Ambiance
Love all. Serve All. That’s the mantra of Hard Rock Café and its teams. And our own office team sure felt the love when we all walked through the glass doors and into the restaurant’s open, spacious floor plan. From the beams in the vaulted ceiling shaped like the neck and frets of a guitar, to the iconic memorabilia from artists such as REM, Prince, Paul Simon, Eddie Van Halen, and the Beatles lining the walls, it was quite the Grammy adventure. Immediately, we were given the Rock Star treatment, led to a table right by the center stage, where guitarists serenaded us with rock ballads, as our ace server, Brittany, paraded course after course of fantastic platters our way. We had the pleasure of experiencing what Hard Rock Café has been showing off for over 43 years: ultimate cuisine prepared by a team of culinary artists, exceptional service, and most of all, a unique dining experience that makes you feel part of a perfectly orchestrated show. The staff was like our own group’s personal entourage, determined to spoil us rotten. From the moment we arrived to the second we left, all our needs were anticipated and met with courtesy and graciousness. Located at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino, The Hard Rock Café, Hollywood is conveniently located to all major highways, making it accessible for all groups in in the tri-county area.
