Carlsbad, CA – BJ’s Restaurants Now Open In Carlsbad

Categories: Carlsbad, Restaurants

Carlsbad, CA - You may have already heard my thoughts on our lack of great, moderately priced chain restaurants in Carlsbad, Encinitas, or Oceanside.  These cities all are known for their many, amazing local restaurants, especially along the 101, but just never have focused on those great family locations, where you can pack up the kids and meet friends for a casual lunch or dinner. 

We were so excited earlier this year to see that Carlsbad would be getting a new PF Changs AND a BJ’s Restaurants!  Right across the street from the Carlsbad Premium Outlets, we drove by about once a week to see the progress!  As BJ’s Restaurants and PF Changs have been open less than three weeks, they seem to always be busy, often with some substantial waits.  Also, as we entering the holiday shopping season, expect much of the traffic from the Carlsbad Premium Outlets across the street to make the restaurants even a bit busier than normal. 

The BJ’s Restaurant menu is diverse and substantial, and everything we have ever eaten at a BJ’s has been fabulous.  Their salads are super fresh, and the portion size on everything we have ever seen is huge!  Again, this is one of those restaurants that you could go share something and still be plenty full! 

At a time when Carlsbad families are typically being a bit more frugal, it is great to have a couple more moderately priced family restaurants!  Go try BJ’s Restaurant out, either on its own, or as a part of your holiday shopping.  I don’t think you’ll be disappointed!
