BJ’s Restaurants Opens in Cincinnati, Ohio

HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif., Nov. 20, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BJ’s Restaurants, Inc. (NASDAQ: BJRI) today announced the opening of its restaurant in Cincinnati, Ohio (“Rookwood”). The new BJ’s Restaurant & Brewhouse opened on Monday, November 19, 2018, on a free standing pad on Edmondson Road at the Rookwood Commons & Pavilion, one of the city’s premier open-air shopping destinations. The restaurant is approximately 7,500 square feet, seats approximately 230 guests and features BJ’s extensive menu, including BJ’s signature deep-dish pizza, award-winning handcrafted beer and famous Pizookie® dessert. BJ’s unique, contemporary décor provides the perfect environment for all dining occasions. Hours of operation are from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 midnight Sunday through Thursday, and 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. Friday and Saturday.

“We are excited to open our 5th and last restaurant of the year,” commented Greg Trojan, Chief Executive Officer. “Rookwood is our 12th restaurant in the state of Ohio and our second restaurant in the Cincinnati market, joining our Tri-County Mall location, which opened in 2008. Our 2019 new restaurant pipeline is in excellent shape as we currently plan to open seven to nine restaurants.”

As with all of our new restaurant openings, BJ’s invited members of the Cincinnati community to attend a soft opening event prior to our grand opening. As our team members put the final touches on the restaurant, invited guests were treated to complimentary food and had the opportunity to make a voluntary donation to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, a very important charity to BJ’s. Additionally, BJ’s donated the proceeds of all alcohol purchases during the soft opening event to the BJ’s Restaurants Foundation.
