I have always heard that the food sucks. So I've never eaten at one. I've been to the gift shop at the one in DC. During a high school summer school field trip a group of us ditched the Smithsonian. It was my idea too! I was like "Hey if we can find where Lincoln got shot, the Hard Rock is right across the street!"
I've been to the HR Casino. Can you say itty bitty casino. :eek" Give me the MGM anyday.
I've never been to the TWO that I live 20 minutes from. San Diego and La Jolla.
