While flipping through the extensive 30-page menu, a customer at BJ’s Restaurant and Brewhouse may feel overwhelmed at first. After browsing through dozens of meals and appetizer options, it’s safe to say that BJ’s brings a lot of options to the table, but is it worth the wait?

BJ’s is a brand new restaurant located on Hall Road and has experienced an extremely warm welcome from Sterling Heights residents since its opening earlier this year.

With entrees ranging from fresh deep-dish pizzas, sandwiches with varying combinations and slow-roasted ribs, it’s safe to say that the restaurant has something that everyone can enjoy on their menu. The food tastes good, to say the least, but may not be worth the wait (which is normally an hour or more) to be seated if a customer is especially hungry.

The food is reasonably-priced considering it’s quality and quantity, which is of the utmost importance at this restaurant judging by the insane amount of fries that come with the entrees. For cost-conscious people, BJ’s courteously offers many opportunities for discounted meals, including online coupons and free appetizers or desserts as incentives for using their app to complete surveys.

Not only does the menu have sensible options, but the service at BJ’s is impressive considering how busy it usually is. The servers are very accommodating and take care of customers quickly. Having been there more than once, I have yet to have a server get an order wrong or felt like I had been forgotten in the dinner rush.

The atmosphere is a casual, family-friendly place for many customers. Though there is an adults-only bar occupying a large part of the establishment, it is not discouraged to bring young children to BJ’s. It’s not fancy or quiet, so it’s a great place for residents of Sterling Heights to meet family and friends for lunch or dinner, making it a significantly popular restaurant in this area.
