My friend saw a post online about this place and it looked worth a trip. We went in and had such a great time. The service at the bar was good and the drinks were nice. The bartenders were personable and accommodating. It wasn't their busiest night but I liked that because we were able to be served quickly. There was another employee that helped us over at the gaming section and she was very friendly. I wish I would've remembered their names. The games were fun and I could see this being a great place for a date or friends/ family outing as it was for us. The food was good. A con would be the pricing of the food. My BBQ chicken was $18.50 and that was without fries. The DJ was doing his thing and was able to mix in some song request. We went during karaoke night which I believe is every Wednesday and Friday. Such a great time. I would definitely return. Fun from start to finish. read more

Came here for a work happy hour that my job hosted, it was super fun playing all the different games on the big screen while drinking and eating. It is located inside the Hard Rock Casino, so you know we gambled too! read more

If I could give a zero I would. We came for date night on a Tuesday to avoid the crowd. We had no idea what it was and saw they had games, so we decided to play for an hour in the "suite." The waitress, TATIANA, told us it was $60 an hour (never mentioned automatic gratuity). While we were there we had to flag the waitress down to order our food and to get more drinks. When our food arrived, some water would of been nice. We were staring down our waitress - hoping for some water with our food- while she complained to her manager about who was being put on the schedule for certain days. I heard her entire conversation with her manager. Anyway when our time was up she said we had to move to a regular table - play areas were completely empty but it was fine- I grabbed all my drinks and food and moved. We played some other games and wanted another drink but she would pass by and avoid eye contact and not ask if we were doing ok. When the bill game there was an "automatic" gratuity of $30... for 2 people... with crap service... I asked her about it and she snapped saying "automatic gratuity was the norm throughout Hardrock." I loudly said "is the auto gratuity the reason the service was so shitty? - I hope the manager heard that." I went to another bar in the hard rock and gratuity WAS NOT AUTOMATICALLY CHARGED. I use to be a bartender and server and I would HAVE NEVER treated customers like she did, she needs a reality check. Never going back. read more

Megan was amazing!!! I wish I could put 10 stars. Service was awesome we will definitely be back

Super fun experience. Our server was Megan and she was very nice. Definitely going back again.

What an exciting and active casino and location. Truly enjoyed playing and interacting with the staff. Very friendly and very informative and bringing new members they all received $20 slot play to start their journey to winning or losing. Food at the a buffet was such and adventurous treat and out waitress Kimberly was very attentive to our dining needs. Prime rib area was perfectly cooked and carved. read more

The food was mediocre. The shooting games were fun, but the other games were all out of wack. It needed to be recalibrated or something. My son was making every shot into the basketball hoop, but it kept saying "brick!" He didn't receive even one point. We tried the baseball and other sports, but they were all the same. It was showing we were way off the targets, and that was just not true. That made the whole experience lame. We went to enjoy the games, but when we realized they weren't even close to accurate, we were very disappointed. I think the golf was ok, but we waited until the end to try it. I wouldn't go back because it cost $120 to rent the booth, and it was worth about 50 cents. And, there are wayyyyyy better food options at The Hard Rock. read more

Waitress was awesome, food was ok. The people that delivered my food passed my plate (reuben sandwich and salad) around 2 different tables where 4 people touched the plates and breathed on it before it got to me. Seriously???? With the flu and COVID ramping up, they should have just taken it back and made me a new one. read more

The restaurant was loud and crowded as it was March madness, of course that was to be expected. The food was ok but service extremely slow. It took a long time to get our food and even longer to get our our check.despite asking the manager to get our . Then there was another wait for to go boxes.We were at the place for 90 minutes which is a long time for burgers & a salad read more

What a awesome location to hang out with friends or family. I came in on a Tuesday night to hang out as part of a event and I had a amazing time. We decided to stay a bit after the event and everything was great. The service was fantastic the entire time. The location is sporty upscale vibe and it was great to hang out grab a bite and enjoy playing or watching sports . I would definitely recommend. They also do reservations to set your spot on the side. I did try a few of their drinks and bites and everything was great. read more

Bob, has built and excellent team with the greatest customer service and etiquette. The delivery is superb and proven. I have sent many of my business partners are pleased with the delivery. Angel and all the female and male are phenomenal. Thanks, Richard Sniper J read more

PLA Sports Bar's business model of charging a 20% tip for the use of the games that your already paying $85/hr for is absurd. It's not the value of the tip, but rather the principal of paying an unearned tip. We happily tipped Natasha for her excellent service, but she never touched, or helped, with the games. And the games weren't working correctly, clearly b/c the systems aren't properly maintained. B/c of this, we won't be back and can't recommend this place, regardless of how much fun my family had. Remove the ridiculous business practice and we'll be back. The food is typical bar food, which didn't exceed or disappoint our expectations. read more

Took my cousin and her fiancé to walk around the hard rock . We had to wait until 9pm to watch the light show so we decided to have a drink while we waited . So happy we decided to try PLA . It was so good with delicious drinks . Our bartenders Daniel and Oscar are absolutely the Best !! They are so nice, friendly and helpful. And the drinks are so good ! We had the spicy margarita, strawberry margarita and the pineapple mojitos. Will definitely be back. read more

Happened by PLA on my way to the garage and decided to stop in. Great decor and layout and they have some great games. The manager Jeff showed me around the games and then walked me thru their food and drink menus. Had a cheeseburger that was cooked perfectly and came with my favorite style of fries. Service was quick. Great drinks, food and service and Tanya the bartender was fantastic. Definitely will return with my local friends and bring my work colleagues by when they are in town. read more

I love this bar! They have private booths with really fun virtual games like golf, football, soccer, baseball etc. You can reserve a booth and play while you enjoy their food and drinks. We had Dana taking care of us and she was amazing! Very helpful, fun and friendly. The food and drinks are also delicious and reasonably priced! Definitely recommend stopping by this bar if you are visiting the hard rock read more

Laila was amazing. The military discount was great, much appreciated! The manager David was superb! Thanks for a great night!

We always visit Pla on a trip to the hard rock! Servers and bartenders are so friendly and quick. Food is on point! The energy is always a hit with us! Can't wait to try the games on my next trip...more reviews to follow! read more

Decent spot. Food was fair. Service was good. $80 per hour for a simulation bay is a little (or a lot) excessive. Just sayin. read more

The machine is not very accurate for golf or dodgeball or football. It's a good concepts and it was comfortable to hold all of us but I wasn't impressed at all. I would prefer to go to Dave & Buster's where I have the gaming of the virtual scream as well as other games. read more

It was a good time, fun atmosphere, service was ok. One young lady helped us greatly on how to better use the gaming sim screen, which was great! read more

Just a place to play let off steam and have fun. Nothing real special to it . It's all in what you make it

Staff was welcoming food was pretty good and the games were fun!! I recommend trying it out

I came here with a group of 6 on a Monday night for a birthday, and we really did have lots of fun in our game room/pod. The food wasn't great, the drinks were sugary and overpriced, as expected, and my rosé was not great... but again, it's a sports bar in a hotel, but the games were so fun that we didn't mind. It's $60 for an hour in the game pod, so for $10/person it was something fun and different to do. There was plenty of space for us 6 plus more, and I'd say about half of the venue was full on this Monday. read more

PLA sports bar is a great concept. I had a good experience minus some hiccups we had. I rented the suite for an hour and during that, we needed a new ball for a game & asked our server for it but never received it. Then when we went to play golf we realized that there weren't even golf balls in our bin of equipment needed to play the games. When we asked for it, we needed to ask a different server because ours was nowhere to be found. The girl was extremely nice and was able to at least look into that but we ended up waiting an addition 10 minutes while we were trying to find someone for 5. They did add back 10 minutes to our time but the time isn't the issue. It's the inconvenience of starting a game and waiting there for a long period of time. The service was not the best. So to receive the check and see automatic tip was unpleasant. I asked why there was tip already when we had only received water & didn't even receive help from her ??? When I asked one of the girls why it was already added, she said it was automatic. They asked if they should get the manager & someone from my group responded yes. When I looked at the girls in the front, they had a nasty face as if me questioning the tip was wrong & judging me for doing so. I ended up just signing & left but honestly, the middle to the end of my experience was not well. I truly love tipping my servers but when they actually do something and assist me. I had a good time, great concept, but those are my concerns. read more

Always a pleasure when seeing Michelle!! Friendly banter will always get my food to taste better!! Best prices at the Hard Rock. Great location of you are on your way in or out from the lucky street entrance! Plus a good spot to people watch! read more

What a great place to hang out with friends and family! It's a bar and Food and Virtual Games! I took my older kids and we all had a blast. Had a private space with mini tables, sofa, chairs. Server brings your foods and drinks. TVs for watching your sports. But Wait!!!!!!! You have a ginormous screen with like 20 game options from hockey, golf, football and zombie dodge ball. Super fun time. Something unique to keep your guest entertain. Food was good. Normal bar food items. Music was good and loud. Can't wait to go back again. It is located in the Hard Rock hotel Casino indoor shopping area . read more

Play Sporting Lounge - New family favorite!! - Sports Bars Near Me - Hollywood, Florida

The beer is always cold. However, I finally figured out their game tonight. Three different concerts over the course of about 6 to 8 months. I always start here. I always try to order off of the happy hour Shareables/appetizer menu. Each time they've been "out of" whatever I order. And each time, the bartender acts surprised, That's the game. They advertise it but it's never available. I know they're used to tourist suckers, but I'm a local, so I come more than once and notice these things. I just wanted something to nosh on. I wasn't looking for a full meal to have a full belly during a concert. Suckers beware. There's games being PLAyed here. Unfortunately, your choices are limited in this giant casino tourist trap. read more

Go look for Angel, his hospitality and professionalism are truly incredible. He helped me with all my questions and the services the sports bar has to offer. Was very knowledgeable about all the drinks and food. Saw him multitask and was impressed. He makes the vibe great. The games are awesome lots to choose from, the food is great and the drinks are exquisite. This is the new spot for my friends and I, highly recommend it!! read more

My husband ordered a burger without cheese. The server brought one over with cheese. We sent it back to the kitchen but a guy came back with the same wrong burger saying it would take another 30 minutes to make one without cheese? If you made a mistake ain't you go fix it right the way? Instead, he came over and tried to force us to have their wrong order. I guess this is the way they run business. Someone else would accept it. read more

This team really helped to make our corporate event of about 65 people be a success! The event planner, Dionne, was so helpful with her suggestions during the planning process. On the night of the event, the managers and servers were very attentive at all the right times when something needed refreshed. Everyone totally loved the event rooms...the staff helped us set up a "shortest to the pin" contest which added another element of excitement when I gave away a couple souvenirs from the shops right down the way from the PLA. Food was great. We had nothing left except 5 key lime pie tarts! Everything else was gone! So that tells you something about how good the food is too!!! GREAT JOB!!! read more

My husband and I had a great time at the PLA Bar. We reserved a Standard Classic Suite and had an hour and some change of fun. Our server Nicki was also the sweetest. The food on the other hand was average. Either way I have already started recommending this spot to all my good friends! read more

Found this place on the hard rock website. Thought it was going to be awesome because my boyfriend and I LOVE games and sports. It is $80 for an hour of play, but we were going to experience it. Well, it wasn't worth it!! The screens rarely recognize the balls you throw or kick. We spent more time talking to each other about how the screen isn't recognizing the balls than anything else. The food is a basic menu and wasn't awful but wasn't great. The waitress was really nice and felt bad about the screens not working and even tried to talk to someone for us, but nothing was reset or fixed. We didn't even get an extra couple of minutes. Later, we went back to just drink at the bar and the lady at the front wouldn't let us back in unless we bought more food!! I understand having people buy food while drinking but we had just been there and spent $200! It's not worth it. Never again. read more
