Planet Hollywood

by magicloop2009 at Citysearch

It makes you feel like you are really in Hollywood. Very popular old and new music videos, a gift shop, great foods. Sometimes celebrities come in there, but eat in a private room so they don't be bothered. When I was there last, Nick Lachey and JEssica Simpson (just newlyweds) came to dine a candle light dinner. There are photos all over the place on the walls and everything of the most popular and famous hollywood stars......... A taste of Hollywood here in NYC. It reminds me of a backwards version of hard rock cafe. This place can put you in another world, though it is pricey. They sell posters of movie stars, rock stars, and singers. They used to have boy bands posters back in the early 2000's, but removed some of the pop videos and put on more alternative stuff since late 2003. They used to have stuff of Britney Spears and Backstreet Boys/NSYNC half a decade ago, but nowadays they have stuff of Hannah Montana and the Jonas Bros.

• Pros: Celebrities walk in and eat there
• Cons: Prices, slow service, crowds

I ate here with my mom last year and it was very nice. It was at lunch time during the week so they were slow. They sat us right away and the wait staff was attentive. The food was to die for but was ok. I would definetly go back.

• Pros: Seatied Quickly, Nice wait staff, food was fast
• Cons: Music was so loud you couldn't have a conversation
