About:T.G.I. Friday's, the first American casual dining chain, is a dining experience that has become the favorite pastime of millions since 1965. The first T.G.I. Friday's was located at First Avenue and 63rd Street in New York City and featured red and white stripes, a blue exterior and its name -- T.G.I. Friday's. Inside were wooden floors, Tiffany lamps, bentwood chairs and striped tablecloths. The bar area, with its brass rails and stained glass, contributed to the ambiance. For T.G.I. Friday's interior decor, a full time antique "picker" traveled extensively to auctions and flea markets. Memorabilia had to be authentic and, if possible, unique to the area where the new restaurant would be located. In a Nashville warehouse, this "clutter" was restored before being loaded on a truck bound for the next T.G.I. Friday's opening. The New York T.G.I. Friday's enjoyed an immediate and spectacular success. First year revenues totaled $1 million. This restaurant on Manhattan's Upper East Side had become THE meeting place for single adults. In fact, according to Newsweek and The Saturday Evening Post, the opening of T.G.I. Friday's heralded the dawn of the singles age. By 1972, the restaurant as we know it today was taking everyone by storm. By 1975, there were ten T.G.I. Friday's restaurants in eight states. As of June 30 there are 609 in 52 countries! As the guests have changed, so has Friday's. The company has grown and the guests have matured. Now many of them bring their children with them when they dine at T.G.I Friday's and, T.G.I. Friday's still offers an unsurpassed menu selection of food prepared to perfection, served in a lively, engaging atmosphere.

    Had food delivered to my hotel room just about every night I was here (1 week). Food was always great, timing was great except for the last night, when it showed up 30 min late... NO CHARGE! I will be back...

    Great food and drinks. Friendly waitstaff, but they charged us twice for an item we got one of and the waitress knew it, but forgot to recheck bill stating "I asked the manager to take that off, I guess he didn't" whatever happened to ownership - she should have rechecked the bill before giving it to us.

    Decent food, except for the deep-fried bread sticks and the Peanut Butter cup desert which was basically a shot glass of peanut butter. The staff was terrible. Our waiter had no personality and would ignore our table for long intervals. At points, we had to forcibly put our finished plates in his hands just so we could have our table cleared. It seemed we had seven different people working our table and not one of them knew what they were doing.
