This place is a solid option if you find yourself in the area. There's a full bar with bar-top seating, along with booths. The main dining area is somewhat separated from the bar. Between the bar and dining area, there's plenty of seating, so finding a spot shouldn't be an issue. Side note: I'm not sure if this place was built underneath a spaceship, but once you step inside, you'll have zero cell phone service. Definitely something to keep in mind if you need to make a call or stay connected while you're here. The menu is fairly extensive and features a lot of the typical favorites you'd expect from a tap house. Once I tried their Avocado & Chicken Club Sandwich, I was hooked. The ingredients are consistently fresh and well-prepared, the chicken is always tender, and the French roll is soft and fresh. Pair it with your favorite drink, and you'll leave satisfied. During all of my visits, the waitstaff has been friendly, attentive, and helpful. Overall, this is a good choice if you're in the area and looking for a casual spot with good food, drinks, and plenty of seating. read more

I ordered the veggie pizza, when it arrived I had a horrible realization: I already had this the last time I was here (I travel here for work periodically) and forgot that I didn't like it! It sounds great on paper but the execution falls short. For whatever reason they don't cook all the veggies with the pizza, instead, they heap on a bunch of raw veggies after it comes out on the oven so it's kinda like a salad. I'm guessing it's too much moisture to cook down all those veggies, in which case, put less veggies! The toppings should all be cooked! I'm leaving this review not only to inform you but to remind myself when I go back in 6 months! Also the wings were too vinegary. Pork belly bites were delish, service was fast and friendly. Round up from a 3.5 because they're better than the 3 stars they're currently at, all things considered. read more

I really wanted to love this place since it's really hard to find a nice good meal here in Manteca I have no idea why. We stopped in after seeing a movie the service was slow but it wasn't a bother since we were chatting about the movie we just watched. We ordered a sampler with some chicken wings mozzarella sticks onion rings and a few other items which I didn't eat. The restaurant was not crowded but service was still slow. When our steak sandwiches arrived they looked great the steak was a little plain but we did eat it r joyed the onion rings We enjoyed our time here but not sure if we will be back. read more

I went here for lunch on a weekday with two friends and it was not busy at all. But despite that, the service was slow. I think there was just one waitress working. I got the minestrone soup (delicious ) and then asked for a simple grilled chicken breast with well steamed broccoli. Both were good and to my liking. My friend got the fish and chips and it was just one huge piece of breaded fish and the fries were super soggy. He didn't eat very much of it except for a bite or two. For me, the food was good, but nothing I would go back for. And my dining partners didn't seem too impressed with their food. read more

I was here to watch a World Cup game and had a great time. They had a nice big video screen for watching. The drinks were good and generous. I really liked the combo platter and a dessert of monkey bread. Very good friendly service from the servers. read more

Food was delicious, wide variety, decently priced and the service was great! Air conditioning worked great.

It's kinda like a BJ's, but the food was NOT good at all. The only reason why we went because it was an easy walk from my hotel. The staff didn't seem like they care about their customers; not attentive at all. The food tasted like it came out of the microwave. We had a party of 4. Didn't enjoy our meals. Price was reasonable, but food is not good. read more

Poor customer service. 20% gratuity for a party 6+ Arrive on a weekend at lunchtime and there was only 1 server! We had a group of 10 but broke into smaller groups. Some group were seated and was never served. The other half were waiting in the waiting area as we were told it was a 5 min wait. Price of food is overpriced. Our entire party - ones seated and in the waiting area left to Red Robin read more

My daughter and I moved down from San Jose and are use to going out to eat often. Manteca doesn't have a huge selection of restaurants that are up to our standards but we came across DJs (formally Pete's when we began dining here). We have now been coming almost weekly for the last six years. The food and service is always on point! Vanessa, Emmanuel, Paige, and Ana have always made us feel like family. We've come for birthday dinners, graduation dinners and any special event, DJ's is our go to! Thank you to Vanessa and the rest of the staff for making us feel at home and giving us our go to spot in town. read more

This place used to have great food. We loved everything. I especially liked the Thai shrimp. We went there today. The food was horrible. The service was very slow. My Thai shrimp was really different. When I said something, the server told me they had a new vendor. It was on the menu like it was the same. It tasted like the box of panko shrimp I get from Costco. My son's burger was overcooked and hard. My grandaughters pizza was barely cooked. Very disappointing. The food was costly and my waitress said I hope you come back but don't order the shrimp. I will not be back. Horrible the food I bought to go, was so bad it was thrown away after a couple of bites read more

Ahi tacos have a nice kick to them. If you like spicy these are for you. Came in on a Wednesday afternoon wasn't very busy. Staff tends to hide in the kitchen here. They do make the rounds but if you're looking for great service this probably isn't the spot for you. read more

The last time that we had been to this place was when it was called Pete's Brewhouse (I think). A year or two ago. Anyway, we went here yesterday and we were glad that we chose this place. We came in between the traditional lunch and dinner seating times. The place was not too crowded so we were seated quickly. I wish I would have taken some pictures of our meals. The food came out pretty fast and was delicious. We had the Steak Sandwich and fries which was tasty and cooked to perfection. My daughter and son-in-law had the Chicken Avocado Club and Southwest Salad that they split and enjoyed. Our server (Heather - I think that was her name was very attentive and had a nice personality. We enjoyed our meal and dining experience. If you are in the area you should give DJ's a try. read more

DO NOT GO HERE UNLESS YOU WANT TO PAY FOR THEIR PG&E BILL!! I reviewed my bill and noticed at the bottom I was being charged 3% for SUMMER PG&E! The waitress said it was because they use more AC in the summer. Absolutely ridiculous! I will never step foot in this restaurant again. The food wasn't anything to brag about. Fish was overcooked and dripping grease. Horrible experience! Also, we moved outside because it was too cold inside. read more

For a taphouse, the beer selection was pretty underwhelming. The service was fine, except for one hiccup. I'm pretty sure I was served the wrong beer by mistake, as my beer tasted like mango when it should've been a dark ale that I've had before. When I confronted the waitress, she assured me I was imagining things and I was stuck drinking the contaminated beer. My main concern is that the bartender may be making unacceptable mistakes. Since the prices are high, I'm setting my standards to match. The pork belly appetizer was chewy and the fried wontons were stale. The fish and chips tasted like old oil and the fish was tough since it was overcooked and probably frozen. They were closer to fish sticks than fish and chips. I do not recommend coming as it is too expensive for casual dining, too poor quality for the prices, and they can't even pour a beer correctly for being a taphouse. read more

Waited 45 minutes for food and nothing and got bad attitude when we asked about our food order don't waste your time coming here

Food was really good I'm not from the area and this was recommend by my husbands co worker. I was very pleasantly surprised

The server attached to take our order before we had a chance to look at their lengthy menu. We were a group of 6 with 1 child and arrived on June 1, 2026 at approx. 5:30 pm. I had asked for a water to start, practically no ice in the glass. I ask 3x for a cup of ice alone. I was half way through my meal before receiving it. I ordered a bowl of chicken soup for $12.99. It could not have been more than about a cup and a half. It was not hot and bland. I believe a can of Campbell chicken noodle would have tasted better. It contained chicken broth, a minimal amount of shredded boiled chicken, carrots rounds and thick noodles. Served with 2 packets of saltines. My husband and another member of our group ordered pastrami sandwiches. They might have been 4 slices of meat on each. They were served on a roll. The other 3 meals looked better and the group members said they were good. They ordered steak foccacia, steak salad, and a chicken roll. We ordered 9 drinks. The food and drinks were over priced, from my meal being the cheapest at $12.99 to $25.99 for the steak salad. They also charged a 20% gratuity automatically because we were a group of 6. To get to the restroom, you have to walk behind the serving station. I will not be going there again. read more

Had dinner here back in September. Boyfriend ordered a pasta dish. I believe he got the spaghetti and meatballs. I ordered the California burger. Both dishes were good. We tried one of their pizza's before and it tasted good as well. Overall food was good but service was kind of slow. read more

First time at Dj's. I sat at the bar, the bartender was attentive. He quickly provided silverware and a small appetizer plate. He asked what I wanted to drink while I looked at the menu. They have 24 beers on tap. 2 which are rotating, the cider and an IPA. I ordered the fish and chips. It arrived with house made coleslaw and the tartar sauce was missing. The bartender, provided the tartar sauce and sliced lemon when I asked for some. Visually, it looked really good. The fries were slightly over fried. The coleslaw has a heavy onion taste, I didn't like it. The fish was perfect, beer battered and crispy. The tartar sauce was too zesty, citrusy. Overall, I had a good experience. My plate was 6/10. The service was great, the environment was chill. I'd come back to order something else's. read more

Almost didn't come here because of the poor reviews but it was conveniently close to where we were shopping so took a chance. Not sure what others have experienced but the food was great!! Tons of beers on tap and bartender was very helpful. read more

Had a party of 11 celebrating my daughters birthday. We had warm waters, ice melted by the time we got them. We were hardly checked on and the waitress brought out my daughter's cake unlit with the candles still in the box, extra plates were brought out but no forks. No one came out to sing. We ended up lighting the cake ourselves. It's really not a cheery place. Food was blah, It's really gone downhill from the last time I've been here. read more

The food sucks. Calamari is frozen and rubbery. We ordered Alfredo tortellini, it was disgusting. We ended up ordering another dish. The Alfredo tasted like it came from a jar but make it bargain brand. I should have gotten a picture of it, but we ended up sending it back. We voiced our concerns to the waitress and she said, "oh I like it". Cool bro, you like nasty food, IDGAF. She was not happy with us after. It's not like I said she cooked it and it was bad... We sat on the patio it was a nice day. I don't think people had been out there for a while, there was garbage and leaves all over the place. They did sweep while we there tho.. so I guess it was alright. Thankfully they did take the tortellini off of our bill. Definitely will it come back again. read more

The personalized pizza was " bomb" ; the price was well worth it. The amount of toppings were generous & carefully placed on a delicious crust & sauce Being greeted & seated by the friendly & helpful , Omar, set the tone for the evening.

I didn't know Pete's had a change of ownership, BUT I will say that the food, the service is really good in my opinion. Today I went to this restaurant with my family, it was also a good decision because it was filling. The way it looks inside though, it feels like it didn't change. I didn't know what to order first and for me I was torn between the Spicy Chicken Alfredo and the Fettuccine Alfredo. I did end up picking the Spicy Chicken Alfredo. It is a 7.5/10 for me and I have to say that the dish felt underwhelming because I expected a lot of flavor by looking at it. I will say that the chef does know how to cook the chicken because it is juicy and tender. My family has chosen to get the BBQ Chicken Pizza, Garlic Chicken, and the Succulent Ribeye. FIRST OFF, GARLIC CHICKEN PIZZA IS SO DAMN GOOD. 10/10 If I were to recommend anything to get to anyone, it would definitely be the Garlic Chicken Pizza. It taste so hearty and flavorful. The BBQ Chicken Pizza is also very good and I love how BBQ has a good layer that doesn't make BBQ to bold to taste. 9/10 THE CHEESE PULL. the pizza has the CHEESE PULL!!!! The Succulent Ribeye aka "Steak", I was taken by surprise by how tender and juicy the steak is. I have went to many restaurants that serve steak and it is dry but this steak was tender, juicy, and flavorful. I recommend that people should come by and eat here, the energy is lively, the waitresses are really nice, and they do play sports games and leave it on too. read more
