    Friends is a tiny little eatery located just off the courtyard of the Galeria building. I might not have given it the chance it deserves if I hadn't worked within such close proximity and needed to start branching out from the Subway that is right next door. I initially thought the name was supposed to be some sort of play on the TV show, but I soon came to realize it had more to do with their mentality. After just a few visits, Ruben was already greeting me by name and trying to anticipate my order. I enjoy visiting with the staff on pretty much a weekly basis when I stop by for lunch. My guilty pleasure is the frito pie. Honestly, you can't go wrong with a frito pie and this one is no exception. It's pretty standard with fritos, chili, cheese, lettuce, tomato and onion. When I'm trying to be healthy I will get their large salad with either tuna or chicken salad. It comes with a large bed of spring mix, a hard boiled egg, carrot, cucumber, shredded cheese, dried cranberries and tomatoes. I always get the balsamic dressing (Newman's Own packet). I also enjoy their sandwiches - namely the egg salad which turns into a wonderful mess, but is always delicious. They also sometimes have a turkey sandwich special served on a green chile cheese bagel that is really good. Finally, when I am feeling sick or sniffly I get their green chile stew. Very tasty and always does the trick!

    Today I tried the special " Buffalo Chicken Wrap" and it was delicious. Spicy chicken breast, crisp fresh vegetables and ranch dressing wrapped in a flour tortilla. All the ingredients were very fresh and tasty. The service is fast and friendly as well. Always a great spot for lunch!

    If you work/live Downtown and you haven't eaten here, you're missing out! The men who own this place are awesome and that's reason enough to give them my business. They make simple but tasty sandwiches, and the portions are bountiful. Most of the time I can do with half a sandwich. Another favorite of mine is their frito pie, I like to add avocado to mine. The best part is that everything is very inexpensive, especially for the amount of food you get.

    It's a small place with friendly service and nice food! I came to the conventional center for a meeting and this place is just on the corner. I tried their breakfast burrito with sausages and the Italian sandwich for lunch. Both are freshly prepared and delicious!!! Great for the busy meeting attendees.

    The guys running this place are great - friendly and attentive. The menu is a bit limited but has all the staples and the prices are reasonable. I had an naked egg salad sandwich on sourdough. Why do people feel the need to detract from the yumminess of egg salad by adding lettuce, tomato and even more mayo? Just wondering. Anyway, the egg to mayo ratio was perfect and made a good sandwich. The place is small with very few seating options inside. There is seating available out in the courtyard but it is a little cold in the winter. Although Friend's is located next door to a Subway and a few doors down from another cafe, they were busy at lunchtime so keep that in mind. It is certainly worth visiting and it is always good to support local business.

About TGI Friday

The founder of the restaurant Alan Stillman lived in a New York-based neighbourhood full of a young crowd, especially girls from the airline and fashion industry. He started the first TGI Friday restaurant in New York in the hope of meeting single women as there weren't any such public place for young men and women to meet. He invested $5000 on his own and borrowed another $5000 from his mother to buy a bar named The Good Tavern and renamed the premise to Thank God It's Friday, inspired from an expression during his time at Bucknell University.
