 BJ's Restaurants, Inc. to Present at the 5th Annual Cowen and Company Consumer
  Conference and Also Provided a Revenue Update for the Fourth Quarter of 2006

     HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 4, 2007--BJ's Restaurants,
Inc. (NASDAQ:BJRI) will be presenting at the 5th Annual Cowen and Company
Consumer Conference in New York City on Tuesday, January 9, 2007 at 10:30 am
(Eastern). Jerry Deitchle, President and CEO; Greg Levin, CFO and Greg Lynds,
Chief Development Officer will be presenting on behalf of the Company. The
presentation will be broadcast over the Internet at the Company's website
located at http://www.bjsrestaurants.com. The broadcast can be accessed by
clicking on the "Investors" link from the Company's home page followed by the
"Presentation" link. An archive of the presentation will be available following
the live presentation for 30 days.

     The Company also provided a revenue update for the fourth quarter of fiscal
2006 that ended on January 2, 2007. Revenues for the fourth quarter increased
approximately 34% to approximately $65.9 million compared to $49.2 million in
the same quarter last year. Sales for comparable restaurants increased
approximately 5.5% during the quarter and successfully hurdled a strong 5.3%
increase in comparable restaurant sales for the same quarter last year.
Additionally, the revenue contribution from the Company's newer restaurants
exceeded management's expectations during the fourth quarter.

     "Our strong fourth quarter sales results continued the positive top-line
momentum that BJ's has enjoyed during all of 2006," commented Jerry Deitchle,
President and CEO. "Our comparable sales increase of approximately 5.5% for the
fourth quarter marks our 41st straight quarter of positive comparisons on that
metric. Additionally, during the fourth quarter, we set new Company records for
the highest sales ever in both a single day and week at one of our comparable
Southern California restaurants. Also, we were very pleased with BJ's gift card
purchases by our restaurant guests during the fourth quarter. Purchases of gift
cards increased approximately 8% in comparable restaurants during the fourth
quarter, and total Company gift card purchases increased a very strong 60%
compared to the same quarter last year. These strong gift card purchases have
the potential to begin benefiting our top-line results in early 2007 when
post-holiday card redemptions start to occur."

     The Company remains confident in its ability to open as many as 13 new
restaurants during 2007 and thereby achieve its targeted growth rate of 20% to
25% in terms of total restaurant operating weeks during the year. All
prospective locations for 2007 new restaurants have been identified and secured
with signed leases, purchase agreements or letters of intent. As of this date,
six restaurants are in various stages of actual construction for potential 2007
openings.

     BJ's Restaurants, Inc. currently owns and operates 55 casual dining
restaurants under the BJ's Restaurant and Brewery, BJ's Restaurant and Brewhouse
or BJ's Pizza & Grill brand names. BJ's restaurants offer an innovative and
broad menu featuring award-winning, signature deep-dish pizza complemented with
generously portioned salads, sandwiches, soups, pastas, entrees and desserts.
Quality, flavor, value, moderate prices and sincere service remain distinct
attributes of the BJ's experience. The Company operates 11 microbreweries which
produce and distribute BJ's critically acclaimed handcrafted beers throughout
the chain. The Company's restaurants are located in California (35), Texas (8),
Arizona (4), Colorado (3), Oregon (3) and Nevada (2). The Company also has a
licensing interest in a BJ's restaurant in Lahaina, Maui. Visit BJ's
