I went to planet hollywood twice while in new york once for drinks on the first night and then another night for dinner. We didn't have any wait to be seated and our waiter was very polite and helpful. We did wait a while for him to fetch our beers but he seemed to have to serve half of the resturant alone. Decided on the captain crunch chicken for the appetiser and it was really nice but for the price you only get 3 strips for about $8. For the main course i had the chicken parmagaina it was a ok dish but nothing special. my sister had the vegatarin pasta dish and was happy with her choice. With drinks our bill came to around $70 which for 2 of us seemed very expensive for what we had. Planet Hollywood is the same which ever one you go to be it london, paris ,orlando the displays might be a little differant but the general atmosphere is the same. If i went to New York again I might call in for a beer but i wouldn't eat there again.
Planet Hollywood is in a prime location next to a huge ToysRus on Times Square. It is the resturant chain that is owned by Sylvestor Stallon arnold Swartznegger and Bruce Willis. Around the resturant there are big screen tv's showing music videos and clips for movies they are on repeat and are played about every hour which i'm guessing is there usual turn over time between customers. Also around the walls and hanging from the ceiling are clothes and memorabilla from the movies such as one of the Carousel horses from Mary Poppins. The toilets were clean and there was mouth wash and deodorant and perfume in there the first time we went but when we went back in the week there was non of that stuff so either it had been stolen or they only put it out when they are busy. Downstairs there is a merchandise shop selling t-shirts and sweatshirts and things like that. You have to go upstairs for the resturant and there is a bar above the resturant but I think that is mainly used at busy times and there is a cover charge for it too.
