I came for one of their wonderful Pizookes. I chose chocolate chunk with Vanilla Bean ice cream. I had a craving and could not resist. Thanks to servers Lydia and Myles. You were great! read more

Took a friend for lunch. It is a nice restaurant, always clean and inviting. The staff was good. Hostess sat us promptly and waitress was nice. We enjoyed the calamari appetizer, which my friend had never had. It was good. For lunch....my friend had the sampler appetizer, which was a lot of food for her. I e joked the jambalaya. Food was good...but not exceptional. It is a chain restaurant so not expecting more than what we got. Only down side was after we ordered the appetizer, the waitress came and informed us that there were 2 fryers down and our food was going to be delayed. It was not too long of a wait so we did not mind too much. Overall an enjoyable meal. read more

We had not visited in about 4 years. Our memories were mixed, so we thought we'd give it a go again. Good: service, atmosphere (it's pubby), the wedge salad at a steal price. Beer selection excellent. Bad: soup, chicken tortilla. First it came out lukewarm, when it was returned, they rewarmed it with the original tortilla chips in it (so soggy) and wow is the soup salty. I ate maybe 1/8 th of the bowl. We leave with mixed again, but I'm glad we tried it again. read more

Tri-Tip special was perfect. Pot stickers were perfect. Beer was cold and dessert was perfect. Jaden was our server and he was spot on. Ambiance is also good. We will be back read more

We come here every once in a while and its usually towards the end of the week. The daily specials are pretty good deal. I've had the prime rib which wasn't bad, but I will say the double pork chop was surprisingly good. It was seasoning well and really tender, would definitely order it again. But don't order the asparagus as a side because they were pretty sad. Pizookies are all the same to me. Food here has always been good and we haven't had anything that we wouldn't order again. Every time we come here service has been great. The atmosphere is pretty chill, even when its busy. I would prefer it over Bubbas or Texas Road House, which is all close by. We'll be back soon. read more

This was our first--and likely only--visit to BJ's Cottonwood Mall location, as we were just passing through from 22 hours away. The atmosphere was just what you'd expect from a brewhouse: clean, family-friendly, and lively with a medium noise level from the crowd. Restrooms were also clean, which was a plus. We originally came in for the sirloin and shrimp scampi combo ($24.99), but unfortunately, they were out of sirloin altogether. My husband and I both had to change our orders. The server kindly suggested upgrading to a ribeye ($32.99) with a shrimp side (around $5.99 extra), but the price jump didn't feel worth it. We ended up ordering the Shrimp Scampi ($23.99) and Atlantic Salmon ($24.99) instead--both of which tasted good, though not what we came for. Despite being busy, the staff seemed attentive and helpful across the board, and our server did their best to offer solutions. At the end of the meal, we declined dessert and were then offered a complimentary one, which we also declined--a kind gesture nonetheless. While nothing was "bad," the overall experience felt mediocre. It didn't leave a strong enough impression to make us want to return, especially after reading recent reviews mentioning other issues like inconsistent food and cleanliness. To us, these recurring issues suggest that some management attention may be needed to maintain standards. read more

The resturant was clean and the service was very great, swift and nice. The food was a solid 6-7/10, my friend and i went and tried items we havnt tried before . I have been many times to the uptown location so this was a first for the coors location . we both got an alcoholic drink as well . the drink was on their new drink menu and i can't tell you the name of it off the top of my head ‍ but it was absolutely amazing ! i usually get a pizzookie but was stuff from the mean and beverage. overall food was a 3/5 and service and ambiance 5/5. overall the price ran about 35/40$ before tip . Would go again but i'm more biased to going to the uptown spot! read more

Here visiting Albuquerque. I always try to visit one of my favorite restaurants in different states. The ambience is what you expect from this franchise. Dimly lit. Friendly staff. Quick service. Sports on TV as I personally want it so I can watch my teams playing. But that's where it ends and goes down hill from their. First let's start with the food. I always order the salmon at BJ. Blackened for me and oven grilled for the wife. Everything seemed in order till.... We started eating and how salty not only my order but my wife's order was. Like I get everything needs to be seasoned. I like salt. But not mouth puckering salt that makes you constantly drink to flush it down. Out of all the BJ restaurants I have been across many states. This is the first time this has happened. Then let's get to the bathroom situation. I took and posted pics. But I omitted from showing the toilets as that will make someone lose their appetite. Mind you. It was 7pm. Lots of staff standing around. And as of this writing. Only 9 tables had people sitting down at them and eating. I went in to wash my hands before eating and found it like this. Your telling me nobody could check up the bathroom every hour? Empty the trash? Flush the toilets or wipe the sink down. Went in again before I left roughly closer to 8pm once again to wash my hands and it still sits on the same situation just with more paper towels on the floor and toilets still untouched read more

BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse - Italian Chicken Parmigiana Pasta - Pizza Near Me - Albuquerque, New Mexico

We arrived before the Mother's Day rush, yet still waited 50 minutes for our order. As we left, we saw roughly three times as many diners seated and a crowded foyer of people waiting. Service felt slow and disengaged; the staff seemed unprepared for the holiday, and the manager was barely visible. Also, it's not a great option for keto or low-sodium diets, even with the "Enlightened" items. The Steakhouse Salad Wedge was the only choice that could fit a 30 net-carb day if you plan to eat 2-3 meals. Every entrée exceeded the 1,500 mg daily sodium limit often recommended for people with high blood pressure (2,300 mg is the general guideline for most people). Even the shareable appetizers are extremely salty--50 of them range from 4,341 to 7,541 mg--so you'd need 7-9 people sharing just to make room for an entrée. read more

Me and my fiance came in earlier today, we were having excellent service in the beginning, but i had ordered no pico de gallo on my nachos, and received it anyways. after going back and forth with the server, i had requested for a manager to help. the manager, daniel, came over and stated that we can "take it, or leave." we left, without a refund. i kept the upmost respect and kindness towards these workers, but the manager is a real piece of work. they need new management !!! read more

This is a review from our door dash order. My wife had the baked ziti and she said it was good. For the price, not worth the money. Charging $20+ for pasta, in my opinion, is ridiculous. I had the salmon with the asparagus and no couscous. The salmon was pretty good but the asparagus was horrible. Each piece was as thin as a stirring straw at a coffee shop. The taste was terrible and not even edible. Probably won't be ordering from there again. read more

Ok.. let me start by saying I never complain, much less feel the need to get online and leave a review, but I am just blown away by, not only the ridiculous amount of money I spent for one person - which was $40 and thats without a drink, but The portion sizes are insulting at best and actual theft at worst. I made this order today, Monday Nov 10.. I placed a Togo order online and went to pick it up. It was ready when I got there, which was nice, the server working the to go station handed me my bags and it immediately felt off. I gave him a $5 tip anyway and left. When I got back in the far I started opening everything and I realized what was wrong - it looked like i got the kid version of everything! So I brought it back in, talked to the same young man and asked him "Is this the normal portion size?" Holding up a salad bowl that was obviously less than halfway full. I got a smile and a "Yupp". Then I called the attention to the tiny little pizza next to it and asked "and this the $15 personal pizza?" Another smile and a "Yupp". At this point, I should have just asked for a refund and left, however the absurdity of it coupled with the fact I hadn't eaten anything since 6am, I decided to take it and go. Well hindsight's 20/20.. Here's the breakdown of what I got for my $40 I thought a personal pizza would be at least 8", ya know, a traditional small pizza.. NOPE! What I got was this bite size 4" pie.. the same exact size that I got as a kid at Pizza Hut. It was also soaked in an inexplicable amount of grease, as you can see from the stain on the bottom of the box. That's also the size of the whole pizza since I had already taken 2 bites out of it before I took the picture. I also ordered a Cesar salad, ($6.99) thinking I shouldn't fill up on just pizza and I could save the rest for lunch tomorrow - FOOLED AGAIN! not only did the contain nothing but croutons and lettuce, it didn't even fill up half of the container!! The only redeeming quality of the entire meal was the sea salt and caramel pazooki. It was absolutely delicious, and a good sized portion. It is the absolute only reason for the 2nd star. At $8.99 I should have just ordered 4 of them and maybe I wouldn't still be hungry. Now I have to call Dominos so I can get a real pizza for $8 read more

Update: No resolution offered by BJ's 26 days later after all info requested was submitted. As a contrast, I went with Chili's yesterday. Their whole meal was better and almost $20 less expensive. Ordered the steak rare so I could reheat it to the temperature I wanted. Have since reheated leftovers twice, the quality is still good. This was their ribeye with shrimp. read more

We came here for a late night eat after a concert and were happy with our choice. We both got burgers and the service we had was perfect.

Food was great, a hiccup with payment using the phone but manager was able to assist. I had accidentally left my full slab of ribs and fries 24.99 meal in to go box called to see if I can run it to grab it since I had my 6 month old and I'm in a sling manger was rude Christopher told me I don't know how it's his problem that I left the food and that I should be held responsible for not grabbing my stuff. And did an offer me credit or anything . I've never experienced anything like that as I loyal Customer to BJ and I enjoy their atmosphere and the food. *****Update after 10mins of posting this review the actual general manager called me apologizing and offering me a gift card. Thank you read more

I love BJs. Love their food quality and variety. Something for everyone. The have ample room to accommodate a large group.

I took my sister to BJ's Brewhouse for lunch. JP was our server. Beverages were wrong. Sisters food order was wrong. took at least 20 minutes for them to correct her order. We had to ask 3 times to refill our waters. zero star rating. Never going back again. read more

First time coming here. They had very nice staff. It's also very busy on the evenings on weekends. I ordered the jambalaya and the menu says it includes blackened chicken. But I got raw chicken instead. There were a lot of drunk people there being loud. But the staff were really friendly and comped my meal. I left as quickly as I could. Felt like I wasted my time. I want to give zero stars. read more

We had a wonderful experience tonight. Our server was Alexis. She was training a young man tonight so she had a shadow over here the whole time. She had excellent customer service so I'm glad she's training their new employees. Alexis was very sweet to my two kids and I'm sure they'll ask to come back just to have her as our server again. The fish and chips were recommended to us by her and they did not disappoint. We couldn't make up our mind about a burger but she added that all the burgers were $11 so we made up our mind and it was yummy! My daughter and I ordered the California Sandwich and it was huge! I'm glad we shared it! Alexis knew my plan was to share it so she already had the kitchen plate two plates. She was so thoughtful. I'm very happy we had a waitress that knew her menu and was able to recommend and describe the best part of the meals we asked about. The restaurant was playing some good music. Surprisingly it wasn't as dark in the place as I remember. I like the lights on the brighter side so I'm not complaining. We ended the night with a Pizookie! You can't leave BJ's Brewhouse without dessert. read more

We ordered the Mandarin orange pork chop and cherry chipotle salmon. $49. We have eaten at this BJs a number of times. Normally, it's a great experience. However this time the salmon was extremely dry and lacking in flavor. This is different from the normal juicy and flavorful salmon. The pork chop was not as good as it normally is either. However, the pork chop is so good that when it's not up to the normal standard it is still highly above average. I'd recommend not going to this BJs right after 4 O'Clock when the smoked items become available. It's better to wait until 5:30pm or so when they are in their groove. Trying to beat the rush backfired on us this time. read more

It's been since precovid since I last visited a BJ's restaurant! After my brother's graduation ceremony we all decided to get some lunch together. Originally we had planned on Red Robbins but sadly they were at their capacity and looking at about an hour to hour and a half wait. So we ended up coming here! I wasn't sure what to get seeing as my last experience at BJ's was less than stellar. I ended choosing the broccoli cheddar soup paired with a Cesar salad! I love broccoli cheddar soup and it's such a rare dish for me I love to get it when I can! Our server was on top of everything, kept checking in on us every so often. She made sure our glasses were always full, and made sure we were satisfied with our food. The soup oh it was good. It had a little cilantro in it but I loved it! Definitely restored my faith in this place! I'll most likely be returning! read more

I think our waiter had a hard time hearing us. Still tipped 20% because we felt bad, but getting our orders was a struggle.

I usually like BJs- typically get the jambalaya. This time I tried the salmon...3/10. I got Mac and cheese and broccoli. The Mac was like nothing I had before ( not in a GOOD way) idk what type of pasta was used but it threw me completely off. The only plus was the cheesiness of the mac... the broccoli was so bland I tried to offset the taste by mixing the two. The salmon was okay. I wouldn't order it again. read more

I'm actually giving them an extra star because we have had good experiences in the past. This last visit was one for the books! Our food took an hour to come out because our server forgot to put half of it in, or they really could not figure out how to cook chicken in the back like she suggested. Meanwhile, as we waited an hour for them to learn to cook chicken, they let our salmon bake under the hot lamps for the rest of the time. We asked if she could bring the salmon out because we thought it was going to be overcooked from the lights, and her response was that "Don't worry it'll be fine." When the manager came out to ask how everything turned out, we let him know the salmon was waiting there the whole time, and it was overcooked, he offered us a Pazooki. As we waited there with my parents and young children, they decided to sit a belligerent drunk woman next to us. This woman was yelling and talking with highly offensive language. Her friends and family all walked out on her, unfortunately, we did not have that luxury. We were sat on the far left side where all of the family sit and they put this drunk woman amongst all of the families with children, poor Management move. A Manager should have asked her to leave or they should've sat her by the bar, or even the bathroom where she really belonged. We were forced to sit there and listen to this woman while we sat dry mouth and parched because we were never offered a refill. I had to take my children to the restroom, it was so dirty. I would've rather had them go outside. I took them both to the ladies restroom and they asked if it was the boys, I just told them that hygiene was not a priority of this restaurant. To top off this fantastic dining experience, they brought the wrong check out twice and even forgot to take off the Pazooki. I understand that we are all out here trying, and it might have been our waitresses first day, to give her the benefit of the doubt. However, Management should have trained her, but also should have stepped in to keep the atmosphere family friendly. I definitely won't be back w my family but if you're looking to drink and watch sports this is your place and also comes w nasty restroom for that true downtown bar feeling. read more

My wife and I ate here recently. I was in the mood for eating at a restaurant's outdoor seating. BJ's. had it. We shared a steak and an appetizer. Both were delicious. But I have to say that, even though we were eating there at about 2 PM, it was cold. They have only one heater, which is on the south side of their canopy. We were sitting on the northside. We were fairly close, but not close enough. BJ.s I love your food, but please, put in more heaters. During this time of COVID, I appreciate your having outside seating, but I won't return until either the weather gets warmer or I learn that you've added heaters. read more

I ordered the Clam chowder bread bowl. It was great!, except it needs more clam Chowder in the bread bowl. It was full, but it still needs more clam chowder to equal the bread which is also a great bread bowl.

Came late on a Saturday night for their cookie dessert things - "pazookie" that a friend suggested. Which actually were pretty good. Aside from that, their food is not good. Nachos were one of the worst nachos I've had at a restaurant. Little fake cheese sauce, thin cheap chips, 2 tomatoes, and a tiny thing of salsa. It did have guac and sour cream. Paloma was not bad. The service is really the only reason they are getting 3 stars, out waiter was great, friendly, quick. It was my wife's bday so we got a "blowjob shot" haha. The mozzarella sticks were horrible - not sure if they undercooked it or mixed the mozzarella with something else? It was like not melty at all, it was gross. I took pictures of their specials, so other people are more aware. They do have a bunch of TVs and a decent size bar. We were also seated right away. Maybe I'll give it one more try, we'll see. read more

We were only one of three tables on a Wednesday night. Seated and served swiftly. The food was delicious, especially the warm, salted caramel cookie with vanilla ice cream. All three of us dug in and devoured in less than 5 minutes. The weekday day special pricing helps. $3 drafts, half price apps, $10 burgers. Our jambalaya was good but on the kiddie size. for $21 we expected something bigger. The dish itself had a great kick and the added veggies we asked for were fresh and crisp.

We are BJ's enthusiasts through and through. The food is usually good, prices are fair, and our time dining is streamline. We understand it's a chain and there can be inconsistencies, but our dining experience here was the worst we've ever had. Service is terrible. Upon coming in the hostess didn't even acknowledge to seat us even when we were right in front of her. There was no one in front or behind me. Our actual server was so slow, we kept on having to flag him down to get utensils and extra plates/bowls. We waited 45 minutes for our food. We couldn't find him for 25 minutes after we wanted to pay our check. Our water glasses were never refilled. Food was the worst part. Clam chowder was insanely salty. Sourdough bread was hard and tough to chew. Calamari was burnt. All other dishes were either way too salty or too chewy. Overall, no factor in this dining experience was even remotely average. The employees we encountered seem so "off", as if they weren't fully focused. So disappointing, as we have always loved BJ's, but avoid this location at all costs. read more

The service was friendly and prompt for a Saturday night and football being on too. Same menu as you find in other BJ's they did add new things on the menu. Our water was refilled and our server was awesome. I tried the Peruvian quinoa veggie style. I had them add a veggie paddy for a little extra substance and I'm glad I did. As a vegetarian the dish had great flavor but was kinda a let down as far as filling me up. Without the veggie patty I would have been hungry again in an hour.. instead it was 2 hours or so latter. The Peruvian quinoa bowl is brown rice, quinoa, tomatoes, spinach, and they put mushrooms on it which I had taken off, hate mushrooms.. it's not enough and I really wish they would add a Vegetarian protein there's so many options out there now for veggie proteins. I would also suggest if your going to offer a veggie opposition then add more vegetables to the dish.. mushrooms are fungus tomatoes are technically a fruit and spinach is in the lettuce family so actually there aren't any veggies on it... soo um... also it's clear Vegetarians are not the ones giving BJ's their ideas for the menu because they are not doing a good job as far as creating a balanced meal with protein. So your new veggie option isn't impressing me in the lest BJ's... read more
