Honestly if I could give this place less than one star I would. My best friends 21st birthday dinner was here and it was honestly the worst experience I have ever had at a restaurant. We arrived 30 minutes early to our reservation and were sat at a table right away where we then ordered waters and drinks and my drink from the bar did not get to the table until 55 minutes later and no apologies were given about that. Ordering drinks and food all night were a hassle and our party got their food separately and almost a whole hour apart from each other, just to bite into the food and it be cold.... but why send food back when your hungry and have been waiting 2 hours for your food. It then took another hour to get the table cashed out and with boxes and the hostess were more of a help than our actual waiter, nonetheless no apologies or discounts were given to any of us for the worst dining experience. Most of us do or have worked in the restaurant and service industry and are very understanding people, but that whole experience was just unacceptable, I don't think any of us plan on ever going back! read more

The food was good. You get nice portions. The service was fine. Their menu is large. Loved the couscous mac and cheese balls. Their mashed potatoes were delicious. Of course, I had to try their strawberry shortcake. Great way to end a meal. read more

I ordered their delicious s'mores pazookie to go and the taller waitress (sorry, so I don't know if this the correct term for her job) with blond curls who brought me my food was so pleasant and professional! Excellent customer service!!! I will definitely be back. read more

Large beer selection. Nice to sit outdoors during summer. Menu on the heavy side though (even their lighter offerings).

I wish I read yelp first because all the 1 and 2 stars were correct. There were 3 different hosts trying to figure out the system to get people seated, while tables sat empty for over 20 minutes. Then when we got sat and ordered and waited over 30 minutes for burgers. The only reason I'm giving 2 stars is because I didn't look at the reviews before I went. read more

We stopped in last week to watch the Lions and have drinks and food. We were charged 29 dollars for 3 vodka and cranberry ridiculous.

Good food and Fair prices Well trained servers Love eating on their patio Have daily specials read more

food is good when the order is right. We have ordered takeout from them and the last 3 times the order is always missing something crucial to the meal. or straight up just a main course missing. also last time we went back to get the missing items staff wasn't too kind, not a big deal just sucks to always be missing stuff then be written off when you just want the stuff you paid for read more

I read the other reviews and almost didn't stop in, but I'm glad I did. The food was very good, and the staff was friendly and curious. The place was very clean and had a PF. Changs open room concept with high ceilings. Very much not a 2.5 star (at the time of this review that is the current rating) restaurant. Speaking with one of the staff about the rating, it sounds like they just opened a few months ago, and experienced growing pains and staffing issues due to Covid. It appears that they are past that now. All in all - I recommend this place. read more

Very nice restaurant with a great menu. Everything (there were 4 of us) was very good with nice portions. One exception was the calamari. It was over cooked and not a great portion size. In general, prices are on the high side, even with the good portion size. The service was good, but not exceptional. I would go back. read more

Food seems overpriced - could have had an equally as good steak at Applebee's for less money in an atmosphere where it was quieter and easier to converse. Lots of hype for Pazookie's, but the cookie base was too sweet for me. read more

Placed an online order November 14 at 2:19pm with a pickup time of 2:45pm. When I received my order it was past the scheduled pickup time in addition to my order was completely incorrect. I ordered sliders with ketchup, lettuce and tomato and nothing came on my food nor did I get the utensils requested When I came into the store to return my order , the lady who greeted me was nice but when she grabbed one manager she came to the back looked at me and said for the person to grab another manager and proceeded to go to the front and speak to another employee. When a gentleman came out who I believe to be another manager he was extremely rude. He questioned if I had a receipt, doubled checked my food to see if I was wrong with what I stated happened, didn't even apologize for me waiting almost an hour for my order to be incorrect and just tossed the food in the garbage and had the lady at the register refund me and walked back to the back As a manager myself the individual could of one made eye contact, apologize for the mishap and have an ounce of customer service. read more

This was our 2nd time at BJ's, we chose to sit at the bar this time around. Kyra was bartending today and took great care of us, she is very friendly and knowledgeable! There was a bit of a wait for our apps and food to come out but it was pretty busy and that's understandable so no big deal. Moving on to the food, we started with Tito's strawberry lemonades, mozzarella sticks and the BBQ tri-tip sliders. They were both pretty good, would definitely recommend the sliders. I had a craving for pasta so ordered the jumbo spaghetti and meatballs. The meatballs were really good, didn't taste like they came frozen from a bag which was awesome. My partner ordered the kickin' chicken sandwich with a side of fries. He put some of the siracha aioli on his sandwich, and overall gives it an 7/10. The bar has a nice selection of beers, wine, and cocktails. BJ's has a nice open concept, not too loud but not too quiet which is great. read more

Love the food here especially dessert. I can't say that I have had a bad experience here!

Food was very good but the service was slow. It was very busy there but all tables around us that were seated after us got their food well before us. read more

I've been to a few of these in different locations. This one is as good as all the others. They have an extensive menu, great food and tons of beers on tap (unfortunately I was working and didn't get to sample any). I had the southern comfort chicken sandwich and it was huge! The service was friendly and they seemed to have a lot of people working the lunch crew. At least 5 people told me "goodbye and thanks for coming" as I was leaving. Great staff! I would highly recommend. In the past I have tried their pizza which is awesome. read more

Place is huge inside and very clean. Staff is super friendly. All of their appetizers are great and their salads are too but hands down their cookie desserts with their ice cream are worth coming for. Ugh soo good. If you get it to go the ice cream comes in it's own little container. read more

Tasty food, fun drinks! I would definitely go back again, the kitchen was having a tougher time keeping up with the orders, that is my only complaint. read more

My group of 5 friends had lunch here a week ago. The booth was nice. Our server was very sweet and made sure to refill drinks and resolve an issue when one of the burgers was not cooked well done. It was busy. The lunch specials were about $12. read more

First off the manager is gutless! I know staffing is tough, but the manager does nothing. Service could not have been slower. Our server who was a good kid went and asked the manager if I could get flights of other beer cause their signature beer was out...he shook his head no. Place is cool but not worth the time and money. The Nashville Chicken sandwich is the size of a chicken strip on a massive bun. Covid or no Covid you still need to find value. read more

The mobile app is a joke. You make your "reservation" and you wait just as long as someone who didn't register ahead. I know. Still waiting after an hour and put out name in the mobile app. Total crap. Lots of empty tables. Too bad they aren't setting anyone. read more

Great service, amazing food definitely recommend! Always a relaxing environment, managers always come up to me making sure my food is good too read more

Traveling through from Alabama and staying in the area. Warned my daughter of a few of the reviews around wait time. We were seated as soon as we walked in. Ordered wine and lemonade. Waitress was not super familiar with the beers or wine, which is ok (especially if they are under 21). Had kids spaghetti and Mediterranean tacos and it was all quick and delicious! Also added on the trio desert, YUM!!! Great food and great experience!! read more

Tried BJ's for the first time today. I was not impressed. We were told the wait was 25 mins, after 40 mins I went to see how much longer the wait was going to be. Turns out the guy didn't put the correct number after I told him 3 times! Took 45 mins for us to get our drinks. Our salads came out before our drinks! Then appetizers came out with our meals. We all ordered prime rib which my son's was very dried. My asparagus was crispy way over cooked. Ordered a baked potato it didn't even come with butter or sour cream. Service was eh, super slow! I think it was very confusing for our waiter because other people were bringing out the food and he didn't know what we got and what we didn't get. Definitely not his fault, he was friendly and trying his best to improve our experience. This place needs better management. Very disorganized and for the price the food was mediocre. read more

The drinks are very expensive and very small. My martini was half of what a normal restaurant would serve or maybe that was do to the waitress spilling half of it on the way. The margaritas flight was sooo gross, mostly that sickly sweet imitation stuff out of a bottle. Food was good but the whole dinner was way too expensive. read more

Stopped by here the last couple of times we have been in the area. The first time was for drinks and noticed some incredible looking meals and made a point to return. Had some great apps and the prime rib which was perfectly cooked and delicious. The atmosphere was lively and service has been great. read more

Had a reservation for 6pm with our toddler. Arrived at 555 to be told we'd have to wait a half hour, even with a reservation.

Mac and cheese isn't the greatest. If your looking for quality Cheesecake Factory is much better. I guess it's what to be expected from brewery. My order was also wrong and instead correcting their errors they just added additional items. read more

Update to my previous post. Manager called and provided a gift card to reimburse. Thanks for the quick follow up BJ's!

Good food and lots of Gluten free options. The gluten free buns were good as well as the rest of the food. Service was awesome

Had an 8:30 reservation for a very big party (20+), showed up early and they decided to give our tables away. Left and had a much better experience at Bostons. read more

Average at very best. Menu items/descriptions and pricing suggest upscale, but marginal at best. Out of the many items we all tasted, nothing was better than an average chain restaurant and that is whatever they were not out of, including their own brewed beers. They did make sure to upcharge me however for all the substitutions. My recommendation is don't waste your time or your money unless you are desperate for an expensive and below average place to eat and/or drink. Was hoping for much more, but the reviews don't lie unfortunately. read more

Lesson learned: Don't ignore red flags. 1. Poorly rated on Yelp. 2. Dead on an MSU basketball home game. 3. High-top area "closed" for some reason. Sat at bar. Worst service I've experienced in a long time. Actively ignored. Bartenders clearly weren't happy and did everything but but acknowledge us. Expensive beers. Had one and had to GTFO. This place will not be open in 6 months, guaranteed. read more

My family celebrated January birthdays on Saturday, January 20, 2024. We had the most wonderful time at B.J.'s in Lansing, Michigan at Eastwood Town Center!! First, our server Beth was outstanding!!! She was personable, professional, listening carefully to our requests and was completely accurate. Server Beth made us feel so special and made our visit just super! The food was amazing and tasted sooooo good!! There are t.v.'s to catch sports, a little music (It was not too loud!), and just an enjoyable ambiance. I will definitely recommend B.J.'s on Lake Lansing Road. Thank you so much!!! read more

First experience at this restaurant. Food and service were terrible. Went Monday @ approximately 8pm. It wasn't busy. We ordered an avocado roll appetizer, they were not good and looked disgusting. As well as Two tomatoe and mozzarella salads and pizza. Tried to order the Ahi Tuna appetizer. They were out. We did get the avocado rolls. Yuck! After an hour waiting for the rest of the food we asked for our bill and left. Would never recommend or go back. read more

Have been there twice now. I think they are still in the "perfecting" mode as they are brand new here. First time service was uneducated, had a hard time answering simple menu questions and we waited 1.5 hrs for our food. But that time, the food wasn't bad. Went back tonight and the food was not good. Found out they pre-cook their steak and pork chop... my steak was closer to corn beef would definitely not order this again. Drinks and atmosphere are the best part read more

Food quality, just didn't taste good. Ate at the bar and also didn't get good service.

Food is really bad, ive been there twice this week first onn 3/5/22 and again 3/11/22, first time the meat in the burger was tasteless, fries were cold, when we told the server she brought us a another batch of fries that were indeed hot but soggy and nauseating as heck probably triple fried in oil. Second experience i ordered a steak and was terrible- cold, very chewy and the side of vegetables were a joke. Wife ordered fettuccine alfredo which had a watery and tasteless sauce. Our friends ordered a mushroom swiss burger which had no taste to it whatsoever, you'll get better tasting burgers off the McDonalds dollar menu The manager should be fired as all they do is post these stuiped apologetic comments and do nothing about their kitchen staff. Watch them post some generic dumb apologetic response to this post and do nothing about their terrible food processing. read more

I have been to BJs 3x now over two months and the service and food has been outstanding. This has become my go to place in Lansing when I come for work. I get the tomatoes and mozzarella salad which is amazing. The Mediterranean chicken tacos are great as is the barbocoa chicken. Service has been excellent to! read more

Friendly staff, fantastic waitress, great food! My new favorite place to eat. What more can one ask for?
