To Our Guests:The amount of guests that you make a reservation for is what you will have available. Example: If you make a reservation for 4 guests and put in the notes that you need a table for 8 guests- you will not have a table for 8 guests but only for 4 guests that you made the reservation for.Seats at the bar itself are NOT able to be reserved- they are very limited and are first come first serve. If you book the bar tables on Opentable- the reservation will be for the tables in the lounge that are located behind the bar.Seats on the patio are also NOT able to be reserved. If a reservation is made and in the notes you have requested outside or patio this does not guarantee you an outside table.We look forward to seeing you soon.

Time counts at BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse. Since our humble beginnings back in 1978, we've continued to refine our brewhouse experience to make BJ's a place where you can make the most of any meal. We want BJ's to be a place where the moment you leave is the moment you plan on coming back. We pride ourselves in our craft and attention to detail. Our guests come here for our award-winning handcrafted beer. They come here for the Southern California twist we've put on the Chicago-style deep dish pizza. And they come here for our Pizookies®, our world-renowned dessert. But above all we know people come here to make their good times better. So in many ways we haven't just crafted a brand, but a mindset. And our guests are the reason for this. And it's because of them we're continually striving to make sure every moment they choose to spend with us counts. Welcome to BJ's, a restaurant with a Brewhouse soul.

We really enjoyed the Wine Whisperer. The staff was very knowledgeable about wine. Our server recommended some great selections. Our food was all good .. shishitos, whipped feta, lamb lollipops, flatbread, tacos… all were delicious. The ambience is as good as it can be .. looking out on a strip mall parking lot is hard to disguise!

The food was good and our waiter was exceptional. If I had to have one negative, which I hate to do it is that there were a lot of available tables and we were there were two of us and we were set less than a foot from a table with a family of 10 people and our chairs were almost touching and they were all of these other tables available, but we didn’t get moved But otherwise a nice afternoon.
