    Valentine's day - had reservation. Greated by friendly hosts and wife given a rose. Seated quickly by the bar. Had a lady singing and playing guitar- very enjoyable. Server Ashley very friendly- made several recommendations. Had the BBQ combo - wife had Smash burger. Food was very good!

    Ein großen Teil der Speisekarte konnte nicht bestellt werden, darunter die Klassiker wie Rips oder Steaks, da alles „ausverkauft“ war (Abendessen 1900 Uhr). Das Lokal ist sehr lieblos ausgestattet und die Temperatur im Lokal war eiskalt!

    AMarkus, ich entschuldige mich für die jüngste Erfahrung. Wie Sie wissen, sind wir sehr stolz darauf, jedem Gast, der durch unsere Türen kommt, ein großartiges kulinarisches Erlebnis zu bieten. Dieses Versprechen haben wir bei diesem Besuch eindeutig nicht eingehalten. Es gibt einfach keine Entschuldigung für all die Dinge, die an diesem Tag schief gelaufen sind. Ich schätze Ihr Feedback und nehme es sehr ernst. Bitte senden Sie mir direkt eine E-Mail an clarence.choffel@hardrockdotcom. Nochmals vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback und ich freue mich darauf, von Ihnen zu hören.

    Horrible! They were late with reservations which can be understandable, but once they got us in 45 minutes later the server never came. So many walked passed us and no one checked in with us. Finally I went to speak with someone and they sent the server. She took the order and since we wanted drinks I went to the bar. The bartender just pointed at the watch and looked at me like I was crazy and said we are closed already. So can’t tell you about the food because we walked out. What was the point of eating without drinks. And also who knows how long it would be for the food to come out since we were also waiting for that for a good while. Anyways 2 1/2 hours wasted and everything else was closed so ended the night with street hotdogs from outside.

    When arrive on time they did not have the table ready. A delay of 45 minutes waiting standing. Then the pre booked foot was not available because they runout of those options. About two hours delay to star dining. At the end, the prepaid food was charged twice by mistake and took a while for them to correct their mistake. Really a bad experience all together.

    Rodolfo, I apologize for the recent experience. As you know, we take great pride in providing a great dining experience to every guest who walks through our doors. We clearly did not deliver on that promise during this visit. There is simply no excuse for all the things that went wrong that day. I value your feedback and take it very seriously.

    We booked a table but arrived early (by about 15 minutes). We did make the host aware of this and said the table is not ready but go to the bar and he will let us know when it’s ready. We waited at the bar for 45 mins for a table even though half the restaurant was empty). We eventually asked one of the servers if we could have a table because we had a reservation and had been waiting for 30 mins and they sat us down. The food was nothing more than ok but was practically thrown at us when it arrived. Would not go back.
