    Our Server Raymond was wonderful. The food came out hot. They understood my salt issue and they properly did not salt my French Fries. We were glad we went on a Thursday night as the wait on the weekends is always very long. Definitely need Open Table Reservations for this Hard Rock Cafe.

    Had reservations for 8 pm on a Thursday. We were seated at 8:05, ordered our meal by 8:20 didn’t get our food ( which was only a hamburger and chicken nuggets and fries ) till 9:20. 1 hour to eat totally unacceptable. This place has fewer servers, they should at least give you something complimentary to compensate the long Wait. Very disappointed

    Beautiful restaurant, our waiter was exceptional, polite and very attentive. My husband is a veteran and has a Hard Rock Unity players card, our waiter thanked him for his service and informed us he will receive 15% off bill which we were unaware of. Wait time for your food is a little longer than usual and at night it’s a little chaotic and unorganized, I had called night before to find out what time they stopped serve breakfast and was put on hold ~ person who answered phone didn’t say a word, just kept me on hold forever ~ VERY RUDE AND UNPROFESSIONAL ~ food is decent for burgers, fast food ~ breakfast was great

    Hard Rock Cafe - Atlantic CityResponded on November 8, 2023

    I'm very sorry to hear about the issues over the phone with our staff, and we will be discussing this with them. For future reference our breakfast menu stops at 11am mon-fri, and 12pm sat/sun.

    By far the worst Hard Rock I’ve been too. Food was awful, you can tell was under a heat lamp for a while. Almost 2 hours for 2 apps, 2 entrees. Poor waitress was by herself.

    Let’s see… ordered a grilled salmon and steak, waiter returns stating they were out of steak. Five minutes passes and now they have steak. They must have run out to get it because we waited over an hour for our meals to arrive. The server did not check with us at all during that hour. We found the barely warm salmon dry and the steak passable. Let’s not even consider that we ordered the dessert to go. It was brought out plated. When we reminded him it was to go, he brought us a cardboard container and not even a spoon to shovel it into the container. Oh, it was ala’ mode. Hands down we won’t return.

Daughters birthday not recognized, reservations indicated her birthday. Pricing way over top, $90 for 2 Burgers and 3 drinks

    Best meal we have had in AC and we went to Hell’s Kitchen! We were so surprised that they did a public announcement of our anniversary and brought us two amuse bouches of ice cream sundaes with cherries on top! I will be ordering that next visit. Wait staff was attentive too.

    We ordered 2 sandwiches. My husband's came out and I dis not get mine. The waitress finally came over and I said can I have my burger. Mind you, my husband was half finished his I didn't want him to wait and his food get cold. She came back and said it will be out in a minute. 10 mins later, cane out and was poor quality. No flavor in burger and fries were cold, I disnt even eat half. I told her the manager needs to take it off the bill.
