Great little date spot. Quiet atmosphere and good drinks.
We were just there on Sunday for what we hoped would be a great experience with good food, etc. I would give this place 0 stars if I could. Filthy rug in foyer, no food after waiting for 1 1/2 hours, no explanation from the manager as to why, only that multiple employees called off. On Father's Day?? Maybe they should have closed the restaurant if they weren't able to take care of their customers. This was the worst dining experience ever, and we walked out.
Gorgeous place, amazing food, great environment and our waiter was great!! The food was so fresh and I will definitely be coming back 🔥
Excellent food and service!!
Really cool place. Food was pretty good. Service was a bit slow although we went on a Monday. I got the Fish and Chips.
Great! We had an awesome time
We had a great time at BJs for mother’s day…food was amazing! We even stayed for dessert. By the way if you go, ask for Myriam or it’s not worth it! Fun, friendly and sooo helpful!
We came here for dinner on a Monday in April. I had been here one other time a few years ago but don’t remember what I had.
We sat at the bar. The bartender, Hannah I think, was friendly and personable. God love her there were a couple obnoxious men at the other end of the bar and she was pleasant to them and apologized to everyone else in the bar after they left.
We had a couple drinks and shared the calamari and crab cakes. The calamari had some spicy peppers in it and I really liked it but if you aren’t in to spicy maybe see if they can hold the peppers. The crab cakes were good as well. We did each have a clams casino and that was not my favorite thing but I am used to smaller more well cooked clams with no casino.
The atmosphere, despite the obnoxious couple of dudes, was easygoing and casual.
Prices were good. Parking was in the street no meters.
We had a good time and enjoyed the meals.
Honest review of our experience at BJ’s tonight: We took two of our kids and two friends for a casual family dinner—no reservations, just hoping for a good meal and a fun time. When we arrived, they asked if we minded sitting upstairs, which we didn’t, so we headed up. As we made our way to the stairwell, we were hit with an overwhelming scent—like someone had dumped a gallon of Febreze down the hall. At first, we brushed it off, but once we got upstairs, it was clear why. The entire area smelled like a smoking bar, and the heavy air freshener was a poor attempt at covering it up. I made a passing comment that it smelled like a smoking bar, and the hostess shot me a dirty look—not exactly the welcoming vibe we were hoping for. Luckily, our servers saved the night. They were absolutely amazing—funny, attentive, and made sure we were taken care of. If it weren’t for them, we probably would have left. Now, onto the food. Two people at our table ordered the prime rib special, which came out in a small thin portion, overcooked and dry with no au jus. It was served with a side of some kind of pudding-like bisquit that couldn’t be substituted, so we gave it a try… and well.. there’s no words. Multiple steaks at the table were also overcooked, which was disappointing. And for the price? Definitely not worth it. The food didn’t live up to any standard, and for what they charge, you’d expect a much better experience all around. We eat out frequently and love trying new places, so we understand that not every meal is going to be perfect—but for the cost and the overall experience, this one really missed the mark. The only real highlight of the night was the fantastic service from our waitresses. They made the best of an otherwise rough visit, and we truly appreciated them. But between the lingering cigarette smell mixed with air freshener. subpar food, high prices, and the off-putting attitude from the hostess, I can’t say we’ll be in a hurry to come back. Hoping BJ’s can take some feedback and make improvements because the potential is there, but tonight just wasn’t it.
Food was ok. Steak was over cooked. Waitress forgot several items but we had a party of 10 so I know it was not easy but they weren't busy at the time we went

We throughly enjoyed our first visit! The historical ambiance was exciting, the severs were fun and the food was excellent. We had clams casino and reveled in it. The fish and steak were also done very well. We ate early and left as the restaurant was filling up. A nice menu selection.
