Hard Rock Cafe Saigon

Hard Rock Cafe Saigon is the first ever Hard Rock Cafe to open its door in Vietnam. The Hard Rock Cafe Saigon can be found at Kumho Asiana Plaza which is a new upscale complex for shopping and entertainment. Hard Rock Cafe Ho Chi Minh City is just minutes from a few of Saigon attractions like the Saigon Post Office, Notre Dame Cathedral and the Reunification Palace.

Within this Saigon Hard Rock Cafe, you’ll find seating for more than 200, a vibrant bar and a live music area that is elevated so everyone gets a piece of the action. Needless to say, memorabilia from Hard Rock’s iconic collection adorns the walls of Hard Rock Cafe Ho Chi Minh City and they include items from many of the world’s most beloved and recognizable musicians like John Lennon and Bruce Springsteen. But what I love best are the bloody friendly staffs. You get so much vide from them that is very rare in a Saigon restaurant. And when you are done with their world famous menu, check out the ‘Rock Shop’ featuring Hard Rock’s rock n’ roll inspired merchandise including limited-edition pins and t-shirts.

 

Many guitars on the walls of the Hard Rock Cafe Saigon. The super short guitar (model’s name) in the picture below is owned by a Japanese band call The Underneath who did a US tour in 2008 sponsored by the Hard Rock Cafe.

One of my favorite parts of the Hard Rock Cafe Saigon is the stairway down to the restaurant. The long walkway down to the basement gives one a feeling of entering into a different part of the world.

The soul of the Hard Rock Cafe Saigon- the staffs!
I don’t dine a lot at high end restaurant or at least in one that cost about US$12 for a burger like the Hard Rock Cafe Saigon. But with the little experience I have, I must comment that the staffs here are the best you’ll find in a Saigon restaurant. You probably can’t get any of these vibes and friendliness anywhere else.
