Bj's - Pensacola

My daughter and two grandsons treated me to a lovely dinner at your beautiful restaurant on Mother's Day.

Aside from salads, there are probably only 3 or 4 items that can be made vegan at this restaurant. However, everything tastes delicious and they have a good selection of beer.

Apart from salads, the restaurant has about 3 or 4 vegan options that can be modified. However, the food tastes delicious and they also offer a good selection of beers.

First time patron to this establishment. I was greeted upon entry by the lobby staff and given a 15 minute wait time for being seated. Comfortable little waiting area near the doors as they were not very busy at 5p on a Friday. Once seated our order was taken after about 10 minutes and drinks arrived to table about 5 minutes later. I didn't see my waiter again for another 15 minutes and then again 15 minutes later another staff member delivered the food to the table graciously. The food was presented well and temperatures hot and fresh as expected. I didn't see my original waiter for another 25 minutes. Once he returned to the table the bill was presented to me and I was told to enjoy the rest of my evening. If it weren't for the constant disappearance of the waiter and customer no service, I would rate this visit higher and plan a return visit in the near future.

This was my first visit to this restaurant, and I wanted to see if the outstanding reviews were justified. I was pleasantly surprised. Our waiter, Justin, was fantastic and knowledgeable about the beers and food options. My husband really enjoyed the lunch special of chicken Parmesan spaghetti, which was a great deal at $10. I decided to go with the soup and salad option, and I was blown away by the delicious wedge salad with blue cheese dressing. It was one of the best I've ever had, and I would return just for that alone! Unfortunately, the chicken tortilla soup was a disappointment as it had a gravy-like consistency, possibly due to the use of cornstarch as a thickener. Despite that, I would still give this restaurant 4 stars overall.
