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.

    went here for thanksgiving dinner. seated immediately. the menu was smaller but ticked all the boxes for anyone wanting either a traditional thanksgiving turkey dinner or their more popular offerings. we opted for ribeye and chicken parmesan as our entrees and house salad and butternut squash soup as appetizers/starters. excellent service, prompt. the food was great. reasonably priced--we got out of there at around $167 before tip. would definitely return.

    For the third year, we have come here for Thanksgiving dinner. It is a generous and delicious turkey dinner with stuffing, potatoes, green beans and gravy. For one price you get this turkey dinner with soup or salad and choice of dessert. The service was top notch. Our server was Seth who we have had serve us on many occasions. He goes above and beyond to make sure our meal is as perfect as possible. The GM Alex always warmly greets us and makes sure we are happy. The view of the bay today was spectacular with clear skies and calm waters. Always fun to watch the planes landing at San Francisco Airport and guessing what adventures folks are coming home from.
