Having never visited this location before, we were pleasantly pleased with the level of service, the friendliness, the flavor of the food, the value for the money. I've got to admit, it was slow afternoon in the restaurant, very quiet, about 50% capacity. Our server was very attentive, got to our table very quickly, offered us some beverages and asked if we needed any help on making a decision. We chose some of the lunch specials, with the tavern-cut pizza, as well as the chicken Parmesan lunch. We combined this with a tossed garden salad with blue cheese dressing. As mentioned above, the food was very warm, great portion size, got to our table very quickly, and it was very tasty. We would definitely go back, to partake of this location and the food they offer here again. Thank you for making it a great experience. read more

Unfriendly waitresses and unwelcome attitude. This is the second time I am with friends (I don't drink). The moment I answer "water only please" and not a drink then that's it: they never engage, make eye contact or even attempt to take my order through the following 30 minutes, after which I leave the facility due to unprofessional service. read more

Had a great time celebrating one of my Birthday celebrations here. Very friendly staff. They are very accommodating to food allergies. Food is delicious! Also, had take out several times at this Redmond location and Tukwila location. Great with accommodating food allergies with take out. I would highly recommend this restaurant for any special celebration. read more

Great spot & reliable great food and service. Loved our time here for happy hour! Would recommend this location for the good service :)

Man. Should have looked at Yelp before I came here. In all fairness, I was actually at RTC for something else and happened to park my car in the parking lot next to BJ's and thought I'd give it a try since my friend and I were curious. We ordered the Mac and cheese Cheesecake Factory knockoff, fettuccini Alfredo with chicken, the lunch special (chicken bacon ranch pizza with Caesar salad and dessert). Okay... so my salad was super small... and soggy. My friend said it was like cafeteria food and I agree. The pizza on the menu looks so misleading. It's a pic of a personal pan pizza on a hot sizzling deep dish pan. I thought mine was gonna come like that... nope! It looked like a sad personal pan pizza from papa Murphy's take n bake, but without the bake. The dough tasted almost like it was raw and uncooked. Don't even get me started about the cookie...the dessert was sooo sweet. Mac and cheese balls were weird. Overall, I'd say it's like a disappointing knockoff of Cheesecake Factory, but the pricepoint is still expensive!!! read more

There's not a lot of options for vegetarians, but whenever we go, we get the crispy jalapeño burger with a veggie patty and that is always delicious. I love their fries. They're coated and some batter before they're fried, which makes them taste really crispy and delicious. My family and I are big fans of the Kazuki. Our favorite is the chocolate chunk which is a basic chocolate chip cookie with vanilla vanilla ice cream. If you go on Tuesdays, it's only five dollars. I think it's totally worth it. The personal pan pizza is a little too expensive in my opinion so are the appetizers for what we get. The avocado eggrolls are delicious but everything else is super mad.. normally we get seated pretty quickly, but our food comes to us pretty slow. I like that there are TVs all over the restaurant so that we can watch a game whenever we're eating. The vibe is very nice especially if it's more popular game. read more

Today I ordered to be delivered by Uber two orders of the brussels sprouts I am so unhappy that I'm gonna take pictures and send it to the corporate office they weren't even cooked properly they were as hard as a rock none of the extra ingredients were on it it did not it had a horrible taste I did call the store manager he did give me a gift card but somebody needs to terminate the chef who cooked the brussels sprouts he obviously did not follow the recipe I hope Management read this and could reach out to me because those brussels sprouts could break or hurt your gums that's how hard they were read more

Haven't been to BJ's in a very long time, especially since they took my favorite item off the menu. My cousins and I went often a long time ago, like 20 years ago. My nephew wanted pizza, so we decided to come here, so that there'd be something for everyone on the menu. Of course, when we got here, my nephew decided he didn't want pizza anymore, and got chicken strips instead on the kid's menu. It wasn't busy at all for lunch on a Saturday. Service was friendly. I got the Parmesan-Crusted Chicken, and so did my cousin. My bf got the Slow-Roasted Tri-Tip and Baby Back Ribs Combo. I also got the Pomegranate Margarita. Everything was good. We were all satisfied. I had leftovers. For dessert, I shared the Pizookie Trio with my nephew, and my bf got the Monkey Bread Pizookie. read more

I didn't have the best experience this past weekend, but I really appreciate the management's responsiveness and the company's willingness to make it right. That counts for a lot in my book. So while I haven't been back to this location since my original review, and it may be awhile before I do because I live an hour away, next time I'm in the area, I will be happy to return. read more

This BJ's location has some of the friendliest and most helpful service staff I've experienced in a while. I was solo so I sat at the bar to catch the end of an NBA game and have dinner after a long day. The staff was attentive and friendly. BJ's is pretty good food for a chain place and this location was quite good. I didn't really know what I wanted so I went for the tavern-style pizza and it was terrific. read more

The pizookies are really the only thing I recommend ordering at BJ's. The service is so slow here though. It takes quite a lot of time for the food to come out. The chicken sandwich had no flavor and the amount of sweet potato fries that they served me was insane. Would not come back. read more

We made reservations at BJs RTC to enjoy the USA v. Belgium WC game. They seated our group in the back section with 2 small screens when there were plenty of room in the middle section with larger screens. When we asked, the host told us - "the booths are too small", and then "those tables are reserved" (note that we also had reservations). And then he blurted out "this is not a sports bar". There were plenty of other tables available where he could've accommodated us. It was clear he didn't want our group to sit in the middle section or didn't care at all. We ended up taking his advice and went somewhere else. Not going back here again. read more

We ordered deep dish Nachos and they were not deep dish at all. There were hardly 15 chips where you can see the bottom of deep dish with no topping or cheese for $26. It was a rip off dish. Then for entree we ordered pizza which smelled so bad that we could not even eat. It was worst experience ever and the prices are skyrocketed. Overall condition of the restaurant was bad too. I have been to this location many times but this visit would be my last. read more

We visited for a late lunch on Saturday with a party of 6 adults and 4 kids and it could have been better. We arrived and were seated in the back room, on the right, the place was mostly empty. The waiter stopped by, said hi, then left. He came back about 5 min later to take drink orders. We started with apps; Crispy Chili Potstickers, Garlic Shrimp with Toast, Wings, Chips and Guac, and Ahi Poke. The apps were all well made and tasty. For mains we had a Chicken Club Sandwich, Brewhouse Philly, Great White Pizza, California Club Flatbread, and kids meals. The entrees were standard BJs fare, good, but nothing special. The service is where things fell apart. After taking drink orders, the waiter disappeared for 10 mins, then came back and said they were out of root beer. He left after we replaced that order, and was gone for another 5 mins. We had to ask for straws twice, my son had to go to the bar to get sweetener for the ice tea...etc. He was absent for long periods, leaving water glasses empty and requests unheard. We purchased gift cards at the end, which further delayed the check out process. Overall, BJs can do better. read more

New management. The Service was nice until management started removing uneaten food pouring out coffe. Stating we need to leave because they had someone else coming. We should have been informed this while we waited for our meal which too 1 hr to arrive. We had a restoration for noon ate at 1:25. There were 20 in our party. We will never go there again. read more

I brought a large group for lunch (11), after calling ahead to ask if they could accommodate us. It took at least 10 minutes before the waiter even came to take our drink orders. At that point we needed to order both drinks and food at the same time. The food came 50 minutes after we got there. Only one person got a refill after asking for one. Mandatory 18% tip but it wasn't really worth it. We won't be back. read more

We had a reservation for a Wednesday evening so it wasn't too bad. The server was hospitable and nice. We like the calamari and the salad with arugula but the alfredo deep dish pizza was just okay. The country fried chicken was also okay. We also loved the pizzacookie and almost tried most flavors except cinnamon one. During your birthday you get a free big pizzacookie. We also mostly ordeed on their $13 menu with entree and a mini pizza cookie. The ambiance is your standard darkly lit American family restaurant. read more

I love it here! Usually if I have to pick someone up from the airport at night we stop by here because they are open late. Food options are great. There's a variety to choose from and usually everyday of the week there's some special going on. Definitely download the app too! I have had my best yap sessions in a booth at a table. Ambiance is great! read more

Walked in at 5:35 and sat at the bar. Another guy pulled up a stool ten minutes later, still not acknolwedged by the bartender. A couple on the other side of him was waiting to pay their check a few minutes after 6:00. Finally at 6:15 I asked someone walking by if I could have a beer, who graciously stopped for about 5 minutes to handle the entire bar that was waiting for service. By 6:25, the bar had cleared. I've never experienced anything like this before. It wasn't until about 6:10 or so that the manager finally came out of the back office and started pouring a couple drinks. Only saving grace was the employee that went out of her way, and unfortunately that 5 minute break to help us probably cost her tips. This is not the employees' fault. This is the fault of the ownership and manager. If you're that short-staffed, get off your chair and help your employees. read more

Bj's was my usual office hangouts and always had a great service, food and atmosphere! The visit with the family didn't turn out as expected! Firstly, i got a chair that was wobbly and would make an embarrassing collapse if I sat on it any longer. I moved in along with my wife in the sofa as getting attention of my server was a bigger battle where I probably spent most of my time even for simple requests like water or the check! Service was super slow with more than 30 mins wait time! The frustration was the abandonment to be sitting without any water or silverware which had to be called out to the server after the food was delivered! Meanwhile, while most tv screens were showing a game, some were showing an adult sitcom like American Dad and kids being glued to it isn't a great atmosphere! Given the high number of families that visit Bjs, someone needs to look into it! The food was ok, loved the Bj's chicken wings, they never disappoint! the avocado egg rolls weren't the same like before, it lacked the freshness. and the Protein bowl was very bland, it felt like eating for a diet than a regular dinner! read more

I took my parents to BJ's restaurant for the first time last night. We are visiting Washington and I assumed that this BJ's would be like others. The food was good however, the service at this establishment was very poor. We ordered the pizza and salad and the pizza arrived before the salad. We had to ask for refills three times and the kicker was when we were walking out with our desserts to go because we had been there for over an hour and a half the manager and a server came out and asked us if we were taking someone else's food. We showed them our desserts. The manager hardly apologized for their error. read more

(6/24/24)- First timer: was desiring steak and was close to hotel. Steak = 4 stars Sides =1 star Service = 3 stars House beers = 5 stars Atmosphere = 4 stars Mgmt= 1 star Service was par but in my opinion understaffed for as busy as it was on a Monday . We Ordered Ribeye and filet. Steak was made to order and exactly as we requested (medium-rare). Sides were steamed broccoli - which you can tell have been sitting in a hot light for at least an hour (no posture what so ever) Asparagus- same as broccoli and were meaty dried out. Wife's mashed potatoes - scooped from pot and thrown toppings on. Asked to have "mushroom/onions" as topping for Ribeye I which didn't arrive on it with steak. After 15-20 min they were brought out (made to order) to add to my steak. Later was charged for them and immediately upon asking she said "want me to remove?" Uh-yes, hello!!! Shouldn't have been charged and/or given delays should've asked manager to stop by table and address (was too busy sitting at hostess area to great any of the maybe 30 guests of a likely 300 capacity restaurant. Home brews chosen: Blonde & Hefeweizen were great! Atmosphere was good for games Not likely to come back but always try to give benefit of the doubt should I come across another BJs Pricing was above average or for what received. read more

We received a gift card from a friend to BJ's and came in Friday night for dinner. We arrived around 6pm and were immediately seated at a booth. We've been to BJ's many times for dessert but rarely for dinner. I ordered the spaghetti and meatballs and my husband got a bacon guacamole burger. I enjoyed my spaghetti but didn't think it was anything special. It was a very large portion and I was able to take half home for leftovers though which was great! My husband thought his burger was only mediocre. The best thing here is the pizookies in my opinion. We got a trio of minis with chocolate chunk and triple chocolate pizookies. We started digging in right away, so I forgot to take a picture of the delicious treats! Overall, we had an enjoyable experience and there was a nice ambiance. However, the food seems overpriced for the quality you get. For the same price we would much rather eat somewhere else. We will forever continue to come back for dessert read more

There is a large parking lot which is used with other businesses. I had an easy time finding close parking on a Sunday evening. We were seated quickly. The service was extremely friendly. Our food took quite a while to come out. The server even brought it up first and apologized. It was not busy at all, so not sure why that happened. The deep dish pizza is pretty good. It isn't really a traditional deep dish. Just a thick, soft dough. We tried the cinnamon roll pizookie. It was not cooked completely in the middle of each cinnamon roll. That was pretty disappointing because we were excited to try it. We would not get that one again but would like to try another one. There is lots of seating. It was pretty dim inside but felt nice and comfortable. read more

I cannot possibly fathom how terrible of a time I had at BJ's brewhouse. When I came, it was very nice. The service was nice, but it did take them about 45 minutes to bring the food to the table. Once they brought the food. The food was regular. Everything tasted fine and I tasted a bite of my friends food and it was fine but then when I tried to eat my salad, I was eating it and it wasn't bad. It didn't taste too bad, but then I moved my fork and there was the largest grasshopper I have ever seen in my life in the middle of my salad bowl and I thought it was a piece of lettuce and I almost ate it and it was so scary because I have a deep fear of crickets and grasshoppers after 1000+ of them were released into my room when I was four. I could never go back I was crying. I was sobbing. My trauma was back. My PTSD was back. the grasshopper. It looked me in my eye with its little red eyes, and I cannot I cannot fathom. read more

I have been going to BJ's for several years. We went last sunday early evening. I ordered the rib eye steak dinner. When we received our meal, my steak was barely 1/2" thick. I have had better steaks there before, why have you changed this. the cost of this steak was pretty high for the quality of the steak. Sorry but I will not be going back there again, Carol Miller read more

First time here! Would compare the vibes to a Claim Jumper restaurant which used to be the same building in the past actually and a more upscale Applebee's lol. Also reminds me of The Cheesecake Factory restaurant too. I love the comfy booths and all the televisions playing different sports. Our waitress Carrie was super kind and attentive. We ordered the Wednesday daily specials $1 wings and $5 BJ's signature beers to start off. Also ordered Italian Chicken Parmigiana Pasta and BJ's Smokehouse Burger with side of onion rings instead of fries. My man enjoyed his burger and I loved the pasta. The wings were saucy and yummy but a little fatty. We got full quickly and took our leftovers home. All staff were friendly and I liked the lighting in the restaurant. I would return for happy hour or the daily specials again and to give the famous Pizookie a try :) read more

We reserved the party room at the Redmond location for a very special milestone birthday a month in advance. When we arrived for our party they had given the room to a large group of teens going to a dance and had put us in the middle of the restaurant. This setting was much too loud with background noise for our guests, many of whom were elderly, and prevented us from being able to do speeches or reading of a poem as we had planned. Service was also terribly slow, causing the party to take three hours instead of 2. We were unhappy and will NOT host a party at BJ's again. read more

18.99 for Mahi Mahi tacos. Should have gone to Taco Bell. Not seeing any value or reason to return. For that price you could have a fancy sushi roll or 3 nigiri orders, a great bowl of ramen, a gourmet burger, or an excellent plate of pasta. We've historically had great experiences here. 5 star on manager and server for addressing it. read more

The butter was mixed in with some sour cream. The chowder with the prime rib was very good. read more

I've always loved this chain and the expansive menu it offers, and obviously delicious "pizookies". -Avocado Egg Rolls ($16.96) - super tasty! Love the sundried tomato and how creamy the filling was. -Pacific Poke Soba Noodles ($20.95) - A bit lacking on flavor, but the avocado was fresh and the tuna was of decent quality -Sante Fe Salad ($20.25) - Huge pile of iceberg lettuce with a bunch of toppings. I wasn't hugely impressed but, it was fine. -Salted Caramel Pizookie ($9.25) - A classic, ooey, gooey, sweet hot-and-cold goodness. There's a reason why these are famous! Jesse helped us out and he was great :) read more

The food was fine, but the service was terrible. Our server rarely checked on us, and when the food came, one person in our group only got half their order, and another waited about 10 minutes longer for their meal, which still came missing sauces. There was a lot of waiting between every request and a lot of having to flag down random staff members to get help. When it was time to pay (30 minutes after having finished eating), we asked to split the bill, but instead got multiple copies of the full check. After waiting another 10 minutes, we had to ask again just to get the bill. I paid in cash, and the change I was given made it impossible to leave an appropriate tip... he gave me a $20 and $1 bill. By then, we had already been waiting 45 minutes to leave and I had to go to the hostess just to get change. Overall, the food was okay, but the service made for a very frustrating experience. read more

I eat at BJs every now and then, The staff here are not the best. When we come we always sit in the bar. It took over 30 min for them to even bring us our drinks.

Again we only come here if they are the only place open on a late night just to grab a bite. read more

This is only a Pizookie review!!! We came here on Tuesdays since BJ's offers a $5 pizookie deal every Tuesday. The Hot Fudge Pizookie was probably one of the best desserts I've had in a while. The vanilla ice cream blended in perfectly with the brownie and the cashews provided a nice savory/sweet touch. The S'mores was alright, not as good as the Hot Fudge. I felt that the marshmellows were a bit much and didn't really blend well with the dish, plus they were a bit hard to eat. I would recommend coming here for a sweet treat on Tuesdays. I can't say much about the actual food, but the service was great and quick! read more

Our first and probably last visit ever. We stopped in for dinner last week since we were in the neighborhood and were completely underwhelmed to say the least. The restaurant is definitely dated, but we were seated quickly at 5:30pm and took some time to peruse the menu. Nothing in particular stood out, so I went with a bacon cheeseburger and fries and my husband did a chicken power bowl. Our server brought our son a complimentary garlic knot and side of strawberries, which was a nice surprise, but the food itself really fell flat. My burger was extremely dry and hard to choke down and the power bowl didn't seem freshly made at all. My guess is it was preassembled and the grilled chicken was placed on top. The guacamole was already turning brown and the chicken was quite dry as well. The pizookie was definitely the best of the bunch, but I wouldn't go out of my way to come here just for dessert. At this price point, I would much rather go to the Cheesecake Factory, where I could get similar, but better tasting food. read more

I eat at BJs every now and then, the first time in Albuquerque and a few times back in Oregon -- and up till now, I always looked forward to the experience. But not so with BJs in Redmond, Washington. For a $35 steak (plus drink and tip), the ribeye was tough, overcooked, and mottled with too much connective membrane (see photo if you dare). The asparagus had not had the ends trimmed properly and was withered and parched. I ordered a plain baked potato but instead was on the receiving end of a pile of pale flavorless mashed potatoes. The service? Competent but relatively flat and inattentive. I felt generous about leaving a fifteen percent tip. Depending on their reaction to my comments, this experience may have soured my relationship with all BJs in the future -- there are so many other Franchise steakhouses out there that my loyalty to this one is thin. BJs, wake up. read more

Unfortunately the low reviews for BJ's Restaurant are accurate due to the extremely poor quality food and customer service from the restaurant managers. We ordered several entrees from the menu, including the ribs with sides and the food was inedible. The worst entree were the ribs, which had an awful fibrous and sinewy texture like they were spoiled. We felt sick with symptoms of food poisoning after consuming less than 1/2 of our dinner. Wished we had checked out Yelp reviews and the food safety ratings by the health department for King County before visiting BJ's. The restaurant was shut down in May because the general manager was ill with norovirus (a highly contagious virus that causes acute gastroenteritis) and came into work potentially spreading the virus to all the staff and patrons. The health department shut the restaurant down due to the risk of a virus outbreak, but the general manager (think her name is Melissa) placed signs on the front doors that stated the restaurant was shut down for a maintenance issue, which was deceptive and completely untruthful. The health department has issued an unsatisfactory "Good" health rating for BJ's Restaurant after multiple inspections due to food being kept off temperature (not at the appropriate cold or hot temperature that is safe for food to be served to the public) and several other critical violations for unsafe food handling practices. We like to support local businesses & restaurants, but we will not be back since the management of the restaurant does NOT do a competent job of providing adequate customer service standards and fresh ingredients and food. It's also concerning that both the general manager and executive chef are not transparent with the community about safe food practices. Good thing BJ's has lots of competition as there's plenty of restaurants, cafes, & dining spots in Redmond and on the Eastside with an "Excellent" food safety rating (consistently followed high standards and had NO or MINOR unsafe food handling practices) serving delicious cuisine for us to visit instead. read more
