Great place to eat. I've been there multiple times and never had an issue getting a seat. They have daily specials- so I can feed my family at five at the same price as I can taking them to Chick-fil-A , but we can sit down and have a pazookie afterwards. The hostesses are the best! Bella and Kylie are very personable and accommodating read more

BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse - New American Near Me - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Went to celebrate last night and we were extremely disappointed in our experience . We came in well before closing and even called ahead to ensure the kitchen would open for adequate time so we wouldn't be a burden! The restaurant was mostly empty aside from maybe 5 tables. It took about 10 minutes for us to be greeted by our server, another 15 for our drinks to come out. By the time we got our food we had been sitting there for close to an hour and half the food luke warm and fries were cold. When said we'd be brought new fries they didn't arrive until all the food was gone and we were ready for the check. Any request took at least 15 minutes so we just stopped asking. Was a poor ending to what should've been a great evening read more

Unfortunately, my visit to this BJ's location was less than inspiring. The only positive aspect was that the staff members were friendly. However, the food was not very well presented, lacked freshness or flavor, and the overall area could have been a little better with regard to cleanliness. The chips and dip were served to me with chips haphazardly all over the place and having fallen into the salsa and the beans accompanying the tacos (which I asked not to receive) resembled brown sludge, with the tacos shells themselves hard and not very fresh. All in all, I've had better experiences and better dishes here, but I think it can be hit or miss. This development has several other fast casual and other dining options that would probably be a better choice. read more

BJs is a solid pick if you want a little bit of everything and a solid beer selection. We went on a Friday night, and there was a bit of a wait. This was to be expected, though, and we didn't wait as long as the estimate we were originally given. My guest was on crutches, and we were seated at a table that required them to go up a few stairs. This was a little disappointing. Our food was decent and came out fairly quickly. I opted for the fried cous cous mac and cheese balls, but they lacked a little flavor without the accompanying sauces. However, the parmesan chicken was delicious. The white cheddar mashed potatoes are a favorite of mine as well. We went with pizookies for dessert-- I went with a brownie pizookie and my guest went with a salted caramel pizookie. Both came out slightly burnt, but they were still okay overall. I will continue to go back to BJs, but I think it's important to make sure one's expectations are right before going read more

I haven't been here for quite a long time but tonight was a great experience. Despite being crowded, my wife and I were sat within 10 minutes, albeit we did join the waitlist on our way there. For food - we started with the chicken dumplings. They were light and delicious. Good Asian flare to start the meal. For an entree, I had the Mediterranean Chicken Pita, in which the pita served as a taco shell. This was fantastic! The pita was grilled and there were a lot of flavors going on with tomato, feta, onion, and herbs. The yogurt dipping sauce was refreshing. It came with a side of quinoa salad, which was also very good. My wife loved her salmon power bowl, and I enjoyed the few bites I stole from her. The menu is a novel... and each time I go, I enjoy what I order! read more

I wanted to try a spot I'd never been to before so I decided to dine at BJs and I am happy I did. I went midday so it wasn't busy which was nice. There are TVs all around that had various sports channels on so you can eat and enjoy your favorite team. They have a good selection of beers as well as weekday meals specials and pizookie meal deals which was great. I ordered the southern fried chicken meal deal which came with a good portion of food then a small pizookie at the end. The meal tasted great, the chicken/corn/potatoes were cooked and seasoned well. I didn't realize there were different pizookie flavors so shout out to my server for the suggestions. I got the salted caramel one and it was divine. For an adult beverage I ordered a hard cider as I didn't plan on drinking but figured why not try it! I am happy I stopped here before going off to shop. I will be back again. read more

It had been a while since we stopped at BJs for dinner. This place is always packed on the weekends. We checked in at the hostess stand and headed to the bar for a drink while we waited. It seemed like a lot of time had passed without a text to be seated so I went to investigate and the hostess realized she forgot to add us to the wait list. She apologized and got us a table right away. Great service recovery., Our waiter was truly a delight and very efficient. He checked on us after ordering and provided excellent service. We tried their slow roasted and flash fried original bone in wings two ways - buffalo and lemon pepper - and both were really tasty. You get 10 wings to an order. I had the kicking chicken sandwich with onion rings and cole slaw and really enjoyed it. The chicken was super moist with a spicy crunchy coating on a really fresh bun with pickles. Their O-rings were super good too. We got a sugar cookie strawberry shortcake pizookie with whipped cream that was really tasty but could have been baked longer for a crispier crust. Good but could have been excellent. This was a really nice meal with good service. read more

4.5 stars. For the past couple of years, my husband and I have eaten many meals at this BJ's restaurant, and I have decided to round up my rating. BJ's is a restaurant chain that has hundreds of locations across the U.S. During my most recent visit, the menu for this BJ's in McCandless Township listed foods such as salads, wings, calamari, burgers, pizzas, salmon, shrimp scampi, filet mignon, Pizookies (large cookies), etcetera. A full bar is available. During all of our visits, the seating hosts and waiters have performed their jobs promptly and courteously, and the chefs have cooked our foods well. Some of our favorite foods are the baby-back ribs and ahi poke. I also thought that the power bowl with shrimp and the sirloin tri-tip with shrimp scampi tasted good. read more

I came in for lunch with my parents on Thursday, 2/6/25 around noon. I was worried it was going to be packed, but it wasn't, we were able to get a seat right away. Romeeca was our server and she took great care of us. Our drinks were never empty and she was personable. We all took advantage of the $13.99 Pazookie deal, which really is an incredible deal! An entree and a small pazookie for $13.99! Mom got chicken tortilla soup (upgraded to a bread bowl for $2.99) and the tomato mozzarella salad. Dad had the piadia (that could be the wrong name). But it's a flatbread with chicken, bacon, cheese and a side of ranch to dip in. His lunch came with a side soup or salad too! He got a salad with honey mustard dressing. I have the Mediterranean chicken bowl. And I absolutely loved it, it was delicious. For dessert, both parents had the triple chocolate, Pazookie and I have the strawberry shortcake Pazookie. SO GOOD! I can't believe I forgot to take pictures of everything Can't beat the price, for the amount of food you get. And everything was delicious. We don't have a BJ's close to us where I live, so it's a treat when I find it out of town. read more

Let me start out by saying our waitress Gretchen was awesome! The food, awful! We had ribs and pork chops, baked potato came out cold, sent it back, came back cold. Not sending it back again, as I was done with my ribs. Pork chop was not cooked the whole way through, ordered mashed potatoes, they didn't come with the meal when delivered, by the time they did come I was done with my meal. So disappointing, not once did the Manager come to discuss the issues we were having with our meal. Will not be returning to this location. read more

So perplexing... the restaurant is awesome, the staff are amazing. The food... it is a great menu, well cooked well seasoned well presented... yet something is off. Most of what we had was tuff to cut and chew. I suspect maybe the food is frozen and being cooked too quickly, maybe? I will be back to try again. I think they have the potential to be a solid 4 perhaps a 5. read more

Very rude staff and manager. Horrible experience. Do not waste your time or money. Not customer friendly and do not care about the customers at all. Food is over priced. read more

We had a reservation for 8pp. We arrived, the table was not ready and the server was late for work. They forgot 1 meal entirely out of the 8 ordered. The salads were swimming in dressing, and the pita tacos were soggy. Chicken Parm was awful. If I could give it no stars, I would. As a Chef, I have zero idea how this place is even in business. We won't be back. read more

I am completely dissatisfied with the burger sliders that I ordered. The website states that they have lettuce, pickles, grilled onions and ketchup on them. I received a dried out piece of meat on all of them with a little dab of ketchup on the bun. That's it! There are absolutely NO grilled onions anywhere to be found and the lettuce and large pickle slices are just thrown in the to-go container - they are not on the burger! This is such an utter disappointment I don't know what to say. I will obviously never order these again. read more

I usually enjoy BJ's, but I usually get bar food (burgers, pizza). That is always a good choice. Tonight I tried the prime rib special, since it is offered only on weekends. Big mistake. It looked nothing like the picture that was shown on the online menu. I wish I would have snapped a photo. May have been the thinnest piece of prime rib I've ever seen. And I asked for medium rare and was closer to medium, something you never do for this cut of meat. It was really strange, the top and bottom looked liked it had been reheated in a pan or something since it was totally browned; I've never seen anything like that before. Usually prime rib is served pink, especially when I asked for medium rare. I will say it was a good value at $35.99 in that it included a soup or salad, two sides and the famous pizookie dessert. But the disappointment in the main course took away any enjoyment from the value of the the meal. Next time I'll stick with pizza. read more

This is usually one of the top three places I recommend for large groups. I brought a group of 12 without a reservation and they were able to accommodate us. The staff were super nice and the food is decent. They won't have anything that will blow your socks off but nothing is ever awful either. I had their protein bowl with blackened salmon and it was good. I felt my bowl had a bit too much pickled onions but still enjoyable. Everyone in our group also enjoyed their food. read more

Justin was an amazing server. He checked on us and all the tables around us every time he walked by. This is especially noteworthy given the fact that good help is hard to find. It makes you appreciate good service even more. I love the crispy fried chicken sandwich. It was moist and crispy at the same time. My husband loved his bone in wings which were super meaty and filling. I'm not a huge fan of the fries. I prefer regular fries. Great experience! read more

Food was mediocre for the price point, but the drinks were well presented and reasonably priced. It felt like the whole staff was on their first week of work just off training and didn't really know anything about customer service let alone anything about the restaurant. No one could answer questions when I was booking reservations for a larger party I was left on hold for almost 20 minutes then tried again and still left on hold for 11 minutes because the host stand couldn't answer if they could accommodate our group size or not. Managers were extremely short, lacked phone etiquette, and in general don't seem to be very aware of how to be a manager. It wasn't like anyone was necessarily rude it was just like no one even knew what restaurant they were working in. Not a single question could be answered or even a general "im not sure but let me ask kitchen/manager/someone" Pair that with food orders that came out wrong (but took so long it wasn't worth asking kitchen to fix) and overall underwhelming plates I just don't think I could recommend this place to anyone. read more

Service was great. Waitress was top of the line and the seater lady was nice and sweet and pretty.

I love this place! The service is very efficient and if you sign in on the app before you go, you can get put on the seating list ahead of time. My current fav is the chicken bacon ranch pizza. I've gotten it full sized and individual. At other places I usually have to ask for extra ranch, not here! There are plenty of toppings! Then if you have room, you need to order a pizooki. It's a fresh baked cookie or brownie served hot with ice cream and an assortment of toppings! read more

Went this afternoon to try to a few apps after a movie. We ordered sliders and they came out cold. Waited over 20 minutes for the replacement sliders that also came out with cold buns, but lukewarm patties. Our server was apologetic and offered to mention to a manager. He told us he mentioned to both managers, but neither made a trip to the table nor was seen in the dining room during our visit. Will not be returning again. read more

Food tasted great, and service was quick,attentive and friendly. The Pizookie Meal is a great deal! Fun environment inside and lots of celebrations seemed to be happening around us. Will definitely return again! read more

My burger came cold with almost uncooked bacon. It took a long time for them to recook it. It was half price hamburgers, but the bill came back with the burger was full price. The "waitress " forgot it was half price night. read more

When they say "mini" pizza, they aren't kidding. It was smaller than a personal pan pizza. But they charge you for the price of a full sized large from anywhere else. This was $20. I understand the cost of everything is increasing, but this is absolutely pathetic. read more

As we walked in to this (not so) lovely BJ's, we were surprised by the pleasant vibe of the restaurant. Well, that was until we sat down. The server, who I will not legally name but reference as Greg Heffley wannabe, did not see too enthused to be waiting on us. We pride ourselves on not asking for much at all. We like the bare minimum, and yet, we did not even get that. Our very own GH wannabe was barely present throughout our dining journey. The food--kind of cold...and soggy. Portions were smaller than anticipated, especially with those price tags. Bathroom was completely trashed. We definitely saw a gaggle of girls vaping in there. The only reason BJs gets a 2...and drumroll please...were the pizookies (and they weren't even that good!). Overall, we stepped out of our very nice comfort zone to try BJs, and the main thing I leave this restaurant with is one question: "Why did we even bother?". I leave the Yelp community with one tidbit of advice. You'd be more satisfied (and spend less) by getting a BJ from your local hooker. read more

Our first visit to the restaurant. I ordered the Caesar salad, and it was good. I love avocados so I ordered the avocado egg rolls appetizer to go along with my salad. Of course, it sounded good at first and they were good, but I had wished I ordered something else. It was too many avocados for one dish (I thought). We had issues with gnats (fruit flies) at our table which was annoying but other than that it was a decent first visit. The menu has something for everyone. We look forward to visiting again and trying out other menu items. read more

We picked this due to it being en route to our kayaking plans just around 2-230 pm and overall we were not disappointed, and while it took a little longer than expected we were pleased with our experience. We had some hiccups though. We ordered the couscous Mac and cheese balls and these had bacon and cilantro. We only noticed one and had asked for no cilantro. Our server Mikayla (sp?) was very kind and was happy to remove this from them. I stopped eating them when I realized they had pork so be mindful of this is something you don't eat. When we ordered our meals I asked for a mini pizza with bbq sauce, green olives, and chicken. Our server was great and asked lots of clarifying questions. Our server accommodated not having green olives by grabbing a few from the bar for the pizza and this was super kind. Somehow tomatoes still ended up on my pizza which was fine but just added an odd taste to the pizza although due to how kind she'd been I just picked them off and dealt with it. We finished our meals by having the sampler of pizookie and this was our best decision. I definitely recommend getting these; we did a caramel toffee, chocolate, and the strawberry shortcake. These were amazing. The cookies were cooked perfectly, crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. We did think our server forgot us but it is more likely these take some time to cook haha, so expect these to take some time and definitely order then when your meal arrives or 10ish minutes earlier than you think you need to. Overall everyone of the employees we spoke to was kind, talkative, and engaging. The bar was abundant, and beautifully organized, giving the inside a nice aesthetic. There was a large beer selection and televisions all over to watch different things. This was a fun restaurant and the staff is accommodating of picky eaters, I would recommend you specify immediately what the special needs are. I would definitely be back here. I would also say maybe have more general cleaning -- we noticed salt, dust, and other ick on the banisters. read more

Ordered the potstickers and did not know that cilantro was mixed in with the slaw that was on the side. I would of appreciated being told ahead of time and it was not listed in the ingredients on the menu. I brought this to the attention of the waitress and the manager, and they should've at least brought me a side of slaw or something without cilantro or a discount on my check, very disappointed in the customer service. Potstickers were very good, but the cilantro left a bad taste in my mouth for sure! read more

We had a wonderful time watching the Kentucky Derby while at BJ's. We had a wonderful seat in a booth by the bar. We wanted to stay for awhile and had no idea what to get, so we started with a mini pizza as an appetizer and my husband had a Jeremiah Red. The pizza was great, and my husband loved the beer but thought it was too strong to drink all night. We then decided to do another appetizer. We picked the avocado egg rolls, but they were out, so we decided on the ahi poke bowl. We loved it! The sauce was great on it. We still wanted some more food while we were still watching the Derby so we got the lemon pepper sesame dry rub wings and a side of fries. The seasoning was amazing, and my husband then tried a Light Switch...also great! Our waiter was had patience while we kept ordering and wanted to stay maybe longer than expected. We gave him a wonderful tip! read more

My wife and I stopped here on a Wednesday afternoon around 3-3:30pm. We were seated at booth immediately upon arriving, and promptly greeted by our waitress; who was very personable and polite. She was a great waitress throughout our dining experience- repeatedly checking-in on us and getting us refills. My wife wanted to customize her alcoholic drink order (with vodka instead of tequila) and our waitress graciously (and patiently) entered the drink as requested (they type everything into a tablet). We also ordered appetizers (pictured) and both were delicious and generous portions- we couldn't finish. We then ordered our entrees, which we decided to split because we were both thought the bbq burger and the spicy chicken sandwich sounded good. (Both pictured) Everything was very flavorful. I will say that I thought the chicken had a rubbery texture when you bit into the thickest part of the chicken. It wasn't appetizing so I didn't finish my half. My wife finished/enjoyed hers so perhaps her half wasn't as thick. The atmosphere of the place is your typical sports/casual restaurant-bar. Nothing stands out good or bad. I did use the restroom to wash my hands before eating, and it was well kept. I'd definitely recommend this place based on the service and quality of flavor. There's plenty of things on the menu that I'd like to try so we'll likely be back when in the Wexford area. read more

Group made a decision after a movie to stop for a quick bite. Was pleasantly surprised. Upon arrival, booth seating for 4 around 3pm on a Sunday was provided in less than 10 minutes. Staff was friendly and very attentive. Food service was on point. Salads were fresh and as expected. We ordered a house and the Asian. BBQ Sliders were very tasty. Sauce was very good. Made the taste buds happy with the one bite. Ordered the fried dumplings as well. They went very fast. Calamari was ok. Some pieces were a little gummy but our guest loved them. Breading was medium and not extremely heavy. Burgers here were fireand were very good. Fries were fresh. Enjoyed the breaded chicken sandwich as well. Wings were good with the special sauce. They were mild with a Buffalo sauce drizzled on them. Beef dip sandwich was okay. Husband took it home and wanted to doctor it up a little. Waitress was helpful and provided beer samples to my husband who had been indecisive on which one he wanted. This helped him decide. That was really sweet of her. We had a very good visit here and left with full tummies after a great movie. Many thanks BJs. read more

So I have only been in resturant. I think they are generally a 3.5, but I rounded up. This is a go to resturant since I lived in Cleveland for my husband and I. Their food is interesting and taste good. With this particular location, I do think there are some issues with staffing. When we have gone, we generally get seated quickly, but the service is pretty slow. I think that is just something to consider. Foodwise, I like their burgers because they are seasoned and you can choose goat cheese as a topping. I also really enjoy their kale salad. The risotto balls are amazing, but they are often sold out (they are made fresh daily). The pizzokies are also worth saving room. They come in a cast iron pan, heated, with ice cream. Overall it is an ok BJs. read more
