Ahi appetizer
Liz D.

Always a positive experience with friendly service and good food. This visit we enjoyed a steak wedge salad, and my husband ordered the prime rib. We often order the Ahi appetizer. It is always fresh and we enjoy it very much. The Prime Rib was excellent. Cooked to perfection, tender and very little fat, so he was really happy! My salad was fresh and served with plenty of tender sirloin. One of my favorite "go to" meals. It's a very popular place so you might want to call ahead and get your name on the list during the dinner hours.

Order of bone-in wings (dry with sauce on side)

My sister was in town for her birthday, and for a casual, fun dinner, my family met up at BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse at Desert Ridge. My father visits this location weekly, and every now and then, I'd join him for happy hour or dinner. We had a group of five of us at dinner this past Sunday. We all enjoyed tasty food including a birthday treat and good service. We had a great server (Brenda) who kept checking on us, answering questions, and when one of us randomly got an entree literally ten minutes before everyone else, she took it back to ensure we all got our meals around the same time. We ordered some salad and other appetizers along with entrees for each of us. Three of the five of us ordered the Enlightened Mediterranean Chicken Pita Tacos. I chose the chicken wings (bone-in) with sauce on the side. I also had a bit of my wife's pita taco dish. My father ordered a prime rib deal that included an appetizer and a Pizookie. Since it was my sister's birthday, they brought out two Pizookies (pizza cookies with ice cream on top) for us to share (Chocolate Chunk and Dubai Chocolate). All of the food was tasty and enjoyable! Visit the BJ's website (https://www.bjsrestaurants.com) and see their menus, catering and online ordering options, join their waitlist, read about their meal deals and daily specials, buy a gift card, and become a BJ's Premier Rewards Plus Member. In fact, you get a free Pizookie upon registration and then earn points on every dollar spent, which can be redeemed for free food and drinks. Make sure to list your birthday on the registration so that you get a free Pizookie on your birthday, too. BJ's is open daily from 11 AM to 12 Midnight except for Sundays which is 11 AM to 11 PM. Happy Hour is on weekdays from 3-7 PM and Sunday through Thursday from 9 PM to close. There is also Extended Game Day Happy Hour during Monday and Thursday night football plus all day Sunday. There are food and drink specials for $4 through $7 during Happy Hour. With such a large menu, BJ's has a bit of everything! It's a place everyone can find something to eat that they enjoy. I look forward to coming back to BJ's again soon!

I came to BJs with my family for my son's 5th birthday. I had not been here in a long time, I wanted to give them another try. I know the pizookie is a fan favorite. My son loves strawberries so I knew their strawberry shortcake would be his birthday dessert. We started with avocado eggs rolls, fried couscous mac and cheese balls and I ordered a starter caesar salad. I was a little turned off by the brown avocado in the egg rolls. They did not taste fresh. The mac and cheese balls were a hit. We enjoyed them. My lettuce in my salad wasn't very fresh either so I didn't end up eating much of it. For dinner, I ordered their atlantic salmon. I did enjoy this meal but the broccoli could use some seasoning. My husband got their slow roasted tri tip beef dip sandwich. He was not impressed, the bread was very soggy, his horseradish was missing and there were fries floating in his au jus. My oldest son ordered their classic rib eye. He is a steak lover but he kept saying there are a lot of chewy parts... meaning there was a lot of fat on the steak. The fries were good. My youngest son enjoyed his corn dogs and fries. For my son's birthday dessert we chose the strawberry shortcake pizookie. This was really yummy. We all liked it. Our server was kind and attentive. She did apologize about the long wait time for our food to come out. My salmon came out first even though I ordered after everyone else did. My kids were very hungry, the long wait time was hard for them. The manager did take off some menu items off our bill which we appreciated, thank you. I'm not sure if I'm 100% sold on wanting to eat dinner here again. I would maybe try their happy hour in the bar area and come for a pizookie.

Parmesan crusted chicken with mashed potatoes and fries
Vlad V.

I have been to BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse many times over the years. Mostly in Houston. This was my first time visiting this location in Phoenix. I stopped by on a Tuesday for dinner. They share a parking lot with a lot of other businesses including other restaurants, bars, and stores. While the parking lot was busy, I was able to find a spot a ways down. Service (5/5): On this visit, I had the best service I've experienced. I wish I remembered our waiter's name as he did a fantastic job. He was friendly, efficient, knowledgeable, and consistent. Pretty much everything you would want in a waiter. A bit surprising as this isn't fine dining. He's just excellent at his job. Ambiance (3.5/5): We sat at a hightop in the bar area. Pretty much your standard BJ's. A spacious restaurant that is broken down between a bar area and a sit-down area. It's a modern-looking restaurant and well-lit. Comfortable for a meal. Drinks (3.5/5): One of the things BJ's is known for is its beer brewed in-house (there's a nice selection). They also have a nice selection of cocktails. On this visit, I had a strawberry lemonade. It was delicious. Though a little overpriced for a non-alcoholic beverage. Food (4/5): BJ's has a huge menu. I'm talking one that closely resembles The Cheesecake Factory. It can lead to a paradox of choice. I've been here so many times that I know my way around the menu. I went with my favorite dish: the parmesan-crusted chicken which is served with a delectable sauce, sun-dried tomatoes, mashed potatoes, and broccoli. I'm not a fan of broccoli so I replaced it with fries. It's a generous portion. You get two thin but large filets of chicken. And a generous heap of fries and a scoop of mashed potatoes. I took some of it home. A bit over-priced for a chain restaurant but it's a goodie. Another thing I like about BJ's is that they have daily specials and a great happy hour/reverse happy hour. They're also known for their Pizookie's (warm skillet chocolate chip cookies served with various additions and ice cream). If you're part of their rewards program, you will get a free on during your birthday month. All in all, BJ's is one of my favorite chain restaurants.

That's a tasty dessert. Salted caramel was quite extra. Yummy.

A completely serviceable meal. I got there just in time for their weekend special 3 course meal featuring salad, prime rib, two sides and a pizookie dessert. I had the wedge salad with blue cheese, medium rare prime rib with au jus and creamy horseradish sauce, broccoli and mashed potatoes. Everything was fine. The prime rib had quite the peppery exterior. Tasted fine but this cut had an usual amount of fat. Everything else was fine too. I chose the salted caramel pizookie. It was really good and despite my best efforts not to, I cleaned that plate. Service was completely fine too. Everything came in a timely manner. A solid 4.

Classic Cheeseburger*
Olivia P.

Came for the $13 meal deal (entree + pizookie). It was a slow Monday night. Not too busy. The server didn't seem very friendly idk if she was just having an off day or what. But the service was a decent wait, I wasn't starving so I didn't mind. My burger was really good! So were the fries. I had to ask for ketchup up because they don't leave a bottle on the table. The pizookies also were a MINI, when we were thinking they were personal sized, because that's what was advertised. The music they were playing was like old 2010's bops, and a bit of it was depressing and kept making me sad. Why y'all making me emotional while I eat my French fries!!!! Good meal, but would probably stick to Chilis 3/$10 as it's a better value than this with a mini pizookie.

Not happy the manager could not be bothered to respond to my email. Before I update my Google and Yelp reviews Hello, I am writing to share a concern about an experience I had at your restaurant last Monday. My husband, my MIL, and I have been loyal customers for over six years, having lunch every Monday. We have always enjoyed both the food and the service, which is why this situation stood out so firmly to me. When I arrived, I requested to be seated in Candace's section, as I have done about 100 plus times in the past. Right away, I was told, "The section is full unless you want to sit there at the high top." I explained to the hostess, Sue, that I could not sit at a high-top table because my elderly mother-in-law is unable to have her legs dangling comfortably. Sue responded that Candice's section was complete and offered no alternative. When I asked if we could wait, I was told in a rude and condescending tone that the section was full. At that point, there were several guests behind me, and we all looked at each other in disbelief at how the situation was handled. She couldn't care less that I was left standing there shocked. Was she having a bad day? Possibly. Was she annoyed that Candice has so many regulars? Could be. Whatever the reason it was wrong and I am quite annoyed by it. What was most upsetting was that I was left standing at the hostess stand for approximately six to seven minutes while Sue walked another couple to their table and did not return. Another staff member attempted to assist us during that time, but Sue then approached while that person was trying to help, seeming annoyed. I have never experienced this level of rudeness at your restaurant before, and it was both disappointing and uncomfortable. This visit left me feeling unwelcome, which is not something I have ever felt here previously, and it honestly made me question whether I want to return. I wanted to bring this to your attention directly in hopes that it can be addressed, as I genuinely value your restaurant and would like to continue dining there with the same positive experiences I've had in the past. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I look forward to your response. Sincerely, Addie

We came for pie zookie and we got pie zookie. My wife saw pie zookies and wanted to go for dessert. We got a sampler of the original chocolate chip, the caramel, and the cookies and cream. My wife also had an espresso martini she said was very good. Service was very good and the desserts hit the spot. Nothing crazy but warm cookies and ice cream are a pretty good combo to start with! Had just a sports bar vibe to it.

Chose to visit Monday, to treat myself for my actual Birthday. The reception was overwhelming from management and staff ie; Leez and Andrew! Of course, food, drinks, service, atmosphere, music. Never disappointed

Stopped in for lunch- you can't go wrong with BJs! They had an amazing lunch deal: entree + a mini pizookie for only $13!! So nice to see good deals still happening in this crazy economy lol. Jayce M was wonderful and very attentive and nice! Great food and service

Wifey started with the strawberry salad which was very large and had a wonderful dressing. Easily could have feed two. Went with the lamb entree which was cooked to perfection.

Chunks of beet on short skewers and wrapped with a large basal leaf. The beef itself was exceptionally good. For an entree, I went with the New York strip with a side of asparagus and off the cobb corn elote. The strip was slightly overcooked, I ordered medium and it came well done. Bummer! Asparagus was very grilled and tender. We wrapped up the meal with two pieces of Flan topped with coconut. Delightful ! Restaurant is a little unusual with respect to layout but very functional.

The food was pretty good except the onion rings which were amazing! Some of the best I've ever had. The prices were a little steep but I guess that's what you pay for convenience. My favorite part of the restaurant is the patio. It's large and surrounded by native plants. So many places around here had carpets of fake plastic grass and a couple shriveled up non-native trees.
