Hard Rock Cafe

Came here with my 9-year-old son for dinner on a Saturday. It’s very kid-friendly! The menu doubles as an activity book and there are plenty of options for kids. Rock music played throughout, but wasn’t too loud. Food was served all at once, which was impressive. While the décor could use a little refresh, the overall experience was enjoyable and I’ll definitely be back.…Read More

Had a wonderful dining experience at Hard Rock Cafe. The lively atmosphere, complete with great music, set the perfect mood for the evening. The staff were attentive, friendly, and provided excellent service. The highlight of the meal was the pork ribs! Its tender, flavorful, and perfectly cooked, easily some of the best I’ve had in a long time. Delicious food, good vibes, and warm hospitality make this a spot worth revisiting. Highly recommended!…Read More

Full review - http://midas400.blogspot.com/2016/03/dinner-at-hard-rock-cafe-orchard.htmlMet up for a birthday dinner treat for Dec sista. We picked this place as it has 1 for 1 main course deal on The Entertainer App, and also it has been many years since we visited it. The restaurant still looks the same with that vintage Cadillac hanging atop the entrance.The usual Rock inspired decor theme with all kinds of electric guitars lining the walls, and various music memorabilia from some of the greatest Rock legends.We ordered a main course each and one appetizer dish for sharing. But first, some refreshing mocktail drinks to start the dinner off proper. Mango Berry Cooler $13++ each.Buffalo Wings $17++, served with blue cheese dip and raw carrot and celery sticks. They were nicely done and pretty addictive to much on.For my main course, it's the Hickory BBQ Ribs (full rack) $34++, served with coleslaw and fries. The ribs were delicious, meat was tender and well flavored with smoky hickory sauce.Other mains ordered were Hickory Smoked BBQ Combo $36++ (Ribs, Chicken & Pulled Pork), and Bacon & Cheese Wagyu Burger $32++. Both were well received by the girls.Hard Rock Cafe is still the place to go to for classic American food. Despite being in operations for over 25yrs in SG, food quality and service are still well maintained. It's not a bad choice for friends to hang out over yummy food and drinks, while listening to Rock music.…Read More

Hard Rock Cafe is probably one of the oldest restaurants in this area - it's been here ever since I was a kid but I've never once tried the food before. Since it's Christmas Eve, most restaurants do not take reservations but surprisingly Hard Rock Cafe did.We ordered a Nachos to share and just when I thought "how wrong can you go with nachos", the one I had here was really quite bad. The Nachos were not crisp at all and felt like it's been left out for a long time. Some bits were even too hard to bite. It was rather disappointing, really.I also decided to try the Legendary 10oz burger. The fries were pretty good - very salty and addictive. But the burger was another letdown. The beef patty wasn't marinated very well and had quite a strong beefy taste to it. It's not the driest burger I've had, but I thought it was rather bland as it didn't come with any sauces at all.Overall, the food wasn't great and the atmosphere of the place feels like a sleazy bar with a very bad live band. I definitely will not be re-visiting this outlet anytime soon.…Read More

Although the exterior of the restaurant venue looks run down, the interior seems rather well-kept. It was almost as if you were brought into a different world upon entering.The aircon was on full blast and it was really cold, I wonder if how cold the restaurant was contributed to how fast the food got cold so quickly. The service was really good because the waitress, Geraldine, actually told us that she wouldn't recommend that we order more as she thought it would be enough. Though we weren't quite as full as we thought we'd be after the meal, I think it was rather good of the waitress to recommend what she did instead of just silently recording all the orders. There was also a manager walking around and checking on all the tables--I got to say the service is probably one of the best I've had in Singapore in recent months.The portion wasn't as big as I thought they may be--it might have shrunk down from the typical American portion to cater to the Asian crowd, but it's still decently huge.Ribs and Pulled Pork Combo.There are many ways that you can order the ribs and we decided to try the ribs and pulled pork combination so that we could taste the best of both worlds. The food, unfortunately got cold quickly, but I'd have to say the ribs were better than the pulled pork. The pulled pork was served on top of a slice of bread, but it wasn't particularly savory and felt a tad dry.For an add-on of about $5, you could add on the salad. We ordered the Caesar Salad and it was tossed nicely. I'd say it's a very worth it ad-on and it paired nicely with our main course.We wanted something small for dessert as we had a sweet tooth--the presentation surprised us as the cheesecake was served in a small cup and it was literally cream cheese with a tiramisu-like powdery top. The way they draped the chocolate syrup on the interior and along the glass did add points to the presentation.…Read More

It was pretty big piece of salmon that was served to me with steamed vegetables and mashed potatoes. Big portion is always expected when you are at hard rock cafe. So take note that it can be good to share. The grilled side of the salmon is soft and well marinated. The grilled taste was there and it was very nice. Underneath the grilled side, the salmon skin was crispy and good too. If you like salmon, this dish is highly recommended. The only problem is that the restaurant tend to get a little noisy. …Read More

Did you know that hard rock cafe sells satay as well? I decided to give it a try when I saw it being offered in the menu It took a while to be served. But it was worth the wait. The meat was so soft and succulent and extremely tasty even without dipping it into the satay sauce. On it's own it was already pretty powerful. I also ordered a glass of hard rock labelled wine. It's a blend from California. It was smooth, fruity and easy to drink. Very lovely.…Read More

Ceasar salad here at Hard rock cafe is really nice as the chicken that is added in the salad adds a nice taste anf flavor to the salad. The salad is also mixed in a cajun flavored sauce and this dish has other ingredients such as shredded cheese, tomato, fresh lettuce and of course the fried chicken cubes. Love this salad and portions are huge making irt great for sharing. try the onion rings too which are really crispy and aromatic. The nachos are also great for sharing as the portions are big.…Read More

I was at an event in Hard Rock Cafe yesterday. They had launched Rock wines. It was very cool. Wines from California. Tried all the reds available and highly recommend the Merlot. It was easy to drink, so great for starters. The blend was also not bad, worth a try. Ordered their Hay Grill Chicken salad. This is one of my favourite salad from Hard Rock cafe. I love that their salad portion is very generous. There were enough green to fill me up. It's also very tasty with chicken cubes, avocado and pecan nuts. …Read More

If you love great tasting american food, with big portion, and if you love live music, then you must visit the Hard Rock Cafe especially during dinner hours. This place is one of my favourite restuarant. I have tried many of their dishes unfortunately I can only find one picture to share today. A few must try dishes. Jumbo Combo, a combination of few or their starters put together.Ribeye steak. BBQ Ribs and Chicken. My personal favourite is all their salads. Friendly service, generous portion. Definitely worth your time. …Read More

My first visit to hard rock cafe in singapore which is to this outlet. It kind of like having the building itself. The entrance of it is nice, got a car on top of it too, unique. The food is quite nice, more of western food. Plus point is that there is also music, live band to make the night, the dinner more lively. There is also hard rock shop there, my first hard rock cafe jacket bought from there. …Read More

FoodDecided to visit my Favourite place as a fan of Hard Rock. Every diner will have a piece of hard rock cafe serviette placed on the table with the dinning utensils on top of it.16oz of Mango Berry Cooler at $10.00 consist of tropical blend of mangos, strawberries, pineapple juice, orange juice and sweet & sour mix topped with lemon-lime soda. Totally refreshing , a mouth filled with fruity taste!For starters we ordered POTATO SKINS, these are large potato shells, fried till golden brown with cheddar cheeses, crisp seasoned bacon and green onions. Sour cream is provided in the saucer. By reading "potato skins" on the menu, initially i thought that it is thin like chips but it is actually not. It dont really taste like you have biting on potatoes and I simply loves the big square bacon bits scattered onto them.A close-up of the potato skins. Looks Yammy.16oz of Wildberry Smoothie at $8.00.A frozen delight of fresh bananas, piña colada mix, orange juice and raspberry syrup finished off with a slice of fresh pineapple. Dont really like it as its thickness of smoothie and rich smell resembles coconut cream. Nevertheless, I had finished it!HICKORY SMOKED BAR-B-QUE COMBO! Its a very good choice to order if you are unsure what to order as the Trio Combo at $35 consists of HICKORY SMOKED BAR-B-QUE CHICKEN, SMOKED BAR-B-QUE RIBS, SMOKED PULLED PORK SANDWICH, 3 types served with seasoned fries, ranch beans & fresh coleslaw. Surprisingly the ranch beans is hot and not directly just from the can.BBQ chicken is their famous Southern-style, half-chicken, rubbed, grilled and basted with their authentic Hickory BBQ sauce. For Smoked BBQ Ribs, it comes with a full rack of West Tennessee-style ribs rubbed then basted with their authentic Hickory BBQ sauce and cooked to perfection. Easy cut for us!Last but not least their HICKORY SMOKED PULLED PORK SANDWICH is what I like most. I love the biting sensation that resembles shredded chicken. Smoked pork is hand pulled, its tender and juiceness taste left me utterly speechless. Definite MUST TRY! It has a crunchy toast laid below the pulled pork. Yammy!A full rack of ribs !Pulled pork that hides under the ribs. ServiceService is definitely good. waitress offer to help me hang my bag on the chair and mentioned that it will be more comfortable sitting that way. During meals, she will come up to us and check if the food is ok.AmbienceTwo stories high cafe area. No one would say HRC is lacking of ambience! HRC is a good place to celebrate your birthday at. Everyone in the cafe will sing you a birthday song if you go up the stage and they will cheer for you. During certain scheduled hours, you will get to see live bands on the stage. And for normal timing, there will be TV display everywhere around the corner in the cafe that shows some MTVs. Its a crowded area well-liked by us.PricePrice is definitely alright with such big generous portions of food. Recommendations / TipsGood place for group gathering especially. Call in advance for reservations.…Read More

Read the full review here: http://iisjong.blogspot.sg/2012/09/hard-rock-cafes-latest-menu-addition.html ;)A lot of people have been asking "Why is there no seafood dishes in the menu?", so they've taken in the feedback and decided to come up with a few. I tried 4 of their new seafood dishes alongside with some of their Classic dishes.Mango-Berry CoolerFirst up was of course the drinks! This was a really yummy tropical blend of fresh mangos, strawberries, pineapple juice, orange juice and sweet & sour mix topped with lemon-lime soda. You can ask for it to be served in a Hurricane glass.Groupie GrindThis drink is a housemade pina colada mix and pineapple juice blended with a strawberry swirl, served in a Martini glass. It was magnificent!Crispy Sea BassI felt that this pan-fried sea bass fillet didn't have the fishy taste that lingers on a lot of fishes that I eat (and hate). It was soft and served with pesto sauce!Seafood PlatterThis was my favourite dish out of the 4! There's a variety of battered sea bass fillet, grilled prawns, seasoned fries WHICH WAS VERY ADDICTIVE, calamari rings and soft shell crab. It wasn't too overly greasy, as if I'm eating a platter of oil.I like the prawns out of all because it was juicy and the meat was grilled well.Chilli Crab SpaghettiThe garlic toast by the side sure made the dish looked angelic. I think. Oh well, it's an American thing!This dish was very Singaporean style, with a little mix of Western! Everyone agreed that it looked and tasted very similar to another local dish - Mee Goreng. I felt that it didn't taste like pasta due to the sticky and dry taste. Also, normally I like to add cheese to my spaghetti, but there wasn't any for this dish. Not sure whether to classify this as spaghetti or not...Do take note that this was a little bit too spicy for me. For spicy lovers, this would be heaven!Crab Fried RiceThis was our last seafood dish. It was very unexpecting to find something so Asian style in this Western place. You can find crab meat, prawns and mushrooms hidden amongst the olive rice, all wrapped up in an egg omelette. Great for those who are looking for a healthy alternative and us Asians who need our daily carbs (rice)!Hickory Smoked Bar-B-Que RibsNext up, we had their Classics. This was my favourite, and it's from their Smokehouse Menu! My eyes lighted up in glee as I tried this full rack of West Tennessee-style ribs, which is rubbed then basted with their authentic Hickory BBQ sauce. It was practically cooked to perfection, and the meat... It was meaty and easy to chew it off. It is served with seasoned fries, ranch beans & fresh coleslaw.Twisted Mac, Chicken & CheeseI posted a picture of this on Instagram (@iisjong), and I received a lot of comments telling me how this was their favourtie dish! From the Entrees Menu, this dish was served with garlic toast. Right on top of the macaroni is grilled chicken breast, topped off twisted cavatappi pasta. As for the macaroni itself, it is tossed in a lightly spiced 3-cheese sauce, with garlic roasted red peppers and Romano parsley bread crumbs. It's really yums, no wonder it got so many people salivating when they saw it!Hot Fudge Brownie SundaeMoving on to my favourite part of the night - the desserts!This divine dessert we have right here is a combination of Haagen-Dazs vanilla ice cream and hot fudge on a fresh brownie, topped with chopped walnuts, chocolate sprinkles, fresh whipped cream and a cherry. It was sinful but worth it!Mud PieYou HAVE to try this when you're at Hard Rock Cafe! With a cookie crust filled with a heavenly concoction of coffee and chocolate ice cream topped with hot fudge and crunchy almond flakes, this was THE BOMB. Up till today, I cannot forget the yummilicious of this.Overall, Hard Rock Cafe is definitely a good candidate as an oasis for hungry souls who are looking for heaven in their mouth and bellies, and at the same time, bask in a pretty damn good environment. Now with the newly launched seafood dishes, it's definitely THE place to be for food! *licks lips*…Read More

The FoodI ordered the most popular starters to share with my friends which include Santa Fe Spring Rolls, Hickory-Smoked Chicken Wings, Onion Rings, Potato Skins & Tupelo Chicken Tenders. Santa Fe Spring RollsThis western spring rolls are quite unique as are stuffed with spinach, black beans, cilantro, corn, jalapenos, diced red peppers and Jack cheese. The freshly made sauces (Hard Rock Salsa, guacamole and Chipotle Ranch dressing) really goes well with the spring rolls hence are also nice and special Tupelo Chicken TendersThis is quite similar to chicken nuggets The chicken meat inside is well-seasoned with crispy skin and not to be missed are the honey-mustard and Hickory BBQ sauces on the side Hickory-Smoked Chicken WingsThis is my first time eating smoked chicken wings. The wings are well marinated and well-smoked with a nice and unique aroma. It also come with a choice of Classic Rock, Heavy Metal or Tangy BBQ sauces. As I like BBQ stuff, hence I choose BBQ sauces to go with the wings and after tasting, is a perfect combination!! Potato SkinsTo me, the potato skins taste like normal potato chips but filled with extra ingredients with Jack & Cheddar cheeses, crispy bacon and green onions and also served with sour cream for dipping. The ServiceThe waitress are friendly and always with a smile and serves the food promptly with excellent service.The AmbienceOn every night, there is a Live band who played rock music which made me feel relaxed and soothing to the ears which made my dining experience perfect !!The PriceReasonably priced at $28 to enjoy the varieties of their house specialities with nice musicOverallI will definitely come back again to try other varieties and highly recommended to try this! …Read More

I went there for a lovely meal after one fun filled day at universal studios. The ambience is very comforting. The burger is really wholesome, you got plenty of vegetables in it. the meat is very juicy. but of all the thing on the plate, I love the bread the most. It was toasted till very crispy, the inside is moist and soft. when you take a bite, you will experience different textures, from the crispy bread to the tender meat. On top they have a salad side dish. The salad is very fresh and crisp, gives it an additional crunch.…Read More
