Bj’s Brewhouse Restaurant
Bj’s Brewhouse Restaurant is
perfect for social gatherings. It’s always a good choice for family dinners,
hosting fundraisers for: school, organizations, or charity. Even if you want to
grab a quick bite with friends it’s a good place to stop by. They have many
food servings. They’re most known for their pizza and brewery.” When I think of
this place, it is all about the pizza. In fact, I'm stuck on it. I haven't
tried anything else on the menu yet because I can't pass up the chance to have
the pizza”(Freddy Johnson).
Although this
restaurant has many good reviews not all people think the same way. A blogger
on yelp critically reviewed Bj’s as a very disappointing restaurant. Edward wrote,
“This used to be a great place but became a huge disappointment
tonight when I went in with a number of my relatives. Everyone agreed that the
pizza was on the dry side. Also the calamari was overcooked. I am not going
back”(Edward Robbinson).
The ambiance at this restaurant
is chill and really nice. Everyone is so welcoming when you walk through the
doors. Once they have your table ready, you are then escorted by the
waiter/waitress that will be attending you. Sometimes you get a good server and
sometimes you don’t. It’s hard to say good service is always expected at places
like this. The noise level in this restaurant is very average so it allows you
to socialize with family or friends. As soon as you walk into this restaurant
you get a good vibe with the surrounding.
The atmosphere is filled with
fine dining. Dining rooms are flooded with tables and booths that can
accommodate smaller or larger groups. They have varieties of sporting events on
TV, so you won’t miss a football game, baseball game, hockey game, golf, etc. Vibrant
abstract paintings fill the walls giving it a comforting touch. Conversations
and laughter fill the air along with the smells of fried food and fresh beer.
The lighting in this restaurant is very low. Above every table there is a
dimmed chandelier shining not to bright and not to dark, its just perfect. It
even has a bar in case you want to have a drink before or after your meal.
The food is so DELICIOUS! They
have all kinds of different choices, from soups and salads to appetizers to
deserts. The clam chowder soup is to die for. Order your soup in a toasted sour
dough bread bowl and it tastes even better. While eating your soup you can pick
pieces off the bread bowl and eat it along with your soup. They have sharable
appetizers. My personal favorites are the Thai shrimp lettuce wraps and the
shareable platters, which include Mozzarella sticks, avocado egg rolls, and
Santa Fe Spring rolls. The Thai shrimp lettuce wraps are “BOMB” they’re grilled
shrimp glazed with spicy Thai sauce and its all served on a hapa cabbage leaf,
with cilantro, carrots, and red onion. Just by reading this makes your mouth
water. My favorite part: Desert. The famous Bj’s Pizookie is absolutely
delicious. It’s a freshly baked, rich cookie topped with two scoops of vanilla
bean ice cream. They have varieties of cookies, so you could
definitely choose the kind you personally enjoy.
The first time I went to Bj’s was
for my birthday. My godparents took me out to dinner. I can honestly say I left
that place stuffed and very happy. And ever since then I’ve been crazy about
going to eat there. So if you’re in town and you’re looking for a nice casual
place to have lunch or dinner I recommend Bj’s Brewhouse restaurant.
