TGI Friday’s

Our waiter Les was the best! Very friendly, upbeat and attentive. Food was great. The new Beef Stroganoff is delicious. Overall an A+++ visit

For a Friday night, it wasn’t busy at all.
But being from New York, I expect everywhere to be crowded on the weekend.
The hostess put on her fake customer service smile & brought us to our table.
Our waitress was really nice & attentive.
I ordered the Sizzling Chicken Fajitas.
It was ok. Seems like I got the rice that was at the bottom of the pot.
After we paid for everything, we were still there watching TV & catching up amongst ourselves for about an hour, hour & a half.
Since like I stated before it wasn’t busy, they didn’t bother us to leave or anything.

My first impression of this establishment was the hostess wasn’t too friendly. Event though she wasn’t busy, seemed like she didn’t want serve us. But on the other hand the friday’s staff that is responsible for opening the door for customer was friendly.
We were greeted by our server Aaron after we got seated and he was helpful and pleasant. Had the pick 3 sampler for appetizer and I had their smoked stacked burger. For the sampler we had the warm pretzels, loaded potato skins, boneless wings with garlic parmesan. The pretzel was extremely salty. The loaded potato skins were flavorful and tasty. Boneless wings were delicious and good. Kind of reminds me of the korean fried chicken flavor. The smoked stacked burger was big. Comes with 2 thin beef patties and some bacon. Just the right amount of BBQ sauce. It was a little too well done but still tasted pretty good.
Overall, the food was a little better than what I had in the past. Aaron was impressive. Made the dining experience more enjoyable. Made up for the bad impression left by the hostess.

i really can’t believe someone with maybe a degree or training to manage or run a establishment is doing so at this restaurant called tgif, yuck, yuck, and more yuck, where do i start, my buffalo wings were soggy like they reheated it in the microwave from yesterday, my drinking glass had food particles on it in all the colors of the rainbow, no plastic utensils offered me a dirty glass of hot water, i think they recycle the garnishings on the plates also because my celery looked and felt like it had a long day, i mean 10 hour shift of moving from plate to plate, and what is that god awful smell by the kitchen, bathroom is similar to one in the middle of no where gas station, im almost sure i rather eat off the floor of a kennel then eat at this tgi friday’s, never again!!!

The entries and the drinks were excellent but the service was way too fast, and we got the appetizer after we got the entries.

It’s been a long time since I’ve gone to a TGIF’s, and I am happy to say their menu is no longer a sacrificial offering to the god of deep fried foods. My cheeseburger was available with a gluten free bun as well, which I really appreciate. It was cooked perfectly and had a nice char grilled flavor. Service was fairly prompt and friendly. I can’t say too much about the décor. It seems one step above the BWW «hose-it-off-when-you’re-done» interior, but I guess it was fairly comfortable. There wasn’t anything here that would make me rush back, but it certainly offered a decent burger in a convenient location.

I went to Happy Hour yesterday. The Spinach artichoke dip used to be really good but now it is so so. The chicken quesadillaa were really tasty. I also had sizzling garlic cheese chicken. It was overpriced and some chicken was overcooked. It tasted nothing like garlic but it wasn’t horrible. I won’t pay $ 16 for that again. Overall the atmosphere was cool. It was pretty crowded. I’ll definitely go back!

Service was just okay, I enjoyed my glass of Roscato immensely, the mozzarella sticks and my pecan crusted salad were great; however, today I offer 2 complaints: the first complaint is minor. We ordered the fried green bean appetizer, let’s just say «they were they worst!» They tasted as if they were freezer burned, I say this was minor because we were able to send it back & get mozzarella sticks as a replacement. My second & major complaint was «the bathroom». The bathroom looked as though it hadn’t been cleaned all day; the garbage was piled high, tissue on the floor, it was just a hot mess. For the food I give last nights experience a 3, for the bathroom lack of cleanliness I give them a 1 (at least they had running water). A clean bathroom is just as important as a clean dining area, it’s s part of the overall customers’ dining experience. Better luck next time. «Friday’s I’ll be watching you!!!
Initial Review

My refrigerator is on the blink, so although I love to eat out, now I’m forced to do so. I don’t know if I can be fair in my critique because my son works here, but I’ll try. I ordered the Parmesan Garlic Wings and season fries. The wings were good but they are not as good as the ones at Hooters, but their still good. The fries were just mediocre, my favorite thing was my glass of Moscato, I can’t believe my glass is empty already. Oh well let me finish my food, so I can go home & get some zzzz. Bön Appetite & Good Night!

One of the worst restaurant experiences I’ve ever had! Poor customer service skills. not to mention their poor people skills as well. I have placed my order 10 minutes after I had arrived only to find out that I would be waiting an hour and 20 minutes extra for my order to never arrive then once I was approached by the waitress she had told me that our order was delayed and that we shouldn’t have been waiting so long she gave us free desserts in order to compensate for the wasted time there. There was a party of two that sat behind us and they made homophobic comments. Once they saw us, they immediately asked for takeout. We were minding our own business and didn’t deserve to be degraded in such a manor. Everyone else seemed to receive there food on time except us. We feel like it was set up and it was all apart of a hidden agenda. They had more than enough time to make our food. A different party arrived after us and the waitress told them that the kitchen was closing in 45 minutes. I’m pretty certain that they would have just never brought our food out altogether and just waited for us to leave. This was very unfortunate and it just goes to show that ignorance has yet to leave the small minds of people.

I love TGI Fridays but this one sucks. I live really close to here and I rather take a 20 min drive some where else. The service sucks. Bad. And everything we order takes forever to come out. I don’t like coming here at all. And I also heard they don’t even give you real liquor when you order drinks. Idk about this place. The food is really good but after waiting 30+ min I’m not even hungry anymore.

This was man the first TGI Fridays that’s served my food while HOT. Everything g was perfect including the drink (Zombie) that’s the waiter, John suggested. I’ll come back.

So you mean to tell me a FRIDAY’s can’t handle a party of ten on a Sunday night? Being that it was happy hour all day Sunday our group kept it simple. We all ordered appetizers and drinks off the happy hour menu. From the beginning our waitress seemed frazzled.
Our order took 25 minutes to come out and by the time it came out our food was cold. Also one of our friends order NEVER came out. There was something wrong with every single order and when we let her know she always had an excuse and nothing was done to fix it. We didn’t make a big deal we just asked her to remove the items that never came out from our check. Wouldn’t you know when the check came out, all the items that were never brought out to us were still on there. Horrible Service

Not the worst Fridays but it lacks consistency„ half the times the food is awesome and service is really good, and the other half the food is blah and service is slow… im thinking the problem is the management… too often ive seen the managers horsing around with the staff… they need to supervise instead of trying to be their friends.

Generally I love Friday’s but apparently Saturday is not the day to go. Out with friends we all ordered at the same time but I got my order dead last. Now I can’t blame the waitress she’s cool. But the fact that it took over and half hour for some bread to come out was not cool. I will not frequent this Fridays again. For the record, the manager comped my meal but he or she should have come out and said this. Fridays is a no days for me

Ok, so stopped in here on the way back from the city for something to eat. Once my guest and I walked in, we were seated right away. Our waiter also attended to us immediately. Ordered the Very Strawberry mixed drink. Didn’t taste exactly like I imagined. Tasted sorta like ice cream. Don’t think I’ll ever order that again. Got appetizers and ordered the potstickers which were sorta burnt and tasted sorta strange. I’ve had them before at other Friday’s, but won’t order them again if I come back to this location. My guest ordered the buffalo chicken wings and they tasted great. For the main course, I ordered the sizzling chicken and shrimp and my guest ordered the sirloin steak and veggies. They forgot my shrimp so they brought that out later. Overall my food was fresh and hot. My guest enjoyed his steak and was cooked to order. Overall, it was a good experience. I would comeback again…

The food is not good. I just ate it because I was hungry. The salad was super dry. The décor is nice. The utensils still had food in it. The waitress was nice. But the water was delicious!

The people who work there are nice, but the food isn’t! I ordered 2 lobster, the food took 45 mins to get to the table AND the lobsters were raw.

TGI Fridays is an upgrade of diner food. I am a sucker for wings so there’s no way I can give this people bad reviews.
Yes there appetizers are frozen, then deep fried and brought to your table, but they taste sooooo good.
The pros are: you come during happy hour and appetizers are 50% off, they have low calorie options and there cocktails give you the sting you need :)
The cons: the waiters here need a little more training. Every time I come here they tend to bring the plates of my party at different times, so your friend might start eating before you! They should bring everything together or at least give you an expectation of the food time specially on a Saturday night.

Food is just ok
Drinks not good
Is not a clean Restaurant …
Service is just ok …

This review is based upon my experience I had last night while dining here, now keep in mind I’ve been here a bunch of times & even went to a TGIF in Union prior in the day but a friend of mine was hungry so I decided to join for drinks. Came in noticed it was happy hour, was only 3 of us so instead of getting a booth we opted for the bar area. As soon as we sat down it seemed the barmaid was annoyed that she had to wait on us.
I got the happy hour Ultimate Margarita, a friend proceeded to get the Sangria & when she asked if it was included with happy hour the barmaid got an attitude «No, do you still want it»? My friend didn’t want to appear cheap so she said yeah. After ordering our drinks, the food took an additional 20-​minutes for what IDK…
After sitting there for about a good 15 minutes into our meals/​drinks she just left us and proceeded to pretend to clean the bar area and make drinks for someone else so another waitress had to attend to us. Just completely rude especially for a Sunday night, imagine if the place was packed & she actually had to work SMH
Overall the place is decent especially the bar area with all of the TV’s but you guys should train your employees to leave their attitudes & personal problems in the parking lot. NO ONE WANTS TO DEAL WITH IT!
