This place coins itself as everything American. I've been to similarly themed places before, and…read morethey usually don't measure up. This place, though, does a pretty decent job. And the server spoke great English. When we first sat down, I ordered a beer. To compliment the experience, you'd think that they would have some American beer available. Nope...not a single one. Not a big deal I guess. They had a limited selection of other beers. We ordered tacos and chicken fingers. They were both pretty good. If we were hungry, we could totally come in here to do a tapas experience out of all the finger foods. One weird thing, though. The honey mustard was actually just yellow mustard.

Love the décor. Because I love these types of diners in america. You know what I mean... the vinyl…read morebooths, long eating bar with stools. The interior is very authentic. Now the following criticisms are made because I am an American and a diner enthusiast. Please don't take my criticism as a reason not to try this place out. I'm Very picky with my diners. We ordered a few nibles: nachos & onion rings. The portions were large. The nachos were made from the cheese whiz type of cheese which I wasn't a fan of. My boyfriend suffered heartburn for a few hours after. he he. The onion rings were under cooked. This is typical for Spain. They deep fry onion rings and french fries for 3 seconds and serve it greasy and soggy. I was hoping since it was an american diner that it would have been nice to cook it like an american. I saw a few burgers whizzing by. Which looked yum! I would be curious if the burgers were american style (spicy) or Spanish style (sweet). We had a few glasses of wine which was very affordable. Sorry Americans, no reuben sandwich on the menu. Boo! Don't let my 3 stars deter you. I'll definetly come back cause I like the atmosphere. Just won't have nachos.

If you want the freshest seafood you ever ate, this is the place! Don't miss it!…read more You have to eat standing at the counter, not the best situation, but so good! Closed on Mondays and Sundays. The bar is located near one of the entrances of the Market. My husband and I really enjoyed our little lunch of Razor Clams in delicious Olive oil, garlic and parsley. The enormous French Oyster were the freshest we ever ate! The calamaritos ( baby squid) were fried to perfection. One more thing a delicacy that we tasted for the first time; Ortiguillas ( Anemones) fried, exploding in your mouth with a taste of Mediterranean. The waiters are very friendly and the place is VERY crowded! They serve 1/2 portions and some items, like the oysters are sold by the unit. Enjoy this unique experience if you can.

Hard Rock Cafe Malaga has been open just 2 weeks as of the writing of this review. It has a great…read morelocation in the port. There is a major parking garage 20 yards away, so it is easy to visit the cafe either as a cruise ship visitor or by car. In every aspect, it is a typical Hard Rock with the same menu items. They have a lot of employees. It appears perhaps a little chaotic. One of the big bosses was visiting and employees had to stop what they had been doing and clean and polish areas (bar) and straighten chairs just perfectly. Service was fast and efficient. They are not yet a part of the Hard Rock system electronically yet, so if you are a HRC Rewards member, you will not get credit for this visit (as of this writing). The appetizers were good. They didn't seem of know how to make guacamole as there were just huge chunks of avocado in a small container. I like avocado, so fine with me, but maybe not everyone. The Rock Shop is well stocked and the employees working there are super helpful and friendly. Everyone had excellent English language, and I was appreciative of this, since I don't speak Spanish (& never expect people to speak English in Spain). This will be a great location to hang in summer with the abundant outdoor seating!

Quality/Quantity - If you are following, you know I grew up with his brand and used to collect…read moretheir wares as I travel the world. But not anymore. Well, I still visit and check it out, but I do not collect any more. This is similar to my friends that collect Starbucks wares (from me) as I travel the world. Still brings back good memories of my past. The food is okay; I do not have high expectations. Happy hour is still good. But the merchandise has gotten SO expensive... Ambiance - Smaller location. Indoor or outdoor seating. Bar seating. Clean restrooms. Service - Hit and miss. Too slow to have this low level of service. Took a while before someone finally came up to greet us. Bar service also, especially since there were almost no customers. In their defense, I was here during the very slow time, between lunch and happy hour. Price - Tourist prices. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success since 1971 with your 165+ restaurants, 24+ hotels, and 11 casinos (2024).
