   This was our 3rd visit to BJ’s and was our last. Past experiences were the same as this one. We were greeted warmly and sat promptly. Our server arrived right away and was very pleasant. We placed our food order only to be told they were out of some items - onion rings! How are you out of those at 5:30 pm dinner? The food arrived and was below average. Not cooked as requested as well. The only positive about this meal was the greeter and server. Everything else wasn’t worth the $50 price. Never returning.

   Even though we made a reservation on this site, they do not take reservations for parties of 4

   Stopped at BJs for a drink and some appetizers. The food was very good and served very quickly. The service was the best. Highly recommend

   Maybe avoid BJ’s during the holidays? The waitress did her best but I didn’t make up for the poor quality of food.

   Thank you for sharing your experience Sheena. Sounds like we didn't provide the outstanding service we strive for this time. We'll address this with the staff and make sure it doesn't happen again. We would like to make it up to you. Please swing back by our location and personally share this experience with the manager so we can do right by you.

   Our first time here but trust me, it won’t be the last! Dane took fantastic care of us. Cocktails were great. Entrees were very tasty and large portions - chicken Alfredo, smokehouse burger with onion rings and chicken Thai pasta - yum!

   Ranelle, we’re thrilled to hear you had such a fantastic first visit! Dane appreciates the shoutout, and it’s great to know you enjoyed the cocktails and entrees. We can’t wait to welcome you back for more delicious meals and great service!

   Food was amazing. I had Sal's chicken and it was so flavorful and light. The portions are just right. My only negative was they took our dessert without asking if we were done and we still had some left.

   Hope, we’re thrilled to hear you loved Sal’s chicken! Thank you for the feedback about the dessert; we’ll make sure to improve our service. We appreciate your support and look forward to welcoming you back for more delicious meals!

   Did not know this was a chain. Unappealing at first impression. Reasonable food quality/quantity and service quality, emphasis on the latter saved the day.

   Robert, we appreciate your honest feedback. We're glad to hear that our service made a positive impact, even if the first impression didn’t meet your expectations. We're always striving to improve and hope to offer a more appealing experience next time. Thank you for sharing!

    We loved the whole experience except that the noise level of the background music prevented us from hearing parts of conversation.

    Sue, thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled you enjoyed the experience overall. We appreciate your input about the music volume and will certainly look into it to enhance our guests' conversations. Your insights help us improve!
