Hard Rock Cafe

Hard Rock is a very nice place to eat lunch. Food was very delicious. Especially the BBQ Pork Sandwich. The drinks are really expensive though. Like the strawberry lemonade(non-alcoholic). It’s literally just 90% full of ice with some strawberry lemonade for a total of $9. Our food was really quick to get out. The bad thing was that the bathroom stall did not lock. 😬

If I’m in a town with a Hard Rock Cafe, I always go. I really enjoyed my salad and my family enjoyed their meal. Our server Vida, was fantastic! The only downside was the amount of memorabilia. I did enjoy the atmosphere. It wasn’t loud like the other restaurants on Broadway.

Where to start. Most of the food was not good. Only the ribs were good & they were REALLY GOOD. The steak had no flavor at all. The fries were soggy. The margarita was maybe the worst I've ever had & it was top shelf (Patron). We need reservations to eat there. The prices were expensive. So given those 2 things, you'd think the food would be up scale & the bathrooms clean. But no. Also, compared to other Hard Rocks I've been to, the decor & memorabilia in the Nashville one severely lacked. I will not be visiting this Hard Rock location again.

We make a point of visiting Hard Rock Cafes whenever we travel close enough, so we've been to several of them now. This was our first visit to the Nashville location. This was pretty good. The live entertainment they had tonight wasn't great, but he wasn't terrible either. That's always hit or miss, so I wouldn't consider that much of an impact to my overall rating. We had six in our party, and for the most part everyone found something they liked. I ordered the Impossible Burger, modified slightly to be dairy-free. I thought it was good but not great. My wife got the Impossible Burger the way it normally comes. She thought they put a little too much cheese on it. Both came out cold and a little dry and bland. Our 9-year-old daughter ordered the Mac and cheese. She thought it was really good. I didn't get much of a pulse on the rest of our party, but they seemed to enjoy what they got for the most part. So those were the negatives, and the rest were positives. I typically order sparkling water with limes at most places, and our server was excellent with this, in that she got me six lime wedges right from the get go, a perfect amount for two drinks. The atmosphere was a little cozier than some of the other ones we've been to, and the collection of musical artifacts is just as fun as the other locations to look through. They have this tiny little gift shop in the restaurant, which I thought was a disappointment until I realized that the actual gift shop is in a small building across the parking lot, and it had a nice assortment of merchandise. Parking I'm on the fence about. I hate paying to park in the lot of the place I'm already patronizing, but I do like the convenience of valet parking. For us it was $15. I'd consider this a wash.

One of the best HRC experiences we have had. Addison is an absolute legend, and an asset to the team. He looked after us, nothing was a problem at all. Food and beverage recommendations were on point, and he even showed us a part of the cafe we would have otherwise missed. Food arrived quick, hot and portions were generous. Great service all round. We will be back as soon as we can!

Maura was such an amazing waitress! So personal and professional but still had a great time with us! We will definitely be coming back here next time and requesting her service! Thank you for the great start to the night, Maura!

Love the atmosphere here. The food is good but not outstanding. The service was great. Love hearing live music here.

First time at Hard Rock Cafe. Staff, service, and food were great. Loved the memorabilia!

Clarence was awesome and attentive. The food was good. Atmosphere was what you'd expect being in Nashville.

I had a horrible experience with a manager at this location and contacted corporate regarding it. Not only did they solve the issue but it was done in a swift manner. I can truly say that HardRock Corporate cares about their customers and their brand. It took a while for someone to take our orders but the bartender came to provide her service. She was really sweet and attentive even though she had a bar full of people. My food was good and everyone in my party enjoyed their meals. They had a live performer which was nice. Outside of the experience I had with the manager, everything else was fine. HardRock Cafe Corporate you rock!

Nice view from the rooftop, friendly staff, slow service, and lame drinks. Definitely not a place I need to revisit.

Gave us a parking ticket while we were inside for 15 minutes. We were parked at a 90 minute free parking for Hard Rock Cafe. We brought the ticket inside and asked about it and they said they didn't know anything about it or how the parking works. The drinks weren't good at all, tasted watered down! And pretty expensive at that! Paid $14 for a margarita when it was $10 mega marg day, but we didn't know until after we ordered when a different table told us about it! The server was horrible, we asked for one of the take home glasses and she completely ignored me. I wouldn't recommend this place to my worst enemy!

this place was a life saver for a bite at the end of the night. our server was a treasure and the caprese pizza pictured was the perfect munchie. easy to get an uber ride from as well since it's at the far end of Broadway by the river.

I have been a fan since I was a kid, and still am. I have too much memorabilia. Quality/Quantity - Interesting, two buildings. A small gift shop in the main building and an employee told us about a huge gift shop in the other building. Well it was only slightly bigger. See pictures. Party hour, happy hour available; but it was way too early for me to start drinking. Current promotions on t-shirts, see pictures. Atmosphere - One of the smaller HRCs. Two buildings, two gift shops. Located at the end (or beginning) of the "strip." Valet parking, see picture for prices. Service - Everyone was friendly, even with the misleading gift shop size information. Price - N/A, did not find anything I wanted. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success since 1971 with your 165+ restaurants, 24+ hotels, and 11 casinos. Congrats on your success at this location since 1992. I see that you are franchising now...? Or has that always been the case?

Awesome service, Clarence made sure we got what we needed!! Good and drinks were GREAT!!! And loved the music.

I recently moved from California to Tennessee and spent last Sunday doing the tourist trap crawl on Broadway. I haven't been to a Hard Rock location since Vegas and remembered their drinks are pretty good so I made my way to this bar. The layout of the bar is interesting. There's two separate buildings. One is all gift shop and the other is the bar. The bar is two-stories. Top floor has a long bar with a patio. Ground floor has a smaller bar and the dining room. I pulled up to the bar and bellied up in front of Bubba and Paige. Both were fantastic. Bubba was a riot behind the bar and whipped up a delicious Bahama Mama for me and when I asked for a michelada (one of the many things I miss from California), he was able to concoct something pretty close to the real deal. Although there weren't many of us at the bar, they kept us entertained and were very personable. I also got to check out a drag show for a bit upstairs. No cover charge, to my surprise. Lots of great talent up there and honestly, a lot more fun than I had anticipated. I didn't get to try any of the food but the burgers I saw on the menu looked great. I'll have to come back and try them out. If you go, make sure you check the bar to see if Bubba and Paige are working.

I always enjoy visiting Hard Rock. We stopped by for a happy hour drink. Had the Margarita, it was a little sweet for my taste. Great ambiance, beautiful over looking outside down broadway.

The food, service and ambiance is always great. We love checking out all the Hard Rock Cafe's on our journey's and they never disappoint.

Tim was a fun server and did a great job. Matija was a lot of fun taking the postcard/pictures.

Great place. The staff were super friendly and we got seated pretty quick. The fries were delicious and not like fast food type. The burger was decent however it clocked in at 1400 calories which if you are trying to be healthy not the best place for you. The inside was nice and vibrant with live music playing. It's at the end of broadway and if you don't want to be overstimulated by broadway, hard rock is a great place to have a nice calm dinner with a similar experience. I went here for my birthday and it was nice they gave a complimentary sundae. It was a little pricy but hard rock somewhat delivered on the value.

Our waiter was so friendly and gave my nephew a Messi ball and he's a total fan. The brownie sundae is huge!! So big. Like prepare to share!

While visiting Nashville for a wrestling tournament the family and I stopped in for dinner here. This is only the second Hard Rock Cafe I have ever visited. The first was in St. Louis and it has since shut down. If you want a family friendly place to go enjoy dinner while on Broadway, then this is the spot. We went in around 10pm and we were seated immediately. The waitress was very good and took great care of us! She offered several suggestions and the ones we chose were spot on. My son got the wings with a side of fries. They had a nice kick to them, but not too hot. My wife got the Spicy Diablo Burger and fries, and I got the Classic Nachos and added grilled chicken. We as a family ended up sharing all the meals with each other because it was that good! You can also go around and look at all of the cool memorabilia that's hanging throughout the establishment. Some petty neat items to see. We'll definitely be back here!

We've ate at several Hard Rock Cafe's, so we didn't have high hopes for the food. We just went for the kids to experience the atmosphere! However, we were pleasantly surprised! The food was outstanding! We had several appetizers for our meals, including the shrimp, nachos, & sliders that were amazing! The kids had the Messi burgers & Messi Chicken sandwich, which included a Hard Rock mini gold soccer ball, that they loved! The staff went above & beyond! They were attentive & very helpful!

Solid experience on a Friday night. Food was good, especially the chicken sandwich, live music was good, the decor or ambiance of the dining room was a little off though. Service was friendly and good. They said kitchen was backed up but food was quick for us. We'd come back

I really hate to leave negative reviews but this warrants one in my opinion. I ordered chicken & steak fajitas and was looking forward to hearing that amazing sizzling sound. My waitress (Meghan) brought the dish to our table and walked away. The cast iron was warm, not even hot (I could touch it with my fingers), and the vegetables were still raw. The chicken and steak were barely warm obviously pre-cooked. I asked my waitress to kindly bring the veggies back to be cooked on the cast iron. She returned a few minutes later with the veggies on a plate, possibly microwaved but definitely not grilled... really ruined the experience... I've eaten at many Hard Rock restaurants around the world and this was my first bad experience.

Bubba is the best ! He made our dinner so much fun ! He went above and beyond to make sure we enjoyed he night . I can't wait to come back

Bubba the bartender is FANTASTIC!!! Great personality and makes amazing drinks! We're visiting from out of town, and I'd definitely recommend coming to the Hard Rock bar just to see him!

Great spot with fun drinks, was great talking with the legendary Bubba the bartender.

Stopped in for a quick dinner while visiting Nashville. We were greeted promptly and seated right away. Our waitress was super friendly and informative. Our food was delayed but she kept stopping by to check on us. The food portions were large and very tasty. There was live music which was very good. Typical hard rock decor. Overall a great spot.

Great service! Tim was awesome - friendly, quick, helpful, funny. We enjoyed our food and drinks as well! Fun atmosphere- great decor that's fun to walk around and check out. Would be back.

Bubba is a treasure of a bartender and his personality will stick with you for days!! Best bartender in Nashville!!

Very nice and friendly as well as accommodating. Did not mind helping when we ask for changes and made sure we were satisfied with not just our meal but overall experience.

We had a large group for a birthday dinner. Clarence handled our group with with ease and made sure we were well taken care off!

My friends and I came here on a Tuesday night and we got seated quickly. The staff were very friendly. I ordered the one night in Bangkok spicy shrimp and the onion ring tower. The one night in Bangkok spicy shrimp was crispy shrimp, tossed in a creamy, spicy sauce, topped with scallions, served on a bed of coleslaw. The onion rings were fried well. Both dishes were very good and very filling. It wasn't too busy of a night and the staff were very attentive. There are pictures and guitars of different bands and artists around the restaurant.

So unfortunately sad. My chicken sandwich apparently loved being in warm bath of gooey nonsense, because that's what I received today. My cold glass of tap water had more flavor than this sad bird and fries. Well, at least I hope it was chicken. Server Ana could care less how the experience was. She was not seen for the majority of my horrible experience here. Such a somber environment upon entering this dungeon of doom, should've been the foreshadowing warning to stay away.

Paige and Bubba were AMAZING! Been in Nashville all week- could not have asked for a better way to spend our last day

Bubba was the best! Very knowledgeable and helpful, but most of all friendly. When I come back to Nashville I'm coming back to this Hard Rock location because of our friend :)

Services was awesome Food awesome Wonderful Food great job from our servier nice gentleman

Nothing special about Hard Rock, it's overpriced and flavorless foo. Kind of like a cool Bob Evan, made for seniors that aren't aloud flavor or salt. If your in a pinch it's safe food but would recommend going elsewhere if you want to have food with flavor. But we were hungry and it wasn't crowed so it suited our needs. The waitress was good !!!

Cool. This one obviously has more country flare to it than others as to be expected. The food was good. We got the Messi Burger and Messi Chicken sandwich, the Bangkok Shrimp and the sliders, drinks were well made too. Live entertainment upstairs. There's a nice view on the 2nd floor deck. Ehhhh so our server was nice and all but he smelled really bad. Funkytown with his hygiene. It was uncomfortable because he kept handing things across the table and was killing us with his breath and BO!! My parents kept mentioning it, and so did the table behind us and across from us that he was serving. Gross as hell. Outside of that was a pleasant experience.

Stopped in for lunch, starving after a morning bus tour of the city. We were seated right away and the restaurant was only mildly busy. Our server took a while to greet us and bring our drinks. We ordered our food and it took forever to get it. Literally waited like 45 minutes for a steak salad and chicken sandwich and fries. The server knew she took a long time because as she set our food down, she said, "I'm sure you guys are starving by now." No other explanation, no apology. My chicken sandwich was good, but luke warm at best. I'm guessing it had been sitting there for a while after it was done. Despite that, the aoli on the sandwich was delicious. The fries were standard. I did not like the flavor of the steak on my boyfriend's steak salad, but he enjoyed it and thought it was good. The server tried to redeem herself by bringing us complimentary to-go sodas when she brought our check. Despite being incredibly slow, she was pleasant overall. The ambiance was nice and I liked the music, but it was a tad too loud so we had to shout to each other in order to hear. We didn't have much conversation while we waited because of how loud it was. I would eat here again as long as I'm not in any rush.

Our server, Tim, was great! Very friendly and top of everything. The food and drinks were just as ordered and delicious.

While I know HRC's are tourist traps, we were in town for a soccer tournament and my son begged to go try the Messi burger. We arrived around 5:30 and were immediately seated. Server came to take drinks then came back and said another server is taking over and left. 10 mins..no server...15 mins no server...20 mins...I ask a passing server to send us someone or let us leave and pay our parking fee!! Finally- server shows up. No apologies- nothing. Order appetizer. She tried to force us to also order meal at same time and we weren't ready. Her eye roll made it known she was not happy ( note that for tip deduction) . Comes back another 15-20 min later with nacho appetizer. Not impressed. Nothing is hot. Place meal order. Comes out in appropriate amount of time, allowing us to finish appetizer. This I appreciate!! Order was: Messi burgers, Messi chicken sandwich and meatloaf special with green beans and mashed potatoes. NOTHING WAS HOT!!!!! Luke warm at best. The boys enjoyed their Messi burger. No complaints other than not very hot. Chicken sandwich was like warm, cheese was just 2 cold slices placed on it- not even melted and chicken wasn't hot enough to melt on own. Ate half of it and was done- not very good at all. Meatloaf special was DISGUSTING!!! Absolutely horrible. Warm. Not a single item had any seasoning to it. Meatloaf and sauce was literally something out of a school cafeteria- no flavor- cardboard like and just pathetic. Green beans and mashed potatoes were equally bland, no taste and lukewarm. Waitress was inattentive- walked past in a hurry saying " how is it all"...... but didn't stop to hear an answer and just kept going. Don't worry- her tip absolutely reflected this poor service. This was by far the worst meal we had while visiting. This is the worst meal we have had at any HRC. Nashville location should be ashamed and fire their chef from Saturday night ( 1/13/24) immediately. I would give zero stars if I could. Overpriced school food is what we were served and awful service.

Tim was fantastic today. First time to a hard rock and he made us feel very welcome. 10/10

Good food and great service! Clarence was awesome! Personable and kind. I definitely would recommend having him as your server.

Steven was great order the classic Burger and get yourself a commerative glass can't go wrong! Love music really set the mood.

We came here for my wife's birthday and live near the city . The live music is always great . 15 dollar parking, 15 dollar drinks. And the food was ok. We had a few drinks at the bar that were a good size but didn't seem much alcohol was in them. You would think for the price you're paying. We got our table and got the bruschetta which was really good. Nothing was jumping out at me so I got the duo fajitas for 25 bucks. Wife had a salmon noodle salad which had a tangy soy sauce which was really tasty . Mine was ok and the fajita breads I think were stale on one side as I couldn't fold it without cracking.other than that it wasn't that bad. The servers were great and they got a thing about proofing everyone even if you're elderly.must have had an incident in the past. Didn't get a chance to check out the other two floors of music memorabilia but may next time I'm in the area. Wasn't an over the top experience but worth a stop.

Bubba is the sweetest bartender on Broadway! He was amazing and made good drinks! The service was exceptional.

Came through Nashville headed east on vacation instead of beating the streets to try out a celebrity owned eatery or bar I looked up Hard Rock on the Open Door app and discovered I could make a reservation. So after making our reservation it was easy to pull into the parking lot to have my vehicle valet instead of trying to find a spot to park. Valet cost about $15 got a great spot up front they do accept cards for payment. We were early for our reservation but there was enough seating available that we were sat right away. Our waitress was awesome offered up her favorite drinks and foods of choice. I love it when wait staff are so knowledgeable about their menus. Super Lex was her name ‼ btw Food and drinks were good. I had the twisted Mac and cheese with chicken it does have a bit of heat to it but it's not to terrible. Cocktails all three were great the best was the Very Merry Cocktail. There is a gift section in the restaurant but there's a stand alone brick and mortar Hard Rock store just outside the restaurant in the same location. Lots more to choose from and this is where you'd show your receipt to pick up clean fresh souvenir glasses if you "purchased" one at the restaurant. Also sometimes the store runs specials so definitely head over there after you eat. So glad we stopped in to catch a bite to eat before heading to our final destination.

Bubba was awesome! The drinks were soooo good!! Sitting at the bar was definitely the right decision!!

I had to pay $15 just to park in the restaurant parking so I could go inside and get a burger. There should be voucher for people dining in. It's going to need to be a 2 hour voucher though because on a night of less than 1/4 of tables filled, I waited 45 mins just to place my order.

I've been to several Hard Rock Cafes and always enjoyed the experience, but tonight was disappointing. The white girl bartender on duty had a poor attitude and seemed completely disengaged. she was on her phone rather than serving us. It felt like she didn't want to be there, which made the atmosphere uncomfortable.

Terrifying bad I watched the chef? Put my chicken breast into a microwave and then serve it to me with wilted lettuce this place which sucks.

Great food and great service. The Messi Chicken sandwich was delicious and the mushroom Swiss burger was great. The fries were perfectly seasoned and the macaroni and cheese may have been the best I have ever had. The real showstopper was the apple cobbler though! It was cinnamon-y and gooey and topped with vanilla ice cream and drizzled with caramel. Oh yum! It wasn't too busy at lunch time on a Friday and the place had live music playing too.

Yummy drinks and the service is quick especially at the bar! Bubba is the best and hilarious! Had him make me a surprise drink and it was delicious. Would recommend stopping by!

We stopped in for a midday cocktail after our double decker city bus tour. Our bartender was terrific. He was originally from Vegas. I don't recall his name. He made a great Bloody Mary and was personable with conversation. The restaurant is full of fun iconic pictures and memorabilia. It is conveniently located at the corner of Broadway near the river. Valet parking is available for tour goers and for Hard Rock Cafe patrons. They have a small gift shop inside the restaurants.

The food was delicious, and the ambiance was perfect. When we walked in the hostess was incredibly friendly. Clarence was our server and he was very attentive and provided great service. Highly recommend!
