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.

    For some reason, this restaurant never seems to be busy, even when parking lot neighbors Red Robin, Olive Garden and Famous Dave's are busting out the doors. It is consistent if not exciting. They do have a very wide selection, so it is easy for a group with different tastes to all find something to eat. Prices are reasonable for a chain-type restaurant. It is a bit dim even in the daytime, so ask to sit next to a window if you want to be able to easily read your menu.

    Would love to go back soon: David and I traveled up with John to see Dr. Nutter for our monthly visit. I decided to eat here instead of going to a fast food restaraunt, besides, we don't have one of these down in Olympia. I was surprised. The hostess opened the door for us coming in AND going out. They made sure we had everything we needed, and to us, it went along with the Outback's food...it was great! The prices are higher than the average restaraunt, like the outback restaraunt, but the food is worth it.
