“What i got was a horrible meal at $20 per burger.”
“Food was mediocre, upkeep of the place was not there seemed a bit run down, the staff that served us was great and that was the best part of going ther.”
Every night is the weekend at this bistro, where families enjoy American kitsch and cuisine alongside partying singles..
In Short
The much-copied look of hardwood floors, decorative stained glass, checked tablecloths, brass rails and walls filled with knickknacks has been a staple at this restaurant franchise. Originally a hit for its frisky bar scene, Friday's is now known just as much for its kid-friendly entrees. The menu alternates between typical American fare (salads, potato skins, Angus burgers and grilled chicken) and modestly international cuisine like fajitas, wraps and pot stickers.
HORRIBLE. This place was horrible. I expected nothing less than a typical fridays and nothing more. What i got was a horrible meal at $20 per burger. I thought the waiter forgot about us but he reassured us that he hadn't forgotten us, just our drinks and forgot to put in our order. I'd rather starve then pay $60 for 2 burnt (asked for medium) hamburders and 2 cokes. SKIP THIS PLACE NO MATTER WHAT.
Bad,bad, bad!. We ate at TGI's on 5th for two reasons. One to experience an American TGI's (having heard they were so much better than the UK ones) and Two because we had such a bad experience on our first night at Mchales. It was a Monday so the place was quiet even so we waited over 5 minutes to be seated. The service got worse through the evening with our main courses arriving before we had finished our starters. The food was distinctly average and the atmosphere dull. The decor was in serious need of an upgrade and the staff needed a serious dose of motivation and enthusiasm (Y'know to be more like the TGI on the ads!) Eat better for less elsewhere.
disappointing place...not reccomended.
Overall a run down TGIF's esp for a fifth ave location. Went coz I got a mailer about getting "Goldpoints" the kind that yu get at food emporium. Food was mediocre, upkeep of the place was not there seemed a bit run down, the staff that served us was great and that was the best part of going ther...Paid a bill of $130+ and did not even get the goldpoints....
definately do not reccomend this place.
