Hard Rock Cafe

My app was fantastic!
Let me start by saying I sat outside…
Servicer was fast and he was nice except…
There was a couple sitting a table over with 2 dogs… my server pet the dogs and continued touching people’s dishes and utensils… personally I think he needed to wash his hands prior to touching anything.

I’ve been to over a dozen Hard Rock Cafes, so there was no question I’d be stopping at their Pittsburgh location on my recent visit for a Pirates’ game & stop at the must-​see Warhol Museum.
I went during mid afternoon (3:30 or so) & was politely greeted & seated right away. Visiting a Hard Rock, I generally order the same thing every time on my first visit & they nailed it — the Honey Mustard Grilled Chicken.
Some fun mementos from rock & roll history, of course — boots owned by The Edge, a Pittsburgh Steelers’ themed guitar, Eddie Van Valen’s guitar from a show in the city & tons more.
The service was fast, friendly & efficient & a visit to the Rock Shop after my meal did do a bit of damage to my wallet. If I return to Pittsburgh, I’ll definitely be back.

My vote is always to go for a local establishment over a chain restaurant. However, we came here this past Friday evening around 7:30’ish for a friend’s farewell dinner. And surprisingly, we did enjoy our food and drinks better than expected.
Since the weather was somewhat windy we opted to stay inside in the separated dinning area since we were in a large group of about 12. Our server was friendly, prompt and very accommodating to our requests.
For such a big establishment, I didn’t feel like they had much of a beer selection but what they had was good enough. Since most of the Unilocalers were raving about the «Legendary Burger» — I went with the medium rare (the only way to go IMO) and my S.O. ordered the shrimp/​chicken fajita. A vegetarian in the group ordered the «Veggie Leggie» which I was told was not too appetizing. The Legendary burger I ordered tasted great. Juicy with a couple strips of crispy bacon on top. Can’t go wrong with bacon… The portions or at least the «cheese/​veg fillings» and the «tortilla» for the fajita was just a bit more than my S.O. could handle.
I believe, the band started playing around 9 and could get pretty loud if you’re dinning inside in the main/​bar area. Overall, we all had a great time. The food and the service was good. The location is great! And since the three river trail passes through station square — so perhaps, a future pit stop for some food and drinks might just happen this summer.

Horrible hard rock. Hardly edible.
Was so pumped to go here with my family for lunch– and it was soooo bad. Don’t let the food picture fool you. Food items were sour, our meals had to be sent back to the kitchen to be warmed up. It was so bad that we actually had to speak to the manager. He was great, he took some $ off the bill, and even brought my 3 year old niece a gift from the gift shop. Drinks were delicious though.

I am giving this location 5 stars because of the customer service. Our 5 year old son is autistic and loves the band Kiss, he loves to eat at Hard Rock because of the Kiss memorabilia. The staff at Hard Rock is so amazing and friendly. Our son runs to his favorite table where he has a clear view of the Kiss items and the staff never steers us to a different table. The food is good too! But knowing that we have a safe and inviting place to take our kids is the best feeling. Thank you Hard Rock Pittsburgh for being autism friendly.

There are few things I want in a restaurant. Red wine… And for my wine to come in a wine glass, not a plastic cup.

Every Hard Rock restaurant has inventory that is swapped between stores, and it is always really interesting to see what’s on their walls.
This location is always more than accommodating towards myself and my family. I spent my last three birthdays here with my family and most recently they set up the back room for us. The server we had was also great. He made sure we were all taken care of.
Their food is delicious and the prices are just right for the quality. My only complaint is they got rid of my absolute favorite dish from any restaurant. I miss the Honey Citrus Grilled Chicken Salad. It had red onions, oranges, pecans, red pepper strips, cranberries, and blue cheese. Their honey citrus dressing was to die for. They swapped it out for a similar dish called Grilled Chicken Arugula Salad, but it’s not as good as the former.

Hard Rock Café is a pretty standard place. I love the outdoor seating at this location in the summer time, but it’s winter now, eh. Went last night with some friends and sat in the dining area. I was worried it was going to be really busy but it wasn’t! A band was setting up for later on and it wasn’t loud at all. There was a WIDE range of people dining, formal dresses, teenagers on dates, older people, etc. good people watching!
Our waiter, Dom, was pretty cool. He kept our drinks flowing and came by often to check on us. The pulled chicken sandwich was really good, yummy BBQ sauce and the chicken was very tender. We had a bunch of drinks and they have a decent drink menu but I do think some of the cocktail prices are a little outrageous. I know it’s Hard Rock but sheesh.
Anyway, we go here every once in a while and will keep going back for sure. I like Station Square a lot and the parking garage makes it easy and convenient to go to (unlike other areas of the city where parking is an annoyance).

Usually for a chain restaraunt the Hard Rock is pretty good. Well this time around we go to the Rock for a late dinner and order the spinach artichoke dip. They are suppose to come with pita bread, but guess what… they are out of the pita bread and the waitress doesn’t tell us but assumes that nacho chips are ok. Well, guess what… nacho chips tastes vastly different than pita bread. Since we were hungry we ate it but really!!! Don’t just assume that a substitution is OK. Very disappointed with this one

We waited about 45 minutes to get in. Have visited many Hard Rock Cafes over the years and have always left happy. Today’s meal was just okay. I had the local legendary. Tasted like a bland pierogie. My husband had the schnitzel sandwich and said it was «alright». My son would not eat the chicken tenders, which is normally his favorite food. The service was great. Heather, our server, was very quick to refill drinks and totally embarrassed my nephew for his birthday. The food is rather pricey and could taste better for the cost.

My companion and I had a great time this late afternoon at Hard Rock. We were down at Station Square to check out the Nina & Pinta boats (which were cool.). We decided on Hard Rock because we could get burgers and eat outside. The food tasted great, the service was just right, and eating outdoors at 5:30 or so was awesome. The fountain was in time with the music being played, there were just enough kids enjoying the fountain to make it enjoyable to watch them without it becoming distracting, the air temp was warm, the sky was clear. .. simply a fantastic way to conclude the day!

After the Ducky Tour, you receive a 15% off coupon at the Hard Rock. That made for a nice combination! We had great service and attention from our waiter John. Food was good except for grilled chicken which was flavorless and colorless. Prices are high for an average meal

My husband and I were quite disappointed with our lunch here yesterday. When we entered the restaurant we were greeted by a very friendly and welcoming hostess but after that things seemed to go down hill once we had our server. After looking at the menu I decided to get the grilled chicken salad that had feta, dried cranberries, «grilled chicken» and oranges in it. My husband had the bbq burger which was recommended by the waiter as being the one everyone got. After waiting almost an hour for our food and seeing everyone around us receive their food the waiter came over to tell us that he had dropped my husbands burger and that they had to remake the burger but mind you he still did not have the food with him. The waiter proceeded to tell us how sorry he was but that he wanted to be honest with us and not blame the kitchen. He then continued to tell us some more about his personal situation and apologize some more to the point where it became awkward since we still didn’t have our food and what he was saying about his personal life. Finally our food arrived and neither of us were completely happy with our meals. After waiting so long and then being told my husbands meal was dropped on the ground we expected the manager could have stopped by. My husbands burger was a lot smaller than the ones we saw brought to the tables around us and I wasn’t thrilled with the grilled chicken on my salad that looked like deli meat. I mentioned to the waiter that I thought it was supposed to be grilled chicken and the waiter immediately told me he promised me it wasn’t deli meat but that it was supposed to make it easier to cut. Needless to say after this experience we will not be returning.
