Beer Dinner Course 2: Santa Fe Salad
Susan D.

Another great beer dinner! We've attended the past couple of years and have highly recommended it to family & friends. The main host of this event is Reuben and he ALWAYS does a spectacular job. He's absolutely awesome. I wasn't a beer drinker but since we've been going to these quarterly beer dinners, we've learned a lot about different types of beers and pairing that I now enjoy and have a greater appreciation of them. The other employees that helped like Nove, Dom & Claire really added to the warm and fun atmosphere. It's always a good time! And the chef Tino makes delicious dishes every time. This event is well worth it.

We are back and excited! We even brought the kid to introduce her to the pazookie lifestyle! I like the music play list today! It's a good vibe not to fast not to slow.... I can't wait for my jalapeño burger, to be followed by the pazookie trio!

We were told the wait time would be about 10 to 15 minutes, but we waited maybe 5. Audrey was our server. Attentive. Polite. Great sense of humor. When my husband got his dr pepper looked boring compared to my daughter's blue raspberry candy and my Dubai chocolate martini, she brought him cherries to add so he didn't feel left out. The food and drinks took some time to get to the table but everything came hot, so it was the back of house that was taking some time, not her. Dubai chocolate martini was great, not too sweet. Calamari was bland and had no taste. Needed some type of flavor or maybe more salt. Rib eye steak was cooked exactly as I asked. Jambalaya had great flavor We finished it with a trio pizookie. Cookies were nice and warm. We ordered the strawberry, a salted caramel and a Dubai chocolate pizookie. Dubai chocolate was a little too sweet for our liking. Salted caramel was perfect. The strawberry must have been good cause my husband didn't share - then began eating mine.

I've been trying out happy hours lately and this was the latest. Upon arrival we walked into the very crowded host area, partially due to a Padres game being shown. We were told there was a 45 minute wait even though we asked about happy hour which is only in the bar. We ended up just walking into the bar as a table was leaving otherwise there were no seats available. You don't need a reservation in that area. Once seated we were given a regular menu. All of the other tables had happy hour display cards on the table except ours so we had to flag down a server to grab that for us. They were pretty busy so two servers divided their time between us. One of our servers was chatty and pleasant and helped us with our decisions, the other checked in with us regularly but was very busy. We ordered 2 personal pizzas, pot stickers, a margarita and a beer. The pot stickers, tasted good dipped in the sauce. The pizzas, were crispy, cheesy and meaty. The Margarita a little sweet but I wasn't surprised by that. When I had initially looked at the menu on the website, I realized at some point I had signed up for the rewards program. I had a reward for a free pizookie so I redeemed that. We ordered the ice cream to eat there and took the pizookie to go. The cookie stayed warm until I got home and couldn't resist tasting it. It was perfectly crispy and gooey at the same time. I enjoyed it the next day too. This is my 3rd time ever to a BJ's, one in the Bay Area, one in La Jolla and this one. I'm not usually a big chain restaurant person, but they are good for happy hour deals. All three times the food has been consistent and the service friendly.

This visit was not a planned one. We decided to come here to try to have a hot meal while we were in the area. We have tried the Mission Valley and North County Fair Locations, and hoped that this one was good. When we entered, there was a wait. The hostess took our cell phone number, name, and party size (2). It was a 30min wait to be seated. We also were never texted, but had to go up to the front twice to ask our order in the wait line. They TOTALLY need a Yelp Waitlist or something on Wednesday Nights. We were seated and our server had not come for about 10 mins. We thought that this was odd. Finally, a server asked if we had a server and we said no. He was happy to be our server and we were happy to have him. He did an excellent job taking care of our dining questions, food allergies, and any requests that we had. His name on the ticket was Patrick I but he introduced himself as Isai/Esai. We ordered: The Ribeye medium rare with large baked potato, and a starter house salad, The Enlightened Mediterranean Chicken Bowl with no onions. Also a strawberry lemonade and a water for our drinks. Everything was delicious and came out within 12-15mins. My meal had a small Pizookie (Skillet baked cookie with scoop of ice cream) Sundae come with it. I chose the Salted Caramel one with Caramel drizzle, pretzel pieces baked into the cookie, and they added mini chocolate chips, which was delicious. I wanted the Chocolate Chunk one with fudge drizzled but we were told that they don't do that. So, this dessert choice with the chocolate chips added was delicious too! Overall, this was a good dining experience. I am happy that we spent an hour and a half at this location on a Wednesday Night. Specials here: Mon-Fri $13 Dinner Combo with specific Entrees + small Pizookie Wednesdays Any Burger on Menu $12.99 with unlimited french fries

Bat seating (Dominic was bartender !)

Stopped by for a quick lunch and to try the $13 at this location . The bar is so cool and welcoming . Dominic was bartender and he was helpful. It wasn't too busy so the bar patrons were all friendly and gave me suggestions . Dom also introduced me to staff who was being trained by the GM ! I had the bottomless soup and salad . They were nice enough to do it without arugula . The clam chowder was hot and comforting . I got the off menu side of ahi bites for $6.99 as the patron next to me suggested it . It's a small portion of ahi pieces served with wasabi and soy . Not too bad and a good protein compliment for the price . Dom chose my pizookie which he said was a fan favorite . It came out so fresh and piping hot in a to go bag . Can't wait to share it with friends later . The location has plenty of parking and is off the freeway . Absolutely recommend this location and can't wait to come back especially if it's same staff .

Dirty seats
Shauna W.

I had a hard time rating this as I wanted to give it more stars because our waitress Niki is what held it together for us . Upon seating us down the 1st thing I notice is the disgusting seating area in the booth . We didn't come that much later than opening so something tells me the seats are just that dirty. I am huge on cleanliness and the tables , floors even the waitress table where the tablet is , wow just gross . I almost wanted to walk out but it was an anniversary lunch and my spouse wanted a pazookie so I stayed . The food was not bad to be honest , and I'm a horrible elite because we were so busy in conversation that I didn't even take a picture of the food , and isn't that the whole point lol. Sorry for that , but smash burger was decent , fries were great . The pazookie was good as well but they really need to work on the cleanliness of the place

You can't go wrong with BJ's...everything is delicious! I'm not the only one who thinks so...the proof is in the packed brewhouse when I'm there and not there basically. It all started with their signature deep dish pizzas that made them famous then their Pizookie deserts that made them famous then their expansive menu... do I need to say more. I was hooked! This location does have its hands full but the staff handle it really well. They're still super friendly despite the busyness and able to stay on point in terms of service. I always enjoy myself in this fun and active atmosphere. BJ's all-around the BEST Yelp Community!!

Biscoff Pazooki
Jesika B.

My husband and I came in Friday around 6pm and were able to find seating pretty quickly in the bar (which is open seating) we had Patrick as our server tonight which was an absolute pleasure. He went above and beyond. My husband really wanted the pork chop meal deal (which they had run out of) but Patrick took it upon himself to rush to the back to double check and low and behold they had one more left! We were thrilled. I got the bbq chicken pizza which was good but was sad to see they don't have the buffalo chicken pizza anymore. We also got the boneless wings with honey buffalo and the spicy Asian sauces ( both very flavorful) and then of course I HAD to have a Pazooki so I tried their newest addition the biscoff and it did not disappoint. I honestly hope they make it a permanent addition to their menu.

Boneless Wings
Haleh M.

BJ's used to be "the spot" I remember practically being at a BJ's nearly every weekend... this was my first time at this location and my first time back to BJ's in years. While I had so many fond memories I was not prepared for how mediocre the food truly is. Everything tasted like frozen food warmed up. We came on a Sunday around 7 and waited 25 minutes to be seated. Once seated our service was slow. We waited a long time for our food and for our waitress to return to provide additional sauces etc. We got a variety of items but I can't believe the prices! One mini pizza- super tiny was $15.99. Wild Let's keep it real the real star of the show is the Pizookie and the only reason I'll come back.

Jumbo Spaghetti with Meatballs 7/12/25
Marcia R.

We all were tried and hungry after 7:00 pm And BJ's was close by. We enjoy going out the with the 6 of us and having dinner together So our server was Brook she was swamped with tables and large parties but had a smile on her As she brought us water & food. I had a wedge salad w/blue cheese it was good and came out first the salads She brought out our food with help too I know time we were all happy because it was able to see family an gather with food Even tho it was a long day at the soccer games Plus the won both games

Great food soo good cheese pizza and steak salad most nicest and greatest servers local viberead more

My family and I came from out of town to visit for a few days and found this gem of a spot…read more Food 10/10 We ordered the bbq chicken pizza, buffalo wings, and the pepperoni kids pizza. Everything was great! The bbq chicken was flavorful and had a great balance of bbq sauce and chicken. The crust was nice and crunchy on the outside yet soft and chewy on the inside. The size is perfect for a party of 2-3! The kids pizza was a perfect size for my toddler who didn't finish it all but was very happy with the taste. They definitely don't hold back on the cheese!! So if you like cheesy pizza, this is the spot for you! Vibes/Ambiance : 7/10 We came on a Tuesday evening and there was a lot of people! I definitely can tell this place is a go to for sports events or just gatherings. The place itself is cute. The decor is a little funky yet modern in design. I will say the seating is a bit crowded and it feels a bit claustrophobic. The tables are very close to each other and the tables are small. This place having a bar is a major plus and the variety of drinks is huge! Such a great spot. The service was quick and they were very nice. The gentleman in the front was super welcoming and friendly. I will say, as someone who was only a visitor, Carlsbad doesn't seem too friendly overall. People seem very standoff ish and unwelcoming so the places we did go to that had friendly people really stood out. This place was one of them. If we're ever in town again, we'll definitely go back!

My love for craft beer brought me here first and after the first bite of their pizza, I come here…read morefor the food first and their beer second. I've always ordered their largest pizza and would take the rest home to Los Angeles, but this time I was in the area for Stone Brewing's 30th Anniversary Celebration and did not have a fridge in the hotel I was staying at. My brother-in-law asked the cashier if they sold slices and they did! I never knew! Maybe I just didn't want to know so I would take the leftovers home. If ordering a whole pie, it's made to order. Hot, fresh and delicious. I love the sauce they put on their pizzas and the bread is simply amazing - especially the crust! I was hooked at first bite and the kids' first request is to eat here when in the area. A win win for me because I love the beer here too! There's limited parking in the back but a ton of street parking is available. There's also a bar outside they open at times along with several tables too. Great place, great food, great service!

I've lived in the area for years and finally tried this place. The pizza is actually really good. I…read morewish I would have come sooner. The reviews do not accurately represent. I really like the pizza. . The wait time is long if they are busy but I guess that as expected. A lot of people come here. It's loud and lively. I'ce cold beers are tasty. The prices are reasonable and service is good.
