    We’ve been attending the breakfast with Santa for years. I was extremely disappointed in the food. The food was lukewarm. The hotdog buns were stale, the donuts were hard, chicken and Mac and cheese were dry. Santa was amazing as always, the balloon artist was a nice touch this year. It’s a very expensive event for bad food.

    Thanks for the review and chef has adjusted menu items and put smaller amounts out to keep it warmer. KF

    We have done the Santa experience at HardRock for a few years now. It’s always expensive, but worth the expense. I can’t say the same for today. We liked the buffet being in the main room, but there wasn’t as many options for food as there normally has been. There wasn’t even syrup for the French toast sticks and no salt or pepper on the tables. The movies in the past have been great, this year we didn’t even know the movies which makes it hard to enjoy. Last year there was a Photo Booth area to take extra photos and we didn’t see that either. Santa and his elf were wonderful, once the elf got warmed up, but even the photos this year aren’t as Christmassy because the tree isn’t in it. We were used to having the words Hard Rock in our photos and have gotten past that but this year it’s really just a photo of the kids with Santa in front of the Hard Rock sign. With three kids and two adults it’s going to be really difficult to justify coming back for our sixth year next year.

    Went for their Santa brunch. The buffet style breakfast food (scrambled eggs, French toast sticks, cubed potatoes, sausage and bacon). Everything was cold except the sausage and bacon. The Santa and his helper elf saved the day, they were fantastic with the kids.

    Highly recommend their Breakfast with Santa. You get so much more than just seeing Santa. A gift from Santa. Lots of table activities. Also they take info prior to arrival so Santa is well versed in what tour little one would like for Christmas!!
