moldy croissants with odd blue dye, muffins hard as rock, and impatient disrespectful staff. particularly the big heads. worked here for a few months and saw so much BS fly under everyone's radar that would NOT be okay in any other store I've worked at. especially other bakeries. but money is money i suppose.
We were in the Cary area for a family wedding and went to dinner with family including two young grandchildren. With a group from 4 to 60’s selection of an appropriate restaurant is sometimes difficult. In this case, BJs was a good decision. We had been to restaurants elsewhere of the BJs chain, with mixed results. In this case, the choice paid off. Our server, Olivia (and all assistants), were wonderful and interacted great with the children and adults. Food choices at BJs are plenty, for both young and old. We got our drinks in short time, followed by the appetizers. All very much enjoyed. Dinner entrees included Salmon Power Bowl, Bacon Cheeseburger, Santa Fe Salad, and BBQ. The children’s meals were good as well. We had more drinks, and closed out with the deserts for the young and old. All in all, this BJs exceeded quality of other restaurants in the chain, and overall a good choice for the occasion.
The deep dish pizza we ordered was just ok. As a native New Yorker the pizza was sub par, but the draft beer recommended by our waiter was extra good.
Many great food choices, restaurant had a good, noisy, happy, cheerful atmosphere, good for families as well as adult groups. The ribs were to die for.
Two of us had never been here, so decided to come after a visit to the nearby shopping area. Wait was not too bad....but sat a family with a child in the bar area. Hmmm.... Waitress was good, attentive enough. I had a burger and chose some soup instead of the fries. Wrong decision...had a bowl that was maybe 1/4th full....soup was just ok, did not taste home made. Would not recommend. Burger was good, lots of lettuce and pickles, but very think slice of tomato. We got the nachos to start. There needed to be a lot more cheese on it and only a very small cup of salsa was given for the huge tray of nacho's. We added chicken which we would not do again. Wings were "just ok" for one person Chicken sandwhich was "ok" but not the best from another. Kids tenders were good. We got the cookie trio dessert and it was small, but good. Not sure we will return.....Just ok, not worth the price paid in our opinions.
We found this restaurant while shopping nearby. The line was out the door and the parking lot packed at lunch! Once seated our waitress was awesome and very attentive! We ordered cheese curds as an appetizer, they had a very light breading that I’ve never had before on cheese curds but was very good! For our meal we shared a deep dish pizza. One of the best deep dish pizzas we’ve ever had. The crust was puffy and buttery. Every bite was heavenly. Our waitress told us that the chain started out specializing in pizza in California and a lot of people don’t even know how great their pizza is. We visit Duke several times a year and will definitely be back!
We stopped by for a early snack to share because my husband was craving chicken nachos. The place was empty but appeared to be well set up for social distancing. They had a descent size beer selection (but I thought a place called a brewhouse should have lots more and a better variety) but lots of them were fruity or sour beers and that is not what we like. My husband found an IPA that he liked but after tasting the stouts they had I found them not to have much flavor so I just had water. The nachos were okay (we've had better) but the service was excellent.
We used Open Table to make a reservation. It worked like a charm. We were immediately seated. Our waitress came immediately and took drink orders. After taking our orders, she kept checking on us. The food came out quickly. The food was good and service impeccable. An overall wonderful dining experience.
Food was OK, typical chain restaurant fare. 30 minutes before closing, the entire wait staff was bent on kicking out customers. They turned lights on, hastily tried to take our dishes, turned off TVs...all before closing time. Felt very rushed. Restaurant closed at 10 PM, we walked out on 10:01. Definitely did not feel welcome. Clearly a management leadership issue. We won’t be back anytime soon.
I've had the pan pizza there and I have had a bacon cheeseburger with fries. The pan pizza was good, though expensive for what you get. The below-average meat quality on the burger plus the over-cooked bacon made it not as good as a burger from, say, Red Robin, Backyard Burgers, or Outback. The fries were burnt. The kitchen supervisor should not have let that plate go out. The first time I was there, the service was somewhat lacking (water glasses never got refilled; the check was wrong). The server on the second trip didn't want to be at work, and it showed. At a minimum she was rude, and it would not be a stretch to say that she was insulting. She is simply in the wrong job. The restaurant business is not a good fit for somebody who is unfriendly. Not something that her manager can train her to fix. She lacks basic interpersonal skills. Too many other places to eat. Will not go back and cannot recommend it.
