and dead. I imagine it's because of the inconsistency in their food, or a lazy, non caring kitchen staff. If you are going to cook for others be passionate about it, or find other employment. I might try another BJ's out of town and compare the difference. read more

This is a great place for American food! Wedge salad was fresh and crisp! I tried the dry rub wings and they were delicious! Our server was super helpful with many selections. Sad i was too full for dessert but maybe next time!! Their pazookies look amazing and you can even get a trio and try 3 at once. Food came out in great timing and hot! I've heard great things about their pizzas and will definitely try them in the future. read more

They used to have a really good burger but they have switched to some frozen premade patties comparable to bubbas, I think. Not sure on the sliders. I guess they are trying to maintain the prices and quality might be going down. read more

I had the barbecue bacon burger and was a little disappointed in the burger itself. It was rather small. Bacon and barbecue sauce added flavor on the undersized patty. The french fries were great when they were hot, but as they cool, became less palatable. The bright and shining star of my experience with my server. She was very attentive, but not over the top. Kelsey was my server. read more

BJs should just stick to deep dish pizzas and pizookies. I ordered the chicken with crusted Parmesan and it looked good but had zero flavor. The Parmesan didn't even have salt itself. Then when trying to use the salt shakers, both had clumpy salt and their excuse was that the humidity made it that way. I live in humidity, upstate SC, so we're not immune to it, and our salt doesn't clump like that. Plus their place was air-conditioned which by default will lower the humidity inside the building. Just saying. Been to several BJs across the country and this visit at this location was just a total miss. Your location is over two hours away, but we will be going that way more often. It would take something special in order for our family to visit that location again. That said, thank you for your response. read more

We love coming here they offer lots of different options for everyone. They have amazing gluten-free pizza. There are different games for football fans. We never have to wait long and the staff is welcoming and kind. The best part is the pizza cookie which they also have in GF!!!! We will always be down for coming to BJ's. read more

Went for lunch yesterday. Seating and service was fine. The prime rib dip sandwich was very gook. My wife's entre was a "chicken wrap". Very little chicken, however - although it was good. However, the fries were over-salty, Both for me and my wife. All we could really taste was the "salt". We should have sent them back - but didn't - short on time. The cookie/cookie dough desert was also too salty. Did not finish that. Suggest if you go here (Mesa/AZ) - Ask/tell waiter to tell cook not to put any salt on food. That ruined our experience. Won't be going back anytime soon - if ever. read more

Great service but 15.95 a drink for Tito's and soda never again!!! Location was good and thought that's why they charge so much.

Just left the lake and the food never got cooked me and the wiz stopped at BJs on Harbison .. rather calm night .. .. no drinks tonight just water (just left the lake house) .. for out app we had the Chili Crunch Pot Stickers.. got the potstickers and they looked dry.... We ordered a side of the sauce they were cooked in and that wasn't it .. we ordered soy sauce ... and it did make the taste better but regardless the potstickers weren't seasoned ... wouldn't order again ... the wings were also average nothing to wow about I ordeee the ranch dry rub and the BJs house style... read more

Going to keep this short and sweet. Been coming here for a while and I don't think I've even had a bad experience or a bad meal. The beer is cold and the wings are good & hot haha. I got the mozzarella sticks for an app this time and was surprised how many came in the order. The staff is always nice no matter how busy it is! You won't leave hungry. read more

Stopped for Sunday lunch, and it was on point! Service was amazing. Thank you, Alexus! Ambience was great! Wish we could've seen the real brewery in action like some brewhouses. Started with the Avocado egg rolls, came out fresh, hot & delish with that sweet tamarind dipping sauce that put em over the edge! We also had a strawberry chicken salad with candied pecans & mandarins. A mini pizza, like a personal pan size, BJs favorite, filled w/all fresh delish toppings like sausage, peppers, read more

The food is very expensive which I don't mind as long as the food is good very disappointed in the quality of the food because I ate at one of these restaurants in Colorado and it was excellent so I blame it on the chef. Honestly, our waitress was excellent, but the food was terrible. I would never go back again. I ordered a Philly cheesesteak and after waiting for 45 minutes it came out cold had no onions had no mushrooms had no peppers but I eat it because I was starving. My wife ordered a hamburger for $15. I'm expecting some thing a little better very bland. I ordered asparagus as a side dish. It looked like it was a week old and she ordered the broccoli the broccoli was like rubber. It should've been thrown out hours ago. Just disappointed I was expecting more. read more

My family and I went there for a late night dinner. We got there at 10:45 and 15 minutes later we were still waiting for someone to acknowledge that we needed to be seated or even greeted. When the guy finally came to seat us he had an attitude!. No sorry for the wait, no welcome to BJ's restaurant or anything. Order messed up, lemonade drink TERRIBLE and the food was horrible!!! Only things that were edible were the fries and wings. Parking not an issue the store was clean and the only really good thing was our waitress. Paid $70 for two mini(4slices) 2 lemonades, wings a fries. Considering only food that was eaten was wings, fries and the beer was drank. I am never coming back!!! read more

We started with chips and queso. The chips were pretty salty and tasted a little rancid as if they were cooked in old oil Queso was just ok, not a lot of flavor. We wanted something light so we ordered chicken tortilla soup and chili, both were unremarkable. The tortilla soup tasted like it had a thickening agent for more substance. We wanted brussel spouts, the bartender even said they were one of her favorites so we ordered some but never got them. The bartender was nice, personable but not extremely attentive. Ambiance was good, not very loud but with all the other factors (food, service, etc) I wouldn't recommend it. read more

Had a pretty good experience at BJ's. This was my third time here! They didn't have any flights available but I enjoyed the lemon berry margarita. The kickin' chicken sandwich was also good & their serving sizes are great! I plan to return to try more. read more

Dissapointed in my "deep dish pizza" that came out looking like a fresh out the oven Diggiorno rising crust frozen pizza. Asked my waitress what gives? And compared the menu to what I received and was told sorry our pizzas all arrive frozen and we have no control over how the dough rises...what kind of deep dish pizza uses rising dough? Anyways service was pretty good, my diggiorno didnt taste bad... but I'll grab it from publix next time. I feel ripped off, everyone elses food looked great, I would not recommend the "deep dish" pizza. No one came to speak with us after telling waitress we were unsatisfied with our pizza. read more

My husband and I had a reservation for Saturday evening. We arrived and was seated immediately. The server arrived to take our drink order, I got a white peach bobo Rita and my husband got a lemonade, we each also asked for water. We ordered buffalo wings for an appetizer. The wings were good, my cocktail was also good but the service was lacking. Once the server took our order we didn't see him much. He didn't even ask if I wanted another cocktail or even refilled our water. The entree was ok, my husband had the salmon and I had chicken sandwich with onion rings and coleslaw. My chicken was dry, the onion rings weren't hot and the coleslaw was ok. We did have dessert, chocolate chip pizookie. Now that was good just wished I had enjoyed my entree. read more
