| 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. |

User Rating: 2 out of 5 starstypical chain restaurant, same stuff you can get at any other Friday's chain. But the service is very poor.
User Rating: 1 out of 5 starsthis place is a reck: I went there with my parents & my dad ordered a steak medium. the thing came out RAW. when he returned it, the next one was the same steak BURNT. when he complained, they told him they'd give him a new meal free of charge, they charged him full price for it & the old one!!!! that's not only bad service, but VERY rude!
not to mention some of their decorations are loose on the walls, & i've heard tell (from someone who once worked there) that they have cockroaches.
i'll NEVER eat there again!

The music is too loud and not for dining. Food is usually good, and so is service.
You must eat a lot. Everyoneâs steaks are cooked different. There is detailed description on the steak page of what color your steak should be depending on the temp. Problem is not everyone that eats out knows what their talking about. Of course you know when you donât like something, but maybe he had it medium elsewhere and they cooked it the way he liked and the medium at Fridays was different. I have never heard anyone say too much negatives about T.G.I.F but if you stop eating there, truth is they wont notice your gone. Itâs like one the top restaurant all over the US, they have enough money without you. Just being honest.
