BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse

My son took me for a late Mother's day lunch today.
I had never been here before.
Everything was great.
Service was over the top with our server Mandy.
She was so nice,joked around with us and the best attitude I've ever seen.
She was very descriptive about the menu,just an all around great personality.
If you go there,ask for her.
I promise,she's great.
Whatever she is being paid,she definitely deserves a raise! When my son told her the reason for our lunch,she said she was in the back and just happened to notice that they had one wine glass left that they had gave to all the mothers that came in on mother's day and grabbed it for me.
How sweet and thoughtful that was of her? She didn't have to do that but I thought it was very sweet of her!

Food was mid for $120 for 3 meals an appetizer, and a glass of wine.
Took 10 minutes just to get a server.
Wings were over seasoned and served with warm ranch, and chicken Alfredo had no flavor.
Other two meals were great.

I have dined at BJ’s many times while traveling across the country, and I can vouch for their consistency and quality.
I know…it kind of goes against the whole idea of trying out unique craft breweries wherever you go, but I also know that I cannot always count on finding one when I need it.
I also know that those craft breweries are usually family-owned, and keep shorter hours. And that’s where BJ’s came to my rescue on a recent trip through Mobile Alabama.
I was delighted to find that they remain open until midnight, my only sit-down restaurant choice after a 9:30pm arrival at my nearby hotel.
Hallelujah! BJ’s was not just open, but also just getting warmed up.
Judging by the crowd, they have their regulars who know that dining and drinking into the night is a good thing. As per usual, I ordered BJ’s Brewhouse Bowl, a delightful mashup of quinoa, brown rice, black beans, roasted barbacoa cauliflower, corn, red pepper succotash, cucumbers, guacamole, and onions.
It is the perfect vegetarian option, but if you want to veganize it, simply ask them to hold the feta cheese and Greek yogurt crema.
If you yearn for some animal protein, add shrimp, To wash it all down, I went with BJ’s Piranha Pale Ale (5.7% ABV; 40 IBU), , one of the numerous house brews they create at five regional breweries around the US.
I tried to do my usual drinking around dance, but they were out of their Hopstorm IPA (6.5% ABV; 65 IBU), so I stuck with the Piranha throughout.
Three pints was just enough over two hours. And why two hours, you ask? Because they had convenient wifi, which allowed me to get some work done for a next-day deadline.
It sure beat working in my hotel room, and beer always makes the work go by a little more easily. Don’t ask if I’ll be back, because the answer should already be apparent.
I just can’t tell you which location it’ll be.
It will just be.
