Dining area and bar
Daniel C.

The food is amazing, especially the Southern Fried Chicken included in the Pizookie Meal Deal, available Monday-Friday. I'm a regular here because it's so close to home and work, and the service is always friendly and efficient. It's never very loud - the vibe is low-key and chill. More often than not, the music also slaps.

They are open but refusing to serve food due to short staff. That's crap! BJ is dropping.... what happened to service?

Strawberry Shortcake Pizookie Triple Chocolate Pizookie Made With Ghirardelli Chocolate Chunk Pizookie

Have been here a few times and have never had any issues. Great environment! As a restaurant it has the main needs for a sports bar. Good selection of beers and alcohol, Large TVs everywhere (most playing sports) but with a additive of good quality food. More of a upscale sports bar. Never really had a issue with service here. But they when they are busy, expect it to take longer than normal Today I got the Brisket burger! This burger is delicious. The brisket is smoked perfectly and a nice juicy burger to match it. Side fries are crispy and are a great side for this burger. For dessert the wife and I got the trio pizookie Triple chocolate Strawberry shortcake Chocolate chunk If you get anything to eat here, it has to be a pizookie. They are best in class here.

Loaded Nachos

I came here with other family members as a request of my college going niece who wanted to celebrate her birthday at BJ's on pizookie Tuesday ($4 pizookie special). We did not make reservations before, but were able to make reservations the day of for a large party of 10 adults and 2 babies under 1 who would require highchairs. They were very accommodating and were able to set up a table and have it ready for us at 7pm. Service was fast. We ended up ordering apps and dessert. We got the calamari, 2 orders of the nachos (without meat), and 9 pizookies. Omg, the nachos were huge! We almost fell like one would be enough to share. We still had some left over and were super stuffed. The nachos were good though! We ordered strawberry shortcake, hot fudge brownie, salted caramel, chocolate chunk, and triple chocolate pizookies. The favorites of the night were the salted caramel and strawberry shortcake. One thing, we would have appreciated is bringing out the pizookies after we finished the apps. The ice cream on the pizookies started to melt as we were still working on the nachos. Overall, a good evening that made my niece's birthday.

Chips and Chips & Housemade Guacamole Salsa
Bri V.

Very average experience. We came into town around 9:40 and most places weren't open or were closing soon so we settled on BJ's. It was happy hour. I ordered a margarita and husband ordered a beer. We also got mozzarella sticks and chips with salsa and guacamole. The margarita was pretty sweet and ended up hurting my stomach so I only drank half of it. The snacks were both good. The salsa was a bit spicy and the guac was actually made fresh, which we were surprised by. When the bill came the margarita was not priced to reflect happy hour but the snacks were and I even pointed to the happy hour menu when ordering. Overall it wasn't bad but we weren't wowed either.

Delicious cookie with ice cream,  wonderful texture.

We needed to find a place to watch the football game, celebrate a birthday and be close to several families. BJs was perfect for all of this. They also took reservations, which was one of only a few that would during Ohio State game. I can't say enough for the impeccable service. From the hostess who let is change tables and set up a little section for us, to our server Shannon. She was truly amazing. She made us feel like we were her only table. Drinks were continually refilled without asking. She was so pleasant and helpful. We never felt like we were being rushed, even though we were at the table for a few hours. We started with a jumbo pretzel, excellent! Tavern Pizza was phenomenal and the cookie dessert with ice cream was amazing. Thank you Shannon for the great service and probably the best waitress we have had in months.

Ordered food to go....found a bottle cap in my couscous Mac and cheese. Glad I didn't bite into it!

Tiny portion of Baked Ziti for $18.00.  It truly barely covered the bottom of the pan.  Unacceptable.
Joe N.

Lousy BJ's! Like most restaurants, BJ's has raised their prices and giving smaller portions. That said, the Baked Ziti I ordered for delivery was unacceptable. I posted photos with this review to show the pathetic portion size. The Baked Ziti was $18.00 and it barely covered the bottom of the small foil container it is served in. The pictures I posted were taken before eating a bite. The sides of the foil container are the same height of a traditional pie tin or pot pie tin. I've ordered the Baked Ziti for years and I can honestly say that the portion was only about 1/3 of the portions I've received in the past...AND IT WAS MORE EXPENSIVE! I also ordered a Jalapeño Burger well done and as usual the burger patty was undercooked and red inside. Gross! I've stopped dining in at this BJ's location because we have consistently encountered rude service, chili that is warm at best, and received severe attitude from the hostess when I requested not to be seated next to a table with two screaming children. If I am dining out and spending hard earned money for a meal and drinks, I don't want to sit by a table with screaming kids and parents that just let their kids scream and let them do whatever they want to do, and I certainly don't need rude remarks and dirty looks from someone who looks like they are still in high school and dressed like a bimbo. BJ's looks nice inside with plenty of TVs and it tends to be loud in general. The table tops are sticky even though they look clean. I do like some of the food at BJ's, but I won't return to the location nor will I order carry out or delivery from this location. It is consistently poor.

Mediocrity at all levels of dining is rampant today. We found a beautiful exception to that…read morescourge at the Pearl in Dublin, Ohio. We love to have drinks and dinner at the bar ever since we met Patrick, Kyle, and Lindsay. We love the atmosphere and the food is the best part. The magic of seeing the cocktails being prepared is part of the fun. Never a dull moment. Today we had the privilege of meeting a handsome server named Asher, and he was cheeky and fun and had a dynamite personality. Kudos to all the amazing young men at the Pearl. It is a true gem and one we always love to frequent. Thanks for the memories, each and every time! Jenn Utley and Ron Shumaker

My family and I dined at The Pearl Dublin on December 23rd to celebrate my cousin's birthday while…read moreshe was visiting from Montreal. While there were a few minor service issues, our server was kind and attentive and acknowledged the celebration with complimentary desserts, which we truly appreciated. After dinner, my cousin and I went to wash our hands and use the restroom. At the time, all stalls were occupied and one was out of service, so we waited. When a stall opened, my cousin kindly let me go first. I finished and stood outside the stalls waiting for her for about three minutes. During that time, I noticed several people going in and out of the restroom area. I also saw a man sitting in a chair along the hallway wall near the stalls, hunched over. Shortly after, a woman exited the restroom and grabbed him to leave. I thought nothing of it and minded my own business. I also observed the executive chef enter one of the restroom stalls. When my cousin exited, she mentioned that the stall smelled strongly of smoke and that three girls had exited the stall before she entered. She said the stall smelled like marijuana but used it only because it was the only option available. She also pointed out that the man sitting outside appeared to be associated with the group who had been in the stall. We then returned to our patio table where our family was seated. Our server brought out her birthday pie along with another complimentary dessert. She blew out the candle, we shared dessert, and we began preparing to leave. A few minutes later, while we were still seated on the patio, the general manager, Nick Krafft, approached our table accompanied by Executive Chef Michael Wagner. We initially assumed he was checking in on our experience. Instead, he immediately stated, "I'm going to have to ask you not to smoke in our restaurant and bathroom," directing the accusation at my cousin and me. We were completely taken aback by both the accusation and the manner in which it was delivered. We calmly explained that it was not us and described exactly what we had observed in the restroom. We stated that neither of us smoke and never have. We even offered to have our belongings checked and explained that we had not taken any jackets or purses with us to the restroom, as our family remained at the table. Despite this, the general manager refused to listen or consider our explanation and continued to place blame on us. He did not speak to our server, who had interacted with us just moments earlier while bringing out the birthday dessert, nor did he attempt to investigate further or de-escalate the situation. As we were leaving, my fiancé asked the general manager if he actually smelled smoke on either of us. He responded "yes," which was not true, and continued to push a conclusion he had already formed. No apology was offered. We spent over $1,000 celebrating a family birthday at a restaurant we had trusted and enjoyed in the past. Instead, the evening ended with my cousin's birthday being overshadowed by an unfounded accusation. There were many guests dining that evening, yet blame was placed solely on two women who had simply used the restroom. I am a Nurse Practitioner, and my cousin is a special education teacher for autistic children. Neither of us have ever smoked. Being accused in this manner was humiliating, hurtful, and completely unnecessary. I was later contacted by the regional manager, who was understanding. However, I believe this situation highlights the need for better investigation, accountability, and staff training to prevent similar experiences in the future. A personal apology from Nick, acknowledging his actions and taking accountability, would be an appropriate step forward after innocent guests were wrongly blamed and a birthday celebration was ruined.

I was a bit hesitant going in because it's been years since the last Yelp review -- that lack of recent buzz (good or bad) felt concerning. On a Saturday night, it wasn't overly busy, so we didn't have trouble getting a table (they don't take reservations but do accept call-aheads). I ordered the burger and onion rings, and both were genuinely delicious -- I was very happy with my food. Unfortunately, the experience wasn't as smooth for my friends. One has a severe seafood allergy, and she was shocked to learn that all fried items (fries, onion rings, etc.) are cooked in the same oil as the seafood. It made her nervous to order much else from the menu, and we almost walked out when we found out. A separate fryer or dedicated oil for non-seafood items seems like a basic accommodation these days. Two other friends are recovering alcoholics and were disappointed that the only "non-alcoholic" beer option still contained a slight amount of alcohol. Their only other choice was a sugary mocktail, which isn't great for diabetics either. In 2026, it's surprising that a restaurant/bar still struggles with these common dietary and lifestyle needs. The food we did eat was solid, but the evening felt dampened by the lack of basic accommodations. There are plenty of other places that handle allergies and non-drinkers much better. I would have scored them much higher if they could have accommodated this basics.

While we had a reservation at 8:45, we decided to eat in at the bar after having the most incredible espresso martini of our lives and talking to John. My sister and I opted to share multiple courses - each of which was better than the last. It was an amazing experience and we were lucky enough to compliment and thank the executive chef in person.
