Hard Rock Cafe — Restaurant in Los Angeles

Service so bad that I never even recieved my meal. There is only 1 photo of the food I ate, because that's the only food I received. I have no doubt that this place is capable of being a good restaurant. The menu looked ok, mostly burgers and drinks that force you to buy a commerative cup. We waited a few minutes, sat down and waited for a few minutes to meet our waitress. We were pretty excited as it looked like a good place for a solid burger and the wait was minimal for being in the heart of Hollywood. I was a little concerned after seeing the kitchen staff, they had an open kitchen that's viewable to the guests, was throwing food at each other and playing around in the kitchen. Once we ordered I was told they were changing kegs for the beer I ordered so I ended up waiting about 15 minutes for my beer. Once it came out, it was half foam. The waitress assured me they would come out and top it off, which seemed odd. Why serve that? Halfway through my beer, I had to ask about getting the rest of my beer so they whisked away my beer and it came back full. Ok, so it took 20 minutes for a beer, not a great start. We get our appetizer, which wasn't anything special, and they didn't give usnplates or anything with it, then I await our waitress to order another beer, hoping Id I order it early enough I can have it faster than last time. We have to flag her down because she won't look at us as she walks by our table and I'm finally able to order another drink. My drink comes and then our food arrives. First off, the kids meal is a sloppy slice of cheese pizza thrown on a plate from what looked like was across the room and 3 bite size chunks of pineapple in a stainless steel cup. My wife's burger looked ok, but mine was not what I ordered. I tried the side dish I ordered, Mac and cheese, and it was ice cold. I've never sent anything back in my life at a restaurant, but this was noticably old and room temperature. The food and drinks are delivered by random staff throughout so we don't get asked if everything looks alright, or if we need anything. It just gets dropped off. So, now I have the wrong food and I haven't seen my waitress in 15 minutes. I flag down what looked like the manager and asked him what was on the local burger, which is what i ordered, and he assures me that what I was given. I had to pull apart the burger to show that what he said was on it wasn't there. He realizes I'm right and he takes back the food apologizing. I'm told my burger is coming right out a few different times, but after another 15 minutes, my good is still nowhere to be found and my kid and wife have been done with their meal for a few minutes now. We've now been at the restaurant almost an hour and a half and decide to just cut our losses. I flag the manager down and let him know we just want to pay and leave. He apologizes a lot and takes care of everything except the beers I had. Another rmanager comes out and apologizes, which was nice, but we were ready to go so we decline anything they offer. Eventually, I'm given a free pint glass and we leave. The management crew did good at reacting to the problems, but the service we received might be the worst ever. My daughter loves her pizza, but my wife wasn't impressed with her food. Ever the appetizer wasn't anything special. All in all, the place has some serious work to do on basic customer care. I'm sure it was a newer waitress, as she seemed lost the entire time, but the experience was still really bad. There is no other way to put it. The management team reacted well, but by that point we were too frustrated to have anything fixed. We just wanted to leave. So I informed the manager how badly the service was by the waitress and we left. Like I said, I'm sure this place is capable of being a solid spot for dinner, but in this particular instance, it ruined our family day...

Review for vegans: They have a few nice vegan options, however I had an odd experience at this Hard Rock location.

First the vegan options: my boyfriend got the quinoa bowl with vegan steak and loved it & they also have tacos with vegan steak, stir fry bowl, Malibu meatless wings, and impossible burger (modify to vegan).

Now my experience: I ordered the “Malibu meatless wings”, which I thought were good besides the fact that they were covered in a spicy sauce which was too hot for my taste. They did come with a side of vegan ranch so I managed just fine and still enjoyed them. I’ve had very similar vegan wings like this in the past and while they may not taste just like “real” chicken wings, I did like them and thought it was something different to order. However, our waiter was very odd. When I initially ordered these wings he told me that he had never experienced a customer who had ordered them and enjoyed them. He told me that he had personally tasted them and did not like them even though they are freshly made from scratch in house. None of the other options sounded too intriguing for me at the moment and I really wanted to try the wings, so I stuck with ordering them. I have been to many Hard Rock’s around the world and have ordered vegan just fine. My family is not vegan and they seem to have never had anything disgusting at any Hard Rock so I thought to myself “clearly they have competent chefs with taste buds and the food will not taste absolutely disgusting like the waiter is proposing”. Anyways, I enjoyed my wings with the vegan ranch and when he came to check on the table he was surprised that I liked them. This was odd enough to me, but I had brushed it off because I thought he was being helpful giving his honest feedback and merely trying to help. However, a manager then came to the table and said something along the lines of “wow, you actually are enjoying the wings? They make them in house, so that’s good. I’ve been too scared to try them, and I’m too scared to even try the impossible burger! I don’t know what that is so I don’t want to know”. As a vegan this made me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. I have my own beliefs and eat vegan because of them, but then to have multiple staff come and make my dietary choices seem repulsive to them was very rude. I came here because I had family in town visiting and it is a tradition to visit Hard Rock when we go to a new country/city. I was very disappointed to have the Hard Rock that is in my home city be the first Hard Rock experience I didn’t enjoy simply because of service. I am sad to not want to bring more of my family here when they come...
