One of the best HRC I've ever been to, and I've been to a lot. They're always busy as hell, so don't be put out if the service is a bit slow. Friendly staff .

Jay Blessed

I had the BBQ Chicken plate - very tasty. The LI ice teas are worth the price! ???? Tried this (dessert ) warm alcoholic beverage and didn't like it. Other than that - cool fam experience.

Yasaman Mahdian

I don’t like the food here that much. Everything is calorie bomb! But the interior and unique collector pieces and lively vibe makes it worth a visit!

Mark B

Great service and food. Next door to Ford's Theater so good stop while waiting for the tour . Also blocks from Smithsonian American Art Museum . Tex BBQ Pork sandwich tasty.

First time ever at a HRC. Our waiter found out & brought the DJ (goes by the name of "J") who took us on a very detailed tour ! Came back to the table and our food showed up hot & ready! Awesome.

Felicia Thomas

The watermelon Cooler was refreshing. The was delious and the service was great. My family and I didn't have to wait that long for a table.

Hamit Şek

I ate one of the best hamburgers in there. It is not for human, very big beef and delicious :)) absolutely have to try crème brûlée and california burger :)

Niels Swimberghe

Great atmosphere, very friendly people, nice food, look out for a sing for burger event and get a free burger if you sing!

emiliano calos

Nice staff and good food. If you ask, they will provide you with guitars so you can have a picture posing like a rockstar.

Jaim Edelshein

Nice place for a few drinks! Pretty much the same as in any hard rock around the world but smaller

RJ Pena

Always ask what the local legendary is in every city . Unique flavor in each city !

Aaron Grebner

The service was pretty good and the mojito I ordered was awesome.

Oliver Oberthür

We were there 10.30 pm and all the lights were switched on for cleaning . Worst Hard Rock Cafe we've been in Europe and USA.

Paulien Zomer

The classic club sandwich is always good @HRC.

Jennifer Nohai-Seaman

Local legendary with sautéed apples and onions with provolone and a side of maple honey . Amazing!

Hard Rocker

Chris Phan

Lively environment with great burgers ! Everyone went home happy

Daniel Santiago

The food is the same at almost all of them, but it's still good.

Red Sea Pedestrian

Finally made it to a Hard Rock just see what the big deal was. The place is a bad joke. No idea what anyone sees in these. If loud and overpriced is your idea of fun, you'll love it.

Maggie MacG

Consistent burgers and throw back videos.

Nad Cee

Chicken tenders , Chicken fajitas and a brownie ! To share please!

Alex Hidding

The nacho dish is big and tasty

Steven Limitone

Another Pilsner for the collection. Always a great atmosphere. Try the Mac n Cheese

Diane Thompson

Ribs , mac & cheese , The Big Cheeseburger !

RJ Pena

Always sit with the redhead with the beehive at the bar . Best bartender in the entire place

Gilles Boeykens

The Legendary burger rocks you to the limit. Great food!

Serhii Lutsko

There is a tradition where we buy a guitar from this franchise in every city but this one didn't have it :(

Jenny Thomas

They have a sign at front door that's says if you ck in on Facebook, you'll receive a discount . The server says it's not true. They do not offer any discounts . Sounds like false advertising!

Scott Pollacek

Order the fish and chips . It's one of the best I have had.

triplib.

A typical American kitchen and good food. Read more

Khaleelah Gilcreast

Every time I go I have a great server who is extremely entertaining. Don't know if they mean to be but it makes me happy either way.

Gwen Evans-Winston

Sever was slow and inattentive! Food was good but pricey for burger , fries , and beer !

H Rey

Tupelo Chicken Tenders goes well with any drink

Julie Bathie

Very average hard rock one of the worse that we have visited world wide ! Initial welcome non existent , waiter took 10 minutes to even come near our table ! Then our starter came with my main course

Paul Mackenzie Ross

The "Local Legendary" here comes with pistachios , pineapple , bacon and wasabi mayo for the fries - give it a go.

Jennifer Patten

Awesome environment/mood/staff ... Shy away from nachos they don't have much to them.

Jose Rodriguez

Good place to drink and have a great food

G L

Well ...it's not the next best thing and some waitress are rude with the costumer . If you 're having plans to eat sth there, that's ok.

Josh Maxwell

This place is damn near empty and the music is jamming like I am at a sold out concert , sitting on the front row. 10pm

Erik Gray

The burger was good.

Michalis Strouthos

Good food, great margaritas , always up to the HRC standards!

Trever Loynd

The legendary burger is not all it's cracked up to be, very bland and the bun seemed stale. Very good service though.

Kenny

Definitely get the local legendary burger , but do NOT use ketchup or mustard on it!

Tim Blau

great food !!!! always love the memorobilla

Mary Stephens

Disaster in the rock shop. Guy messed up the register and while my cab is running he was more interested in dancing than fixing it.

Shannon A

Nacho app is FABULOUS! Will get as my entree next time!

Olly Willey

Here's a good tip. Go anywhere else!

Amber

Super busy and didn't get my food right! Way under cooked my "well done" burger . It could have moo'd, check your food before starting to eat it or the waitress leaves or you won't get anything else
