One could venture to Buffalo Wild Wings to watch the boxing match that night, and grab some wings. A trip may be made to Dave & Busters to play arcade games during halftime. The right pick, the smart pick, goes by the name of BJ’s.
Hence the title, BJ’s, is most notable for it’s signature deep-dish pizza, so thick it’ll leave the consumer smiling on the way home.
BJ’s was founded in Santa Ana in 1978, by Leonard Allenstein and Jim Kozen. It can be found in 30 states around the USA, with 27% or 59 of the 215 restaurants being located in California. They tend to be visited by sports fans, especially adult males, as they have many screens with games and they have bars with many alcoholic options. Families go as they have a good-sized children’s menu and their famous pizookie.
It may become crowded but that is because it is popular, but a booth will arrive quite quickly, and it becomes slow paced as it is just watching sports waiting for maybe 20-30 minutes for the big meal. BJ’s restaurants are neutral in theme, consisting of booths, usually visible breweries, and sport games/advertisements. Displays of art and photos are typically that of athletes and action shots. Screens vary from any type of sport at any level of professionality, but typically the main ones, like if a championship boxing match is occurring, that will occupy most TV’s but not all.
The thick, chewy crust of the deep-dish pizza fills the stomach. The perfect ratio of sauce and cheese makes a savory pop on the tongue, the taste buds so pleased that more slices than the stomach may even allow will be consumed. The deepness of slices make each one jumbo sized, yet so many are eaten as if they are tiny. Many get some delicious, salty french fries to accompany the aforementioned delight. Sure to better the day, the fries smell like sunshine and light up the mouth. A typical fan favorite for drinks is root beer, a great combination of sweetness and carbonation; it is the best of both worlds, sure to please those who even don’t appreciate the soda sort of taste.
Pizookie; this humongous, hot cookie topped with ice cream and sauce is good enough to not have dessert for a whole week after it. With 10 options of cookie and the consumer’s choice of chocolate or vanilla ice cream, the treat pairs well with the previous meal. The warm cookie heathens the mouth in a desirable way, softly consumed by the welcoming teeth. The ice cream slides through the mouth, easy yet sweet.
Pastas; not everyone is a pizza fan, or maybe they are and are hungry for some more cheese and sauce. The pasta has the savoriest cheese that combats that of the pizza. Devouring the bowl faster than someone can say to start eating is a given, as every bite is as desirable as the incoming pizookie.
Be sure to find a good booth, as positioning well for a screen with the preferred game is a must. It’s a sports restaurant! So whether it’s a home run, a knockout, or a mesmerizing goal, be sure to not miss those big screens! Enjoy the time cheering on the team, relaxing with or without the family, munching on some BJ’s delights.
