Hard Rock Cafe Ponce is about to set the Aloft Hotel on fire with our signature style and rock and roll cuisine. Located in the heart of the south area of Puerto Rico, our cafe in the “pearl of the South” has enough room for you and over 350 of your best friends in over 12,500 square feet of party space. Boasting more than 300 years of history, the city of Ponce is known as “Ciudad Señorial” or the Majestic or Noble City. As a huge part of Ponce, we’re also close to the action, only 0.2 miles from University of Puerto Rico, 0.5 from Plaza del Caribe Mall, and 5 miles from Mercedita Airport. This historic city just got a culinary upgrade! Just one bite of our world-famous Legendary® Burger and you’ll see what fans of our classic cuisine have been clamoring for since we first began slinging burgers. If salad or mac and cheese is more your speed, we have you covered as well. No matter what you order, wash everything down with a few local beers or a hand-crafted cocktail or two.

The best restaurant in Ponce. Service was excellent and very friendly, both of our waiters treated us nicely and were very knowledgeable about the menu, the food was very good both the appetizers and main dishes, we had the house “bacalaitos” and the cod croquettes as appetizers both were flavorful and well made not too greasy es many other places, for main dish we had the stuffed filet mignon which was also very well cooked and very flavorful. We definitely will return to this restaurant in our next visit to Ponce
