Boozy’s Bar & Grill — Restaurant in Hazel Park

I really wanted to like this place, but my experience was disappointing from start to finish. The bartender was lackluster and borderline rude, which immediately set the tone. I decided to keep it simple and just order shots instead of mixed drinks to avoid more interaction.

We started with the steak bites, which came out extremely overcooked. When I brought it up, the bartender gave me attitude, insisting they were medium when they clearly weren’t. They did remake them, and the second batch was better, but by then the back-and-forth had completely ruined the experience.

We also tried the burger and the dip trio. The burger was decent once I added the toppings and condiments, but nothing special. The dip trio was okay, but everything tasted jarred, and both the queso and spinach dip got cold so quickly they were unappetizing within minutes.

Overall, the food was hit or miss, the service was unpleasant, and I can confidently say I would...

Food was good, drink was not what I wanted. The bartender was solo so I get he was busy but it was super hard to get his attention, he constantly looked irritated (I’m a server so I get being stressed but still), and when I ordered my drink finally, he didn’t wait to hear me when I said what kind of tequila I wanted in my margarita before he took the order of the girls next to me, so I ended up with one of their $5 house margaritas (taco Tuesday deal) which was literally just Jose Cuervo margarita mix. It wasn’t what I wanted and was too sweet but even if I wanted to order a second drink, he never gave me the chance. Waited 25 minutes to pay by card bc I didn’t have any cash. I just think it’s crazy that you can hand me a receipt after seeing my card already down on the counter and not take it immediately or at least swing back sooner. Time management is not their...

Boozy's opened at the beginning of 2025. Considering that, its character is more updated than your typical sports bar. People definitely come out for games, as there are multiple TVs for viewing.

The steak bites were cooked perfectly, and the zip sauce it was served with made them that much better. The zip sauce is made in house. The meatballs had a nice presentation, but could've used more flavor. The lamb chops were well seasoned, and were also served with the zip sauce. The 3 cheese mac was served in a skillet, and had a good mix of both blistered and creamy cheese. The sides of French fries and tater tots were both standard. Like the zip sauce, the ranch we requested with our sides is made in house.

If you're looking for a fun spot with good food to watch a game, Boozy's has you covered. The overall vibe and the steak bites were the...
