TGI Fridays

Ummmm… apparently Jack Daniels must own Friday’s or something? I’m kidding, just seems like everything is affiliated with JD, even the desserts! We got here around 9:00 pm, and I ordered a finely crafted Bud Light, chilled to the right temp, and the lady had a water with lemon, on the rocks. We just ordered a few tapas to share, as we weren’t looking to indulge in any Jack Daniels chicken, pork, or beef entrees. Our waitress was delightful, and polite. We had their nacho thingy, mozzarella sticks, and their staple, chicken fingers w/​honey mustard. The food tasted good, and I felt overindulged upon completion. (grossly full). Our waitress was great, thanks Karyn!

Me and a couple friends went their a few weeks ago on a Friday night around 730 and say at the bar and the service blew, won’t be going back.

Please don’t waste your time!!! Worse service ever. We waited 15 minutes for our so called waiter to return after being told that he would be right with us. No excuse!!! The place was not even packed!!!
We walked out!!! Never will I return to this dump again!!!

This restaurant has really gone down. The customer service isn’t there, the quality isn’t there, and they shrunk everything. My family and I went here for my mothers birthday yesterday and it was a huge disappointment. I ordered a sirloin steak dinner cooked medium. When I cut into it, it was literally rare. I asked the waitress if she could bring it back and have it cooked a little more. When I got my plate back and cut into the steak again, it was well done and really tough. Apparently, their chefs don’t know how to cook a steak. Oh and I finally got to eat my dinner after everyone else was done with theirs.

Came for Fathers Day since they sent me an email coupon for BOGO entrée. This restaurant is Huge and it hasent been filled to capacity in probably close to 10 years that I can remember, Normally there is No wait here. Came about 6:30 on Sunday Father’s Day evening. We had to wait 15 minutes not because there were NO tables– but they didn’t have enough Servers working to seat those empty tables! Uh– HELLO– its FATHER’S DAY– did you NOT think it would be Busy??? Ordered Steak with Lobster. Ordered Medium Well– which should be slightly Pink. The steak came out Well-​Done! No Pink at all. And chewy! The Lobster was these little shrimp-​size butes on top. I didn’t send it back because I was tired and hungry and didn’t feel like waiting. Also– Fridays– Back Off on the Pepper on your Steak! WTF? And your Mozzerella Sticks STILL suck compared to the «Old» version. My Daughter ordered them as a meal. She had a couple left over. Normally when Mozzarella sticks get cold, the cheese becomes harder and chewy. That is what normal Mozarella Cheese does. This concoction was still «mushy» 30 minutes after it came out. Fridays calls them Mozzarella– but there is some sort of other cheeses or whatever blended in. It is NOT Normal– and it is GROSS! Fridays KILLED one of the BEST items on their Menu!!!

Don’t bother ordering a Caesar salad. It’s just a house salad with some kind of dressing. I have never seem tomato, carrot, cabbage, cucumber or yellow cheese in a Caesar salad. Oh, and I tried to take their survey to tell them, but I couldn’t because the receipt lacked a «12 or 20» character code. I’m done!

Been to this Fridays a few times. Come back usually out of respect for my husband who only like the ribs. While they advertise 2 for 1 drinks the selection is limited and the drinks are way weaker than most place. On the plus side u really never have a long wait because its a large location with good staff. Food never really is exceptional. Always slightly bland for my taste.

I usually meet some friends for lunch about 11:30 am once a month. The servers have always been very good. The food is basically good. The prices are OK. The place needs a little cleaning. It usually has a smell to it like old bicycle seats

So I took the family to Friday’s for the endless appetizer deal. My 11 year old has been asking to go for 3 past months, we finally caved. I thought it was great. Pot stickers, mozzarella sticks, potato skins, bone less wings, chicken nachos, flat breads. The bill said we saved over $ 70 bux based on the 12 per person deal. Maybe the service could have been a little faster but had great experience.

Open late on a Sunday night, five stars. Drinks and appetizers, three stars. Average four stars.
On a serious note, there was only one bartender serving everybody at the bar and everybody in the bar area. Service took a long time. Bartender was apologetic and very helpful when she got to us, that counts for a lot in my book.
I would definitely come back as a far to hang out in the area. As far as the food, there’s nothing I would come back for but would certainly order food if I was here drinking

Unlimited as asspetizers! It’s ridiculous!!! They are not good and they make you sit in the bar and then make you wait a half an hour before getting more. Stay home and make TV dinners and you will still be better off!!!

I just left Friday’s at Mission Bay in Boca. I do not recommend this restaurant. Prices are high, food is average, and the service is deplorable. My evening was ruined by a waitress who was rude, arrogant and condescending in order to make up for lack of knowledge and laziness.

For a while Friday’s as in a huge downslope, but after going there recently, I think they might be making a comeback in terms of chain restaurants. The food I had was very good, and the atmosphere seemed to be becoming more interesting (basically how the place was like 15 years ago). I went with my parents for an early dinner on a Monday evening. The place was empty and we were seated right away by the hostess. For an appetizer, we got the Loaded Potato Skins which taste-​wise were excellent, some of the best I’ve had in a while. Very crispy shell with a perfect amount of potato to cheese and everything else ratio. Where this dish failed was on the portion size, it was way too small for the amount you pay. For my main meal, I had the Jack Daniel’s Sirloin with Mashed Potatoes and Parmesan Steak Fries. Good portion size, but a bit too high for price. You can get the same dish made better at Outback Steakhouse for $ 4 less. The food quality was good though, which a cooked well steak and really delicious steak fries. Overall, I’d stick with the appetizers and more simple dishes, stay away from the burgers and more complex dishes like pastas.
The service here I really have to hit on, because it is not up to par. Our waitress was very nice and sweet, but she needed work as a server. She took a while to come over to our table and take out order, never came over to check on us, and all of our food (appetizers and entrees) came out at the same time. And bare in mind, the restaurant was almost completely empty. The place seems to have added junk back to the walls, which I really like because it gives the place flair, something I feel Friday’s has lost over the years. I haven’t been a fan of TGI Friday’s in quite a while, but I might give it a second chance after this most recent visit. If they want to win me back fully, they really need to re-​evaluate their prices and train their servers to check on their customers, two things not hard to do.

Great experience thanks to Tim the bartender. Late night visit and the front had been closed. He was handling a full bar with hockey playoffs while acting as a server. He did a great job managing everything, ensured full glasses of water and handled everything great.
Plus the food was better than in the past. The new motzerrella sticks are far better than the old ones, and the new boneless wings were fantastic. I would visit again.
Oh and free wifi!

Pros: Eventhough she had way to many tables at once, our waiter was very attentive. The pretzel sticks were good & I loved the dippin sauce was yummy.
Cons: Jack Daniels chicken sandwich not as good as it used to be & it took three tries to get a glass of sprite that wasnt just carbonated water. The restaurant has a musty smell & the bathroom was dirty & smelled disgusting.

Friday’s is always iffy. Set aside our very good server & this place is a dump. We were given a dirty table, had to change out three (!) sets of silverware, the floor was slippery nasty, and it smelled like a dirty restaurant. If what they allow the public to see is so filthy, I don’t even want to imagine the kitchen. I’ll never go to this (or any?) Friday’s again.

I used to go to Fridays when I was in high school regularly… it was always a fun place with consistently good food… well…now it stinks! We stopped going after three bad meals in a row… frozen food heated up… soggy and greasy potato skins… not good anymore and when I was in the bathroom there were 2 employees in uniform saying the «F» really loud and right in front of me… not going back ever…

Horrible horrible service! Even the management sucks and everyone who works here is miserable! If you want to be treated like dirt and waste a lot of your precious time and have people rolling their eyes at you, then eat here.

Great for happy hour but don’t expect quick service.

Service was slow, took forever to get our orders taken. Food was average… burger wasn’t cooked to my desire. Server took forever to bring salsa and chips.
Middle of the week wasn’t crowded. a bit concerned to see it on a busy night.
