| 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: 5 out of 5 starsI have eaten at T.G.I.F.s all over the U.S. and in Canada and have never gotten bad service or food. I'm addicted to the J.D. dishes and the wings are my fav. I was shocked when they closed the Oracle location and look forward to an opening of another in the Northwest part of town.
User Rating: 3 out of 5 starsEh...: What I liked about this place was it's atmosphere and how quick they seat you. What I didn't like was the food, it didn't impress me, and also sometimes the service is slow. Now, all I've gotten from them is their cobb salad, their broccoli cheese soup, jack daniel's chicken/steak/ribs/shrimp, and a couple of their non-alcoholic drinks, so that's all I can judge by. I don't recommend getting take-out from them as by the time you get it home, it's lukewarm and not as juicy (we live about 20 minutes away). I don't hate this place, but it isn't at the top of my list.
