    Been to several Hard Rock Cafes and this one was quite disappointing as far as atmosphere. Very little memorabilia and fairly limited menu.

    We werden vlot geholpen. Onze serveerster Mia was zeer vriendelijk en zorgde voor een vlotte bediening. Het eten was heerlijk, zoals we van Hard Rock gewoon zijn. Gezellige sfeer met goeie muziek.

    Very disappointing. Have visited numerous Hard Rock venues throughout the world and Times Square comes up short unfortunately. Whilst the food was very good, the service left a lot to be desired. Our server was polite and friendly, but we ordered starters and mains and the mains arrived almost at the same time as the starter, forcing us to send back the mains to be held back until we were ready. After our mains were finished, we felt rushed away from our table by the server clearing the table and bringing us the check without being asked, when actually we would have like to have stayed for additional drinks. As it is a very expensive meal and you expect the best experience, we feel like we didn’t recieve it. Very dissapointing.

    For the price the food and drink was average. There’s better places to eat in that area.

    I was super impressed with the staff at the NYC location! We had 13 people (3 adults and 10 twelve year old Girl Scouts) and made 2 separate reservations. I did not request that we be sat near each other but someone noticed the last names on the reservations matched and they linked the two. We had to wait 15 minutes for our reservation but the girls were pumped to have time to shop. One of the girls was carrying around a cinch bag that had broken so she found a backpack in the store to buy. The girl at checkout realized why she was buying the bag and gave her a Hard Rock cinch bag instead. Helping our Girl Scout rather than making a sale! What a great role model! This gesture made our girl scouts day and is a kindness we will all remember. Once we were seated we had 2 different waiters (which we were told about a head of time) who were fantastic! The gentleman had a table of 6 girls. He was great with them! Making jokes and just having fun. The waitress my table had was super attentive and kept up with refills before the girls had to ask. Never once did we feel like our large party of mostly kids was a bother. The food was also really good. The French fry’s were perfection! Everyone we encountered truly embraced the Love All, Serve All motto.
