    Salted Caramel Mini Pizookie
    Jeff M.

    BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse (Located in Teterboro Landing Shopping Center) 21 Teterboro Landing Dr. Teterboro, NJ 07608 $13 Pizookie Meal Deal: Chicken Bacon Ranch Piadina Salted Caramel Mini Pizookie This $13 two-course meal deal is available Monday through Friday, which thankfully includes any holiday that falls on a weekday. Chicken Bacon Ranch Piadina: This sandwich was packed with chunks of chicken and chopped bacon (obviously, based on the name of this menu item) and was served on a crispy Parmesan wrap. The ranch was not smothered onto the sandwich, but was served on the side. I feel this was a better alternative because the dressing absorbs into the sandwich which compromises the texture. The presentation of the sandwich could have been better; it needed to be aligned more symmetrically. Salted Caramel Pizookie: This dessert is a variation from an original chocolate chip cookie Pizookie. Toffee, pretzel bites, and white & dark chocolate chip morsels were mixed into the warm caramel cookie. The confection was topped with a single scoop of vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce. I enjoyed it down to the last bite and craved more. Upon ordering, I did not realize only miniature pizookies are included with this weekday special, hence the name of the ad, "Pizookie Meal Deal." I found out after the fact I could have substituted a regular sized Pizookie for a $4 up charge. (Had I known, I would have upgraded in a heartbeat.) The meal was decent for the most part, but the service was outstanding. Bartender Enrique was very attentive. He kept my water glass filled. When I requested a doggie bag, he also brought me a separate cup of ranch sauce for the leftovers. Enrique was conversational and it was a pleasure being served by him. #bjsbrewhouse #pizookie #minipizookie #saltedcaramelpizookie

    Drinks were good, service was good, even for a holiday. I second guessed ordering ribs and I was right to. Took a long time to come out. Very dry, lacking sauce to the point where I asked for a side of sauce. Definitely not a fall off the bone finish. The broccoli had zero flavor and didn't seem fully cooked. The only saving grace were the cheddar mashed potatoes. I'm hoping I simply ordered the wrong meal here but it was a rough meal indeed. I'd like to give them another chance, maybe play it safe with bar favorites

    I have passed on BJ's so many times for other restaurants in the Teterboro area and not i realize what a big mistake that was!!!!! BJ's is a cool spot with a nice menu!!! They have good deals like the $13 meal deal that includes their infamous pizzoki. I got there early for a weekday lunch. Our server Sema was nice. I got the $6 house margarita and she added a flavor on the house so i ended up with a strawberry one which was really good!!!! I love a under $10 cocktail in this economy lol. We started with the sampler which included sliders, mozzarella sticks, wings and spinach dip! All so good but that Spinach dip was the star of the sampler plate lol. For my entree i got the crispy chicken sandwich and it was massive!!!! The chicken was crispy on the outside and so tender and juicy on the inside!! The broche bun was so fluffy!!! They kinda skimped me on the honey mustard but not a deal breaker lol. They also have good fries and coleslaw (im a coleslaw fan) . My hubby got the meat lovers pizza. It was loadedddd!!! Way too many onions but u can omit them. I liked how crispy their pepperoni was. It was a hefty personal pizza!!! If u love beers they have multiple on tap!! Any u can think of. Im not a beer drinker but i can appreciate it., Overall i enjoyed my meal AND got to watch the world cup games on their big screens!! I will be back!

    BJ's Classic Crispy Chicken Sandwich
    Elizabeth A.

    Came here on Friday of Memorial Day weekend and I've never seen the place more packed! Finding parking was a mission in itself. Nonetheless we got seated quickly and didn't wait long for our server to great us. The place was clean and bustling with noise from people talking and the music playing throughout the restaurant. Our server checked in on us occasionally, but was not overbearing. To start, we opted for the giant pretzel which was delicious! Theirs is a bit sweet - the pretzel itself - and the beer cheese and mustard they give you with it are both amazing. I had the sliders with cheese as my meal. I could only eat two and saved the others as leftovers. My husband enjoyed the Classic Crispy sandwich which was just as good with an IPA. Thank you for a delicious meal, BJs.

    Cookie monster pizookie

    The food was great! The service was very good. The wait for a table felt like a lifetime. We were only a party of 3 but it did take a solid 30 minutes for a table (in all honesty, way better than the estimated 1 hour wait). It was a Friday evening and it was crowded, so it was understandable that we had to wait so long for a table. The menu is extensive and has something for everyone which is really cool. I got the honey siracha brussel sprouts with white cheddar mashed potatoes and they were both delicious. The brush sprouts were perfectly cooked without being burnt. The mashed potatoes tasted better than it looked. My daughter enjoyed her Mac and cheese, very generic predictable and satisfying (exactly what kids love). The pizookie was a massive treat, the 3 of us didn't get to finish half of it. I wasn't crazy about the blue ice cream, I know it was just color but it didn't taste great. The cookie was good though. Overall a good choice!

    Boneless Wings
    George B.

    Cheap drinks, a classic mojito is around $12 and it wasn't watered down. Boneless buffalo wings is about $17 or $18 and you get a good portion with plenty to share. Also ordered the jambalaya which was around $26 and it was a decent size, and has a nice kick to it. Serivce on the other hand takes time. Maybe they were short staffed?

    Food was cold and rushed We shared a nachos that could have been hotter. Our entree's were served 10 minutes after were served the nachos. My wife had a Burger with sweet potato fries that were cold I had a wedge salad with steak, it was ok BJ's struggles with consistency Last time we were there food and service was very good. This time food and service suffered Ambiance: typical corporate atmosphere

    So I have to say, I've been to BJ's in Long Beach, CA and always had fond memories of it where the food and ambience was always great. This location in Teterboro though just kind of lets me down. The only saving grace was the waitress who was awesome. The food however was sub par. Tri tip was dry, ribs were just okay, and the 'premium' brussel sprouts were kind of tasteless. The pizzookies after were no where near as good as I can remember either.

    I discovered an excellent Happy Hour and it's at BJ's Brewhouse. It was full of happy patrons and the stools at their large bar were occupied, as well. Our Server, Natalie, did an outstanding job. Her recommendation for the mini pizza was spot on and her service was commendable. My classic Margarita was served in a large glass, was...ahem...STRONG and the thick salt rim was very much appreciated. We started with my favorite BJ's appetizer, the Honey-Sriracha Brussel Sprouts. I enjoy the crispness of each sprout and there is sufficient honey-sriracha sauce for every forkful of goodness. For the first time, I had the deep dish mini pizza. I like, that they give you options for four toppings and I chose the following: roasted peppers, mushrooms, red onions, and basil. I was thoroughly impressed with this mini pizza. It is the perfect size to satisfy one person, the edges were optimally crispy and the rest of the pizza was soft to cut, each ingredient was fresh, and it'll be my Happy Hour go-to, during future visits.

    This place used to be good ! Yea they open late but horrible horrible horrible. Waited almost 1 hour for a drink and almost another hour for a regular cheese deep dish pizza. I rather go to dominoes and get a pie. The staff looked confused. It isn't the same. We didn't even get silverware. I don't think I'll be returning here. Just got to Texas Roadhouse and you get the rolls while you wait.

    Big beer selection and awesome wings! I had two beers on draft - the Pilsner and the Amber Oasis. They will let you try beers before you commit. Bartenders are friendly and offer great recommendations.

    The food was very good. We went on Friday, the 13th and took advantage of their $13 meal. Each came with a mini pizookie - which I politely gave to the people sitting next to us. I enjoyed everything about our visit tonight. I also love the location - and enjoy watching them he airplanes outside.

    Bj's Classic Chicken Sandwich

    Updating my review - we visited today to support our town's cheer fundraiser. We arrived around 1pm on a Wednesday and were seated right away (party of 6). It was fairly quiet at first but then music came on (at a decent volume) which we loved because they played some good country songs. Our waiter was great - he was super attentive, friendly, and got all orders correct. Everything came out at a decent time. The kids all enjoyed their food. My partner was not crazy about the wings but he loves wings and has high standards. I didn't try them. He also ordered mozzarella sticks which none of us at the table liked. That was pretty disappointing. But other than that, we all liked our food. I ordered a full rack ribs with garlic seasoned vegetables and loaded mashed potatoes. The loaded mash wasn't as flavorful as I hoped but the meal overall was good. I would order that again. I signed up for the BJs rewards prior to arrival and I was able to redeem the free pizookie offer. We tried the brownie one without walnuts. It was ok. I'd probably try another next time. Overall, we are grateful that they offer fundraiser opportunities as such and we will be returning here.

We were both looking forward to dining al fresco, but it turned out to be a raining morning, so we wound up inside instead. The venue change was not all bad, as the bright dining room was surrounded by windows offering just a slightly more obscured view of Manhattan and the Hudson River. The restaurant offered either a à la carte menu or a $41 prix-fixe option, which included a choice of one brunch item and two mimosas, bellinis or bloody marys. While my friend opted to include the beverage package, I stuck with coffee and a main dish. My coffee was bold, tasty, and refilled as needed. For my entree, I selected the Bakkafrost Salmon, which arrived as a long, thin filet of pan-seared salmon served over a Japanese sweet potato hash and plated with a tomato confit and a parsnip puree. It was further garnished with a black sesame tuile and a soy garlic glaze. The salmon was a bit fishy, but the rest of the accoutrements were fantastic! I love Japanese sweet potatoes and parsnips, so it was right up my alley.

Whether one's in the mood for a cozy family dinner or a casual get-together with friends.

A reservation was easily made via OpenTable. Upon arrival as first-timers, we were greeted by the host and got a table immediately by the window inside their floor-to-ceiling dining room, evoking a relaxed yet upscale vibe. Their menu specializes in American/Mediterranean cuisine influenced by seafood, steakhouse, and pasta. For appetizers, we decided on Short Rib Crostini, Kumamoto Oysters, and Yellowin Ahi Tuna Tacos. Our main consisted of Pan-Seared Chilean Sea Bass, 7 oz Prime Cut Filet Mignon, Bangkok Roasted Duck Breast, Lenny's Lobster Pasta, Crispy Lyonnaise Potatoes, and French Butter Asparagus. We even saved room for dessert and got the Bailey's Crème Brûlée and Assorted Dessert Tasting for two. We washed them down with I Dream of Lychees Martini, Berry White Spritz, and Haven Espresso. Complimentary bread with softened butter started our meal. The food is presented like art, and the portions varied depending on what one ordered. It's a little pricey but definitely worth it and fair considering the quality. Our server, Juan, was friendly, accommodating, and took the time to answer all of our questions, which made the experience even more enjoyable. A wonderful night all around--we're already looking forward to coming back.

Our water glasses were never refilled during the meal, a bottled beer was ordered and brought but no glass was offered. After all our plates and silverware were cleared away with the appetizers, they were not replaced until after our meals were brought over. This is one of those places where your waiter takes the order, somebody else does the water, and different people bring the food. Though this is very common in a lot of restaurants it was just a bit disjointed. I may be being a bit hard on the servers but compared to other restaurants in the chain the service was a step down. There were other good things though. The value is very good. The food is definitely not overly pricy for what you get. We will try the restaurant again, hoping we were there on what was just an off night for the servers.

A few things to keep in mind if you choose to dine outdoors: since you're eating in a garden, you may encounter a few ants or mosquitoes. It wasn't overwhelming, but it's something to expect. Also, the portion sizes are on the smaller side. As for the food, I thought it was good, but I didn't love it, especially considering the price. We ordered the crab cake, burger, crème brûlée, and venison. The crab cake and crème brûlée were both beautifully presented and delicious. However, the burger was undercooked, and my date found the venison to be quite dry. Overall, this is a wonderful spot for the ambiance and experience. The setting is romantic, peaceful, and unlike many other restaurants. While I personally didn't find the food memorable enough to justify the cost, I'd still recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful evening in a truly magical garden setting.

    Update: Seems like the chef/manager is not the nicest person by the way he responds to all negative…read morereviews. Byob. They have a cute patio with a nice atmosphere. The service was great. Food, I didn't love. It seemed like they reused the same sauce across many of the dishes and courses. It felt like two of the dishes had the same slaw. Some of the food were too salty - like the fried mashed potato. Nothing was mind blowingly delicious for the price. I took a chance on the venison but then it was too gamey for me.

They do have coffee so that's a plus. And the coffee is made with a French press. Very tasty. They have a good menu. Something for everyone. We started off with the guacamole app and clam chowder. The guacamole is plentiful and tasty. Also the salsa was delish too. My table patrons didn't like the clam chowder. They said it was too salty. For the mains we ordered the roasted chicken, hot chicken sandwich and the Cajun seafood alfredo The Hot chicken was divine and huge. You won't be disappointed with that one. Good amount of spice. The roasted chicken was lemon rosemary jus was delicious as well. I ordered the pasta which was supposed to come with jumbo shrimp and andouille sausage. As soon as I received my dish I asked the waitress where the sausage was, she couldn't answer but went to get her manager. The manager said normally it's under the pasta. Still, no sausage in the pasta. They apologized and made the sausage and added it to the pasta. I wish that was the only issue. The menu states that it's a cajun Alfredo sauce and hate to say but this was just bland. Not flavorful at all. 2 waiters recommended it but I'm not sure why. I'd give it a 2.5 out of 5. The portion size was good but again no real taste. Overall this was a nice place. I just need to study the menu and read more reviews about what to order here.

    Always a pleasure to dine at Bareli's. We were four for dinner recently. The pork chop was amazing…read moreas always. There was a seafood special with squid ink pasta that everyone tried at the table and raved about it. Staff and cocktails were on "point" as usual!!

    Bareli's in Secaucus makes a fantastic first impression. The restaurant sits on a busy route with…read moreeasy access in and out, and the parking lot is large enough to accommodate many vehicles. The interior is visually impressive: elegant table linens, comfortable leather chairs, and a dining room that looks polished and upscale. When we arrived, what appeared to be the owner was greeting guests at the entrance. Since he was welcoming everyone and dressed differently from the rest of the staff, we assumed he was the owner. It was a great touch and immediately raised our expectations. Unfortunately, the experience did not fully match that first impression. We started with drinks: a glass of wine for me and an Old Fashioned for my wife. As happens too often in restaurants, the stronger drink was automatically assumed to be mine, and the drinks were delivered incorrectly. It's a small detail, but one that reflects attention--or lack of it. Bread arrived quickly, followed soon after by the food. I ordered the gnocchi with meat sauce. The dish was acceptable, but nothing extraordinary. My wife ordered the house seafood salad, which was very good--fresh, flavorful, and easily the best dish we had that night. Our waiter spoke limited English. Once he realized we also spoke his language, the service became noticeably more relaxed and somewhat overly familiar. He immediately tried to guide us toward the most expensive items on the menu. When I declined coffee after dinner, he responded by saying something along the lines of: "Well, that's your choice, but the coffee here is very good," which felt unnecessary. We also had a small issue with the Old Fashioned garnish. The orange peel looked unusual, so we asked for the drink to be replaced. The waiter did replace it, though he first tried to explain that what we thought were worms were simply marks on the fruit peel. For dessert we ordered the tiramisu, which the waiter promoted heavily as the best dessert to try. Unfortunately, it didn't deliver. Instead of the classic layered presentation, it arrived more like a cup full of cream with a few pieces of soaked bread and very little coffee flavor. The issue was not just the dessert itself, but the expectations created when it was described. Bareli's is a beautiful restaurant with a great location and atmosphere, but the service details and execution didn't quite match the level suggested by the setting.
