    Interesting bar with interactive private sports rooms. I got an Aperol spritz on happy hour for $10. Every day during the week from 11a - 6p is happy hour. Took a quick tour of the many sporting rooms one with two sets of golf clubs to use. Going to come back with a group of friends to play. Starting next week, every Monday at 7pm is golf night league for teams of 2.

    We came to eat here before viewing the Christmas light display (light display was awesome). The food and drinks here are your average bar food but overpriced in my opinion. I wouldnt go out of my way to come here again.

    Checked out this place to host a happy hour with my co workers. I wanted to try out something interactive. I booked a area as it was going to be a large group of us. We ordered appetizers for the table and some cocktails that were on the happy hour menu. The wings hands down were phenomenal, highly recommend them. My issue was that several of the pieces needed to play the different sports were broken which was disappointing. For the food and activity altogether it wasn't a bad price. I could see myself going again.

    I came here for a Ft. Lauderdale Chamber event and got to check out the games. They have 5 areas with virtual games (dodgeball, golf, as and. More) It's nice because you have your own little area so you can have a party. They have a full bar so you can order drinks as well.

    Loved this place!! Was super awesome, great food and great drinks and awesome staff. Will definitely go back sometime soon!

    Salad

    I came in for lunch and am happy I had time to kill. I was the only person in the restaurant, so I sat at the bar. The bartender was extremely friendly. I did order a salad with chicken on it. It's not a complicated order at all. I have no idea what took them so long, but it was beyond an eternity for the chicken salad. The salad cost me $28, the most expensive salad I have ever paid anywhere I have traveled. Yes, the argument can be made that you are at the Hard Rock; what did you expect? I wanted a salad that would blow me away, but this was not it at all. It was an average salad. Other items may be worth the heavy price tag, but this was not it in the least.

    The drinks was on point Once again I found myself in the casino When family is in town you go where you gotta go The ambience is a cross over with a dive bar with arcade adult games . Nice. Our server was very attentive - thank you Laila We ordered the chicken quesadillas and the burger And we were not disappointed and once again I was amazed by the food one would find in a casino. The food brought us back to our childhoods Food 5/5 Ambience 5/5 Location 5/5

    We came here before seeing a show at hard rock live. We reserved ahead of time where you can use your credit card to reserve your space in one of the bays. The bays include a lot of virtual game options which was cool, however not too sure about the accuracy of the games. For example, in basketball, we were hitting the backboard repeatedly, but never got any points! We had a few drinks and we ordered chips and salsa, which was absolutely terrible not even pretending to be restaurant quality. So we decided not to eat dinner there. At first, I thought it would be a fun place to go with a group but after this experience, I don't think I'll be returning.

    We stopped by here for lunch after a pool party in the area. We had Cobb Salad with chicken. It was really good and hit the spot. The bill was $58 + tip for 2 small salads, just in case you are curious. A bit on the high side. We drank water. Our server was Jennifer, who was friendly and attentive. This is a cool spot to play virtual golf, get some good food, good drinks, and hang out. It's part of Seminole Hard Rock. This was our second time here.

    Came for a work outing, let me start with ambiance, if you are an entertainment location, I'd say it doesn't matter what day it is you have to entertain. But for the benefit of the doubt it was Monday afternoon. Games: selection is not bad however the equipment has seen BETTER DAYS!!! They need to replace a lot of things here replenish and ensure all chests have all and enough items to play with. I noticed in one chest there was no baseball and other items were missing. There's no consistency here. The games need to be calibrated. The rooms are a little tight to play certain games... there's a risk you could hit someone... but no worries about it that's why you have to SIGN A waiver before you play. Food: we ordered appetizers platters; first off the chicken wings were over salted, the pizza was dried and undercooked, and lacked seasoning... I didn't tasted the sliders nor the chicken strips. Service was a bit slow, I am sure they could've sold more if the service was more attentive... not too impressed this time around.

    Phenomenal networking event for Social Impact Committee of the Greater Fort Lauderdale Chamber of Commerce this morning! Last monthly breakfast meeting of 2024. Delicious food supplied by Jessica of the always delicious Red Chair Catering, and Mimosas by the fabulous PLA bartending staff! Wonderful ambiance, fun and upbeat with games available to play after the presentation! If you're looking for a different venue for a Party or Event, this place is a winner!

    I visited PLA Hard Rock around 10:30 PM with my hubby and a friend last night while visiting the Fort Lauderdale area, because received the recommendation for Wednesday night karaoke. Our waitress, Megan was AMAZING and provided excellent service. However, the overall experience was awkward due to hiccups with our food, alcohol and some incident that caused the police to be called (not involving us or anyone that we knew). The manager seemed a bit flustered and overwhelmed and was a bit off in approach. We ordered two Pla margaritas. They were supposed to have Casamigos in them, but they tasted awful, lacking Casamigos and including a weird after taste of spritzer. After sending them back, we opted for tequila shots with lime and those were better. The manager ended up giving the returned drinks back, but I didn't finish mine because it was not good. We ordered Buffalo wings, fries, a Philly cheese steak and sweet potato tots. The sweet potato tots were really good and I'd order them again, but everything else was okay at best. The Philly was decent for soaking up the shots, but reminded me of the frozen Steakems you can buy from the grocery store. The wings were initially sent out soft like they were baked Tyson frozen wings, and they ended up dropping them in the fryer for us upon request, and that helped. The fries were okay but had an odd breading on them. Karaoke was enjoyable to watch, but we were not able to participate before the cut off at midnight. To request to sing songs, you can scan the QR code in the back of the bar and it'll populate the location and music options. I recommend arriving earlier and participating via the submission form before 10:30 to meet the midnight cut off. The djay called my song, but the manager told him to stop karaoke because of the time and whatever incident that occurred. My overall rating toggles between a 3 and 4 based on the food, drinks and service. I enjoyed the experience and our waitress was a sweetheart, but the hiccups impacted my experience.

    It was my first time in an interactive sports bar , and all I can say it was so much fun . So many games to play as a team or solo ! The staff was super friendly and the drinks were amazing ! I had a coconut mojito with no alcohol and the bartenders still make sure it was delicious! Can't wait to come with friends for a night out !

    Unfortunately, we had a very disappointing experience…read more We came on a Sunday for dinner, were seated, and then waited about 15 minutes for a server -- no one approached us during that time. The cappuccino I ordered was extremely disappointing: watery and tasteless, more like diluted milk. It honestly feels like there is no proper barista who understands how to make a good cappuccino. Things only got worse -- I had to look for a server myself just to get sugar, and after asking, it still took another ~10 minutes. We waited around 25 minutes for the Philadelphia rolls, which is already quite long, but the result was even worse: there was barely any cream cheese. The taste was completely off -- just poorly made rolls with almost no filling. I visited this place about six months ago and the service was noticeably better. Now it feels like both the service and food quality have significantly declined. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this place.

    Great European Lounge in Hallandale! I called the same day…read moreand couldn't get a table, so I'd definitely recommend booking a few days ahead if you want a spot on Friday or Saturday night. At first, I wasn't too happy -- there were no outdoor seats available and the music at the bar was super loud. We ended up sitting all the way in the back next to a wall by the bathrooms, and the vibe there was just okay. Later, we moved closer to the outside and it completely changed the experience -- I enjoyed it so much more! The drinks are a little pricey but absolutely worth it -- we had the Tikki Kill and it was delicious. The music was amazing and kept the energy up all night. The couches are super comfy, the hookah service is great (they change the charcoal without you even asking), and free parking is a huge plus. The service was friendly and attentive, which made the night even better. The only downsides are that you really need to make a reservation ahead of time for weekends, otherwise you might end up stuck at the bar or in a less atmospheric spot. Also, there are only two gender-neutral restrooms, so there can be a bit of a wait.

    I'm visiting the Foodie & Cocktail BFF and we're looking for a post dinner place in Fr. Lauderdale…read morewhere we can catch up over some cocktails on a weekday night. Sidecar Speakeasy was the play... The speakeasy entrance was hidden in a hallway you can walk right by without even noticing. I dig it. Once inside, it's dark. Most of the light is coming from the light showcasing the bottles in the bar. The seating is a little tight as they're trying to maximize space for such a small area. We visited here twice during my visit: We sat at a table and a bar. You have the perfect amount of space for your party, but you're pretty close to the next table or bar seat. No claustrophobic vibes though. All the mixologists were great during both visits. One visit, we ordered their signature cocktails from the menu. When we sat at the bar, we had the mixologist surprise with a cocktail off the menu. He just asked what kind of liquor vibe we wanted, and he took it from there. He was super creative with every cocktail which made for a great time. They stayed upon until midnight one one visit and until 1 am on the other one. Both my visits were on a weekday. The sidecar speakeasy is easily my favorite bar in Fort Lauderdale and I have a feeling I'll be back. Enjoy!

So we started with some Espresso Martinis and they were perfectly made and balanced, well done Limarys! We also enjoyed some complimentary Chicharones. Classy. See pics. We rocked out to the musician who was playing and really, really enjoyed the overall aesthetic of the place. They spared no expense in décor and design and acoustics. The bartop is amazing, all new glassware, they have their own chef and kitchen separate of the casino. It is really a high class spot and I should probably gatekeep it, but I'll see you there.
