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.

    My husband & I were thrilled when we saw construction closer to home, & it didn't disappoint. We were just there today for lunch, we have to say we loved it. The service was great, drinks & food was amazing. The hostesses & our server were very nice, & professional.

    I visit this location 1-2 times per month and we always have fantastic service and the food is great. I have 2 family members with celiac disease and this restaurant is very careful with their gluten free menu items which is incredibly important to my family. Their gf options are extensive and fabulous. They have a great team in Merrillville. 👍🏼👍🏼

    Four family members from out of state and I had dinner tonight at The Lighthouse Restaurant. The holiday spirit was alive with beautiful and festive decorations and lovely live music. The food was awesome. Four of us had steaks, three filet mignons and one top sirloin. The steaks were totally tender, cooked to perfection, the salads crisp and fresh, potatoes and vegetables tasty and cooked just right, the warm bread and butter delicious and the Grouper which the fifth person in our party had was scrumptious. Our waitress was very pleasant and patient and very attentive and helpful. We had a wonderful dining experience and I cannot wait to get back for another exceptional meal.

    As you enter the restaurant, you're welcomed by a warm atmosphere and a friendly bartender. Be sure to make a reservation in advance, as the place fills up quickly. Once seated, your attentive server greets you with a smile and shares the evening's specials while offering drinks. Feel free to ask them any questions about the menu, as they are very knowledgeable. The restaurant operates like a well-oiled machine, with each employee focused on providing excellent service. I highly recommend dining at Gamba for a delightful night out or lunch, guaranteed to offer quality food, fair prices, and an enjoyable atmosphere with friends, family, or colleagues.
