 Hard Rock International (HRI), the operating company, released a statement indicating they are going to expand their locations across the US over the next five years but did not say exactly why this location is closing.

HRI said they would be open to having another restaurant in Seattle if the right location could be found.

WARN alerts are a newer notification from Employment Security, a law passed by the legislature that went into effect in 2023 requires business of a certain size and up notify the state of any pending layoffs or job losses in WA state.
