I never have a bad experience at Bj's. I love everything about it from the layout all the way down to the Pizookie! The microbrews are great. I really like how they suggest certain foods with the different beers they offer.
The pizza's are great. I have never been to Chicago, but it's nice to be able to get a deep dish only a few miles from where I live. The pizza's may not look gigantic but don't let that fool you they are feeling. The staff are awesome the place is always clean and there is always A nice buzz in the place. There hasn't been a single time that when someone suggests Bj's I say no. The place is great.
