The food was some of the best Mexican food I’ve had. The service was great and the waitress was very friendly and pleasant. They advertise some 400 different tequilas and I say there easily were. The bartender was very knowledgeable about different tequilas and where they were from. Overall a very enjoyable experience.

The food and atmosphere was very good! I got a custom burger with mozz, green olive, onion and hot giardanera on a pretzel bun. I loved it. Fries were really good as well as the fried pickled. Mule was good as well.

Don’t go here. It’s too good If more people come it’ll be ruined. One of those places you go to and it’s just like home.

A well rounded menu of bar food, burgers and salads at reasonable prices. Ice cold drinks and cocktails accompany the bar fare for a pretty enjoyable lunch or dinner. The servers are friendly and knowledgeable, and can accommodate most menu changes easily. Sit bar side or restaurant side or outside if the weather allows. Plenty of on street or city lot parking.

Good pretzel bites with Guinness cheese sauce, great burgers, the onion straws are awesome! Ultimate grilled cheese and sweet potato fries – delicious! And they even have Smithwick’s on tap! Good service! But the atmosphere pulls everything together for a wonderful experience! Highly recommend!

First time at PJ”s Courthouse. We biked to the restaurant from the place we were staying at and ordered our food “To Go” from the bar. I suggested I wait outside since the place was packed for dinner rush on July 3rd. Bartender gentleman said he would take it out to where we were waiting. We waited the normal 20 minutes and I decided to check on our order myself. I asked another waiter to follow up on the order I placed 20 minutes ago and pointed to head to the bar myself. Okay, awesome service so far. Found our food at the bar, the gentleman who i ordered from apologized that he forgot about taking our order out to us.

I’m from out of town and visited PJ’S to see a friends band. Everyone at PJ’S was top notch. Very friendly. The food was delicious and fresh. The prices were great. PJ’S makes you feel like your going to your friends house for a meal. We went back the next day because of the great service.
