We have been here several times and the food has always just been ok. Last night I had a flatbread with cheese and mushrooms. While it had good flavor, it was a bit dry and was served too cold. Because we were with another couple, I didn't want to make a big deal about it. The others enjoyed their meals, protein bowl with shrimp, bacon ranch pizza with chicken and grilled shrimp. The service was ok. read more

We're longtime customers. Have been coming since BJ's opened many years ago. Came yesterday to enjoy the $13 special that includes a small pizookie! The food was great, as usual. What was exceptional was the service! Lorree immediately greeted us and moved everything along efficiently. Even anticipated when we need anything like more water and boxes for leftovers. Came by to place our pizookie order so it would come out when we were just done eating. Best service we've ever had at BJ's! Thank you, Lorree! read more

I can't say enough great things about Sonia--she is truly AMAZING. From the moment we walked in, she was incredibly friendly, bubbly, and welcoming. You can immediately tell she genuinely enjoys what she does, and that energy makes such a difference. We've actually gone back twice just to see her, and both times she was just as consistent, attentive, and kind. What really stood out to me is how much she pays attention--she took the time to get to know our niece and even checked in on us in such a thoughtful way. That level of care is rare these days and made us feel genuinely valued. On top of all that, she's absolutely beautiful inside and out, and her positive attitude just lights up the whole experience. Compared to other places where service can feel rushed or impersonal, Sonia made us feel like we mattered. Honestly, I would come back again just for her. Thank you so much, Sonia--you are truly one of a kind! read more

This location was busy and loud. We were seated quickly, but it did take a long while to get our orders in and for our food to come out. They also left the long party table next to us dirty for at least an hour before the next party came in. It felt somewhat dirty, though I wasn't sure if this was a one-off. I got their Brewhouse Bowl, which was extremely healthy and filling! We were told the item dropped this year, and after eating my portion, I decided I will likely get it again the next time I dine at BJ's. There was a lot of veggies and protein, which was perfect for what I wanted. Their pizookie trio sampler was wonderful and came out fresh out of the oven. You get to pick your trio flavors, and my personal favorite was the sea salt caramel one, which was the least sweet out of the three we picked (we got the fudge and oreo one for the others). Overall, this location wasn't awful, but I think they can improve on their service and timeliness. The food was decent and you can never go wrong with a pizookie. read more

Maybe I'm performing an injustice rounding down for what I really regard as a 3.5. After all, the food was pretty good and the industrial chic sports bar decor is attractive. As chains go, this one really isn't bad, but it still exudes "chain." It was noisy early on a Saturday night and felt just a little too cramped in a big space. The menu is extensive, but they were out of the Prosecco I initially ordered. Another order at our table went awry as the Prime Rib French Dip sandwich was requested, but somehow the waiter only heard "Prime Rib" and placed an order for the full dinner, leading to much confusion. Ultimately, the service was probably the biggest let-down. Our server seemed over-the-top friendly and enthusiastic to start, but was extremely inefficient despite running all over the place too quickly to catch. He kept running over to say he would be taking care of something -- bringing water perhaps -- without waiting to see if we were ready for drinks, appetizers, or anything else. Ultimately he was hard to catch with all his running around and our meal seemed to drag out in the noisy space. I did enjoy my Seared Ahi Tuna Salad and my husband enjoyed his Hickory Smoked Brisket Burger and Fries. We also devoured our Triple Chocolate Ghirardelli Pizookie which my husband ordered on a whim. This was very rich, decadent, and YUM. I'd order the same items in future without hesitation if we return, as I'm sure we will someday. However, the experience wasn't at all special enough to really look forward to that much (and thus the 3-stars). read more

My service was so amazing by the bjs team! Shoutout to Jessica and Yvette for being such a amazing bartenders :) I will be coming back:)

Unfortunately service did not deliver during our latest visit! Stopped by after the Dodgers vs A's game and was hoping for a nice dinner. It being a Saturday night the place wasn't ridiculously full. We were seated in a corner booth and probably 10 minutes went by without anyone acknowledging us. Finally Tom came by and said he wasn't sure where our server was but would take our order for drinks and appetizers. The appetizer finally came out only for us to realize we were seated without any cutlery. Kuddos to Tom for trying his best to cover our table although it wasn't his responsibility! Our server was finally found but service did not improve. We had to ask for water refills from a different server. Hoping this was just a bad night for the place! read more

Johnny, Johnny - you were fabulous! We enjoyed the appetizers and Thursday specials but what made this restaurant experience worth mentioning was the waiter! Johnny was great! He was speedy, got everything right, and he checked on us often! And that is even with a very full bar area! Wow! We had a great time! We loved the queso, the artichoke dip, and the soup and salad as well as the ribs. Go before 7 during happy hour and on a Thursday and have your pick of what you want to eat! Daily specials are listed. Thanks again, Johnny! You're a great waiter! read more

Service is horrible, did not even get to order. My wife and I were out shopping and thought we would try BJs since we have not been there in almost a year. Being Saturday night we knew there would be a wait. We were told the wait was 15-20 mins but after 35 mins and seeing other groups getting seated that came after us my wife went to ask when we would be able to get seated. After some complaining they did seat us. The complaining about being passed on the seating list obviously got us marked cause the waitress never came by to say hi, take our order, bring us water or anything else. The waitress did stop at all the other tables though in the area near us. After waiting thirty minutes at the table with no service at all we walked out. read more

First timer at BJs and I enjoyed my crispy sandwich so much!!!! They were advertising this shrimp in a bowl and it looks more on the cooked side than the way it was made.. we sent that back. It was not good at all 0/10 The service was veryyyyyy slow and there wasn't a lot of people there. Overall it was pretty good and the bartender was helpful read more

We went to BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse because we wanted to try the $13 Pizookie meal deal. We went around 6pm on a Friday and we were seated right away. Our server was very friendly and the ambience was really nice. It was busy but the service was fast. I ordered the Italian chicken parmigiana and my husband ordered the southern fried chicken. The food was hot and delicious. The meal came with delicious mini pizookies. I had the strawberry shortcake & my husband had the brownie pizookie. It was a relaxing dinner. We also tried their sweet sin chocolate porter (beer plus Ghirardelli chocolate) with our pizookies , it tasted good with the pizookies but not by itself. We will go back again, I want to try the BJ's Sweet Sin Chocolate Porter with their Graham Cracker S'mores Pizookie. read more

We got seated (group of 5) and after 20 min we never got offered water. They never came to us. A group of 10 people walked in and got seated and they got offer water and drinks right away. We found that very unpleasant. We ended up leaving because we waited too long. read more

The wait isn't usually too long to get in on a weekend. It is a decent place for a bar+restuarant. The booths are made for skinny people. For anyone with extra it is a tight squeeze and was uncomfortable after awhile. There were few tables, so apparently large folks are not encouraged to come...the whole place is full of these tight booths and to fix would be a major reno. Any, the burger I had was ok. Nothing special. The 3 course meal was not that great, in general. Like the burger, pretty bland. I will say that they actually did do extra crispy fries! I will come back for that and the clam chowder, for sure. read more

This place is a hit or miss. The first time I went here, I got other items like their nachos, but those were too salty for me. This was my second time here which was better. They sell items ranging from soups, salads, pizzas, pastas, sandwiches, and a bunch of other items too, but some items are too salty. I went here for dinner on a Saturday around 10pm and there was no wait! Ok, so this place is known for their "Pizookie" desserts which is basically like a huge cookie. My friend and I didn't end up getting that, but the people around us did. We got the Deep Dish Ziti and the California Club Chicken Sandwich w/ Fries. The pasta I got is so cheesy and was covered in baked cheese and I loved that about the pasta dish! I even got a cheese pull from that pasta dish too! I tried the sandwich too and it had a huge chunk of chicken which went well with the avocado they added inside, but I usually prefer smaller pieces of chicken for my sandwiches. I'd recommend this place! All the food was good and they're open late too! Since this was my second time visiting this location, I had a better experience that my first. The food I got during my second visit wasn't too salty so that's a plus! read more

Nachos took longer than I expected to come out, about 15 minutes. They could have been more loaded. But they were warm and had cheese that tasted pretty real, not like canned processed stuff. Overall, it's hard to mess up nachos, and they didn't, so that's something. The pizookie was indulgent as expected, a warm cookie with cold ice cream. Epic dessert. BJ's never goes wrong. I wouldn't call the food quality stellar, but it's what you'd expect, and the presentation and ambiance make up for it, in my opinion. read more

Went here for my friends birthday. The food was so blah. Fries were good and my son's pizza was ok. But the spinach dip was disgusting so much we probably should have said something but didn't want to bother. The chicken was cold the sliders were bland we're supposed to have onion but the little dried bits were flavorless. They also had so little lettuce. We didn't even finish them. I was there about 4 yrs prior and remember it being pretty good. I will definitely think twice before returning. read more

I had an issue with my order here but Emily was very helpful in fixing everything! Amazing service!

The food was delicious and the waiters were very hospitable and offered lots of refills on my meals, I would like to call out these two specific employees that served my family, Katie Z and Jared. And the restaurant had a very good vibe and gave a very happy mood to the family during our lunch. A meal I would recommend is the BJ's favorite pizza, it was by far my favorite meal in the restaurant. read more

BJ's is your typical American dine-in restaurant, similar to Applebee's, Olive Garden, etc. Nothing particularly sets BJ's apart from its competing restaurants, except maybe their pizookies, but that dessert itself is not as special as they market it to be. I ordered the Chicken Alfredo, and it was alright. Compared to the pictures I see on Yelp, the Alfredo I received really lacked sauce. It was a bit dry and lacked seasoning. Customer service was on-point, though. The server was quick with our orders and was friendly--never really had any complaints about their service. read more

Incredibly rude service. We reserved a table and got there on time but the server said to wait 15 min. We waited a whole hour afterwards! Unbelievable because we kept asking and they kept pushing back the time. Once we got seated it took another hour just to get our food. The server also never came back to check on us after ordering. The food itself came out cold and didn't taste good, it was like school lunch quality. Never coming back here again read more

I had the most horrible experience this morning at this BJs location. I placed an order at 10:20am for an 11:00 am pickup time. At 10:35am, my order was confirmed. The status also indicated "preparing order" at that time. By 10:50 am, my takeout order changed to "packaging order". I decided to drive over to BJs, and I checked in at 11:05am. I was told my food should be out in 10 minutes. I patiently waited and noticed there were 0 customers at this time. About 5 minutes later, 2 customers walked in and placed their order. As more minutes passed, I saw their salad and entree was brought out to them. Finally after waiting 30 minutes, I requested to cancel my lunch order. All of a sudden, my food was ready and given to me. The large pizza had lots of cheese and pepper packets thrown inside the box. This made the pizza very disgusting, since the packets were stuck to the slices. It would be better for these cheese and red pepper packets to be placed inside the takeout bag. My kids drink were placed in a cup holder that was not built correctly, and the drinks slipped out from the bottom. I've always had a pickup order at 11am in the past, and the food was always ready at that time. I highly don't recommend this BJs. The food is not guaranteed at the pick up time. Since there was 0 customers, there is no valid reason for my takeout order to take 35 minutes past the promised time. read more

We had a big holiday party here with about 40 people with buffet style. I was thankful they could accommodate us and a big group. You choose what you want ahead of time which made things easy and they were very attentive. It was an easy location for people as well because it was right off the freeway! Definitely will come here again! read more

I come here sometimes and usually the food here is good. Today, I have Mahi-Mahi Tacos. They taste really good just like other foods I had so far in this restaurant. Waiting times can be long especially at night since most tables have been reserved or filled. It could take between 30-60 minutes for us to get seated, but it's much faster for the staff to serve us food. The atmosphere is great because they have a good-looking bar at the edge of this restaurant with multiple TVs surrounding this place. read more

Arrived close to 9 p.m. and had to wait for a table, though there were quite a few empty ones inside. Fortunately, the wait was only about ten minutes. The first server wasn't very attentive; we wanted to add an extra dish, but they were hard to find, so we eventually gave up on it. After a shift change, the second server was much better. The deep-dish pizza was underwhelming; the crust seemed undercooked and a bit chewy. The ziti was essentially meat sauce pasta, which the little one loved. We tried the signature pizookie with strawberry flavor--it's like a cookie in pizza form, quite sweet, making the ice cream on top taste less sweet by comparison. The $9.59 size is just right for 3-4 people to share. The beer was good! I randomly picked one with 4.7% ABV, and it was refreshing and easy to drink. The garlic shrimp with parmesan toast was the family's favorite dish. This place is great for watching sports and enjoying some drinks. read more

Food was excellent, came quickly. I appreciate that the kids food came first- which usually doesn't ever happen in other restaurants. Service was fantastic! Our server Kally was super attentive. She took our order promptly, made excellent recommendations (the kids were happy with their mocktails), asked us about condiments we wanted (we never had to ask her for something, she made sure to check with us first so we didn't have to seek someone later), checked in on us periodically, was so kind and friendly to my kids, and made sure we got everything we needed when we closed out our check. Kally offered us the seasonal pizookie (S'mores) and the timing was perfect, it came right after we finished our meal. Ambiance during weekend day time was relaxed, perfect for families. Busser with long hair (Austin) was also attentive and he helped with clearing our plates when he noticed we were done with our meals. He was super friendly and I liked how he would also clear other tables attentively- which is important to adding to the nice ambiance of the restaurant! I highly recommend BJs as a place to take your kids. Ask for server Kally, she was so sweet to my kids and made their dining experience phenomenal. read more

BJs is a national chain restaurant/brewery. The menu features mostly traditional American cuisine, typically with something a little different. Service is always excellent. I like the wings (bone in) and all of the entrees I've tried. One of their specialties is the "pizookie" dessert, which is a large, freshly baked cookie with ice cream. There are many cookie flavors to choose from. They have other desserts, but I can't recall trying any of them. They offer lots of custom beer options, along with some other branded brews. They have a full cocktail bar and have house brewed sodas (root beer, vanilla creme, black cherry and orange creme). read more

Service: Pathetic. We (a group of 5) walked in on a Wednesday evening. The place looked packed as half the seating are was not in service. We were made to wait for over 30 mins even though there were at least a couple of tables in the seating area that was in service. The waiters just ignored us and refused to even answer us when we asked them what's going on. And finally, after we got seated, they took forever to take our orders. Sticky tables. Decent food and quantity. read more
