This bar & grill, attached to a hotel, had some great food and even better vibes. Live music, a quaint outdoor seating with heat lamps, and incredibly kind service and staff. I loved my margherita pizza and the spinach & artichoke dip was great. If I'm ever in Mahwah again, I'll be sure to visit this spot! read more

Booyah - Margherita Pizza - Desserts Near Me - Mahwah, New Jersey

My family and I were visiting Legoland and decided to check out this place. I was a little weary about ordering octopus from a restaurant next to a highway, but we were pleasantly surprised. It was fresh, tasty, and tender, and all of the flavors with the calamari blended perfectly. I also ordered the lamb chops medium-well, and they were amazing. They came with delicious mashed potatoes, perfectly charred asparagus, and chimichurri sauce. Everything came together really well. The food was fantastic! The service was friendly and hospitable. We were seated in a nice booth overlooking the restaurant, and our waiter was attentive without overdoing it. You know those restaurants where the server checks on you so much you can barely get a bite in? This was not like that. The service was just right. It was Friday night, and the band was setting up while we were there. Our food didn't take long at all, and it surpassed our expectations. By the time we left, the restaurant was starting to fill up, which I can definitely understand. My family and I highly recommend this place! Great food, great service, and a great atmosphere. We'll definitely be back! read more

At first I was skeptical but decided to try this restaurant since I was staying at the adjacent hotel, The guy at the bar , Santiago, was very nice and attentive. His service was impeccable! I ordered the strawberry cocktail( first one on the list).... It was good but I wish I went with the mojito. Every plate that came out with food made me want it! The servings were huge so you get a lot for your money. We ordered the calamari , wings and the Seafood Capellini. The calamari was one of the best I have had. The wings were to perfection and my platter was extremely tasty! I asked if I can change the lobster sauce to marinara sauce and they changed it with no problem!!! It was waaaay too much food, so I will have leftovers for lunch! The ambience is very cool and laid back with light music in background. I will definitely return. Hands down read more

I ordered the grilled chicken salad - it was freshly made and plentiful. My friends ordered burgers and fries and were pleased. Service was spotty but overall fine. read more

Came here with my friends after the New York Renaissance Fair. The restaurant is next to and technically connected to the Double Tree there, but we didn't stay there and had no problems parking and dining. Food was absolutely delicious! My group enjoyed everything they had. The highlight was the spinach and artichoke dip with pita- a MUST HAVE!! My burger was also cooked exactly how I wanted and the fries were tasty. I tried my brother's margarita pizza that he order and that was amazing too. The service was good, but the inside of the restaurant was very loud with a band playing, so we chose to sit outside. Outside was very lovely though. Will definitely return next time I am in the area! read more

What a great little place. The menu was good. They had a good happy hour offer. Anna, one of the bartenders made a great paper plane. I had the octopus and calamari grilled plate. It was very tasty. They also serve breakfast but alas I have to meet a colleague at a nearby cafe, so that will have to wait for next time. read more

Interesting and looked promising... I had dinner as it is next door to the hotel i was staying at, which you can access from inside the hotel. I often look for hotels with a "restaurant on premises" when i am traveling so that i don't have to go back out for dinner. Service was slowwww even though i was practically the only one there. Everyone was starting to break down for the evening and kinda ignoring me. It was an hour to closing, so I ordered the pasta and broccoli to be safe. The next morning there was buffet breakfast set-up. It's a pretty big place with tables and booths and a big semi circle bar. They had the windows open to the street side and it was kinda chilly. There was a couple eating at a booth near me, and for breakfast I was the only customer. Breakfast food was kinda cold- i looked and saw that the sterno cans had gone out. "Well breakfast is almost over" was the response i got when i mentioned it to a server. Then i listened to her and another employee talk about their schedules practically right in front of me the entire time i was eating. Not a great selling point for hotel. read more

Run don't want to support this great establishment!!!! If you're looking to enjoy a full night out filled with incredible food, fun drinks, and a seriously good time, Booyah! Restaurant & Bar in Mahwah is absolutely worth checking out. The menu is a delightful mash-up of comfort classics done creatively--with standouts like the NY Strip Steak, Pasta Carbonara, Chicken & Waffles, and fun desserts like Nutella Pizza Pie or Molten Lava Cake. Everything comes out fresh and flavorful, you can tell the kitchen really cares about the details!! Nom nom!!! But what makes this place really different isn't just the food. Booyah! leans hard into the vibe, with a throwback theme full of 80s, 90s, and 2000s nostalgia that makes the atmosphere feel playful and fun. On top of that, they keep the entertainment calendar packed. One night you can catch a comedy show, the next there might be a murder mystery dinner, live music, trivia, karaoke, or even a throwback dance party. It honestly feels like you get dinner and a show all in one spot. The happy hour is solid too, and if you're into sports they've got screens everywhere so you won't miss the game. It's a place you can go just to grab a drink after work or make a whole night of it with friends. In short, Booyah! delivers on both the food and the fun. Honestly I don't usually write reviews but I felt like this one deserved it, there's not many places around here that make the whole night out feel this easy and entertaining. read more

Came here on a whim as it was suggested to me by Yelp. At the Double Tree hotel by Hilton in Mahwah between upstate NY and 20 min from the GWB (NYC). This place came as a sweet surprise!! Jason our server (a student at Ramapo college) was excellent this was his 3rd shift at this restaurant and he was so nice!! The place was very empty with just two other tables occupied when we arrived. The restaurant itself was very nice and updated had very nice seating and a nice bar. Would be a great place to rent out and throw a party. They have happy hour during the day on Saturday & Sundays and the prices were good. I ordered the chicken wings (6) very nice and crispy with just the right amount of buffalo sauce and truffle Parmesan fries (huge portion) and they were crunchy and delicious too, Meanwhile my husband had the Cheeseburger and French Fries lunch special and he enjoyed it very much. I also ordered two speciality drinks which were $10 each and didn't disappoint, I had two different ones and they were both delicious made from Santiago the bartender. They seem to have a lot of things going during the week... karaoke, open Mike night, comedians etc...We'd love to come back for a comedy night and see what the vibe is like because I'm sure there must be more people and things too look around at then when we went. I hope the place stays I hope Jason is still a waiter if and when I go back since he was so easy to talk to and you could tell a hard worker. Overall I give Booyah an A for food & service. Again would like to go back just to see the ambiance at night, and hopefully we do that soon!! read more

The food was amazing! The atmosphere was great (it was karaoke night). The staff is excellent!

they start with the food and customer service was great and the bartenders know exactly what we needed to do and exactly what drinks that we wanted. The ambience was awesome and again I can't express enough that the customer service is great. and my my server and a good friend now is my greatest bartender Brendan the best you better watch out for him... you really wanna read more

This is for the horrible service we had at the bar, it was a guy and a blonde girl. As BARTENDERS maybe train them on how to talk to your customers instead of brushing them off while we were trying to order. Food was great. I rather have the cooks serve us instead of them. read more

My wife was excited to try this place out , so we went with a friend to give it a try. The vibe is nice and I loved the decor and the music was great. For the service, it leaves you wanting more. My wife and my friend had ordered a Apple Crisp (or something along those lines) Hot Toddy , the first time it came I saw ice so I thought maybe there is another drink on the menu with a similar name and it's served cold. However when we had inquired, our server promptly stated no it's not supposed to be cold. I was scratching my head as to why that is, so both my wife and friend walked for the actual beverage and they received an iced lukewarm Apple Crisp Hot Toddy. We waited for our food for about 45min and during the length of time twice we mentioned where is our food, the first time we were told something along the lines of "should be coming out soon, any second now". And while we waited I was looking around and noticed our server just casually chatting with the lady in the front who had seated us , not sure if she was the Floor manager (although she wasn't dressed like anyone in that position) or if she was just a greeter of sorts. No one came to say "sorry for the wait we have a banquet next door" , my wife was told in passing as we were heading out the door. I don't know what the total bill is as our friend footed the bill. I just hope the tip was minimal or non existent because this was poor management if they are not able to juggle two aspects of the establishment. I might give it another shot, however I won't hold my breath or keep my fingers crossed. read more

Wife and I wanted some good bar food. Decided to give this place a try. Glad we did - burgers and fries were real good and I highly recommend the onion rings. There was a band playing, a little loud but too be expected. I set mediocre expectations before getting here but was pleasantly surprised. I will be back for sure. read more

We were a party of 8 for the Easter brunch this morning. I had no expectations of a great breakfast buffet because usually they are lacking. HOWEVER, I was pleasantly surprised!!! The buffet was very good!! Everything was outstanding (especially the chicken tenders)!!!! Jason was our server and he was terrific!!! He was very attentive and personable. We are looking forward to going back to try out the dinner menu!!! read more

We went on St Patrick's day around 5pm with a baby, they have high chairs and boosters. There weren't many customers there, which I preferred. There was good nostalgic music but not too loud, cute 90s trivia cards, and MTV and sports on the many tv's. We had burgers, the Clint Eastwood and truffle Mac and cheese, they were exactly what we wanted. Not a gourmet burger, but a solid bar burger. Fries were very crispy and good, vanilla milkshake was nice and thick too. Staff was very friendly, place was clean. I'm not sure if I would try all the menu items, like the salmon. But any bar food item I'm sure they will knock it out of the park read more

The service was 10/10 stars because they played old 80's and 90's music which was nice. The food was incredible I also got chocolate cake!!

Excellent service by Scott. We went for Saturday afternoon Happy Hour. We had loaded nachos(not part of the happy hour) as recommended by Scott, sweet red chili wings, pizza, and truffle Mac and cheese. All excellent!! We will be back read more

Fantastic food and great service. I've come here multiple times for dinner and sat at the bar, and have never been disappointed. Every entree I've tried is delicious, and the bartenders and servers are all very friendly. Very lively on karaoke and open mic nights. Highly recommend giving this place a try! read more

Not quite sure how I missed it but Yelp let me down this time - it's my own fault for not checking the review count more thoroughly - can't win them all. Food was mid at best - service was also just okay, had to ask several times for certain items. This is an odd one but the water was horrible!! Music and atmosphere were cool enough though, the 90's trivia cards kept us entertained while we waited for our food - definitely won't be back but I guess the experience otherwise was somewhat redeeming. read more

I absolutely loved this place the first few times I tried it. The last few times I went, the food was way over salted and over garlic-ed! But the food is the reason I kept going back. Unfortunately something should be said about the service. The servers don't seem familiar with the menu or the bar options. They're very friendly but it's frustrating to ask a question about the menu or a drink and your waiter doesn't know the answer. Also hire another one!! Clearly these poor guys are struggling. He barely came back to the table, didn't bring bread, didn't refill our waters, didn't check if we wanted another drink, didn't ask how the food was, took forever to get our check after multiple requests and took a long time to bring our to go boxes. Ayayayay I'm not sure it's worth another visit! read more

The food is FIRE, the service is ELITE and the ambiance is AESTHETIC. *Adjectives borrowed from ChatGPT, but pretty much sums it up. Never had a bad experience there. Only once, I was told that I needed reservations (not sure what was going on that night) and was turned away, but every other time, no wait and there was plenty of room at the bar. read more

Amazing service , great vibes, great drinks and food, will definitely plan to come back soon! Tina provided amazing service!

Excellent food. Friendly staff. Ordered the Brussels sprouts and sweet red chili wings-excellent

My wife and I went to Booyah to see what the food was like, and because they are catering the New Year's Eve gala at the Doubletree Hilton next-door. We were mad at the door by Carol, who showed us to our table and will absolutely make sure that your evening is a delightful one. We ordered fried calamari and garlic Parmesan wings, and they were both perfect and delicious. As an entrée, my wife had the pork chop marsala, and I had a fantastic Burrata salad with sliced steak (medium). Although it was only a salad, it was fantastic. Very tasty and the steak was cooked perfectly. My wife's pork chop marsala was also cooked to perfection and came with delicious mashed potatoes and asparagus. Our server was named Santiago and he was so attentive and so pleasant to be around that I can't recommend him any higher. All I can say is if you haven't been to Booya for drinks, snack, snacks, or dinner I suggest you hightail it over there as soon as possible and see what all the good reviews are talking about. 10 out of 10 for me. read more
