The Heart and Soul of Youngstown Restaurants

Welcome to BJ's Brewhouse! BJ's originally started as a pizza shop before they became a brewhouse and restaurant. Now, years later they offer 18 delicious unique pizzas. Ranging from a tavern-cut, deep dish and made-to-order combinations. They craft their hand-pressed deep dish pizza dough to be double proofed. Meaning the dough rises twice, which makes it look and taste better making it difficult to have only one slice. Here are some of the great things this local restaurant has to offer!
