I have eaten at BJ's four times and I am a fan! (I was really surprised by this place, because I'm NOT a big fan of chain restaurants).
The decor is spacious, relaxing, and enjoyable.
I've had great service on all of my visits, in fact on my recent visit, the waitress had brought out samples of various salad dressings for us to try when we were inquiring about the salad choices.
Once thing I really LOVE about their salads is that they make their own dressings from scratch. I hate places that use dressing from a gallon jug laced with Sodium Benzoate (nothing like that nasty after taste!). The salad portions are HUGE and plentiful (enough for 2 to share OR take the other half home for leftovers).
They are a bit pricey, but they do offer $5.95 Lunch Specials.
