Diabetics at TGI Friday

If you're a diabetic, then you must be extra careful while dining at TGI Friday. Try the salad menu at TGI Friday to keep your sugar and sodium intake in check. Soups are great to keep you full and satisfied without munching on the unhealthy greased meat-based dishes on TGI Friday menu.

Foods to Avoid at TGI Friday for Diabetics:

Sugar and sodium intake are crucial if you have diabetes. While the salads are the best option for you at TGI Friday, it is recommended to avoid the Pecan-Crusted Chicken Salad containing over 1000 calories and 1,650mg sodium. Also, skip Warm Pretzels with Craft Beer-Cheese dipping sauce as it contains more than 3000mg sodium. It is wise to skip the dessert for diabetics, especially the Brownie Obsession topped with Vanilla ice cream, caramel sauce, and pecans.

    I went with a group of women and our waitress, Sam, handled us all very well. We paid separately and she got all of our orders correct. There were no problems. She was also very friendly and had a good personality. I think the server you have makes a huge difference! Ask for Sam when you go :)

    Avoid this place as much as I can. It's a hit or miss really, but most of the time it is a miss. The drinks are pretty much water, the food is old. We always leave here with a stomach ache. I gave it two stars because their tomato basil soup on Tuesdays is so awesome it gives me cravings at times. But honestly I'll just pass by and pick it up most times, I won't really sit and order.

    I have been to several different TGIFs in the U.S., and usually the experience is about the same (except NY, where prices are absurdly high and service is..well.. it is NY after all). But unfortunately things are changing at TGIF, I clearly feel that the quality of the food and the service is going downhill. Last night we ordered ribs and the grilled chicken and shrimp. When the food came we all giggled.. the picture of the chicken and shrimp plate on the menu shows very different sizes (of both the chicken and the shrimp), but anyway, what else is new in this business? But the taste was good, everything was hot, in my opinion a 4* for a chain restaurant. What blew 1* off my rating is service. Although our waiter was nice and friendly, he was missing in action most of the time. Our drinks took forever (drinks = two glasses of draft beer, complicated?), arriving almost at the same time as the food, which by the way took very long too. Ordering the bill was another challenge in time travel, and then waiting for him to get my credit card to close it definitively signified a singularity in the time continuum black hole phenomena. One thing that really bothers me is the WATS ("waiters avoiding table service"), since the only job of a waiter is to ... wait tables! If he is always missing in action then he needs to change careers. Sorry. I'm paying... and tipping... I expect and deserve service, and I WILL knock off stars (and add stars too) for the quality of service I get. I hope TGIF fixes these issues, I like the concept and the food, but if I'm not 100% happy after spending my money I will start to look for other alternatives. Cheers!

    Not one of my favorite TGI Fridays out of all of the franchises. Slow service, the longest wait time to get attended, and the food here definitely tastes different than the other locations. I live about 8-10 minutes away but I make an effort to go to the other locations!

    Blah. I use to really like this place but after my last visit I reminded myself corporations SUCK! The food weighs heavy after I've ate it. And it doesn't taste authentic.... The service has mediocre. The server got our appetizer wrong, came back with a plate and told us to put the wedges in that plate since its not what we ordered. So you want us to grab the wedges and put them on your place so you can serve them to someone else? Or toss them out?? Lol Anyway idc to come back. This place sucks.

    I had a truly pleasant experience at this location. I sat at the bar and had great service. The bartender I believe her name was Holly was very personable and knowledgable about the menu. I always am a little apprehensive about coming to chains like this, but my service here definitely exceeded my expectations. Only con was that we stood at the hostess stand for a few minutes while a server was crouched down at the hostess stand on a personal phone call ignoring us. That is the reason we dined at the bar, unbelievable! The food came out very hot and the drinks were good. Try the Parmesan fries as a side, they are DELISH!!!!!

    This used to be one of our favorite places to go and just enjoy good food and drinks. It's sad to say that after our visit today it has changed. To begin the service was not anywhere near what it used to be. The place has gone from friendly and helpful waiters to careless unprofessionals. We sat and asked for drinks. The waiter recommended one of the new margaritas on the menu and my wife got a berry mojito shaker. When the drinks came, they had all the ingredients but the alcohol. The margaritas were pure sweet and sour mix with a bag of sugar added to them. The mojito tasted like water with a drop of raspberry juice. We sent the drinks back and when we received them again our waiter said that the recipe was done correctly. Apparently there is a new bartender in the house. I ended up asking for another berry mojito with an extra shot. It came separate because the bartender refused to mix it. Time for the food. Our waiter explained the new 10 dollar unlimited appetizer deal. When we decided to do it, he began to explain we couldn't order ten appetizers and that he was going to do an exception for us by letting us order up to four times. Seriously who orders more that 4 of the same appetizer at Fridays! I have to say we felt very uncomfortable with his recommendation and almost canceled the order. The food arrived for everyone but myself. I had ordered the shrimp and chicken sizzler and it arrived after the rest of the table was finished. By this time I had lost my interest in my order and was even more disappointed when the plate was placed in front of me. Two very minuscule pieces of chicken breast and 4 small shrimp, over yellow cheese and a spoonful of mash potato. What a disaster and horrific experience. What once used to be the place to enjoy in a Friday night has become anything but that. Definitely won't be stopping by for a long time.

    I'm writing another review for a chain restaurant, and as usual, I'll rate it a 3. Nothing really stood out to me, but nothing was oh my god awful. I definitely like having the TGIF Stripes rewards (very easy to sign up for this) because you get free chips and salsa as a starter. And studies have shown that it's in human nature to enjoy free appetizers. I think it might even be stated in the Bible, but in one of those lost books no one really knows about. Unfortunately, the drinks at this location were extremely weak, but I think this is true of most Friday's locations. The Blackberry Long Island Tea Shaker didn't even make my cheeks rosy, but it was still tasty and refreshing. I thought those drinks were supposed to be notoriously strong. And the strawberry daiquiri my family friend ordered was bubblegum pink, not the true reddish pink of a legit daiquiri - and it apparently tasted more like ice than strawberry. When we asked the server if they accidentally put in a virgin daiquiri order, she was very accommodating and said she'd ask the bartender to add more mix. When she came back, they definitely bumped up the alcohol level. So if you go to this location and your adult beverage tastes like it has zero alcohol, don't suffer in silence. They were very nice about fixing it. As for the food, it was fine. Burgers are always a safe bet. And the server let us try a side of the Jack Daniels sauce - I wasn't crazy about it, but I ordered the black bean burger. Not the best combination. All in all, TGI Friday's offers good discounts, good burgers, and the friendly staff clearly wants you to enjoy your experience there and come back again.

    Coming to Fridays was one of the best parts of my teenage years! Sad to say, but things have changed and not for the good! Miami has become quite the foodie city, so the competition is huge! The Larger chained restaurants are competing with smaller businesses which offer better service and food. Fridays totally stayed behind. To start off theybremodeled their location not so long ago and it's horrible! Extremely plain. I loved all the items they had hanging from the ceiling and on the walls! A very edgy and lively place to dine at. Not anymore :( I know the crowd is young most of the time but that doesn't mean you can talk to your guests like they're family. There's got to be some sort of professionalism. Our waiter recommended us some drinks that when they came tasted more like sour mix than alcohol. I opted out and got a berry mojito, let's just say all I tasted were the berries. Extremely watered down berry juice. Now, the only reason I gave them 2 stars is because I absolutely LOVE the fried green beans. They now have a deal that you pay $10 and get unlimited orders of it. It's a pretty good deal but I feel like they have to constantly do stuff like that to lure guests in. But apparently unlimited was limited! He explained that we couldn't get 9 or 10 of them. I mean who gets 9 of the same appetizer, but if it's unlimited what IF I do want 10? I usually get the Fridays shrimp for dinner, with regular fries. A dozen Fried shrimp. My husband got a sizzler which consisted of tiny chicken breasts and a few shrimp. Honestly, with what I paid here, we could've gone to any smaller restaurant and gotten better and bigger amounts of food. I'm sondisappointed with Fridays! It's just turned into a tragedy!

    Menus recently have been changed to mock a fancy restaurants- with high prices for the same food they had before and somehow also, the service quality has also plunged very low. *This part may be specific to this location* It all really happened!... -Our server waited 10 minutes to ask us for our beverage choices (before food) -He took it upon himself to decide what comes out- when; he brought out my salad 10 minutes after serving my boyfriend what he ordered for his entree. -When I ordered my food, I read it off the menu and our waiter said "Which one is that?". I literally had to tell him the price of it because he had no idea what was on the menu. -My ceasar salad came out dry so I had to ask for dressing. He came back and gave me Italian dressing- for my Ceasar salad O_o -My chicken and fries came out COLD and STALE, I had to have it sent back. -I asked for a side of sauce THREE times. It came to the point my boyfriend had to get up and go to the kitchen himself. The waiter came and asked how the food was that I hadn't touched yet- and I had to remind him for the 4th time, I'm still waiting on my sauce. -The waiter was saying sorry left and right to each table around us, and even asked someone at another table- "Wait, what did you order again?" -He decided he would give us 20% off (wonder why?)... when he brought us back our bill that totaled a little over $11.00, he deducted .60 cents- saying that this was the 20% off he so kindly granted us. See attached receipt. In conclusion, prices have gone up, food quality has gone down, and service has completely deteriorated. The server's name (for future reference) is 'Anfal'. We wont be back.

    If I could remove my one star I would. These people are absolutely ridiculous. Your food will pretty much always come out cold. The drink specials are not that great (grove has better ones and better ambiance) But I think the absolute worst part of this Friday's establishment is the manager who you never see and frankly, CLEARLY does not care at all about customer service or satisfaction. Avoid this place. ESPECIALLY Wednesday bingo nights and if you go to UM, they're just trying to take advantage of you.

    The food has really lost quality. The burger looked like it was microwaved, the plate was sloppy. Even the beer tastes bad. Rather spend a little more money on good food than waste money coming here. The only thing good was the waitress was very nice. That's it!

  • Merrick S.

    Food and ambiance - mediocre at best. Also, to anyone enticed by the "bingo nights" in the hopes that they will win $300? Don't get your hopes up at all. Our good friend won bingo, they announced his win over the loudspeaker, and the grand prize to be given to him. After half an hour of isolating him in the back of the restaurant, it was decided that he wasn't entitled to the $300. The manager then proceeded to "apologize" to us and handed our friend a $25 gift card to Fridays instead of the $300 supposedly "promised" to the winner. We use to go every Wednesday. Never. Again.

    Lame. Their draft beer wasn't working. Mixed drink took almost 15 minutes to get and their was only 6 or 8 people in the place! When the food arrived it was good but we had to hear the servers huddled around their station complaining. Lots of GD this and GD that. We ate and left to never return.

    From the draft pile. I know I know its getting drafty in here! Visit 3-17-13 around 7:30pm We had came here since we just picked up tourist visiting They didn't want to eat at any of the Cuban or Caribbean styled foods so American food was what they wanted. after a short wait about 20 minutes we were seated this place is very busy. Our server took great care of our table and explained the specials. Our meals were delivered fast and hot just like I like it. I did not expect this considering the low ratings Food 4 Service 5 (great server made all the difference.) Ambiance 4 Location 3 Value 3

    Went for lunch. We were seated right away and the waitress was very friendly and efficient. Menu selection is overwhelming so it might take you a while to figure what to order. We opted for the lunch special 3 choices for $15. It was OK. We ordered the BBQ chicken flat bread for appetizer. It was cold and soggy but as Soon as we told The waitress she took the plate and came back with a hot crispy. The rest was fine . In general if you are in a rush , with people braving different things and with a budget. That's the place to go.

    Last time I went the customer service was great but the portions of the food were really bad I had sizzling chicken and shrimp and the 6shrimp pieces were so tiny tiny and my chicken was over cooked and I asked if they could do anything and they made another and it was smaller and over cooked again I had the same food in others locations like the falls and also in Fort Lauderdale and were way better and well cooked not over cooked very disappointed

    If you want to feel totally let down, go to bingo on Wednesday nights. I played fair and got a winning card for a prize of $300. Then the manager sat me down to question me and found out I didn't order anything that night. I hadn't felt like drinking and I was on a strict diet counting calories, so I had water while my friends had drinks. He said, "sorry, bingo is only for paying customers" and shrugged his shoulders. I sat there as he repeated himself and realized he wanted me to walk away with nothing. Every one of my friends was angry and we promptly left.

    OK so I came back today again with my family for a quick lunch., and I must say WOW what a total difference from the last time I was here. The service was great and the food was delicious.

  • Adriana H.

    Le sigh.... Let me start off by saying I'm not a big fan of chain restaurants anyway. I ordered a few beers and a steak. My friend ordered some chicken wings. The wings were saturated with the sauce but were still dry. I asked for a medium rare steak , and it was cooked accordingly, but it was way too chewy. The food was blah overall, but the service was good, hence the three stars. I won't come here again. Like I said, I'm not a fan of chain restaurants anyway, but the food we had at this place was definitely mediocre.

    I love coming to TGI FRIDAYS. But every time I come to the one in the Falls. It's a mix feeling. I always come with my gf and sometime we enjoy it and some time we dont. It all depends on the food really. We come. There never someone in the front desk. It like there nobody there. Why?!?! They should always be a host there at all times. I swear I should run a Resturant. I rate it 3 just because I sometime enjoy it and sometime I don't.

  • Steven C.

    Every time we eat here, I want to try something new...but there is just something about their Jack Daniels Flat Iron Steak l, that is finger licking good!! If you decide to order it, I recommend a Medium finish so that your steak remains juicy. Their rewards program is great too!!

  • Christopher G.

    Stopped in for dinner with my cousin. Very superficial feel inside. The waitresses were a little air headed and service should have been a lot better for the lack of people there, we ordered some beers and it took forever to get to our table. Appetizer: we ordered the trio. We had boneless chicken, cheese sticks , and their famous potato skins (which have recently changed). This was probably the highlight of our visit. The cheese sticks were delicious and the new potato skins were great. The boneless chicken was covered in Jack Daniels sauce, which was probably the only thing that saved them. Dinner: Honestly, I wish we could have ended the meal with our appetizers. Instead we ordered some entrees. I ordered the parmesan crusted chicken, my cousin ordered the breaded shrimps. I was so disappointed with my meal, that the only thing that saved the night was that even though TGIF has inflated their prices I only paid 50 bucks for everything.

    Fridays is disturbing the residents. They have trucks coming to get the left over grease from the kitchen at all hours! It's pretty freaking gross if you ask me. That and my condo walls shake every time they come scoop up all of the tanks of left over nasty greasy oil. They are causing a major pest and roach problem for a few condo buildings. I dare someone to walk behind fridays and then post how many roaches they saw. Then go sit and have a nice dinner! Cheers!

    For what it is its pretty good. Especially the new menu. We come here all the time because its quick inexpensive and easy, plus the food is pretty good. If you go in after 9 you get specials on drinks and half price apps. I am not a fan of the pub quiz there though, we were trying to watch the game and the only TV's are in the bar area. So we couldn't avoid the pub quiz and it wasn't a very fun one at that. But that was one night and a dozen good nights shouldn't be ruined by one odd one. Since they updated the restaurant recently everything is super clean too!

    Is it me or has Fridays changed their food supplier? Appetizers were nothing like they used to be. Mozzarella sticks were not the same, marinara sauce was ice cold and the potato skins were some weird texture that did not even taste like potato. Broccoli cheese soup was very salty and not what it used to be. I used to love this place and now I'm not too sure it's worth it for the $$.

    Arrived at the restaurant with three friends on a Wednesday around 9:30. There were plenty of open tables but we had to wait because there weren't enough servers to handle more tables. So we stood around with other parties waiting for about 10 minutes. Once we were seated we waited another 10 minutes for our incompetent waiter to come and apologize two more times before we finally got place a simple drink order. Another 5 minutes passes by and were still waiting for our 4 glasses of water and to place our order. Now we finally place our order and the food eventually comes out. 3 orders come out together and then we wait another 5 minutes before the last dish came out. Thankfully the orders were right and this is the only reason they got two stars. Portions are good but the price doesn't exactly match the quality. Once we finish our meal it's time to wait again for the check and pay. And as you guessed it took another 20 minutes. All in all it took us an hour and a half to have what should have been a quick dinner. Overall, the service is crappy and the food isn't exactly worth the new menu prices. If you want a similar meal with less hassle and better taste take an extra 5 min and go to Chilis

    I'm writing this after a 30 minute wait for a table that had been empty since we arrived. In fact there were dozens of tabled empty or sitting littered with cups and napkins. The hostess seemed too occupied with flirting with all the men who walked through the door to pay attention to us, or the couple who had waited 30 minutes for a table. When I asked to speak with a manager, the manager came and seemed to care less about the fact that customers were waiting for tables for 30 minutes while tabled sat empty all around. I have not experienced worse customer service at a restaurant. The food was decent, the waitress was pleasant but the experience was terrible. I will not come back and urge others not to in hopes that they see a need to change their policies and their attitude towards customers.

    Queso Dip was luke warm. The boys liked the Pot Sticker and Mozzarella Sticks. Steak Tacos had a lot of everything but STEAK, shrimp were average, kids burger looks manufactured. Desserts on the combos are nice to look at, but portion size are small. Service was just ok.

    You know, this place... it's Fridays... you know what you are going to get, right? well, even that was too good apparently, the 3 course meal thing is now a 2 course meal, for the same price... the service was usually ok, last time I went it was just plain bad... even the manager didn't help us... what happened to this place?

    The first time I went to a Fridays restaurant was in the '70s and back then it was truly a dining destination. I used to order the Shrimp Friday which was large fried shrimp that rivaled any local seafood restaurant served with an amazing cherry dipping sauce. Remember that huge onion ring that used to come on the plate with most entrees? Great frozen drinks. Those were the days. Sadly Fridays has declined to the point where the food is not only unpalatable, it is void of any flavor, creativity, or substance. I have noticed this repeatedly over the last several outings to Fridays restaurants but my most recent visit to their Coral Gables location was the most disappointing yet. I ordered the Jack Daniels Sampler which was described on the menu as Jack Daniels chicken tenders, shrimp, and ribs. What arrived at my table were dry baby back ribs (no sauce), a few small fried shrimp that were popcorn sized, and some chicken nuggets (some were too small to even be called nuggets). Also on the plate was a ramekin of Jack Daniels sauce that was so small it only had about a tablespoon of sauce in it for all the items on my plate. The chicken nuggets that were described on the menu as tenders were inedible. My dog did enjoy them though. McDonalds has better chicken nuggets. The shrimp were nothing o write home about but they were better than the ribs. The shrimp I am sure were frozen but I could not tell because they were so little. The ribs were just plain crappy. I tried to put a little of that vapid sauce on them but there was hardly enough to give anything any flavor. What the heck happened Fridays? How do you go to being an excellent dining venue to serving food that is not fit for consumption? I don't get it. Needless to say the bar and restaurant were empty which speaks volumes. If I ever find myself in a situation where I must return I will probably order a salad or some other item that does not involve actual cooking. I am in no hurry to ever return.

    So nervous about coming back here after my last experience. Headed over with some friends for Happy Hour. They offer great Happy Hour specials in a chill, casual atmosphere. We grabbed a booth by the bar ordered some drinks and apps. Our server was great. Score! Finally we got good service and had a great time. She constantly checked on us, our food and drinks came out quickly, yes she was on the ball. Spinach dip was very good, boneless buffalo wings good, potato skins, well I do not eat them but the rest of the party liked them. Margarita's for $4, and they have alcohol in them. Ha Yes, we enjoyed them. This place is so hit or miss with service. Tonight I was glad to see it has improved so I will check them out again.

    I went for a drink before the University of Miami basketball game. I saw 5 or 6 bugs on the bar which completely turned me off. Unfortunately, I already ordered a drink. My girlfriend and I each ordered a Bloody Mary. Mine was pretty bad. No real flavor inside: just a bland mix. My girlfriend notices something in hers that she couldn't figure out what it was so she just stopped drinking it. Because of the game, there was a big crowd and the server was overwhelmed, so instead of letting her or a manager know, we just paid our check and left. Management may want to clean this place better and work on the proper staffing to ensure adequate service. Oh and please look into new Bloody Mary recipes or technique.

    Don't even bother coming to this location. The staff is really unprofessional. We had to flag down the host waiving like "here we are please notice us" :: waives hands frantically:: We had random waiters because three different people came to the table, and I had to beg for mayo like if they were doing me a favor. The food was ok' wayyyy to much seasoning on the sweet potato fries. Save your money don't come to this location!!!

    Friday's on a Monday. I was thirsty and tired of sitting in traffic. Beer was cold! Fries to salty and had to send burger back it was burnt. Don't think I will be back for a while. Maybe Friday's is better on a Friday.

    I just got home from there and honestly, I had the worse experienced. Since it's Thursday, they had the $3 apps and $3 drinks. I ordered mozzarella sticks with a margarita which the server told me I was able to get them to put a favor in for like $0.50 more which I thought was perfect. Turns out they weren't doing that anymore. I told her I was fine with that I guess no drinks for me. When I got my food, I ordered the Jack Daniel's Sampler and I couldn't eat the chicken without a glass of water. It was too much! I didn't finish it and ate the ribs and shrimp instead. When the time came to dessert, I ordered the brownie obsession. I thought to myself, didn't treat myself to a drink why not get a dessert. So I did and it was the biggest mistake! The brownie didn't even taste like brownie! It tasted like dirt! The ice cream was already melted! My friend ordered the same thing and her brownie was burnt! She didn't even finish it! We both thought, we should've gone with the Oreo Madness. The service was okay. We only saw our server to take our orders. She didn't even deliver our food. She bought us the water and checks. Make sure you go over your check and don't get charge for something you didn't order or did not get! She was overcharging me and apologized and change my check. She welcomed us back which was a nice thing for her to do. Overall my experience tonight made me realized I will not be going back to this TGIF. I rather drive to the one in Dolphin Mall. Maybe the service and food will be better than the one here!

    Green bean fries were good (probably because they're hard to mess up), but the potato skins and cajun pasta tasted like nothing. I could have gone to the grocery store, bought a box of pasta for $2, cooked it in a pot of water and it would have tasted the same. Service is slow even when its dead. I've been here at least 3 times, and every time the food and service has been low quality. Also, this last visit the 3-course meal turned into a 2-course meal for the same price. Would not recommend.

    Horrible experience here. I had not been to this Friday's for 6 years. The first time I went back was during the Heat Finals last game. The waiter was absolutely a joke. He didn't even bring us water until 30 minutes into the meal. He also didn't give my friends the Happy Hour special that was going on unless we sat on the other side of the wall that separated the bar from the dining room. It did not specify that anywhere! Also, my friends got their beers when I got my water. I was so disappointed sitting there because I used to go to that Fridays so many times when I was in high school. It was such a joke. I have never had such horrible service in my life. I do not recommend this Fridays at all! Oh and not to mention when they brought the manager over, he did nothing to fix the situation. You could tell how much he didn't want to help out. He didn't comp anything or offer a free drink to my friends. We work in customer service and the customer always comes first. You should try your best to fix the situation. Go above and beyond. I don't care if it's the apocalypse. You go out of your way. It's sad to see that Fridays has lost its touch. I was so excited to get the Oereo Madness when I first arrived, but then I didn't want to give the waiter any more of my time, so we decided to go to the TCBY next door..which was totally awesome!! It made up for the crap service we received. Plus, the food wasn't even that good. The bbq chicken pizza I got was lukewarm. The cheese wasn't even fully melted. NEVER GOING BACK. will try the Fridays at the falls mall instead.

    I'm going to settle on 3 stars, because the vanilla bean cheesecake saved the day, and because they didn't charge autotip. I stopped by after running some errands in the South Miami and I'm a fan of their bruschetta chicken pasta. Since it was just me, I sat at the bar (besides the Heat was getting ready to dismantle Memphis). Backing up for a second, I headed to the bar since there was no hostess out front at the moment I walked in. The bartender was occupied in conversation and flirtation with two other clients and I once again had to do my polite cough to get service. My dish was served after about a 15 minute wait, although it seemed uninspired and lacking in chicken and balsamic dressing as compared to the Friday's in The Falls a few months back. The bartender did recommend the vanilla bean cheesecake which was delicious with a fluffy meringue topping and smooth cake itself.

    Went back to Fridays a good 4 months and everything seemed like everything has changed.Terrible service, looks like they fired the old staff or at least most of them, took an hour to get food, there were a lot of mix ups with food that we didn't order. waiter failed at customer service and he seems that he literally started I say no more than a week ago. All in all, I won't back to this joint, I'll just stick to chillis.

    I'm not a fan of chain restaurants. Unfortunately, this is one of those go-to places for a lot of my college friends and so I find myself here every once and awhile. We usually sit around the bar, order some drinks and usually some appetizers to go along with it. On my last visit here, the waitress did not impress me one bit. I ordered a berry mojito, all to be brought (a long time later) a salt rimmed glass and berry margarita shaker. I sipped the drink, gagged, and after letting her know that it wasn't what I ordered, she didn't believe me (although I'm pretty sure any bartender would not salt a mojito glass). She brought it back to the bar to switch my order which the bartender immediately did. But I watched my berry mojito shaker sit at the bar, ready for pick up for a good five minutes. I was almost tempted to walk right up and grab it myself! Once it finally got to me, it was tasty. As were the potato skins and artichoke dip that I snagged from a few of my friends. Overall, it's an easy and cheap place to grab drinks and a bite to eat. But overall, not my first choice when I'm looking for a place to sit down and really have a good time with friends.

    It took 50 minutes for them to even take our drink order. They were severely understaffed and not well managed. People that were seated after us were served before us. This was my last chance given to them, and they failed by far. They have lost a customer due to incompetence and a lack of common sense.

    Last week I went with my daughter to have a mommy and me girl's night out and although a little disappointed that her steak was over cooked the manager surely made up for it. She not only removed the item from the bill but also gave us some perks. Nothing of which I had asked for because I know mistakes happen. I have never been disappointed with this particular location which my family and I always go back too.

    Went out for the usual Happy Hour Deals - Thursdays at Friday. We usually sit at the bar... but tonight there was no openings so we grabbed a booth behind "the happy hour wall." Thirty minutes later we received our beers. The chips for a spinach dip came out so late that the dip was already cold. When we asked about our usual $2 dollar beer specials -- the waiter told us we had to be at the bar. When we asked if we could order at the bar... the waiter barked back no with such a disgusting attitude! The waiter failed to acknowledge our table the whole night -- never brought us water or asked if we would like more drinks. Felt completely ignored the whole night. ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE SERVICE BEYOND THE HAPPY HOUR WALL!!! Manager came 30 minutes later and was completely unhelpful. Didn't even bother to correct the situation. Terrible service. If you find yourself sitting down with Norberto "Berto" (MOHAWK DUDE) RUN THE OTHER WAY!! WILL NOT BE ATTENDING THIS LOCATION AGAIN!!!

    I've been to Friday's all over the eastern seaboard and have had meh-to-WOW experiences at each location. Never have I had such a poor experience as I did at the one in the Gables. Ever order a cocktail in an empty restaurant in the middle of the week and have to wait 30 minutes for it? Neither had I - 'til I went here. My mom was in town and we wanted a quick lunch after a zoo trip with the kiddos and we happened to be on US-1 by this location. We were seated right away as the dining room was pretty empty. The waitress took 15 minutes to come and greet us and take our drink order. We were pretty agitated by this, but she apologized and all was forgiven. 'Til she disappeared for a half hour. And didn't bring our drinks. Flustered, I approached the hostess and asked for the manager. After speaking with the manager, my drinks were delivered a few minutes later. Lo and behold, I get the wrong friggin' drink. Oh hell naw. So I send it back and wait another 10 minutes to get the correct one. We ordered our meals when we finally got our drinks. The food took like 45 minutes to come out and was cold. Shortly after our food arrived, I needed to orchestrate a trip to the ladies room with 3 little people. I walk in the restroom and immediately am hit with the pungent aroma of vomit. The chorus that accompanies such smells, you know, awful, heaving, death throe sounds, was also present. And of course, they were in the large handicap stall that I need to use. F#~@! So I had to wait. I was embarrassed to have to wait and face this poor person, but I'd have been even more embarrassed by 3 kids leaving a trail throughout the dining room. At last, the infirm one emerges from the stall - and guess whooooo? - MY FRIGGIN' WAITRESS. OH HEEEEEEEELL NO! She gave me a sheepish grin and a nod, wiped her mouth with her sleeve, and was off. No handwashin', no nothin'. I was horrified. I did what I needed to do and hurried out of the restroom. I ran straight for the hostess again and politely, with a twinge of urgency, requested to speak with the manager once more. Manager came over, apologized, gave us our check (which I was charged for the improper drink AND the proper drink on - but she fixed it), and gave me a coupon for a free appetizer. A free app? Why in the world would I ever go back? I'm praying the waitress was just pregnant with some morning sickness or something and wasn't contagious. But seriously, if you're vomiting and work in food service most especially, stay home please. Gonna be a long time before I step foot in a Fridays again, if ever. :\

    After seeing a show in downtown, my boyfriend and I headed to TGIF Fridays in Coral Gables. We listed other places but since my car was in Coral Gables and Fridays was the only restaurant we could think of that was still opened at 11 p.m. we thought yeah we will go. After the hostess seated us, we saw our waitress after a 5 minute wait. Since it was late at night, we were not in the mood of eating an entree but we wanted to try some appetizers. As I perused the menu, I came across an item which read: Friday's Pick Three For All. You pick one appetizer from a list and two others from another list. We picked the boneless wings with Garlic Parmesan sauce, the loaded potato skins and pan seared pot stickers. It was served very hot. There about 8 pieces of boneless chicken wings, 4 loaded potato skins and 4 pot stickers. Perfect for our appetite! We washed it down with hot tea and water to make our perfect evening! We both took our time in enjoying our food and our experience is always great every time we go to Friday's!

    I will say this: they have cool stuff hanging on their wall. We had to emphasize to the server that our fries must come out "Hot" and "Fresh". And whaddya know...they did! Don't forget to tell your server to make sure your food comes out hot. People thought this was: Absurdly Funny (0) Completely Useless (113) Cool in a 60's Beatnik Way (8)

    After not hanging out with a close friend for a while, we decided to go to Fridays as a last minute kind of thing and I have to say I was glad that I was in a good mood. Our server looked like she was HIGH AS A KITE! She couldn't remember anything, forgot to bring my friend utensils for her side salad, forgot our straws, and actually asked us if we had asked for the check. HAHA-- like I said, I was in the mood to laugh. As far as the food, I tried the BBQ Chicken Wrap for the first time-- not my favorite. I like BBQ sauce but, in my opinion, is was overabundant. A hint of BBQ would have sufficed, I almost wanted to say, "Can I have some chicken wrap with my Barbecue sauce?" :/ Three stars from me, had I been in one of my moods it would've probably been 1 or 2 stars.

    The bartenders kick ass and the happy hour specials are always super cheap. The food is your standard Friday's garbage, but it's pretty cheap as well. This location, right across US1 from the University of Miami, is always filled with UM youth and they do trivia and bingo and other fun events throughout the week.

    Finally! A good experience at a chain restaurant! We were a little wary of this place after our friend's bad experience there. But we braved it for happy hour, and in the end - we were all glad we did! Our waitress was super sweet and helpful. We ordered $4 margaritas (besides happy hour, they also have daily drink specials that run all day) that were actually really tasty. Plus a variety of apps - spinach dip (yum!), boneless wings, potato skins and green bean fries. Green bean fries were overcooked, unfortunately, but everything else was pretty good. It was half off most apps, and 1/2 off well drinks, too. All in all - a very pleasant experience, and inexpensive to boot. :) I'm sure we'll be back for happy hour.

    Me and my friend stopped here on a whim after leaving a bar hungry. To be fair, the food wasn't bad. It just wasn't good. Theproblem was the service. The waitresses were nice but they seemed very forgetful. 1. It took forever for the waitress to get to take our order. 2. When we finally got the food they had made me the wrong thing. 3. I had to wait an extra 15 minutes for them to come out with my proper food. 4.When the food came out they forgot to bring silverware so we sat for another 10 minutes before we could get the hostess to bring us forks. The service was pretty bad so I was going to give them 2 stars but I feel like the waitress was genuinely nice and was trying her hardest. I believe the lack in service might have been due to short staff (It was a saturday night, they should know better! lol). I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt. I'll probably return another night and I'm sure my review will change.

    This is a review on the service only, not the food. I came here with a few friends but didn't eat. The service was great, the waitress was very helpful and courteous even though we were quite a hand full... I asked around and everyone said their food was hot except their fries. The fries were just warm... Gregory N was right about their being a lot of cool things hung along the wall. They totally beat the other TGIs I've been to in the decor department.

    "Sometimes you want to go, where everybody knows your name." Well I don't! Sometimes I want to go where only one person knows my name. And his name is BEN THE BARTENDER! Ben knows my name, my drink, and that I take my steak Medium. Then he leaves me alone to enjoy the silence of one hand clapping. LOL Each and every time I have come here BEN makes sure that my drink, my food are always right. Sometimes he provides light conversation just to see how I'm doing and how life is treating & vice versa. Outside of that, he keeps my glass filled until I give the hand signal that I'm done. Happy hour is the best. 2-4-1 drinks & 1/2 off a selected choice of appetizers. You can get your drink on & eat on without spending no more than $25. Now that is what I call a great deal. See you soon Ben.

    2.5-3 Stars I have to say I wasn't impressed with this location. The waitress was nice but I had to grab her attention for a few things. I ordered the Cobb Salad without blu cheese and with Ranch Dressing on the side. The cobb salad comes with black olives, avocado, lettuce, tomato, cheddar cheese, hard boiled eggs and blu cheese. So I asked I got my salad without the blu cheese (GOOD), BUT NO Cheddar Cheese. I also go Honey Mustard on the side instead of Ranch. I let her know I needed Ranch dressing and then I noticed my salad had no cheese. So I asked her. I said "Does this salad come with cheddar cheese"? I thought perhaps I read wrong. No, I was right, she replied "Yes it comes with cheddar cheese". As she's looking at my salad I had to still tell her well, my salad doesn't have any. Can I please get some cheese on the side? She brought the cheese and the ranch dressing. The lettuce wasn't fully fresh, but it wasn't bad. I had to then flag her down to get the check and then she walked away, so I had to flag her down again to pick up the check. Needless to say I got to work 4 minutes late. =/ Not bad, but I would have been on time, if I didn't have to flag her down and go back and forth so many times. I don't think I will be going back anytime soon.

    TGI Fridays food is what it is. The part about this one that stands out that it is right across from UM and it has a 3-7 and a 9-Close Happy Hour menu. I guess it sucks for you if you want to eat and drink from 7-9. They have $2 drafts and $2 - $2.50 mixed drinks. Also some other drink specials. They also have 1/2 priced appetizer specials which is awesome. Only catch is there is no to-go orders.

    Went there a couple months ago and it wasn't bad. Service was ok and the food was what you would expect. Decided to go again last night since my girlfriend and I were in the area, worst restaurant visit EVER. Server was never anywhere to be found, I think he checked on our table maybe two times? But he had no problem checking on the table next to us full of college girls. We had to get up from the table, and ask the HOSTESS to go check on our food and to get the manager so we could talk to her. The food was average and not at all worth the trouble. The funny part? We would have left a WAY bigger tip then those living off their parents college girls, instead here's a tip: Stop ogling underage girls and DO YOUR JOB you creepy man.

    I attended a college alumni function here before a basketball game at the BankUnited Center. It's a very large restaurant so finding a seat in the reserved bar area was not that bad for a party of 30+. The service was okay but waiter took separate checks without an issue. It's TGI Friday's so the food was pretty much what I expected. There was plenty of parking in front, even on a game night.

  • Denise M.

    Where do I start? Honestly, this Friday's has left me disappointed. The only reason why you're getting two stars it's because the manager came out when we asked. The food at this location was meh! For appetizers, I ordered the Fried Mozzarella. These tasted like if they we done early in the morning and then just reheated. Same went with my entree. After we finished with our entrees and asked for our desserts to come, we had to wait 20 minutes. Mind you the restaurant was half empty. Anyways when ther server finally brought our desserts, he had them stacked one on top of the other. As he was handing out the forks for dessert (seriously, who uses a fork for dessert?), there was a strong smell of chlorine eminating from them. When we looked at our plates, they where still wet (and I'm not saying wet at the bottom of the plate, but with little puddles of water next to our desserts) and also smelled of chlorine; which caused me to gag and ask for a refill on my soda, and SURPRISE, the glass also smelled of chlorine. (I get it... You want your customers to know you use clean plates, but you shouldn't try and kill them with the smell of chlorine!) Let's see what else was wrong with dessert? Oh yeah, the other 4 people I was with ordered the Oreo Madness... Yeah I'd be mad to if my dessert came out melted! I wasn't able to really enjoy my Vanilla Bean Cheesecake, fearing that I might get poisoned from chlorine overdose..... One thing which to me was rude, was that they brought out the check before we even got our desserts.

    I'm not a fan of Friday's. However, I am a fan of happy hour. My friend and I fully took advantage of the late night happy hour and all it offered. It was $3 draft beer, $2 well drinks, and $4 wine. But why would you have wine at Friday's? Anyway, the appetizers were also half price, so guess what we ate? We shared one of the Friday's Pick Three for All. It was ok. Again, not a fan of their food. We had the onion rings with the traditional wings and potato skins. None of which were great. Then we tried the spinach and artichoke dip with the nachos. THAT was way better. The service was a bit lacking though. They took forever to come and sit us. Actually, had to go and look for someone to come and seat us. The waitress didn't come often enough. In fact, she had a MUCH larger table next to us and if it wouldn't have been for them she wouldn't have come to check on us. My bill, including tip came out to a little over $11. It is the least amount of money I've spent on drinks and food EVER! It is also exactly the right amount of money that should be spent at Friday's any time.

    So they've changed their menu and tried to get all top-chef on us, but it's not working!!! We can see that you've just concocted some wierd stuff and tried to tell us this is the cool yummy thing to eat but it's not working! We know better. We know that eggplant doesn't go well with salad, We know that burgers shouldn't be bland, We know that cocktails should have some alcohol in them and YES! WE KNOW THAT A SPORTS BAR SHOULD HAVE TV SCREENS BIG ENOUGH FOR THEIR CLIENTS TO SEE WHO'S WINNING!

    I visit this Fridays for lunch about once a month or so. I've always been happy with the food but have some issues with the service. Today, I wanted my usual salad, soup, drink, breadsticks meal. However when I asked for French onion soup I was told that it was an extra $2. Say what? Yup, I've been ordering this for months and today was the first time I was forced to choose either broccoli cheese or chicken tortilla soup. I can't have those! I'm lactose intolerant! So, I had a bacon cheeseburger. But they forgot the cheese! Although the burger was good, it took 45 minutes to get to me. In the meantime, my lunch date had her meal and finished way before I got mine. Poor, poor kitchen service. Our server was very nice and apologetic about it and she still got her 20% tip. But I was pissed! Most of the patrons here work and barely have an hour for lunch. On top of that, the place was nearly empty. I'm very dissapointed. If they don't get their act together and soon, there will be no more Fridays here.

    I think this is a pretty good Fridays. Compared to the other chain restaurants (Chilis, Applebees, ect) I think they need a better happy hour. The food is not bad but I think it's a bit pricier than it should be. Service is usually pretty good. All in all it's not a bad experience but the cons listed above make it the chain I'd say I'm least likely to visit.

    If you're looking for a place to have snacks and drink, I would highly recommend coming here for happy hour. Their happy hour special only applies when you sit at the bar area and starts at 9pm and ends when it closes. All appetizers on the menu are half-price and the well drinks are only $2. My friends and I usually come here every Friday to pre-drink before we head out to sobe.

    This review is on my service, not so much the food. I ate here last night and I must say, I love TGI Fridays, but for some reason, no matter how full or empty this Fridays may be, their kitchen is ALWAYS "Backed Up". I'm not sure if its that they sit on the orders and make you wait, but it was bad. I ordered a Jack Daniels Chicken sandwich, and it was great, and my girlfriend had the Endless Lunch (Salad, Soup and Bread sticks) and after 30 minutes of waiting, the waitress only brought out 2 bread sticks, and then 20 minutes after that she brought out our meal. The sandwich was the way I ordered it, but the Salad was made wrong, and they forgot to send out the sauce which we both specified to her several times, and she seemed to have write it down with our order. The restaurant wasn't that packed, but it got full maybe 20 minutes after we got there. This is not the first time that this has happened at this TGI Fridays, but I certainly hope its the last time it happens. I will most likely choose another Fridays to go to where I have gotten better and faster service than this, even with more people ordering food at the same time.

    The food here is always tasty as usual. I've been here various times and i must say the staff is always friendly and polite. Moreover, the interior is always clean . I ordered the chicken wrap with a salad and i must say i was quite satisfied with my lunch. In addition, the prices varies. Also, if u r lookin for happy hour they have awesome prices on drinks. I will definately visit again and check out their happy hour sometime in the future. smooches

    I have this gift of arriving at restaurants right before they're closing, and not noticing. Thats what happened to me when I came here. So much so, that they're were cleaning around us, very uncomfortable.And the food wasn't that good.

    It's edible. Bland, but edible. They serve drinks. I suppose that's something.

    A UM student hang-out, this Friday's usually has a younger crowd. My family and I eat there maybe three times a year and the food is always good. Like any restaurant service is better when it is less full. Overall, we like eating here because it is a good, quick meal at reasonable prices.

    since it's right across from UM this is a popular college spot. i've spent my fair share of time here my freshman year. the lack of a car probably helped. it's just like any other friday's, no better, no worse. and the only food i'd order... anything w/the jack Daniel's glaze. mmmm. but then i moved off campus and got a car and learned about topsecretrecipes.com and now i make my own jack daniel's glaze. sorry friday's.

About TGI Friday

TGI Friday is a casual dining American restaurant chain founded in 1965. The term “TGI” is an acronym for Thank God It's and together the name of the restaurant is often announced as Thank God It's Friday. Over the years of its existence, the TV commercials and other advertisement streams have also twisted the phrase a bit and used it as Thank Goodness It's Friday. The restaurant serves alcoholic beverages primarily. However, they are also known for their low-carbohydrate and low-fat menu items to promote a healthy lifestyle. TGI Friday also offers gluten-free items on its menu for those with gluten intolerance.

Besides the cool name, TGI Friday also has an interesting background story of its origin. 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.
