I would like to give a big shout out to the manager and our waitress Taylor at the Temecula BJ's restaurant. Talk about above and beyond customer service Taylor tended to our every need. It made a lasting impression on our family. The manager of the restaurant is kind and cordial. We will definitely be coming back again and again to this location. I just wanna give a big thank you to everyone, especially Taylor you made our afternoon. Thank you. read more

Great experience; typical for most of my visits to BJ's. A coworker and I were working in the area when he suggested another place. I said we should come here and when we sat at the bar to watch the FIFA game, he was looking at the menu for something healthy, I suggested the Strawberry Fields salad on the $13 meal specials. He chose the Mediterranean Bowl with Salmon instead of chicken. They did it for a small upcharge. He was super happy and said he has to go to his local place more often. Elise suggested I try the chicken on my Strawberry fields salad blackened and it was sooo good. The service at the bar was fantastic and I always enjoy the common BJ's look, especially at the bar with the big TV's. read more

First encounter we were not asked booth or table but the people right after us was asked that question. We were sat and waited about 10 minutes before or server Jaime said hi People that got sat after us were already having drinks and there orders taking. We had nothing Jaime introduced him self I don't if he was having a bad day or whatever, but he had no smile he was just making our experience horrible, Our main entree came out before our appetizer not to sure why Chicken club was great! Fries decent Burger sampler was pretty good too The experience would have gone a lot better if Jaime acted like he wanted to be there Icing on the cake we were finishing up our drinks he comes by ask if we are ok and then snatches the recipet from right in front of me, I haven't even left a tip yet, at that point I didn't even want to tip, but I did a standard 15% Hopfully Jaime feels better but how they treat great fully affects our experience Decent food great beer I would still come back again :) read more

We recently hosted a wedding rehearsal lunch at BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse, and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish! My clients were looking for a venue that could comfortably accommodate a larger group while still being budget friendly, and BJ's exceeded our expectations. The buffet was delicious with plenty of variety, and all of the guests really enjoyed the meal. The staff and manager were incredibly friendly, attentive, and made sure everything ran smoothly, allowing everyone to simply relax and celebrate before the big day. One of the biggest advantages was how affordable it was without sacrificing quality or service. It was also conveniently located close to the wedding venue, which made the day even easier for everyone. I would absolutely recommend BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse to other couples looking for an affordable, delicious, and stress-free rehearsal lunch or pre-wedding celebration. Thank you for helping make my clients' wedding weekend so special! read more

Food is ok. A bit salty. The salmon with lemon butter , one side is good the other side with the sauce is not. It tasted funky. My daughter tried it , and she had to spit it out. I told my husband to tell the server but he does not want the hustle. The avocado roll is not as good as I remember it. It is a little bit overtired. Place is nice. Server is good. It will be awhile before I come back. read more

Thanks for sending me home with a pazookie for my pregnant daughter that wasn't cooked all the way. Completely doughy the whole inside. Nothing like hearing the wrath of a pregnant women who's craving was crushed! read more

My husband and I came here the other night for a very late dinner. It was quite busy due to graduations happening in the area. Our server with Sammy and her customer service was excellent. She took her time to engage with the customers. She was serving very friendly and checked on us. Often the food was great. We had a margarita pizza and some wings. We really enjoyed the pizza and we ordered it with extra basil as our server suggested doing. I also ordered the Dubai espresso martini, which was delicious! For dessert we had the Biscoff Pizookie that was out of this world! If you enjoy Biscoff cookies you must give this pizookie a try! I think I will go back just to have the dessert again before they take it off the menu! read more

I really wanted to like this experience, and I know without a doubt it could have been better. We were seated at a table with Michael, and you know that awkward feeling when you feel like you're bothering someone? That's exactly how my family and I felt. We even talked about it after dinner, and I wasn't the only one who picked up on that vibe. We received our drinks and were asked if we wanted to start with anything, so we ordered two appetizers--but not before asking a few questions about the menu. He didn't seem very interested in explaining anything and simply responded with "yeah, it's good." When a customer asks what's popular, that's the perfect opportunity for a server to showcase their knowledge and help guide the experience. It's not about blame if someone doesn't like a dish--it's about making sure they feel informed and confident in their choice. Instead, we felt rushed and not really cared for. After putting the order in, he came back to ask if we were ready to order our mains. We had a few more questions, especially about the pizzas, and ultimately decided on the barbecue chicken pizza. Some time passed, and our appetizers finally arrived--but we had no small plates, utensils, or napkins. We looked around for him and couldn't find him, and since the other servers nearby were busy, I ended up walking across the restaurant just to get what we needed. Things became more noticeable as we finished our food and sat there for a while with empty glasses. Once we were ready to pay, there was a QR code on the table, and as soon as he noticed we were about to check out, he came over with a water pitcher to refill our glasses and made small talk. It would've been nice to have that level of attentiveness while we were actually eating (which did once at the beginning when our food came to our table). Waiting until the very end didn't feel genuine. I'm not sure I would visit this location again. I haven't been to a BJ's in years--about 12, back when I lived in the Midwest--so this felt like a fresh experience for me. Honestly, I'd rate it two stars as a new customer, mainly due to the service. On a positive note, the food did come out hot. The chicken nachos were the standout appetizer, and the sampler was just okay. The barbecue chicken pizza, however, wasn't my favorite--I wouldn't order it again. The crust tasted like it may have been beer-based, which didn't pair well with the barbecue sauce. It might've worked better with a traditional marinara, but I gave something new a try, and that's what matters. If you're in the area, it might be worth stopping by for the food alone, but when it comes to customer service, there's definitely room for improvement. read more

I haven't reviewed BJ's in a very long time because I haven't been back and in a very long time. I went back today and got the lunch special of all you can eat soup and salad. I was with a big group and I have to say that our server was exceptional. There were 12 of us and she handled it like a trooper! I should have asked for her name so that I could give her a personal mention. The service was amazing and the food came out nice and hot. I didn't care for the chicken tortilla soup so I opted to get the chili in place of the soup that I couldn't eat. Chili was good with a noticeable beer flavor. The salads were great. I had a caesar and then I had the tomato mozzarella salad. Both were delicious but the tomato mozzarella salad was over the top. It was simple and flavorful with bocconcini, diced tomatoes and arugula with a balsamic vinegar dressing. Everybody enjoyed the clam chowder. The pizza's looked really good. One person in our group needs to be gluten-free and her pizza came out twice the size of a regular personal pizza! It was very impressive. One person shared her fries with me and they were very good. Based on the service alone I will start going back here. I would really like to just order some appetizers next time and share. I remember how good the avocado egg rolls were. read more

Everyone was fantastic today. From the hostess to the bussers not one person was off. Our server Julian was amazing and took care of things before we needed them. The food was perfect too. The prime rib crust 10/10. No notes. When we asked them to turn on the sound so we could listen while we watch the world cup in the bar they took care of that too. This was the perfect Friday happy hour. read more

Had an amazing time celebrating friends'birthdays at BJs during the World Cup Finals. Despite it being packed and having a lot of large parties our server was so good and helpful! Especially with managing the checks, which is sometimes difficult for a large party. The Sampler was so good and I was really surprised how good the sliders were. I usually order it for the Spinach Dip and it didn't disappoint. The lemon drop was good too! read more

Most of the food was reasonable, but the prime rib was really bad. It looked brown, even though it wasn't overcooked. I think they cook it sous vide style, so it looked like it was just boiled lacked flavor and color. On the way out I told the host is that all she said is sorry read more

My gf and I want in the bar for HH on a Tuesday Aug 11th. It was probably the worst time yet. Young guy waited on us. Very nice. Just did a horrible job. Took 20 to 30 minutes for the food. It was cold when it came out. I mentioned this to him. He said the cooks just put it up which I told him was nonsense. He asked us to if we wanted them redo it, but that would've taken another 20 to 30 minutes so I said no he did give us a cookie. We won't be coming back to the place anytime soon. It really gets me when he stated that the cooks just put the food up. Does he think I'm stupid or something I worked in the restaurant business for many many years. For some reason, they don't hire competent people there. read more

BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse has a great $13 Pizookie Meal Deal available Monday through Friday, and everything on the menu is delicious! Our waiter, Diego, was exceptional.

Thank you, Diego, for making our visit so pleasant. We look forward to coming back! read more

Went in today for lunch to celebrate our anniversary and our waitress was the sweetest! We got seated almost immediately during the peak lunch hour and our food was relatively quick. The manager brought out my husband's meal which they accidentally did shrimp tacos instead of the mahi mahi. He told us not to worry, they would take care of it. They ended up comping both taco meals and giving us a to go box. I had the spicy peanut soba noodles with very dry chicken, while the flavor was on point, the dish was a kid's portion and not worth $20 at all, so I know not to order that one again. The s'mores pizookie was the perfect ending to our meal. P.S. The fish tacos trump the shrimp ones. The shrimp ones came with 4 tiny pieces of shrimp per taco while the grilled and battered mahi mahi were HUGE pieces of very yummy fish! read more

I have always loved this place! Not sure why it has such low reviews. People like to complain about food and all that, but I always see people come here! Its nicely decorated inside and its always clean. I love the feel of this place. They have excellent appetizers. I especially love their calamari! I loved their avocado eggrolls! Idk if they still have this stuff still. Their pizza is also excellent. Its thinner than some places and my son loves it! You can even build your own pizzas. You can actually customize most of everything from your burgers to your steak meals. Its just a place id go to that I know will taste good and is affordable. read more

Rating based on our ridiculous and overwhelming dissatisfaction with our reservation Friday night (5/8/26) with their "host/hostess desk." We had an Open Table reservation for 7 at 9:15pm, didn't get seated until 10:00pm! Checked numerous times and attitude & demeanor of young high school/college aged female employees was off-putting. Not only that, silverware rolled in black napkins had fallen on the floor, and one of the female workers picked the fallen forks & knife up and re-rolled it nicely in the napkin and my wife pointed this out to hostesses. They claimed that they weren't going to place it back to be given to a customer. Buy why would you re-roll it neatly if you're going to place them with the dirty utensils. We felt it would've been re-used had we not said anything to them. Honestly, we don't think it makes any difference making a reservation here versus walking in without one as we waited 45 minutes for a table. We almost regretted dining here as 6 of us were driving back to San Diego afterwards, and 1 of us was driving back to South Pasadena. Now the positive. Our server, night manager, and food ordered made up for the evening. The boneless wings ordered was served cold, but it was re-done and served hot like it should have been. The manager had comp'd a free large pizookie dessert for the inconvenience. The other food ($13 pizookie deep dish pizza & salad combos) and a shrimp entree, and their avocado egg rolls were very good and well priced! We don't know if we'll ever come back here, we may try other alternatives for late night dining, especially if they can't get their reservation logistics and hostess customer service in order! They're in great need to being re-trained and told they need to place themselves in the shoes of their patrons. How would they want their family members treated if they were dining at BJ's? Anyway, huge kudos to our server and the manager who salvaged what would've been one star review scores across the board. read more

Ive never eaten here before. I came because I wanted the gluten free pizookie. The pizookie was by far the highlight and easily an 8-9/10, but everything else was a huge disappointment. The baked potato was decent but the burger was terrible. It came super undercooked. This is not medium well. Unfortunately I was the first one to take a bite of my burger and im severely immunocompromised so now I have anxiety. We all stuck our burgers back in the oven to cook longer. I sure hope I dont get food poisoning but if I do ill be back to update to 1/5 read more

BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse - Undercooked burger - New American Near Me - Temecula, California

Our server was friendly, attentive, and provided excellent service, so this review is not a reflection of the staff. Unfortunately, the Thursday tri-tip lunch special I ordered for $19.99 was extremely disappointing. While everyone else in my group enjoyed their meals, mine was the complete opposite. The tri-tip was badly overcooked, dry, and tough. The asparagus was so overcooked, dried out, and stringy that it was completely inedible. I've eaten at BJ's before and have had much better experiences, which made this meal even more surprising. I've already contacted BJ's through their website because I hope this was simply a one-time issue with the kitchen. I hope management addresses the food quality so future customers don't have the same experience. read more

First time in location and I would definitely a different and a better experience from many other Bj's, amazing space, it reminds of many beautiful era's from the past, love the spacious seating, food I had a chicken sandwich and it was on point, very delicious, staff are amazing specially the host today Friday around 12:50, other staff could be more friendly, more cheerful but I'm not here to judge we all have our good and bad days. read more

My husband and I come here pretty frequently and it is a hit or miss but we keep coming back because the food is generally good. Sometimes the fries come out cold or hot but stale. If you let your server know, they'll apology and get you a fresh batch. When they're hot and fresh they're great. We usually sit at the bar and they seem to have somewhat high turnover there. We used to have the same servers all the time and service was great but lately service is really lacking. Empty glasses. Server no where to be found. Super slow to come around and see if we need anything even though they are not busy. We typically go mid-week non-happy hour. We might get better service at a regular table but we do like to sit at the bar and just grab an open booth. They have some tall tables at the bar too. They usually televise a few different channels. read more

I usually love BJ's, but this location is a big disappointment. There's always a long wait just to be seated, and unfortunately the service doesn't make up for it. The servers weren't friendly, and the overall experience felt rushed but still somehow slow. I ordered the Smash Burger, and it came out with barely any meat on it. When I asked about it, I was told it only comes with 3 ounces which explains a lot, but still doesn't justify the price or the presentation. On top of that, the food took a long time to arrive. What really sealed it for me was the lack of effort to make things right. The manager didn't offer any discount or gesture of goodwill. For a place I usually enjoy, this location just doesn't measure up. read more

I came in on a Tuesday night with my family to have a pazookie , because it's $5 pazookie night. We were greeted by the waitress and she was amazing being that it was packed with a bunch of high schoolers that were also there for pazookie night. My complaint is that my pazookie was nothing like the photo. The quality control should have been better knowing that people would be there to get a pazookie on the specific night, and if you're not able to provide what is shown then say it's not available. I provided a photo so that you could see what I got vs what it's supposed to be read more

I don't leave reviews often but I have to given my experience. I have celiac and eating out is often filled with anxiety. Raymond was our server and he was amazing! Super knowledgeable with celiac and cross contamination. He took the time to explain and also went above and beyond to make sure the food was safe for me to eat. I really hope his manager sees this and gives acknowledgement to where it is deserved. Although the place was very clean, there was a bug in our booth and another server was very understanding and acknowledged our discomfort and moved us to another booth. Even the manager came and spoke to us. Given how everything was handled we will definitely be back. read more

The hot chicken sandwich is overpriced for what you get and it's not as good as the Burger King and McDonald's options. The side of coleslaw tasted good but so small, was literally finished in three and a half bites. The steak salad, the meat was so tough and rubbery you literally could not chew through it. We returned it and were given a second meal that was better but still lacked good quality. To the positive - the beer and cocktails were good and our server was great (kudos to her). Unfortunately, those two positives are not enough to warrant us returning anytime soon. read more

Another great experience at BJ's. The kids brought me here for my birthday and the place was busy as it could be. The place was filled with happy customers and it was well lit. The food, let me tell you about the food. Our server Kris (Kristen) was awesome. She was on the ball, polite and you could tell she was genuine. I ordered the smash burger off the weekly deal. You get a lot of food for the price. The kids started off with the pretzel and beer cheese. Then the hickory brisket and bacon burger, and the Korean sticky ribs and a Caesar salad. Topped with a couple Monday $6 margaritas. To end the night, a salted caramel Pizookie. Definitely recommend going for sure. read more

4 out of 5 plates were cold! One of the sandwiches was burnt so bad you couldn't bite into it. The fries were terribly cold and did not taste fresh. The chicken in the pasta was chewy plus the pasta was cold. Super disappointed!! It was later in the evening so the restaurant was not busy at all. There is no excuse for the terribly cold food. Our server didn't come back in time to even ask how it was. The manager comped one meal. Not even the most expensive one as he should have. He didn't even take the time to apologize. Sent the server back to do his job. Terrible food and service!!! read more

We came for the viral $13 pizookie meal. The dirrrrty front doors should have been sufficient red flag... but we continued. Asked about getting a virgin version of an alcoholic drink and was told "yeah, I can't do that," in a stern way. Ok, no problem. We were trying to order and asked normal questions and shed get irritated. Example, I said "oh they don't show the pizookie option the pizookie meal deal page, so where is it?" And she's like "ergh! It's in there's somewhere!" Same cranky attitude when my husband asked about sides we could swap on burger. She left empty plates on our table even tho she' brought us other food.. We still always said thank you whenever she'd come by. She wouldn't say anything back.... Food came and it was mehhh. Spaghetti tasted like canned spaghetti. I overheard someone behind us complaining to the same server about a nasty piece of food, and right after found what looked like a piece of bamboo splinter in the burger ‍ ..I pulled it out but didn't want a big deal because next thing you know I'm hearing someone crying their heart out and it's our server with 2 other servers at the serving station . She's pointing and complaining about a few tables giving her a hard time.. (not us).. honestly don't know if she was having a bad day or what, but i genuinely believe even if food is mehhh a server can make the experience better and she did not it actually made it all more awkward and unappealing . The fact that she was already giving attitude when we got there was because of someone else and she still kept that energy with us... not really a good vibe there.Won't be back. read more

The place was filthy. They showed us to a table with chairs not pushed in, sticky table, trash and rags everywhere all over the floor. The restrooms not cared for.

What a wonderful night, I came with my mother and our family friends and we had so many wonderful things to say about the food, but most importantly the service and hospitality of our server, Mariana.

Today we decided to treat our family to dinner at BJ's. Even though we had a disappointing experience in the past, we wanted to give them another chance. We were seated within a couple of minutes, which was great, but unfortunately that's where the positive experience ended. After being seated, we waited nearly 20 minutes without anyone coming to our table. Several servers walked by yet no one acknowledged us or asked if we had been helped. Our oldest child eventually went to the hostess stand to let them know that no one had come by to take our order. The hostess apologized and assured us that our server would be with us shortly. We waited another 10 minutes, and still no one came. At that point, we decided to leave. What made the experience even more frustrating was that the restaurant was not busy. There were plenty of servers walking around and standing together so there didn't seem to be any reason why our table was overlooked for over 20 minutes. We understand that restaurants can get busy and mistakes happen but being completely ignored for that long is unacceptable. Sadly, after giving BJ's another chance, this experience has convinced us that we won't be returning. read more
