BJ's Brewhouse

This past week GNO took us to BJ's Brewhouse.  Luckily after a long work week this restaurant is only a 10min drive from our work.
We attempted to go try this place a couple times, but I'm really glad we decided not to go the first week they opened.  Although, I feel that they still have some kinks that need to be fixed.
The wait time for a party of 2 on a Thursday at 6:30pm was 30min.  We were called sooner than 30min., but the hostesses made a mistake and gave our table to another couple so in actuality we did end up waiting 30min if not longer. (and so begins the frustration)  The hostess stand had 5 people working, seemed as if they were all running into each other.  After their mistake and them telling us we were next they proceeded to seat 2 parties of 2 and 3 parties of 3. (so much for being next)

Although we were standing right next to the hostess stand we were slowly being forgotten.  Melissa went around and talked to one of the hostesses to remind them we were still waiting.  They were waiting for a 2 top to open up so they didn't have to put us in a 4 top.  They sucked it up cause they sat us at the 4 top.  lol 

The menu was literally a book of choices, it reminded me of The Cheesecake Factory minus the advertisements.  I would say that almost half the menu is just different drinks they serve.

I was surprised with how fast the food came to the table.  The presentation was nice and the proportions were plentiful.  I ordered fish tacos, which came with 2 tacos, sides of salsa, guacamole and tortilla chips.
Our service was absolutely terrible.  We only saw our server a few times and she had other servers take care of our table.  It was as if our table wasn't really in our server's section.

My meal was good but I would probably not eat here again.
