Great food and outstanding service from really friendly staff ! We didn't book a table so had a 20 minute wait but passed the time in the shop and at the bar . Would definitely recommend for all ages!

Mai tai was weak, as were the fish tacos . The furikake fries with spicy ketchup and Oreo cheesecake (they make it fresh each day, not the frozen crap) were excellent.

Ray Outler

Hard Rock Cafe Honolulu achieved LEED Silver certification for energy use, lighting, water and material use as well as incorporating a variety of other sustainable strategies. CONGRATS HRC Honolulu!!!

Justin Martin

Bangkok shrimp were great! Burgers were perfectly cooked while the atmosphere was fun! Fish tacos were weak (try other places). All drinks were really good. I highly suggest going!

David

have been surprised to see bands playing day and night. the best hard rock cafe I have seen so far in the world.

Jeff Robertson

Loved this place! Great vibes all around. Great drinks and service!

Michelle Fernandez

Its a great place to take your friends for dinner . I have been employed by them since the opening of the new restaurant in November 2010. The food is great and plentiful. Enjoy!!!!!

Ty Ford

Waitstaff is aggressive: you WILL join their loyalty program, you WILL give them your contact info, and you certainly WILL give your server a 10 on their online survey about your experience. Or else.

Anita

A really cool ceiling with guitars. Just be careful while looking. Don't miss a step. ????

Troy Smith

Ask for one of Eric's tables if you have young kids, my son loved chatting with him and he made the stop at Hard Rock well worth it!

Aleksander Fabijan

Great service, nice location, mind the happy hour (after 9pm) with 4$ beer and 5$ cocktails ! Live music !

Orlando Moralez

Service was quick despite there being a full house. Nick was awesome and took very good care of us. Food was also fantastic. Will definitely be back during our stay.

Sofiene Belkhiria

One of the most authentic hard rock cafes I ve ever been to. Great atmosphere and location.

Do a little research on where to eat properly if you took the effort to go to Hawaii. Went with a group that I almost abandoned upon hearing where the the reservation was... I should have.

Yvonne Rosales

Not a fan of the music that's playing. Ask your server if you can request a song. They have these cool iPads where they can select songs. Not every song, but lots ;)

Pedro Dos Reis

Good music , nice staff , good prices for Happy Hour and delicious food!! A must-go!!

Tara Thelen

Delicious hot wings and ribs . I liked the Southern Rock drink. My buzz was on.

Stephanie Vincent

Get Mary Jane as your server! She was so awesome! She's a local & really knows how to help you figure out what to order.

Rob Johnson

Beautifully designed Hard Rock

Stacey Wellbourn

Bit $$$ food serving is very generous we shared 2 sides and were still unable to finish it.

Dani Garza

Open concept to the elements so it can get cold at night if ur on the patio .... Very cool Hard Rock guitar ceiling.

Gustavo Domingues

It was awesome! Nice place to relax and drink a cold draft !

Katie Ryan

12 people at the bar , with a bar back and a service well bartender and the bartender still found things to do besides serve us. And yes, I agree, I think this draft Bud Light is watered down.

Kelliann I.

The Mac&cheese was pretty yummy and the bartender Alii was up there on my list of best bartenders

Alan Harris

Get the swordfish tacos , some of the best tacos out there. Ask if Abby is working she is the best

Ilke

Ask about their happy hour before 7pm and after 9pm. $5 most coctails !

Electric Bamboo

I always worry when the first thing I see in a restaurant is a retail store, and not the food that's being served. Still, their cocktails are worth getting.

Joe Serico

One of the better HRC's. Overhead array of guitars is awesome. Great service.

Matthew MacLennan

Atmosphere was fantastic! Live band killed it.
