Time counts at BJ's Restaurant & Brewhouse. Since our humble beginnings back in 1978, we've continued to refine our brewhouse experience to make BJ's a place where you can make the most of any meal. We want BJ's to be a place where the moment you leave is the moment you plan on coming back. We pride ourselves in our craft and attention to detail. Our guests come here for our award-winning handcrafted beer. They come here for the Southern California twist we've put on the Chicago-style deep dish pizza. And they come here for our Pizookies®, our world-renowned dessert. But above all we know people come here to make their good times better. So in many ways we haven't just crafted a brand, but a mindset. And our guests are the reason for this. And it's because of them we're continually striving to make sure every moment they choose to spend with us counts. Welcome to BJ's, a restaurant with a Brewhouse soul.

Good To Be Here! Serving Pittsburghers since 1930. Whether you're enjoying our food at our restaurant, at home, or at a wedding - Atria's makes it Good to Be Here. Atria's History The original Atria's in Mt. Lebanon was owned by Italian immigrant Joe Atria and dates to 1930. It began as a grocery store, then expanded into a barbershop and dry cleaners. In 1933 prohibition ended and Atria's began to sell beer. Along came food to feed the hungry - both highbrow attorneys and blue-collar working men alike. In 1998, Pittsburgh natives Pat and Nancy McDonnell transformed Joe Atria's historical Mt. Lebanon landmark into an upscale casual restaurant that today serves up American classics in neighborhoods all around the Greater Pittsburgh Area

    Sat at the bar for Christmas and our bartender was absolutely amazing. Wish I could remember her name because she deserves a raise. Everyone who works Christmas deserves a raise, hell all service workers deserve raises 40 years is to long to be making $2.68 an hour. Those of you who don't tip at least 20% should be band from all restaurants!!! Shame on you. The food was amazing as well. Kudos to the cooks and dish washers. You make the place run.

    I booked a lunch reservation in advance without knowing it would be a different prix fixe menu. I would have preferred the regular lunch menu with a prix fixe option. That being said, the options provided a nice variety and the food was delicious. The service was outstanding, and I can’t say enough about our friendly and professional server. I appreciate the fact that the restaurant was able to provide us with a memorable experience.

    Tina, our waitress, was attentive and friendly. It was noisy, being Xmas Eve and seated adjacent to a loud, large crowd with lots of little kids, but you can’t avoid that on Xmas Eve no matter where you choose to dine. All up, a nice meal out.

    Burgers were only warm, french fries cold. Chicken alfredo was extremely dry and I needed more sauce. I had to wait 10 minutes for my food while everyone else had theirs. Very disappointed.
