My cousins and I came in for some dessert and we had such a nice time! The seating was prompt, and our server Tristan was extremely personable and kind. The pizookies were amazing, of course, but the service made the night! Highly recommend!! read more

9-1-2026 I hadn't been here in a while, and every other restaurant seemed to be closing soon. The parking lot is so squishy that even though there were some open spots, I did not want to risk bumping into another car. So, I ended up parking a little further away and walking. I ordered for mobile pickup, and it was the brewhouse bowl with shrimp. The pickup desk is to the right as you enter. The tracker seems like it would be useful, but then it didn't quite update so I had to go back and ask if my order was ready or not. I ordered the shrimp bowl not knowing what to expect, but it blew my expectations away. I was able to split it into 2 meals, and the blend of ingredients were so tasty. I would definitely try this again, and it's a little pricey, but it was so good! They also give you the utensils and napkins in a little brown bag. read more

me and my wife came to eat here on Sunday 9/6/2026 between lunch and dinner time. after being seated, we waited 20 minutes and not a single server or worker came to our table to take our order. I tried to get the attention of the staff, but they were nowhere to be found or busy doing other things. we just got up and left. how are we able to eat here if our table gets 0 attention? extremely poor service. i would not recommend this branch or restaurant chain to anyone. read more

Stopped by Thursday to have dinner with my family. We got seated pretty quickly, the restaurant was a little busy which is understandable. We are pretty patient. Bryan greeted us and helped us right away took our order and kept checking on us as he did to the rest of his tables. He was super friendly and attentive. Even though the restaurant was busy he was very professional, polite and friendly. The food came out pretty quick and it was delicious per usual. We love the ambiance at this location. We will definitely be back and hope we get Bryan as our server again. He's an amazing individual. Ended our family dinner on a great note. You could never go wrong with their bbq pizza, and pizakooe! read more

Was craving prime rib and my fiance suggested BJ'S. Came in early and were seated immediately. Mari was our server and she was attentive. Took our drink and appetizer orders followed by our main courses. Food came out quickly. Everything tasted good and was proper temperature. We both ordered prime rib dinner specials and medium rare. Both pieces of meat were properly cooked. We enjoyed a leisurely meal and had our included pizookies after the main course plates were cleared. Lots of food, we ended up bringing home quite a few leftovers. Nice evening, we will return. read more

Great food and service Parking is very hard due to construction right now at the Mall. My kids loved the Spooky Pizookie read more

Very disappointed with the quality of my order. I ordered two Pizookies with ice cream through DoorDash, and when they arrived, the ice cream was completely melted. It was very hot outside, and because I had no way of knowing how long the ice cream had been sitting melted and warm during delivery, I did not feel comfortable eating it due to possible food-safety concerns. I ended up having to throw the ice cream and cookie away from both orders. A Pizookie with melted ice cream is obviously not the same experience or quality you expect when ordering this dessert. If BJ's is going to offer Pizookies with ice cream for delivery, there should be better packaging or a way to keep the ice cream cold and separate from the hot dessert. I contacted DoorDash and was only refunded $3, which doesn't come close to making up for two desserts arriving this way. For the price of the order, I expected much better quality, packaging, and attention to how a temperature-sensitive item would hold up during delivery. Shame on them! read more

BJ's was an easy choice after an afternoon hanging out at the new Brea Mall outdoors playground. A friend and I shared the full rack of baby back ribs and I have to say, it was pretty good - wasn't dry or overly sauced. The included fries could've been a little crispier, but the garlic roasted veggies was good. We also ordered Jambalaya and it was delicious. The southern flavors are all there. Of course, we couldn't leave without getting a Pizookie. I can't believe the full size is only $5! It was enough to be shared among 4 people so that was nice. read more

This is my local BJ with that being said it gets packed so definitely recommend making a reservation hours before going. I had to come and try their Halloween pizookie. We needed up with 4 different once's because the meal my family ordered came with their combo but man all of them were extremely delicious! read more

BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse - Their (OG) chocolate chunks Pizookie. - Pizza Near Me - Brea, California

Quick!! I'll bet this is the first ever review you've read that starts w/ a contaminated food issue! Many years ago, when my three children were all knee-high to their gorgeous mother and in their full scale hellion, er, playful imp stage, the five of us had a LOUSY family dinner at BJs Brewhouse, Eastland Center. They'd dispensed expired apple sauce to my five yr old Bradley and the chocolate milk my nine yr old ordered was more a chunky, gloppy (lapsed) yogurt than children's dairy beverage! It was enough for me to vow I'd never return... Well, in the SECOND greatest comeback since Princess Leia liberated Han Solo from his carbonite slab, BJs Restaurant & Smokehouse has officially earned its way back into the good graces of your favorite Yelp correspondent. The sextet of us met at BJs Brea to belatedly hail Yours Truly for Father's Day- My oldest son had been outtve town on business and I wanted to defer the dinner 'til all three of my BMWs were present. To set the scene, our group was comprised of my effortlessly beautiful wife, my ethereal daughter and her BF, both of my sons and myself. For starters, I was pleasantly shocked at how nice the Brea BJs is decorated- Columns of antiqued brick rise to meet ornately sculpted crown moldings contrasted against weathered copper tin-inlaid ceiling tiles. This is not the BJs presented in their national TV ads- Which project more "Applebee's" than, say, the Cheesecake Factory. Relevant only because the Brea BJs abuts a Cheesecake Factory and -never thought I'd say this- actually can match TCF in decorative appeal and ambiance. We ordered a veritable Army's worth of food: -Appy of Mozzarella Sticks; -Cheeseburger + Fries for Elijah; -Smashburger for my youngest, Brad, aka the 5-yr old in my opening anecdote; -Hot wings for my older son Brandon, aka the 9-yr old; -Poke Salad for my daughter Brianna; -Chicken Caesar Salad for my bride and undusputed Matriach of our loving Family; -I came thisclose to ordering their epic looking Wagyu Burger then wizened up and, befitting the occasion, tabbed a Rib Eye, prepared medium rare, with Honey Sriracha Brussel Sprouts and Roasted Asparagus; For dessert we shared a full size S'mores Pizookie plus a trio of individual pizookies (Strawberry shortcake, cookies & cream & chocolate chunk), all crowned with ice cold vanilla ice cream. My family left a trail of emptied plates, testament to the finger-licking prowess of the food BJs served us. Our server was a delightful Tunisian gentleman who clinched our celebratory dinner. I should've recorded his name -but, I also forgot to snap any photos. I was enchanted in the moment w/ my beautiful, loving and supportive Family and so if my review is lacking anything, blame me...the knuck who was busily demolishing his impeccably seasoned rib eye and roasted veg! Don't hesitate to consider BJs Restaurant and Brewhouse for your family's next special occasion! We'd selected this particular BJs for its geographically sensible locale for our group plus we knew they'd have a plethora of TVs tuned into the World Cup. So even though Belgium dispatched the USMNT, 4-1, we still emerged triumphant because of our hugely satisfying meal. Bravo, BJs! read more

Stopped in for a quick lunch. Parking can be difficult during busy hours. Restaurant had a nice interior and outside seating area. We had their lunch $13 lunch special - entree and mini pizooki. One of the choices is their bottomless soup & salad. The chicken tortilla soup and mozzarella & tomato salad were especially good. Pretty good lunch selection with good service and pleasant surroundings. Afterwards go walk off the meal at the mall next door. read more

Spur of the moment visit that turned into an enjoyable lunch. Tried the $13 lunch special and it was really satisfying. I opted for the unlimited soup and salad and was so glad I did! The mozzarella and tomato caprese comes with arugula and was fresh and delicious. Other options were Caesar, house, and wedge but I stuck with the mozzarella and tomato. Soup options were Green Chile Tortilla, clam chowder, and broccoli cheese. Didn't get to try the broccoli cheese (too full), but my fave was the tortilla soup. The rest of my party enjoyed their entrees and the mini pizookies were just the right size. It's a good deal for $13. Service was great and the decor was typical BJs, which is fine. read more

I visited BJ's with some friends, and we tried the $13 deals. The food was a great value, and our waiter, Ahmed, provided excellent service. His beer recommendation was also really good! He was friendly, attentive, and made our visit even more enjoyable. We'll definitely be back! read more

Went in for a late night dessert. I wanted to use my free birthday pizookie reward before it expired! The place was filled with people & the sounds of sports looming through the air. It was a 20-min wait for a table, so we walked to the bar area & found an open table. We knew immediately what we wanted - pizookies & coffee, please! Our server was so nice... she even greeted me HB! The salted caramel pizookie w/ vanilla ice cream was sweet... I could hardly make out the 'salted' part. The toffee in the cookie made for an extra lil crunchy/ chewy bite, which I love. The triple chocolate Ghirardelli was divine - it was so rich, w/ a hint of that dark chocolate bitterness. The chocolate chunk w/ vanilla is a classic - perfect combo to balance out the bitter & super sweet. Even though these are delicious , I still miss their white chocolate macadamia nut!! read more

BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse - Birthday pizookie: salted caramel Pizookie Trio: triple chocolate, choc chunk, salted caramel - Pizza Near Me - Brea, California

We came here for dinner on a Monday night to use a gift card, and they had affordable deals for their food. For example, BJ's has half-off large (14-inch) pizzas on Mondays. When we ordered the great white pizza (has chicken and a creamy Alfredo sauce), the price went down from $34.99 to $17.50. The Alfredo sauce was a little too strong for my palate, but I did like the pizza texture. At the end of the day, this was a cost-worthy deal as we also got a lot of leftovers. We had also gotten the avocado egg rolls ($16.49) as an appetizer. We didn't care much for the sweet tamarind dipping sauce. It tasted vaguely like honey. Overall, these tasted adequate, but I don't think they're worth their price tag. They also came at the same time as our meals, so they became more of a side dish. I also gave the clam chowder a try but found the flavor and texture to be too rich. From the $13 pizookie meal deal, I got the enlightened Mediterranean chicken bowl. It came with grilled chicken, diced vegetables, vinaigrette, feta cheese, a little bit of Greek yogurt cream, and a mix of quinoa and brown rice. The chicken was soft and juicy; the seasoning was adequate. I wanted to give quinoa another try, but it didn't have much flavor. Even with the vinaigrette and diced vegetables, I didn't feel like the meal was very refreshing. However, it was still filling with just satisfactory flavors. The chocolate chunk pizookie was really good. It's basically a baked chocolate chip cookie topped with vanilla ice cream. It came in a small plate, so the serving size was perfect for our big meal. It's really sweet, so we drank water right after. Service was good, but I wish we got all our meals at the same time and the appetizer at first. One of us got the unlimited soup and salad combo. We had to be proactive with our server to request refills of soup and salad. Our server was busy, so refills weren't offered when we got plates and bowls picked up. The ambience was loud with football playing in the background. read more

We celebrated my father in laws 80th bday at BJ"s in Brea. This location has a patio for large parties. It's a nice area. Food was good. We had wings mozzarella, pizza, pasta, and salad. It's buffet style. We would like to give a big shout out to our servers Bryan and Zachary. They served this large party of 85 really well. Non stop refill of our drinks. Constantly asking if we need anything else, refilling food very quickly. They are both awesome! My favorite is Bryan, he is 10/10 read more

If you want perfect service just go to Japan and you will see. The ambiance or atmosphere is ok. You may deal with screaming babies and football games on the TVs.

Where do you go when you need somewhere to stop off on the way home? We go to BJ'S! It is located near the Brea mall. First off, they have complimentary Valet parking. We had about a 15 minute wait. Once we were seated, service was really good. They have a $13 meal deal Monday through Friday all day. It includes an entrée and mini pizookie. Such a great deal! The Enlightened Mediterranean Chicken bowl was so good and very filling. They also have a salad, pizza, and cookie combo included in that deal. Overall, cannot go wrong with BJs. Lovely place to eat at for the whole family read more

Wednesdays are the best day to come to take advantage of their burger special. Not to mention their BJ brews are also specially priced at $6 on Wednesdays.

* Who: partner & I * What: Valentine's weekend * When: Sunday dinner * Why: Cheesecake Factory line was too long * Space/Decor: standard sports brick brewery theme as with most BJ's. Large, spacious, various sections for seating. It was a little loud, but that's to be expected. The table was clean, the seating (one seater table/booth) was a little dirty via random bits of trash on the side crevice. * Service: our server was nice & attentive as best he could be given it was fairly busy. He took our order promptly & delivered the food & drinks pretty quick, but it was sometimes a wait trying to get his attention in the interim if we needed extra napkins or were going to get another drink. He was nice enough to change my BF's beer order since he realized he ordered the wrong beer. * Food: surprisingly good. I don't remember the last time I was at BJ's. We started off with drinks, which were decent. As mentioned, he got a beer & I got some blood orange cocktail. Next came our Avocado Eggrolls & Calamari. They were both fresh, crispy, & flavorful, which took me by surprise. We also ordered individual pizzas (forgot to take photos ), & that was also surprisingly yum (BF said they're known for their pizzas which was why I ordered it). It was hot, crispy edges, a good side, & full of flavor... would definitely get again. We ended with a pizookie, which was standard but good. * Final Thoughts: standard chain restaurant with decent food/good portions, fair prices, & ok service depending on busyness. Menu is extensive, so there should be something for everyone. * Final Grade: B+ or 8/10 read more

This place is busy and noisy but the food was amazing. The waitress was funny, friendly and super nice. When the bill came I thought they had made a mistake, it seemed way low.

Love the berry cider, so yummy. My favorite entree has always been the scrumptious BJ's thick crust pizza , unfortunately the crust is now different ( tried another BJ's also) not the sweet savory crunch that I have Loved for years. So bummed. Everyone was nice and friendly Enjoyed sitting in the patio to watch the construction at Brea mall. The lunch pizzooki fabulous. read more

Went during happy hour and sat at the bar and didn't have a good experience at all. The avocado egg rolls are usually always good but they came out cold and took forever. Server was understanding and made sure we had a good experience after the food came out. Also ordered a pizza and it came out faster but was full from the egg rolls which is worth it for 7$ on happy hour. read more

We had a great experience here. We came to try the holiday items. I ordered the Tipsy Snowman which had Bailey's withe a cute little Snowman Marshmallow. I ordered the Jambalaya with pasta noodles. It was pretty good but it tasted like the flavor had been toned down compared to the past. For dessert, we had the Dubai Chocolate Pizookie and the Monkey Bread Pizookie. Both were absolutely incredible. The Monkey Bread Pizookie has had my heart for years since it first came out many years back so I was happy they brought it back. Love this location. read more

Did not have a good experience today and I don't think we'd come back here anytime soon. It had been a long while since we'd had BJs, and today my husband was craving their jambalaya with the rainy day. I ordered on their app and noticed I forgot to add my apartment number, so I called the store immediately to let them know. The person on the phone tells me orders are delivered through DoorDash, and there wasn't much they could do, and suggested I cancel my order and do it again with the apartment number, but as he said "it'll cause a delay in your order ". So I asked why would I need to do that, when they can simply WRITE IT IN?? Isn't that the simplest solution?? Well he did do that, but apparently wouldn't have had I not brought it up. The delivery was late by almost 30 min, not because of the dasher, but because the dasher literally had to wait almost 25 min for the food that was supposed to be ready by 4. The food itself was not good. I had the tri-tip bowl which I've gotten in the past, and it was extremely salty, and at &24.95, very overpriced. All I ended up eating was the actual steak and guacamole. My husband stated his jambalaya was also salty and very greasy. I used to really like BJs, but I feel like this experience was the nail in the coffin for me. If you're in the area and hungry, do yourself a favor and skip this place, cross over the 57 and check out California Fish Grill instead, wide range of healthy options, much better quality and lower prices. read more

Had the small pizza vegetarian style. I got admit it was pretty darn good. Had a wedge cellar to go with it. My wife had the chicken salad and she loved it. Our waiter was Tristan. He was really good. He explained the meals that we were looking at choosing. He wasn't always at our table asking us if we needed anything and he didn't ignore us either. Just the amount of times coming around. It was OK looking inside. Just another restaurant to me. We will definitely go back again. I don't know why it's yelp reading was as low as it showed. It should've been at least low to mid 4's read more

I ordered the nachos appetizer and at that for my meal and as ordered the limited time Dubai chocolate pizookie. I added chicken to the nachos and they were pretty good and very filling. I really like Dubai chocolate and I'm glad they had a new pizookie for it. Unfortunately the pizookie missed the mark and didn't really taste like Dubai chocolate. It was ok and I wouldn't try it again. The service was good and I was seated right away. read more

This was built as Magnolia's Peach a high end restaurant and bar in the late 1970's early 80's BJs has retained much of the original design including brick work, tin ceilings etched glass, and a antique bar.

Our server Alexis was very nice! I requested a booth in a section which was already full, yet the hostess still accommodated my special seating request (seating us immediately) so Alexis had more tables than typically assigned yet she treated us like VIPs (even before she knew it was my birthday) I was pleasantly surprised to receive the yummy salt & caramel Pizookie, with vanilla bean ice cream, complimentary for my birthday - wow! I ordered the personal pizza & wedge salad, both were excellent, the bottom of the pizza was perfectly crispy, with just the right amount of bbq sauce over the chicken & my friend much enjoyed the salmon! I rated the food 4-stars only so it would contrast with Alexis' service which I wanted to give 5-stars. I would have given atmosphere 5-stars, but the music was too loud (most people might be fine with the volume). I plan visit this BJ's multiple times before I'm there again for next my next birthday, Thx! read more

This BJ's location is one of my favorites to visit! The service is always great the staff is quick and attentive. We visit often and each time is always great! Right now with the construction going on they have complimentary valet right in front. Also, right now they have a $13 meal & mini pizookie. I hope they keep the special long term! It's honestly just the right amount of food. My favorite meal choices are the smash burger and the southern fried chicken. My favorite pizookie is the strawberry shortbread. You will not be disappointed hits the spot every time. This location is busy so I recommend making an online reservation. read more

If I can give this place 0 stars I would. The waitress BELLA gave us an extremely bad experience. We unfortunately had multiple incidents with her. 1) When looking at my friends ID's she already had a bad demeanor towards us, Instead of handing back our ID's she tossed them back towards. When we were right NEXT TO HER. 2) One of our drinks came and unfortunately we did not like it so we kindly asked to replace it for a different drink she had attitude towards us and it took 30 mins for us to get it back. We had to remind her multiple times and she kept responding "oh. I forgot." In a very stand offish tone. 3) We waited over an hour for our food but the other table she was serving ordered after us but got their food right before us. Never have we ever experienced such poor customer service. It felt very prejudice. We were a group of woman of Color and the table who kept getting their items before for us were all Caucasian. read more
