Great atmosphere and staff. Highlight was the in-house apple cobbler. I'll come back just for that! Burger was decent. Staff was quick to address any issues and make it right. Food overall is decent but nothing special except for that dessert. Liked the layout with the exhibits.

Staff were super great. Bucharest Burger had a weird feeling to it but I think I can attribute that to the choice to have jelly inside. Given the fact this location was on the Las Vegas Strip, one might assume the memorabilia is a cut above the rest. Not really, not like how it used to be. Eat here for familiar food that you can find in a major city near you. I want to reiterate our server and the people in the shop where super nice and hard working.

Patrick and Rebecca were amazing. Honestly the best service I have ever had. Customer service A+++ thanks to them. Food (chicken fajitas) were super good, great portions, and no regrets. This was almost like personalized service and in Vegas, that’s a rarity!

I know I normally do very in-depth reviews, not this time.. Service, not good... Pictures vs reality, does not match.... Food quality, not impressed..... Before anyone thinks perhaps I set the bar to high or I am being harsh, or unfair, the chicken strips were hard, the fajitas were ...... Anyway..... It's the Hard Rock Cafe in Las Vegas, of course everybody should visit at once

My first time in Hard Rock Cafe ever. The food was really tasty. Big portions. Our server was really sweet and nice. 100% recomend this place. We shared a Cobe salad and BBQ burger. After that we had their brownies and Oh boy that portion was enormous.

It is ok. Half the restaurant is empty but they told us it is a 15 mins wait. Nice patio seating to look out at the strip. The bar area doesn't play anything on TV besides music video. Can't watch any games or highlights here. Menu is just like Applebee's or Chili's. Half the menu is drinks and the other half is burgers. But prices are $10 more than Applebee's. It is on the strip so I understand. Is it good. It is ok. I rather eat at the casino than here.

Absolutely amazing service, food and ambience every time we visit. Melissa and Rachel went out of their way to make us feel welcome, for the second time in a week. You have to try the bottomless mimosas AMAZING - everyone is so friendly and generous, by far the best Hard Rock we have visited. Manager Patrick bravo for running an amazing team.

Our server Drew was awesome!! Amazing service and great recommendations, thank you so much!!

We walked in to the cafe and immediately got handed a guitar and drum sticks to take a picture. What a start! When we sat down, our server Dawn was amazing. Friendly, personable, and got our food in a timely manner. The food was great by the way. I ordered a breakfast burrito and it was freaking delightful. There was live music of a woman just ripping it on her guitar and singing that added to the ambiance, while we were vibing and eating. It was honestly just a great experience

salt all over the table when sitting. otherwise.. kind server, lauren. decent food awesome live music.

It is my pleasure to share my thoughts regarding Raiding the Rock Vault at Hard Rock Cafe.  WOW!!!! We had such a fabulous time singing and dancing to the music. I DEFINITELY HIGHLY recommend attending this classic rock show that had music from the 60s, 70s and 80s.  We attended on our first night in Vegas (Tuesday show) and it was Ah-mazing (amazing).  Hard Rock Cafe is located on Las Vegas Boulevard (The Strip) in the Showcase Mall, near MGM Grand, Denny's and across the street from Arena Park MGM and T Mobile Arena. First of all, front row VIP couch seating for the 2 hour show.  In addition, attendees have the opportunity to Meet & Greet the performers before or after the show. Unfortunately, we did not get food or drinks therefore I can't rate that. Using my own rating scale of 5 (5 is the highest rating) here's what I thought of this phenomenal show: * Impeccable music/singers/entertainers (5 out of 5) *Sound / Stage (5 out of 5) *Setting/Ambiance (5 out of 5) *Fun/Lively (5 out of 5) *The ticket value I paid was 5 out of 5 (VIP seating) **Do not pass on this show.  Go experience Raiding the Rock Vault for yourself. Enjoy....

Food was delicious, service was okay I think they where a lithe shirt Hansen but our server was very friendly even tho she was very busy The ambiance was pleasant.

I often try to avoid strip locations as much as possible, but I had a gift card and an appetite so I paid for parking and headed to Hard Rock Cafe! See, I've been here before for events, and the staff here is very friendly; this is my first time dining at the restaurant portion, and I was pleasantly surprised! my waiter I think her name was Roxanne made our experience five stars. Though the food was what I expected, her energy and kindness made my families experience so worth it. Upon arrival, there is three levels to this location. The restaurant is on the second floor there's music playing, and there are screens at the booths. We found ourselves enjoying the ambience, but probably would not visit again to eat. Food was great! But definitely out of the way.

Amazing! Love this place! Come every time when in. Vegas. Food is delicious, service the best! They are so fast and friendly! They check on you all the time! Ambiance is also amazing, they have live music sometimes. Just good vibes all over

Recommend to have a reservation anytime on a holiday weekend. My husband and I split the Diablo burger and fries. Burger was really good but the fries were ok and a very small portion. The Hard Rock will always be an iconic place to go.

Great place to dine-in! There was good music, good food, and great service. There is nothing to complain about.

Such an amazing time at the Hard Rock Cafe. It's my 1st time in Vegas and we have eaten here almost every day now. Great food, great prices, and the staff made a difference! Our server Drew accommodated our entire group for breakfast with ease and friendliness. Make sure you stop by when you're in Vegas...

No wait time in Sunday afternoon, it's not crowded.. I can say that I am entirely sick of lack of customer service being provided in Las Vegas. We were greeted and asked if we wanted to take a family picture, which we declined. We were seated right away.. The atmosphere is huge! Bright and just enough to keep you perky. They had tvs in the booth areas playing alternative music videos, which was a pretty neat touch. Getting drinks took about 15mins, ordering took a bit longer. I asked the server if he happen to be overwhelmed and expressed that we were feeling a little neglected. No refills on drinks until we were ready to leave. He did try to make up for it by giving use a few desserts on the house, including a few souvenir mugs. He also let us know there was an event going on to check out upstairs. It was a high school band playing which was pretty cool. The food was just fine. I ordered one of the special chicken burgers they were advertising, it came with two Patties. One was undercooked, I sent it back. I try not to be so harsh but paying an arm and a leg for food that isn't top notch hurts the soul if you know what I mean. If your looking for a quick drop in for lunch, I would say take advantage of the experience. Other than that, skip it and keep moving and grooving.

This place will definitely make you feel at home. My friend and I booked a reservation during Memorial Day weekend and even despite the increased amount of foot traffic due to the long weekend, the staff here made our experience here at Hard Rock a fun and memorable one. Our first time dining in, we had Tracy as our server and she was a sweetheart. She went out of her way to make customers like us feel welcome and started friendly conversations with customers too. That definitely gave it that cozy atmosphere. Ray was also great as he was very attentive and went out of his way to ensure we were having a good time. Now in terms of food quality, it was sooo good. I'm super picky about smokehouse BBQ burgers mainly because I only like how certain places make the BBQ sauce, but everything from the sauce, patties, applewood bacon, it literally melts in your mouth. Special shoutout to Jason, Jeremy, along with their other staff, for going out of their way to make our experience here wonderful. I would definitely recommend checking this place out, especially since it's right at the heart of the Strip! This will now be one of our go to spots when we're in town.

We came in for breakfast this morning and had a great experience. Melissa was amazing, attentive and also made great drinks! Having live music was an added bonus. We'll be back on our next trip for sure!

I was very impressed with how the food tasted. We ordered the Twisted Mac, Chicken, and Cheese and Spicy Diablo Burger. I love how they put red bell peppers in the Mac and cheese, it added a little zing to it. Service and ambiance were great.

Great ambiance! Super nice staff. Very personable. Food came out fast and tasted great. Loved the history in there with all the memorabilias!

Good lunch this afternoon. Food was good. I went with the bbq bacon cheeseburger with fries. The burger had a nice little char flavor to it and had quality bacon. The onion strings were a good touch. The French fries were good and crunchy. I was disappointed in the chocolate shake, I ordered. It was way too thin. Service was attentive and friendly. The restaurant is nicely laid out on the second level of the establishment, with the retail shop on the ground floor.

Cameron sat us and Dakota was our server. Top notch, pleasant experience. Delivery was quick, food was delicious, atmosphere was top notch! Food: 5/5 | Service: 5/5 | Atmosphere: 5/5

Kyle and Daniel were both awesome, great food, service and atmosphere. This was my second time here and I will be back every time I come to Vegas.

I was there for breakfast on 9/1/24. I was pleasantly surprised by the quality and deliciousness of the food and the atmosphere with the young guitar player/singer. (Not too loud for the morning). Especially pleasing and delightful was my server, Melissa. I sat at the bar and she was working the bar in a very professional and friendly manner

Our server Dawn was amazing she's always checking up on us and made us feel super welcome drinks and food were okay but what made it special was dawns presence will only be back for her service !!!!!!

Food 7/10 The serving size was pretty big but the presentable was 3/10 Service 7/10 We were given dull knives to cut our steak and it took a while to get the attention of a server to get new knives. Ambiance 7/10 The place is dark and moody and giving that rock star vibe but under the table was a lot of mosquitos and we were all getting bit while waiting for our server so we had to request to move.

The Strip! Arrived at 6pm for our dinner reservation. I'll say, parking garage is not that great. All the elevators were down, had to walk 4 floors down. The garage is so dirty and gross. Stairwell was disgusting. Dining: we all ordered at 615pm but didn't get served for 45mins. It was not that busy on a Sunday night. Not waitress fault I'm sure. She was super attentive with drinks until food arrived. We all enjoyed our entrees. I even bought a guitar plate after...I loved how cute it was. Now trying to leave...elevators still down, had to climb 4 floors. And the exit parking area was very slow and inconvenient for many leaving the garage. Some got stuck in line for a bit. Suggestion; take an Uber! Prices ok, not over priced. Food really good. Ambience really cool. I'll think strategy when I go in future.

Had a great time. Service and food were good. People were friendly. Ambiance was fun. Gift shop had lots of great shirts.

Our server Drew was absolutely fantastic. The best service we've had in Vegas! All thanks to Drew. Highly recommend.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at the Hard Rock Cafe in Las Vegas and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience. The atmosphere was fantastic, with rock memorabilia adorning the walls and live music creating a vibrant energy in the restaurant. Our server, Ebony, was absolutely phenomenal - she was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu, making our dining experience truly enjoyable. The food was delicious, with generous portion sizes and a great selection of classic American dishes. Overall, I would highly recommend visiting the Hard Rock Cafe in Las Vegas for a memorable dining experience. It definitely deserves a 5-star rating for its outstanding atmosphere, exceptional service, and delicious food.

Sydney she Was a very good Host thank you Renate Maria Christian Lg. From Austria Tirol

Decided to eat here and see how it was. Always heard about it in the past so was curious. I got a strawberry basil lemonade that was pretty delicious. I could've had like 4 refills lol I ordered the Buffalo wings and fries. The fries were perfectly seasoned and fresh, I loved them. The Buffalo wings weren't bad. Flavor wise the Buffalo sauce had good flavor, not very spicy at all. Pretty mild. It tasted good dipped in both blue cheese and ranch. I was pleased. The wings sadly had a lot of fat on them though and the skin was not as crispy as I would've liked. That was the only downside to the wings. The restaurant was really nice though and I liked the decor. I would eat here again when in Vegas. Prices are a bit higher than I think it's worth but they aren't outrageous.. my friend got a Buffalo chicken sandwich and he really liked it. He said it was pretty good and juicy.

Amazing service, excellent atmosphere, and very friendly staff. Our food came out great, super fast too. I had the diablo burger, I thought it was pretty good it had good flavor combination but I was disappointed in the very low spice level. Drew was our server and he was marvelous, nothing but the highest complements towards him. He made our experience all the better and had great information about other places to try and things for us to do in town.

Drew was awesome. The best sever worldwide. Amazing person. Very considerate. Takes everyone into consideration. Would go anywhere he's at. Great tenders and cocktails.

Came in with my boyfriend during an early evening weeknight and were seated immediately. The restaurant was near empty which definitely worked in our favor as our server was quick to get in our drink and food orders. Our server was very friendly and engaging in conversation. Everything was brought out within a timely manner. My BF got the legendary burger and I got the steak salad. Both tasted great and were solid choices. I'm not too sure about the best place to park for this location however we walked from MGM and it was a bit of a walk but in nice weather it's not bad at all. This restaurant is definitely a great food spot for decent portions and a typical American type meal.

Bottomless service was phenomenal! And got to-go cups capped with straws!!! Brunch menu was awesome too!

This morning for breakfast I was greeted by a very upbeat & mature hostess. She was smiling & made my day much more pleasant. I asked her for her name so I could leave a great review for her. Marissa was kind of enough to tell me. It was nice to finally have an upbeat & friendly person to start my day off. Thank you Marissa & Hard Rock Las Vegas for hiring her. I will return soon. Toni

I've been here three times. Decent prices, and food. Friendly, helpful staff. Great Art. Spacious, pleasant, comfortable, and well lit. Good variety of diner food, drinks, Bar, and music.

Worst experience ever! The food was gross. $20.00 for a sad little cheeseburger and some fries. The burger was ordered medium, it came out still mooing. The service was atrocious. The place was pretty dead yet I only saw my server once when they took the order and once when they dropped off the bill. They didnt even deliver the food to the table and then suggested an 18% tip. You are lucky you got one at all. I will never recommend this place to anyone.

My friend & I were waited on by an Amazing Waitress- SIDNEY ask for her!! She was sooo sweet & came around & and checked on us numerous times.She made our meal alot nicer!

Joe and Melissa were very attentive, checking in with me regularly. Great live music, good breakfast - will return.

The service was quick and food was good, but the hostess and a few staff members were rude! We've been to many other Hard Rock Cafe's and there's always a place where we take a selfie after lunch/dinner as a memory of the location. There was nowhere to do this showing "Vegas" except 1 place. A staff member stood in front of that backdrop and wouldn't let anyone take a picture unless it was a shot they'd take and would charge for it. Other locations don't do this. Never going to this location again!!

Daniel and Becca were amazing, helpful and fun! Food was delicious and service was so fast. Highly recommended!​

In this case what stays in Vegas can also be found outside of Vegas. The Hard Rock Cafe creates some very good burgers and the memorabilia that adorns the restaurant is worth a look. Service was decent although my fries could have been warmer. For the Strip the $20 hamburger seemed like a deal, kinda crazy.

Daniel and Kyle were amazing! Best servers at Hard Rock! Loved the conversations and insights!

Hostess was amazing quick friendly service. We had the chicken& waffles with Bottomless mimosas. It was a great way to start my morning.

Knocked another location off on my cafe tours. Food was great service was spot on. Good selection of memorabilia.

Hubby and I arrived in town for a Depeche Mode show and were excited to find that a great DM cover band, Strangelove, was playing the night before at the Hard Rock Cafe. We found that online ticket sales had stopped, but we called to find that we could buy tickets in the retail area on the first floor, which was great because we avoided all the online fees. Since we arrived early, we went to the second level for a bit to eat and a couple drinks. The menu was basic, regular bar food. I was able to get a chicken bowl, which was pretty good. I had a spin-off on a cosmopolitan, which was ok, but nothing special. My husband had a pretty bad whiskey sour, which he sent back because it wasn't as described on the menu. Our server took it back and brought one that looked more like the way it had been described, but unfortunately it still was barely drinkable. I thought our server was nice and very attentive. He was in training and I thought he was doing a great job. Of course, being at the Hard Rock Cafe, you are surrounded by a ton of music memorabilia. Our server did a great job getting us in and out quickly so that we would be ready for the show. We went upstairs for the show, and I actually loved the venue! Party, because it wasn't sold out, it felt very spacious, despite the fact that it is a small venue. There was plenty of space to hang out at the bar or hit the floor in front of the DJ and the band. I liked the fact that there was a great view of the stage from the bar. Drinks were way better and cheaper than the restaurant. I really loved that, even though it was a bit chilly, the terrace over the Strip was open. First, it allowed the concert venue to remain smoke-free, as the smokers went outside. Also, for us, it gave us a chance to check out the Strip view, and get some fresh air periodically. I give the restaurant 3 stars, and the concert venue 5 stars, so I settled on 4 stars. I would definitely check out a show there again.

Visited Vegas in February this year and enjoyed our time at the H.R Cafe and was greeted and served by very friendly staff. Did make reservations but did not need to we found out, as we had in Summertime. Vae was our server and she was so nice, genuine and made our meal more enjoyable and Fun. Clean, good music & video's on the screens and good vibes all around.

We had breakfast and excellent food and service. There was live entertainment. Many people were on the patio above the strip.

So far I have been 17 Hard Rock Cafe & The Las Vegas Hard Rock Cafe Is one of the 17 locations that I have been to... Everytime when visiting Vegas I do try to make a stop to this place that I like most... I have ate here for lunch... When this Vegas Hard Rock Cafe wasn't at this area... I have lots of stuff from the Vegas Hard Rock Cafe like Pins, & A long-sleeved shirt... This is one of favorite place to go to when I am on vacation in Viva Las Vegas!!!

If I could give a ten me and my husband we would. Ray was so humble, attentive, professional. We are in Vegas due to my husbands 40th birthday. This experience made up for the horrible time we had at rainforest cafe yesterday. The food may be the best we ever tasted. The burger juicy delicious flavorful. The chicken sandwich same. Wow
