Must Try: Revamped Menu at Hard Rock Cafe

Blog· Food and Drinks

Hard Rock Cafe DallasHard Rock Cafe has always been a restaurant that I go to when I’m out of town. The last time I was in Orlando and San Antonio, we stopped at a Hard Rock Cafe. The problem is that I didn’t visit the one in Dallas often, why is it that I only visit other Hard Rock Cafes when I leave town? I decided to change that mentality and give the one in Dallas a shot. They recently rolled out a new redesigned menu that took more than 14 months of culinary development so I was exciting to see and taste the changes.

 As you already know, it’s hotter than hell outside so I was wanting a drink that would help me cool down. Our waitress was extremely helpful and suggested that we try one of their pressed drinks. The base is a watermelon puree with lemonade, fresh lemons and strawberries with added dragonberry rum and Cointreau. The coolest part about this drink? It’s served in a French coffee press which keeps all of the fruit from getting into your drink but really gives the rum a great deal of flavor.

This is a great drink to sip on throughout the night.  I was starving when I got there so we ordered the Classic Rock Buffalo Wings to start. These jumbo wings are coated with their signature smoked dry rub, slow roasted and served with blue cheese, carrot and celery sticks. The Classic Rock wings were full of flavor and had the perfect amount of spice.

Since I’m obsessed with Mexican Food and usually go with that since it’s what I love, I chose the Salmon instead. My 8 oz filet was grilled wrapped in cedar paper and drizzled with sweet and spicy barbecue sauce, served with mashed potatoes and broccoli.

He chose the barbecue brisket and chicken. His plate was packed full with food and it was all delicious. The barbecue brisket literally fell apart with the touch of a fork. There was plenty left over for lunch the next day.

Their twisted mac n’ cheese was a great addition to both of our meals. I wish it was a bit more cheesy but was still delicious. It was more than plenty for two people to share.

I told myself I would only have “one bite” and “just a little taste.” That went out the window very quickly after the dessert was delivered. Before I realized it, we had eaten the whole slice of  cheesecake and I don’t regret it one bit.

    The new menu looks great! The last time that my family enjoyed the Hard Rock Cafe we were visiting Miami! The team at Hard Rock is always amazing and their customer service is impeccable! As a millennial family, we are hooked on 90s music and this was definitely up our alley!

    The photos were amazing and the mashed potatoes made me want to drive to the Hard Rock Cafe RIGHT NOW! 🙂 Thanks for such a great post!

    Believe it or not, I have NEVER been to any Hard Rock Cafe! But that French Press drink is making me want to go ASAP. I’m serious.

I know this year has dragged on and on for many pe I know this year has dragged on and on for many people but it has flown by to me. I'm 100% sure it has something to do with welcoming Myles into this world during the height of a pandemic and keeping a toddler alive at the same time.  I can't wait for Christmas morning to make memories with my little family (even though Christmas shopping isn't complete and I haven't even thought about wrapping presents). It will all fall in to place, it always does. We didn't attend our favorite Christmas events this year or get pictures with Santa so this random Santa picture will do and I'm 100% happy with it.  If this year has taught you anything,  let it be finding the joy in the little things ❤
The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Althoug The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Although things might be a bit different this season, we're still enjoying some of our favorite foods and traditions. This year we're incorporating ordering family meal kits from @chuysrestaurant for not only my family but extended family that we might not be able to hang with this holiday.  It's a simple way to spread the joy with loved ones, eat delicious food and not forget the reason for the season.  #ad #nachoaverageholiday
Family pictures are always so much fun.... this ye Family pictures are always so much fun.... this year we got to attempt it twice thanks to sweet Bryce.  Thankfully the second time around he cooperated. As painful as they may be,  I'm so glad we get these done every year. I love looking back at them and see how much we've all changed and how much the kids have grown!
Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We got our family pictures back and they look great other than the fact that Bryce decided not to participate. We got one shot with my entire family and Bryce is off to the side playing in poison ivy. 🤦‍♀️
