My waitress Tracy was a delight. I went at a slow time and so we could talk more. She was asking me about my trip and where I was from. We talked for a while. I could have talked to her all day. She was very pleasant and funny. I enjoyed the food, but the service was phenomenal. My food was also very fresh. If you want a recommendation, get the Messi chicken sandwich! 🙂

Another stop on our honeymoon— having never been to a Hard Rock Cafe before, my husband put this on our itinerary for our honeymoon. The atmosphere was amazing. All the authentic memorabilia displayed…was nice. We ordered the Messi burger and chicken sandwich. My chicken was kind of dry— so I was a bit disappointed. Our server was nice and efficient.

The most appalling restaurant. Tried to go for dinner, even though we know the food would not be stellar, but due to it being later in the evening and everywhere else closes early, we decided to go there just to have a quick bite. Restaurant was not crowded at all, with plenty of open tables as evidenced by the pictures. Hostess tried to seat us at a high table, but due to back issues we asked to be seated at a regular table (seeing that there were plenty of empty ones around). She said she couldn't do that as "I don't have a server there". Ok, in the sections that do "have a server", they were within 5 ft. of the table we would prefer to be at, but apparently there must be an electric fence or something that they can't cross over. Even the sections that purportedly have servers were quite empty, meaning that server could take the extra few step outside of their "zone"? I get it, they have their sections, but you're going to inconvenience a potential diner because you can't get someone to crossover and serve a table? We were told all the other servers are at a "private party". Wasn't entirely sure whether they were partying or serving a private party. In either case, it means the restaurant didn't adequately plan for their staffing for that evening. The hostess tried to ask a manager about seating us some where else, and said if we sat there, we'd have to wait about 20 minutes before we can have a server. Was quite unbelievable as there were servers working there that we can see. I don't believe that we'd have gotten a server in 20 minutes anyway if they were all at a party. While this was going on, a party of three came in to the restaurant, and one of the gentlemen was in a wheelchair, so we asked if they were going to try to sit the wheel-chair bound gentlemen at the high table? And they said no, they'll just sit at a regular table and will have to wait till a server comes to that section. Unbelievable. So someone with a disability won't get service. What century does Hard Rock Cafe think they're in? Completely shameful! We left. Cannot imagine trying to give them the business - not like they really seem like they wanted it anyway. There are other ways to support the Seminole Tribe if you so desire. If you are in this area and need a bite later in the evening, I suggest going to the casino hotel, they have a couple of restaurants that stay open and you will get a server there.

Love the atmosphere, waitress was awesome. She did disappear for long periods of time in between but she was great overall. Mac n cheese is a little soupy…texture was a little off so we couldn’t finish it. The Messi burger was extremely delicious and big. Has some of my favorite kinds of French fries. Chicken wings were soooo crisp and moist (my favorite combo) the chicken Caesar my sister said was really really good and she finished the whole thing! Celery was fresh and clean as well! Will come again if I ever can get back to Niagara

I recently visited the restaurant with high expectations. We ordered the Messi Chicken Burger, and unfortunately, the chicken was undercooked and way too chewy, which took away from the experience. However, the restaurant staff understood our concern, and they kindly replaced the burger with an Impossible Mushroom Burger, which we appreciated—so thanks to them!! The Margherita Flatbread was actually good, but was a bit too oily. The highlight of the meal, however, was the fries—they were absolutely superb! Overall - 7/10. I expected a bit more from a place like Hard Rock Cafe.

Amazing experience! Had some great rock music playing while we ate our lunch. Little pricey but it was in the whole area anyway. You go on vacation and have to expect in a highly populated area you will pay more.

Walking into this restaurant is what I always expected a "hard rock" cafe to be decked with collection and music icons and stuff super cool! The food was so good we tried their ribs, salmon and burger. Our waitress, man. I don't know her name, but we got a pic with her. She was soooooo amazing. This is a long overdue review, and I hope she gets a raise cause she was probably one of the best waitress I have ever come across.

We visit all Hard Rocks and I found the experience to be quite average. The ambiance was pleasant enough, with a comfortable and clean setting, though nothing particularly stood out in terms of decor. The service was decent; the staff were friendly and attentive. The food was the most underwhelming aspect. The menu had a good variety, but the dishes we ordered were just okay. The chicken nachos lacked flavor and seemed a bit overcooked, while the salmon was somewhat bland and uninspired. Nothing was particularly bad, but nothing was memorable either. It's an okay option if you're in the area and looking for a quick meal, but I wouldn't go out of my way to dine there again.

Very good food and drinks here. They had a live guitarist here last night. Great service, and it was very busy! The outside of the restaurant makes it look like a very small restaurant. In fact, all we could see from the street was the Hard Rock Cafe Gift Shop, and we wondered if there was a restaurant inside. We gave it a shot, parked the car, and walked in. Very deceiving. When you walk in, it still looks small. Until you realize there are two more dining rooms. It is a fairly large restaurant. Highly recommended! Vegetarian options: Nice place, clean restrooms. Dietary restrictions: Yes Parking: Recommended Kid-friendliness: Yes Wheelchair accessibility: Yes

The host staff was very accommodating, and welcoming. Based on the intial interaction we had high hopes. That quickly fell away. Twenty minutes after taking our order our waitress came back, and said she lost the ticket with our orders on it. When the food finally arrived, over an hour after being seated, several of the items that were ordered did not come as we had ordered. A few items had to be sent back. The items that were ate or not sent back were only eaten, because we had several toddlers in our group. The manager said she would give a discount to our group, but when the bills came out only a few had them on there.

My husband, who was carrying our 7pound doggie, and I had to access the shop through the restaurant door and main entrance since the other door was unaccessible due to maintenance work. The lady in charge at the entrance approached us and started waiving her finger looking at the dog, without saying a word. When he told her we just wanted to reach the shop, she smiled and said shop away! . Personally I didn t like her attitude at all: no greetings, just a judgy expression on her face. A little bit of education wouldn t hurt. Thankfully we had no intention whatsoever to have lunch there. On the contrary the lady at the shop was very nice.

Ordered steak salad. Very little lettuce, watered down ranch dressing, Italian dressing on the side had absolutely no taste. Steak which was supposed to be off the grill was cold as if came straight on the fridge with cold fried onions and sprinkled with seasoned salt or paprika. Sent back and ordered a booburger which was ok. Manager never came over to apologize.

We had a large group of around 25 people (half are teens). Made reservation in advance. The dinner wasn t good at all. 1) only 1 or 2 servers looking after us. 2) they messed up everyone s orders. The server had to shout and ask who ordered Cesar salad, who ordered ribs, etc 3) my wife ordered salad but the lettuce was brown. If you charge $23.99 US for the salad, please make sure you feed us fresh lettuce. 4) had to go to the front to pay. Waited 15 mins to pay my bill. We made the reservation in advance and hard rock should have put more staffs to run the show. I ordered Messi Burger but really nothing special. Nachos was terrible. Will never go back.

I have visited 4 Hard rock cafes in different countries and they have always been spectacular places, so my expectations in Niagara were high, but my disappointment was greater, 2 hours of waiting, 1 hour waiting for a beer, a super rude waitress, To top it off, as soon as we finished eating, we were done, because we had already been in the place for 2 hours, obviously waiting for the food to be brought to us. What a disappointment.

It is a typical Hard Rock, but the volume was so loud we had to almost yell across the table. The waiter said they didnt have any more Printed Pilzners available (we collect from everywhere we go), but the store had hundreds available. The store would not discount the glass since I bought the regular and not commemorative price in the restaraunt. Kid-friendliness: It had a great kids menu with a limited edition toy soccer ball that came with the meal.

Service was slow and inattentive. Most of the food was okay, but when a kids meal is the last to the table...everyone eats cold food. The atmosphere was okay and decor is appropriate, but the musical talent was more folk music and way too loud. Acoustics were terrible and it was impossible to converse. Food

What a shame this new world were living in where you cant get enough employees to operate your business somethings got to change the amount of people I saw that were turned away is a sin you need to start paying your employees a whole lot more money so then you can get new ones I believe that is the only answer and then of course it will reflect on to the consumer where they will have to pay more for their dishes but to turn away customers because you dont have enough employees its pretty stupid.

The hostess with a wig was rude. It was a Friday evening dinner time, I asked for the fajitas, and the server told me theyre out of fajitas....like how!? On a friday dinner time!? Horrible management from the chef and manager to allow fajitas to be out on a friday night. The server took a while to refill our beverages. The server also seemed irritated every time I asked for something. The band was playing way too loud. Could not hold a conversation with the person sitting next to me without yelling in their ear. The server couldnt hear me either, which most likely added to her irritation. The band playing was not good. Not pleasant to listen to, their rowdiness gave me a headache. The food was okay. Beer was nice and cold.

What a huge disappointment. I walked by this restaurant when I was going to Niagara Falls and it smelled good so I placed an Uber eats order To be delivered since I traveled with my two small dogs. The Uber eats person got there 30 minutes after the order was placed, but they waited 30 minutes more to get the order and this was at 4:30 in the afternoon on a Wednesday. The Uber Eats person told me that they said that their chef was on a break. It was estimated that my order would arrive in 35 minutes with the latest arrival an hour and 10 minutes after I place the order and they ended up giving me a $10 discount because it took so long. And this is literally less than a block away. I wish I could say the food was good at least, but it was not it wasn t awful disappointment. I ordered an oriental noodle salad with salmon. The salmon was lovely but the rest was just gross. Maybe if they would ve given me three times as much salad dressing it would ve been better but this was like eating cool cold noodles and lettuce with no flavor. The only flavor really came from the salmon. My dogs are thrilled since they got to share the salmon with me. I also ordered a cheesecake that looks really good, but I haven t tried it yet. I asked for extra whipped cream and they did give me a double serving of whipped cream so thank you for that. I only ordered the Oriental salad because I wanted to try something This was listed as a popular item. I don t know how it possibly could be.

- I arrived at this place on a Tuesday in mid-August at 1:00 p.m. - The restaurants occupancy was 30%. - I didnt eat at the restaurant, I just went to the store to buy a little guitar for my collection. - The store was visibly clean and tidy. - As for the pin designs, there was variety. - Some credit and debit cards are accepted as an additional payment method to cash. - If you have reduced mobility and/or are in a wheelchair, I tell you that access and mobility within the place is of low difficulty. - The attention was good. - Ill share a photo with the phone number and hours they operate.

This place was quite expensive for below average food. The burger was super thin and sad. The fries were very boring. The pulled pork sandwich was decent, but nothing fancy. It wouldnt have been as bad if it wasnt so pricey, but spending $20-30 per person for a very basic bland meal was disappointing. You should go to one of the food trucks instead.

I submitted an email through their web site to book a party for 15. They never replied. I called the day before desired date to inquire about this, they had no idea. Due to short notice, I simply made a lunch reservation for the next day for 4 people at Noon. I mentioned in the original email, on the reservation phone call and several times to our wait staff that it was my sons 14th birthday celebration ( He just took up the drums in the last year and is young enough to be impressed with the Hard Rock). Despite all this, they did not bring his birthday sundae and wish him a happy birthday until all 3 of us, except him, had our desserts and I had to directly order them to do so. Not only that, when we arrived there was a lot of traffic so I had my son and his two school friends get out of the car while I found parking so we would not be late for our reservation. The trio entered the restaurant well before Noon as I caught up with them around 11:55. My son said we had a noon reservation for four for his birthday, they asked him under what name, he gave my full name, and they argued with him back and forth that that was wrong because they had the reservation only under my first name and only last initial! Finally, they showed the trio to a table. When they did not immediately order food stating they were waiting for me to park, they were then escorted out to wait in the lobby carrying their drinks. That all happened before I caught up with them by 11:55 and our reservation was at Noon. Only perhaps one or two other occasions in my over half century of life have I encountered such moronic incompetent hospitality - the antithesis of customer service. Despite this, I left a generous tip. Oh, I should add, that ignoring my sons birthday until I finally had to demand it, was after I discussed plans to buy a souvenir glass for each teenager and the$45 hat and t-shirt combination in their souvenir shop that they actively advertise at the table. We spent a good amount of money in the gift shop afterward. I should mention that I am female, a single mother, my last name is Hispanic, though I am blind and Caucasian, and one person in our party was a black boy. I wonder whether any of these factors had anything to do with our treatment by mainly two women who appeared Caucasian and middle aged. I did not vocally complain much while there as I wanted to raise a positive energy for my son and his friends celebrating his birthday. However, I did take all this time out of my day to write this review here. Parking: I had to let the three kids out to go to the restaurant while I found a paid parking garage as there was heavy traffic and already full parking lots by 11:45am on a Friday. I spent $30 on parking for the 5 hours we were at the Falls. Kid-friendliness: My 14 year old son (there to celebrate his birthday with a reservation) and his two school friends were treated extremely rudely. I submitted an email through their web site to book a party for 15. They never replied. I called the day before desired date to inquire about this, they had no idea.

Band playing was awful and unbearably loud. Couldnt communicate with servers. My meal was forgotten and had to sit and watch everyone at my table eat while I waited. Food was mediocre at best. Much better options in the area.

We ordered the fajitas. After 20-25 mins of waiting we asked where the food was. They brought out 1 order of fajitas by itself. We waiterd for the second order to come out before eating. It came out shortly thereafter, appearing to have been thrown together with old way-overcooked meat. I guess that s what we get for complaining about the wait time to the waiter? The steak was disgusting. It was all dried out. Look at the photos! We couldn t even cut it let alone eat it. We spoke with the manager who insisted on comping us for the meal. Normally we wouldn t accept it but this time it was so gross we didn t want to pay for it. This is probably the worst Hard Rock we have been to in years. We have been to several Hard Rock cafes in various countries and this was the worst. Then the waiter argues with us after we got frustrated about the wait time for the meal to arrive saying that they are going thru a shift change . What does that have to do with the quality of our food or the time it takes to bring it out? Clearly more training is needed for the kitchen staff if they cannot manage a shift change. Do yourself a favor and skip the fajitas. You re better off ordering something safe like a burger that this place can t screw up.

Great location next to Niagara Falls State Park, NY Prospect Street parking. My fajitas were ok, but my husbands burger was great! The waiter asked about food allergies, which I had never been asked before in a restaurant. I appreciated that even though we dont have any allergies. Atmosphere was like any Hard Rock Cafe.

We have a tradition to visit Hard Rock cafes during our trips and collect their T-shirts. Obviously, its a touristic place, could be loud (surprisingly full for Monday) and kind of overpriced, but we love the atmosphere, service, cocktails and food. The Bucharest burger was great. We were served by Mike (Mikhail) and it was amazing! Very polite, quick and non-intrusive. Thanks for a great evening.

I came here for the lunch. The restaurant has beautiful decorative walls. The fries were really good and the burgers too.

August 22, 2024

The food is less than noteworthy. There menu is a bit confusing in that the pictures and calories listed seem like youre going to get a giant burger (what we ordered) that barely fits on the bun - with two patties! When the burger came, I had to search for the second patty, which had disappeared under the first patty. Clocking in at about 1600 calories for our chosen patty, I came to realize the calories were most likely in the sauce and bun, and not the burger or any other toppings. Service was mediocre at best. The Hosts seemed indifferent and the wait staff was barely around - and it was a slow Tuesday evening around 5:30 when we arrived. Our cups dried up several times and we waited with empty cups for a good 5 minutes or more (2 times) as well as another 5 to ask for the bill. The memorabilia was the best part. Youd probably have better luck with the Indian street food just south of this place.

I have been going to Hard Rock cafes for over 20 years when I travel. I collect the t shirts. Today we went into eat in Niagara falls and while we were waiting for our order, I went into the store to get my t-shirt. Elaine waited on me and ask me I I was a rewards member, I said no. She couldnt believe it since I said I collect the t-shirts. She got me to join and to do the survey at that moment so I could get the $5.00 coupon and use it for my food. I spent a lot of time filling it all out and sending it off. I have never received my coupon so no $5.00 off. The moral to this story is dont fall for the scam. Returned in 2024, about the same as before, drink prices are ridiculous but service was good. However I would give them a 2 star rating in how filthy it us outside there door, other places were cleaning there entrances, however this isnt just dirty there us trash everywhere. One has to wonder if they cant keep it clean outside, what happens inside,. I write a lot of reviews because we travel a lot and use reviews.

We stopped here for lunch and the service was out of this world they went above and beyond to make sure we were good and had all we needed the servers were absolutely awesome at their jobs and the food was delicious and on top of that the atmosphere was incredible with all the famous musical artists belongings. On top of that we stopped by later on to use one of their vending machines to find it was jammed and they had 4 people try so hard to fix it for us for roughly 30+ minutes their customer service is 1000% out of this world I would highly recommend.

1st and foremost, I absolutely love the Hard Rock Cafe chain. This one however, definitely needs to talk to its servers about respect. On 30 AUG 2024, as my family and I were being seated we noticed a server speaking very loudly so it grabbed our attention. We heard the waitress telling another family that here in the U.S. it is required to tip as they dont make a living wage from the hourly portion. The man put down 5 dollars and she said this is not a tip and proceeded to have him give her a percentage she chose. Well this employee is dead wrong, it is not a requirement to tip and if shes not good enough at her job to make good tips, its not anyones fault but hers. Disgusting behavior to a foreign family at an international tourist attraction. *The kitchen staff did an amazing job with our food and our server was amazing too.* Photo is of the server I was speaking of, she is seen here wearing a black shirt and standing closest to the camera.

1st time eating at a Hard Rock Cafe. We had a great experience there. Wait time wasnt too long. Glad I convinced my husband were staying. Their wings with bone in was so good. Sorry I love wing stop but these wings were even better then wing stop wings. We ate the bones ok. The ribs were omg so much better than Chillis I love them too. But I have to give credit. We were so full. Thank you for an amazing dinner. It was better then going to fine dining for my birthday. Best birthday dinner choice I had without thinking so hard. The music was great, had us bopping our head. Thank you again. Definitely will eat at another Hard Rock Cafe in the future.

I came in with my son and mother. My mom and I got burgers which were very good. My son ordered the Twisted mac, chicken, and cheese. The mac and cheese was very bland and had hardly any cheese. We spoke to the manager she basically forced my son to pick something else off the menu which he really didnt want anything else. They took the mac and cheese off our bill but then charged us for the replacement meal. Very disappointed in the customer service. The waiter was great just not impressed by the manager.

The Hard Rock is an experience no matter the location. And Ive been to very many across the world. However, this restaurant was by far the worst dining experience. The staff were polite, quick, and helpful. The food particularly, the wings. Ultimate burger and nachos.

Last August 10th I had a bad experience, I had a reservation at 8:30 p.m., I arrived early with my family and when they gave us the table we asked if we could change tables since it was in the hallway of the kitchen and the young man named Galimir Ivanov, in a rude manner told us that there were no tables since the restaurant was at approximately 50% of its capacity and when the waitress went to take our order we asked her if she could change tables and she called him The manager and the manager changed our table but then they changed our waitress and she only went to take the order and never came back to ask if we wanted anything else

Didnt expect anything, still disapointed... Waited close to one hour for almost raw chicken, horrible and dangerous. Food

August 22, 2024

I would not recommend eating here. Grilled chicken sandwich was small, cucumber and tomato salad was loaded with raw onion, the green beans were like rubber. The restaurant needs a good cleaning if not a total remodel. Only saving grace was our bartender/server Russ was very polite and friendly.

We called them and asked if we can walk in and they said yes. We reached there within 5 mins but they refused to give us a table saying we are all full. We could see multiple empty tables. When we asked that these tables are empty then they said yes but since we already have 50 people in the restaurant we can take any more customers in. Then infront of us they gave table to another group. Edit 1: So when we called, you said we don t take reservations you can walk in. And now in the response you are saying that table was reserved? Then why didn t you let us reserve the table when we called and confirmed that there are tables available and we can walk in.

An experience always faithful to the Hard Rock essence was Café Niagara! The venue is truly attractive, with its iconic décor and vibrant atmosphere that perfectly captures the essence of rock and roll. American food is delicious, with a wide variety of dishes to satisfy all tastes. The pork ribs were on point. The location near the park is very convenient, allowing you to enjoy a good meal without going too far from the attractions. The staff is excellent, always friendly and attentive, which makes the experience even more pleasant. Definitely a place I will return to every time I visit Niagara.
