NY steak and Norwegian salmon were very well cooked. The staff is extremely friendly and relaxed. Music is well curated and not too loud . We were able to do conversation in a normal fashion.

Bianca Cappelletti

If you like the music of the 90s, this is the HR with the best memorabilias . Almost all of it dedicated to what some called "grunge". Two floors of memorabilias . Rooftop is a must see!!!

Shirley Wiltsey

Java Lava burger is good, lots of flavor.Fries hot and tasty, special dips for fries are a joke. Servedtartar sauce and thousand island dressing . Ben&Jerrys milkshake topped with CoolWhip????!

Victoria Stewart

The staff has a great vibe, and it's very clean here. The rooftop bar is small but lovely, however, extremely loud .

Cristian González

Excellent for a party and the view at the rooftop is incredible! You can see Pike Place Market so great.

HHHagono Frank

The 'best' single malt whisky is only 12 year old. This is the US, understand, but Hard Rock can't be forgiven for not having the best of the 'GLEN-'

SeattleMonorail

Great happy hour and live music ! They have a stunning rooftop deck that is perfect to hang out on during the summer. Yummy food, awesome memorabilia , and more!

Ali Coluch

The food is good from what I've had so far. The drinks are good. No over pour so its too strong but not light so you're getting ripped off. Also depending on the time and staff you get great service.

adriana castro

Usually is amazing this time I wasn't having that much fun

Mike Mondejar

Ate the Rockin' Wings Heavy Metal style. A little hot for me. A bead of sweat rolled down my forehead. The nachos were ok.

Sherry Ren

Love their potato skin . Very cheap during HH. Rooftop is nice when the sun is out.

Benjamen Hebert

This place is fine. The bartenders are great (never met a server, so can't vouch for them) the food is great, especially happy hour prices. I don't hate it.

Hard Rocker

Great souvenirs. Friendly staff . Only validates parking from certain garages .

Grantley Towell

Had friendly and excellent service. Good food. Will leave a good memory.

David Carpenter

Every three months the teen artists from URock invade for one Sunday night show. Lotsa fun, great rock 'n roll.

Virgilio F

Not the usual Hard Rock “atmosphere”, place looks cold and empty. I was there for a private event and the food quality was less than average. 10 beers on draft the only good point.

Alex

Come here for the rooftop view ! Few people know about it

Hiten Vasa

Check out their Rooftop Bar . . . . Could be fantastic, if with the right crowd !!!!

Juan Zuno

Don't go when it's busy, it only has 2 coed washroom stalls for all the restaurant and bar

Daniel Shaw

It's worth stopping by if you need a late night bite to eat.

Elizabeth L.

One of the very few rooftop bars in Seattle. Perfect for summer.

Lorena Nascimento

Great rock collection from Seattle musicians .

Justin Sena

Don't forget about the upstairs bar during happy hour if its a little cramped downstairs.

Richard Palmer

Ask for facts. For instance, did you know this building use to be a pawn shop , the one Jimi Hendrix bought his first guitar in?

Ryan Hazy

Good food strong drinks !

Javarr Requeña

The best burgers in town

Meganne Hoffman

Tony is the best bartender ! Great attitude and big smiles. Can't beat that AND good drinks!

Moe Dexler

Cool place to vibe.

Justice Calo Reign

Go into Shannon Whaley's section. She's smokin hot with a personality to match.

Mike Denman

Ask for Bobby - the best server in the joint. And tip him well !

Ellie McHale

I know you can't expect amazing service from a chain. But this place is service repellent. I think there is an anti-service forcefield surrounding it. Yikes.

Lindsay M

Try the chocolate mousse -- it will change your life!

Jane Hudson

Staff is SO RUDE. I don't care if you deal with tourists all day, you don't question locals about if they are going to purchase something when they ask for directions to the bathroom ! Eat my tampon!

Bryan Weber

Amazing Burgers , you have to try them!

Heather King

I can't STAND bad bar service . As someone who use to be in the industry it's not hard to put on a fake smile! Nd pls notice my money laying on the bar top for the last 20 mins cuz I need to leave!!!

A P

headbanging time. Awesome music , good food too. Liquor is pretty cheap too

Kevin Jonson

Go up to the rooftop deck , the gorgeous view is worth wading through all the jersey shore wannabes.

Roman Haug

Great stuff but food is not as good.

shannon

This place could have intrigued me as a customer by bending the rules and letting me use their bathroom , but instead the host treated me like a bum, and thus I won't be coming back. Ever

adriana castro

Great hamburger

Shari Song

rooftop deck for a drink is fabulous on a sunny day.

AAF Seattle

Site of AAF Seattle's Expressing Creativity event .

Nicholas Cristo

Make sure you head up to the second floor bar for some good drinks and a killer view of Pike.

David Makogon

Get the Kilt Lifter scotch malt brew. 'Nuff said.

Dirty Bird

Completely dated, but they seem to try really hard.

Cam Bruce

The only IPA on tap is from Hawaii.. Hmm..

Delila Burmeister

cool place to go

A N

The calorie list is definitely going to make you cry...

Among the cool memorabilia here is Jimi Hendrix 's manpurse. You can find a statue of him on Capitol Hill . Read more

Justin Spicer

Bring cash. Lots of it. Prepare to leave most of it behind.
