There’s always a problem when I come here. The service is so slooooooow tonight. I just waited well over an hour for my food to arrive. It was only pasta. Maybe they had to go catch the shrimp in the ocean, and that was the reason for the wait ! I’m terribly disappointed. I love BJ’s, but I won’t return to this location. The one in Cerritos, is the best one by far, but a little out the way. I will take the extra trip by any means just to avoid this location.

Spicy Brussel Sprouts from BJ’s Restaurant and Brewhouse. This place is never going to «Wow» you but they have a huge menu and some tasty dishes. I’m impressed how busy this place was at 11pm at night. Almost full in the bar area. So they are doing something right. Love the bar setup with the huge TV. Good beers on tap. Love the Avocado Spring Rolls and the Sante Fe Spring Rolls. Both dishes are perfect Bar food. Lots of flavor. The Spicy Brussel Sprouts not as good. It’s so hard to make Brussel Sprouts taste great. The Ratio of good dishes here are low but they take the Cheesecake approach and give every option possible. You did catch more fish with a huge net. They also dominate in the Del Amo area. They are always busier than PF Changs, Ra Sushi, Buffalo Wild Wings, Stacked, and Lazy Dog. Smart business model.

Food is always pretty good here and prices are quite affordable! Our server today was awesome. They have several tv’s to give the place a sporty vibe. It’s almost always really busy in there so it’s not our favorite place to bring a toddler but they were really good with her and their kids menu has many options. The bathrooms were really dirty though. No toilet paper in any stall and overflowing trash. As someone who worked in the restaurant industry for a long time I know this is completely unacceptable.

Counter staff at the waiting area are complete idiots, imbeciles. Disinterested, unfriendly, bossy, you name it these biyches are all negative. I believe the attitude is fostered from the 6’4 giant female Chewbacca manager that is rude and domineering to the staff. Don’t question her, or you gonna get the«best don’t be questioning me child!» Food is average.

Came here for a late night snack since I just landed back from a long flight. Called at 11 regarding last calls which was 5 minutes before closing time. The employee on the phone was nice and she seemed well informed of their policy. Got there around 1115ish and asked for a table of two after waiting about 5 mins for someone to approach us. A man and woman walked up and told us the bar area was open, but we didn’t want to sit at the bar so we asked if we can sit at a table. He then ignored our request and said the bar area is open? My friend and I was confused. We told them we called earlier. The guy proceeded to tell us the dining area is closed at 11, and the bar area is only open up until last call. Then he looked at the girl and they started to whisper something to each other and the girl looked confused. It was pretty awkward for us standing there while they whispered to eachother. I feel like the girl wanted to seat us in the dining area, but the guy didn’t. I didn’t want to make it a bigger issue than it was so I just decided to sit at the bar area to find an open table and to our convenience, all the tables were dirty, but he called someone over to clean it pretty quickly. seated and ordered right away with Raymond. He didn’t seem too enthusiastic while taking us. We got the two for $ 25 deal which consisted of a pizza, pizookie, and soup or salad for us both. We asked to just make everything at the same time and just to bring out whatever came out first because we knew it was late. Raymond didn’t really understand and kind of gave an attitude saying«can I bring out the soup and salad first?» And I kept repeating myself and he kept repeating himself lol. After the whole ordeal he understood. I just didn’t want him to wait on us finishing our pizza to start making the pizookie since it was already 1130 and they close at 12. Everything was fine except my Caesar salad. It was funny because there was literally only ONE croûton on my salad.(Refer to my picture) I was literally so baffled at how there can only be ONE croûton. And this was literally the cherry on top of everything that has unfolded so far. I was discouraged to eat it, but I just landed from a long flight and just ignored it. I was going to ask for some more croutons, but no one came around until the pizza and pizookie came out which came out at the same time which was perfect. At this point I just wanted to get out of there which I asked for the check when the pizza came. I paid right away, and tipped 40% of the bill just for my memorable bad experience. Raymond peeped the tip amount after returning with a Togo box for the pizza. We could tell his mood changed and seemed a little more happy to serve us which he then offered another refill of lemonade lol. Don’t wanna get into that. But yea left the establishment and looked around to see that we were not the last customer there. Yay. ANYWAYS! I wanted to inquire to management about what their policy was regarding their dining area hours for future reference, but I came to a conclusion that I just shouldn’t come anymore. I was a server part time and understood everything that was going on. I would never treat customers any different even if they came in one minute before last calls. Treat them how you want to be treated! Thanks BJs!

My friend and I went here for lunch and ordered a bunch of things together: Calamari — So delicious I finished it. Mozarella breadsticks-Delicious! Bacon Chicken Wrap with Fries(thin) My friend got: A rack of ribs with thick wedges Poor cow! =( The best part of the lunch? The oreo pazookie with vanilla ice cream! =) My friend spoiled me! I got raspberry iced tea refills too while my friend had a few beers. This BJ’s was located at the Del Amo Mall and it was nice to walk around and look at some stores when we hardly go here. I LOVE coming to BJ’s brewery with a friend and kicking back, chatting, enjoying the good food and good company. Our bill was nearly $ 100, which is CRAZY. Lucky we had some leftovers! I love coming to BJ’s Brewery when you are with a friend and want to chill and catch up.

as soon as we got there, we sat down and ordered drinks. Our waitress was not only rude but she only offered the boys at my table new drinks. I had to ask for multiple things twice. When our meal arrived, this is what she brings me. these are Brussel sprouts, they were small burnt leafs of Brussel sprouts.

Had a great time with my bro and my wife Got a pitcher of beer, deep dish ziti, jambalaya and a some shrimp penned dish. All the food was delicious and the servers, who switched off for a lunch break, were both great! Shoutout to Cindy and Kristina! Will be coming back! We were told we had to wait 20minutes for a table but only took five. Both servers we had were really attentive, kind and a delight to be around. Service was slightly slow but it was a full house, nothing on their end they can do. Gotta be more patient when you know they are slammed and you will have a great time. :)

We went here on a Friday afternoon to have lunch and was quickly seated… Pros: The food was good coupled with the drinks. Cons: Although the restaurant was not packed, 30 minutes and a flag down later, we were given water. Service sped up and it went ok but it seems like this location has an abundant amount of staff with poor service. I will give it another try if all other eateries are closed in the Del Amo Mall area.

In general I like BJs as a chain. When I’m feening a warm cookie with vanilla ice cream, this is the place to go! This location is just outside the newly renovated Del Amo mall… or whatever new name they’ve called this mall.(It will always be Del Amo Mall to me). Everytime I’ve come, parking has been a bit challenging. Maybe because it’s close to the movie theaters and several other restaurants. But anyway, their food is decent. This place is good for those who like chain restaurants and traditional American food. There’s pizza, burgers and pasta options . The service is hit and miss. Sometimes it’s good, sometimes it’s bad. It is what it is. Yes, I’d still come back!

This is quickly becoming one of my favorite restaurants. I was in Cali, and went to this location. I came in with a party of 4, but changed to 6 and they were super accomodating about the last minute xhange and it was literally just a 5 minute wait. The server we had was great, she was there to keep us happy and came by just enough. The appetizers: we chose the avocado egg rolls. These were warm and tasty. We also had my favorite spinach artichoke dip. Omg I could have licked the bowl. Entrees: I chose the New Orleans Jambalaya. It was the perfect level if heat in your mouth. The serving size was huge. I couldnt even eat all of it. The bread that came with my meal was so good I wanted to ask for a couple more to take home. Libations: I had a «tickled link» cocktail. it was so good, it had absolut vidka, chambord black rasberry liquer, peach snapps and pineapple & cranberry juice.(Sounds good right??) Im looking forward to going back and trying sonething else soon.

Came here for lunch with a coworker. It’s located at the Del Amo mall. Plenty of parking available nearby. There’s also outdoor seating. It wasn’t super busy when we came so we were seated promptly. Our waiter took drink orders right away and gave us a minute to order. I had the Asian chopped salad. Came out in about 6 minutes. Flavors were good. Ingredients weren’t soggy. The pieces of chicken were huge. About the size of the square outlet piece of an iPhone charger. Pretty basic salad but was satisfying. Only downside is the price of the dishes. It can get expensive; especially for lunch during the workweek.

Meeting up at Del Amo we came here for some drinks and shared a large pizza. Drinks were fine, descent selection and fair prices. Pizza was ok, one of their better menu items. Service was fine, not stellar, especially when they are busy it can be a mess getting refills or adding anything to order. Restaurant gets pretty noisy, not an ideal date spot, but fine for a few drinks while in the area.

Came in Tuesday night around 6:30pm and we did not have to wait in line! Awesome! Caley was our server today and she was amazing! She was very attentive and got everything right :) We love coming to BJ’s and indulge our guilty pleasure of eating pizza once a month. We would definitely come back for more next month!(We limit ourselves to 1 pizza night per month…) We had BJ’s favorite deep dish pizza, golden beet salad, and birthday pizookie. Everything tasted great! I loved the fact that we did not have to wait in loooong line. Going there during the week is definitely recommended for relaxed dinning experience.

The review I would give this restaurant is pretty much the same review that I would give to any BJ’s location around the L.A., OC area. It is a large, well-designed space made up of a lot of booths and some tables. The food is as expected — just like all the other BJ’s. It is pizza based restaurant and is pretty good. In fact, I’m am a big fan of the various pizzas at BJ’s. They do have other offerings but pizza is their primary focus and it has been my experience that is always the best choice when you eat here. They also have a nice selection of beers which, of course, go well with pizza. As is the case with all BJ’s the staff here is nice and friendly. How good your service will be is highly dependent upon who your server is. Just like all the other BJ’s this place can get very-very crowded. When it is, expect a very loud and chaotic atmosphere. So, the best time to go is on the off hours. In terms of food, this location offers a breakfast menu. The breakfast dishes are mostly pizza styled entrees. Which is the best way to go. They do have traditional Americana style breakfast; i.e.: eggs, bacon, and pancakes, but the one time I ordered this, my eggs arrived supremely cold. Not good! So, my suggestion is to stay with what BJ’s does best, pizza style food. This BJ’s is right off of two large outdoor parking lots in the outdoor section of the Del Amo Fashions Center, so though these too can get full and crowded, parking is generally not too much of an issue. Overall, BJ’s is BJ’s, eat here if you want some good pizza and beer.

BJ’s is always a nice place to stop in while walking through the Del Amo Mall in Torrance. There are definitely many options to choose from as you’re walking through the outside area, but BJ’s won’t disappoint! You have your choice of sitting outside on the patio or inside where there are several booths and small seats in their bar area. This location is along the Del Amo mall on the Carson side right across from the Vegas seafood buffet. The wife and I come here at night after work to order some food and a flight of beers. If you like deep dish style pizzas, they serve a variety of different pizzas with sizes and toppings of your choice. The one thing I do suggest is to save some room for dessert, as they serve a warm cookie pizza(what they deem a «pizookie») with a scoop of vanilla/chocolate ice cream. It’s honestly the only reason we try not to order too much food when we come here!

Summary: Great drinks, solid food, excellent service, reasonable prices, and ample parking(except for when crowded). This is a great place to grab a bite or a drink before or after a visit to Del Amo Fashion Center. My wife and I have been coming to BJs for lunch or dinner pretty often recently. It had been a while since we had been, but then we had a great time and kept coming back. Usually we will get one of BJs many awesome house beers, the sriracha brussels sprouts, santa fe spring rolls, the ahi poke, and the queso dip. All of these items are delicious and affordable. We often aim for happy hour or Tuesdays since it is happy hour all day then. We also love the PB smores pizookie. Talk about a sugar rush. The service is always attentive and friendly, and the restaurant is usually hopping with people. As long as the experience continues to be excellent, we plan to keep visiting.

It’s been awhile since I’ve reviewed this place! Service is still great! My friend and I sat in the bar area because we wanted small bites and some drinks. We didn’t notice that they blocked off the booth we sat at because there was a pipe leaking in that area. When the waitress came to let us know, she began to move us to another table in the bar area. A guy was just about to sit at the table but she politely told him she was escorting customers to the table. Yay! We ordered a round of bloody marys and the garnishings that they put in them was sooooo delicious! I wanted to just order a side of it! It was an olive, a pickled string bean, and some pickled thing that looked like a tiny grape-sized bell pepper. We also ordered the avocado egg rolls which were pretty good and calamari but the best part of the meal was of course, the pizookie! We decided to get the s’mores after asking the waitress if we should get the trio or just get one large s’more since they don’t allow it as an option in the trio. She suggested to get the s’mores and we were definitely not disappointed!!! It was soooo delicious!
