MIAMI \u2014 A longtime Miami restaurant is preparing to close its doors.<\/p>\n

The Hard Rock Cafe at Bayside Marketplace will permanently close on Aug. 19, according to multiple reports and a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification (WARN) notice filed with the state<\/a> on Saturday. <\/p>\n

According to the notice, the closure will result in 117 employees losing their jobs, including servers, cooks, bartenders, bussers and managers.<\/p>\n

The restaurant, located at 401 Biscayne Blvd., first opened in September 1993 and has operated for more than three decades at the popular waterfront shopping and entertainment destination in downtown Miami.<\/p>\n

According to the South Florida Business Journal<\/a>, a Hard Rock Cafe spokesperson said the restaurant\u2019s lease is set to expire this year, and the decision was made not to renew it.<\/p>\n

Sky 10 flew over the restaurant Wednesday, showing the iconic location as it prepares to shut down.<\/p>\n

The Miami Herald reported<\/a> that the Hard Rock Cafe at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Hollywood will remain open.<\/p>\n

The Bayside location was one of the brand\u2019s most recognizable South Florida restaurants after opening during the early 1990s as Hard Rock expanded beyond its original London cafe, which debuted in 1971.<\/p>\n
