TGI Fridays

The place looks great with it’s new renovations and the food for the most part was good. We sat at the bar, because the dining area was packed and there was a 45 min — an hour wait time. We had the slider as an appetizer and the shrimp was not cooked. The bartender’s (young male), excuse was «shrimp is always mushy». However, the shrimp WAS RAW. It was not cooked. He didn’t even look at the shrimp when we showed him, he mumbled an apology, but didn’t ask if we wanted another batch, nor did he offer to take some money off the bill. This is not professional. Perhaps they need better bartenders who can also serve with professionalism. We only came here because every other place in Bergen County on a Saturday night had an exceptionally long wait time. Serving raw fish gets people very ill and the lack of apology we received from this young guy was disturbing. We won’t be back because of him.

Service it’s OK on a good night. Everytime i have come to this Fridays everything takes a while even when they are almost empty. Waiters don’t pay enough attention to you and you may wait 10 minutes for a refill (like me right now).
Worst part is they tend to overcook your food, so if you like medium well you gonna get well done.
This is a place to come if you are really close and you just need to eat something. With so many restaurants a few hundred feet away (cheesecake factory, maggianos, pf change etc) there’s no reason to come here.

I’m actually having dinner here right now, really disappointed with the service of the waiter, first thing he was taking our app order and someone passed by and started talking to that person and left me there with the word on my mouth, next thing ordered 4 cokes, 2 piña coladas and one Shirley temple, he never brought the piña coladas.
I told the people I was having dinner with that I would bet that he was gonna mess up the order, the food came one of the meals one were missing 15 min and I’m still waiting for it.
I’m giving it one star because i need to at least click on one to do the review but not coming back…
I guess the manager has some other stuff to do better than pay attention to employees.
The waiter’s name was Terrell and it was table 31 :(

Went out tonight to this restaurant and what a disappointment with food and service. I got Mahi Mahi. Fish was overdone, mashed potatoes tasted like out of the box. Food was not seasoned and tasteless. My daughter had chicken and shrimp with mashed potatoes and she just ate shrimp. Everything else on a plate went to garbage. I would not even consider it a leftover… waste of money and time. Will never go back to this place again. It’s worse than McDonalds. Waitress looked tired and unhappy. Had to wait forever to get our drinks. Very depressing and unhappy.

I went to Friday’s awhile back and had a very uncomfortable experience I feel like every time I’m there I need to speak to a manger but the server rarely ever gets them. I went on one night and there was a man in the ladies restroom. He did not work there he did not even have a reason for being in there he was talking on his cell phone I immediately walked out of the bathroom while informing a server that there was a random guy in the female bathroom no action was taken there was no manager to tell this man to leave the ladies bathroom. Finally I just got my boyfriend to go say something and get him out the other ladies were just as stunned as I was. It was not so much privacy but as a women’s safety. Another time I was there my boyfriend ordered Cajun pasta and I opted for endless apps boneless wings and tostones his food arrived before my apps even got to the table he finished his food and I still had no apps no food and the drink I ordered never came when I asked to speak to manger he apologized and said the endless apps only come out one at a time. But I never even gotten the first one. By the time the apps came I didn’t even want it they came mid dessert the dessert came before my apps ! Overall bad experiences

Good service nice staff and what more can I say it’s fast food but good quality fast food that I enjoyed very much. Don’t come here often but I love the décor and it’s a fun atmosphere too hang with friends and family

Excellent service, atmosphere is good — not too loud even though it’s a «sports bar.» Food was decent, had standard cheeseburger and fries. They listened to my medium well instructions which is kind of unusual. Would definitely go back for a burger. I didn’t have a apps but I’m sure there good — saw a lot of them fly by the table and was very tempted. Drinks are a little watered down but again pretty typical for these types of places.

Just the average Friday’s. We hadn’t been here in a while and we had a gift card to use. Everything tasted great. Our waiter was awesome. Super nice and making jokes like we’ve been friends for a while.

Let me start off by saying: This is the first time I actually went after people were always talking about it…
Now, we go inside, and it is nice. It was half empty. Everyone was about to go home. That’s pretty much it.
We go inside and they asked us how much and we told him and they showers us to our table…
As soon as he showed us to our table, he didn’t come back until 10 minutes later and then asked us for beverages. He comes back 20 minutes with our beverages. Then he asked us for our food and we have him the order.
We did the regular thing of waiting (by taking out our phones) for our waiter to serve the food and all, and comes back an hour later with the food. Everyone is wondering «Why did the food take this long to make?» But it’s fine since it was my first time coming here.
(Keep in mind, it was just 4 appetizers – should not take that long to make)
The food was great, especially with the endless appetizers for only $ 10. Great food and great deal!
Only issue (s) I didn’t like were the customer service. Customer service was low, I’ve never seen horrendous customer service.
The great part was the food! That’s pretty much it…
Overall, it is up to you to decide whether you would like to come here or not. Bad service with great food.

I went for happy hour, and was disappointed with the service and cleanliness. Also, they «ran out» of the only non-​light happy hour beer, and refused to substitute anything else. So I ended up without any happy hour deals; since I wouldn’t drink Coors Light.
Very dirty location, and the manager needs to pull his act together. The bar smelled; and the floors were sticky. Not at all up to par with an average «Friday’s».

I will never be caught dead in this restaurant again.
1. We got seated in what seemed like the dirtiest part of the restaurant. The floors had crumbs and napkins on the floor and about 2 of the tables sat dirty for our entire meal. Even our table was not clean, my arm after leaning was stuck in some sticky substance.
2. The area was split by two waitresses, we were stuck with a very slow and non-​friendly waitress. She was in slow motion and took forever for things to come out. Anything from soda to our meals. Thank god we didn’t get an appetizers or I think I would still be sitting there.
3. My meal was so tiny that I was still hungry after. Typically when I order the jack Daniel’s chicken strips I have enough for an entire other meal. There was maybe ⁴⁄₅ small pieces. And it was cold. My boyfriends chicken was chewy. Yes — chewy.
4. We would have complained but it was very rare that we saw her. We didn’t even get a second round of drinks. By the time we had her back we just wanted the check and to leave.
I’ve been here before and although it wasn’t 100% perfect it was always decent. But that’s the last time I will ever, ever go back. Do yourself a favor and go to the Applebee’s across the street.

I happen to be a Stripes member and was looking for a Friday’s location since:
A. I happened to be in Jersey
B. I was craving those bacon covered jalapeños they keep advertising
and
C. This was the closest location to the GWB I could find
Now, when you’re driving here it can be a bit confusing on where the entrance is, but once you find the parking lot you’re set.
During my visit it was a bit late in the evening and there were a couple of happy hour deals going on. My boyfriend and I went inside and sat by the bar. We ordered a few of the $ 5 appetizers along with a pint of beer and cider. They have a few drink specials, but I wasn’t really interested.
The bacon wrapped jalapeños were EVERYTHING and more. I thought 4 wouldn’t be enough, but that was just the right amount.
Conclusion: Service is pretty average, wait time is quick, and the food was good.

By far the worst sanitary restaurant I have ever seen. The lack of ethics the member showed by inserting their bare hands in my food after it being made incorrectly turned my stomach. The lack of compassion once he noticed I had seen him brings great concern on how many other merchants he has done this to.
Customer service at its worst.

Had a great time here on a Tuesday night. It was $ 5 jack drinks all day and they also have this low price menu for select drinks that is everyday. $ 5 LITs.
I haven’t been to Friday’s in a long time and they updated their menu. They have the unlimited appetizers with a limited selection. They have 2 for $ 16 now instead of 2 for $ 10 or 2 for $ 12. Just seems like the food up’d in price a bit but it’s cool. Friday’s food doesn’t disappoint me at all.
So I order the three taste and share for $ 16; bacon mac & cheese bites, thai pork tacos, and corned beef & swiss sliders. They were all so tasty. The mac and cheese in the fried balls was filled with gooey cheese it was delicious. The thai pork taco had good taste to it but the whole taco itself was cold which was disappointing. The sliders were amazing, they are on a nice soft pretzel bun, comes with pickle, and the onions on the slider were to die for, sweet and full of flavor. They were the best out of the three. My friend got the 2 for $ 16, the bbq flatbread pizza with the steak and fries. Her steak was pretty good and the fries were perfectly salty. Our drinks were super good too. I had an LIT and she had the peach honey smash or something like that. It was super good and not too sweet.

The staff was a bit slow but friendly enough.
The food was alright. It’s a TGIFriday’s, I don’t expect much. However, for the money, I think I’d prefer hitting up elsewhere when it’s about $ 15 – 20 a plate.
Not the best — not the worst.

Wow — tons of bad reviews but I always like this location.
Bar is active and servers are friendly.
The food is typical chain food. Love most of the apps — wings, pot stickers and pretzels with dipping sauce are all good.
My man loves the Jack Daniels ribeye.
They always seem to be updating the menu with new items.
Overall, every now and then I want to eat at a Fridays and this one always gets it right!

Pretty average TGI Friday’s. Food is exactly what you would expect from this chain of restaurants. Located between two office buildings. I find it hard to review chain restaurants as they are normally all the same. I had an issue here were my credit card was not properly returned to me after a paid my bill. The manager took zero responsibility for this. Service was barely OK. I will only return to this location if I have no other choices. I have no praise to give to this location. I find that a store shows it true colors when problems occur. The manager at this location just showed that he cared as little as the rest of the staff– basically felt to me like they all were just trying to get to the end of their shifts; no one here goes the extra mile.

I went to fridays and sat at the bar there was a bartender named sam who did not look like he wanted to be there. It was a little f*cked up because usually theres two bartenders there, so anyway he was a little moody and kinda brushed me off because he had other customers to attend to.
I dont blame him although i made it clear verbally that i wasnt happy with the service because they ran out of stella and they promoted it on there Tuesday happy hour menu.
This fridays has good food and a nice selction of beer but the wait staff are clumsy always dropping things in the dinning room. Ive been here twice and both times …

The fact is you’re coming to a TGIFridays so you need to bottom line be realistic with your expectations and based on my expectations for a chain restaurant I thought it was a decent low key night out. The mojitos were sweet but did its job. The all you can eat apps for $ 10 were fine: the spinach dip came with long chips; the boneless wing bites were spicy; the mozzarella sticks were just what they were supposed to be. The bruschetta was slightly disappointing and maybe cause that was the «freshest» thing we ordered but I enjoyed the chunks of garlic.
We sat by the bar the server wasn’t always available but once we flagged them down they were great.
Clean bathrooms, ample parking, a fun low key night out!

Went in here for lunch right around Thanksgiving and the place was empty. It was an off hour for lunch, I’ll give you that. We decided to sit at the bar and see what happens. You would figure being sandwiched right in between two office buildings there would be a few more people. Bartender was friendly, not overbearing which is a good thing. Checked in on us as necessary to see how we were doing. Ordered some apps which were fantastic. I think we picked the potstickers, the skins and the boneless wings. Then it was on to the sandwich, I got the Jack Daniels grilled chicken and it was pretty good.
In all, I would definitely be back for a few more rounds and some grub.
