My first gluten-free (very sensitive) meal out. Was glad we made this choice. I had the burger and a side of broccoli and my daughter had a quinoa bowl. We also had a Pazookie with ice cream, YUM!! Food was delicious, service was great, and the staff didn’t make me feel like I was a pain for asking questions. The GF menu had numerous options.

Pizza was very good and that GF dessert cookie was one of the most delicious things I’ve ever eaten. I am very sensitive and did not get sick. Highly recommend.

Our family just had dinner here today, and I have to say the service was excellent. I called ahead this morning to ask questions about their handling of GF orders for those with Celiac, and David, the kitchen manager, told me they prepare all GF orders separately with dedicated equipment. (I didn't ask about a dedicated fryer since my daughter wanted the GF pizza.) David also said that they have one person who prepares the GF food in a separate location, and they will open new packages of pizza toppings to avoid cross-contamination. He also said that though they don't have vegan cheese for those with dairy allergies, we are welcome to bring our own and let him know when we arrive, and he'd be happy to put it on the pizza for us. I didn't worry about that, either, since my daughter doesn't like the vegan cheese my husband and I use. But it's really nice to know about that for the future. The GF pizza was brought out separately from the rest of the food and was delicious.

I myself ordered the turkey burger with the side salad. I am not gluten free like my daughter but I am dairy free, so I couldn't have any cheese on it, or butter on the bun. David came out to our table and informed me that the bun itself had dairy in it, so when my order came, there was no bun at all. I was so impressed! The meal was delicious and I can be certain that my family can eat here safely with no worries about getting sick afterward.

David was very helpful and so was the wait staff. I highly recommend this restaurant and will certainly come here again.

I can’t speak for anyone else’s experience but…My daughter has celiacs so eating out is a struggle, especially on the road. We picked BJ's bc they have gf buns. But they went above and beyond for my daughter. Our server Deja HANDCUT her French fries and then oven cooked them so there was no cross contamination with the fryers and had their manager cook her onions and mushrooms bc the kitchen was busy and she wanted to make sure it was right. I couldn't have asked for a better server or food for her!

I love their burgers/sandwiches. The server did warn me that the fries are cooked in a shared fryer, but it didn’t make me sick. So I guess they must change their oil out frequently or something.

I really love BJ’s as an easy place to eat out. They’re super knowledgeable about gf things and while I didn’t ask about specific practices, as soon as I said I had celiac’s, the server reassured me. And honestly the food tastes great. I had a burger and the gluten-free pizookie and it was delicious! My ice cream was even served from a brand new package to be extra safe. Didn’t get sick, would definitely come back.

Gluten Sensitive Option items marked on menu (appetizers, salads, entrees). Gluten free buns available for burgers. Gluten free pizza option. I had a Strawberry fields chicken salad with balsamic vinaigrette. It was average good.

The service was horrible, we felt like we were at an invisible table. The large group that arrived well after we ordered received their food before ours. And our 3 orders came out piece meal from the kitchen. We had to ask multiple times for items we ordered, for refills and for our change once we paid the bill.
