TGI Fridays

My server was the beautiful Angelica! I had a great experience thanks to our server. They were incredibly friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. Their positive attitude and quick service really stood out and made the whole visit more enjoyable. It’s always nice when someone takes the time to check in and make you feel welcome. Excellent service!

10/10 service tonight at TGI Fridays 🙌 Shoutout to our waitress Demi — she absolutely killed it. Super friendly, attentive, and made sure everything came out perfect the whole time. Drinks stayed full, food came out fast, and she checked in at the right times without being overbearing. You can tell she actually cares about giving great service, which made the whole experience way better. If you get the chance, definitely ask for Demi — she’ll take good care of you. Appreciate the great service!

We always come to TGIF we love the people here the ambiance the drinks and the food but today one server stood out for us. Her name was Taylor. We were a big group and she took care of us. She was also super patient with us we had a lot of special requests and she wasn't upset by it. Her attitude gives off sunshines and roses and it brought delight to our evening as well. She was great! Thank you Taylor!!

Trever was our server and he was fantastic. From the moment we arrived, he was very welcoming and attentive. He made sure to let us know about the current happy hour small bites and explained the benefits of the rewards club, which we appreciated. Throughout our visit, he checked in regularly and made sure everything was going well with our food and drinks. Great service overall!

I had an amazing experience at the Porter Ranch location of TGI Fridays thanks to Mr. Andres! From the moment we were seated, he was incredibly helpful, polite, and attentive. He made sure we had everything we needed and consistently checked in to ensure we were enjoying our meal. What really stood out was how he went above and beyond with his customer service. His positive attitude and professionalism truly made our visit special. It’s rare to find someone so genuinely dedicated to providing a great dining experience. Thank you, Mr. Andres, for making our visit such a pleasant one. We’ll definitely be coming back!

10/10 loved the service. Went here for the first time with my sister and sister in law and it was amazing. Our server Trevor made the experience even better very charismatic and funny. He was very polite and checked up on us and the table in front of us very often. Probably will go again we hope trevor is there to help us again 😌.

I had such a great experience at TGI Fridays, thanks to our waiter, Trevor! From the moment we sat down, he was warm, welcoming, and super attentive. He checked on us often. Trevor’s positive attitude and genuine kindness really made our visit stand out. It’s rare to find someone who brings that much energy and care to the table. We’ll definitely be coming back thank you, Trevor, for making our night so enjoyable!

Demi is awesome! Her service is on point, very attentive and has a very great Costomer service. We left satisfied with her service.

I've been to many a TGI in my day, and it's pretty standard across the board. I will say that this location in particular offers something the rest don't - a very attentive server by the name of Azure! It's rare to get such family-feel service at a chain spot, and he nailed it. He handled my whole party with ease and didn't flinch at our many requests. Definitely knows his stuff. I usually feel embarrassed to ask a lot of questions, but he was super patient and gave great suggestions. I was debating between a few entrees and ultimately chose the cobb salad and was super happy with it. Personally enjoyed it with light onion. True casual environment, good place for lunch or dinners accompanied by friends. Great drinks too with friendly bartenders. Thanks Azure, and thanks TGI!

Came here for lunch on a slow Wednesday afternoon. Service was okay, we ordered the potstickers and a combo plate with 2 orders of (6) traditional wings and 1 order of (4) mozzarella sticks. The potstickers we were charged $15 for 3 potstickers. Literally had to check the website to see how many potstickers come in a normal order and it looked like closer to 6, which is still so overpriced. They give 3 potstickers if you order it as part of the combo order, which we didn't. For the combo plate we only received 3 mozzarella sticks and had to ask for the fourth. It would be one thing if it's chaotic or busy, I can understand missing something here or there. But for our order to be short on two occasions is ridiculous. Server didn't have a single clue what was going on. This was such a waste of money.

My mom, sis, niece and I came here as we often do as it is halfway between our homes. BOY WHAT A GREAT NIGHT!!! We met our adorable waiter named Trevor. He was the nicest, most attentive man we had ever had the pleasure of having as a waiter. He was quick to take our drink orders and also brought an appetizer my mom and sister wanted. I do reviews often and I can say I was so enamored by his energy and outpouring of love, I forgot to take pictures of our food!!! Lol have never had that happened. My mom's birthday was today and she turned 90. Well after we told him that, he made a special treat for her afterwards. We all had dinner and enjoyed the delicious flavorful food they have. I got a 6 oz sirloin steak with like 20 broccoli trees and the garlic herb butter and whiskey glaze sauce made it that much better. My sis got a large salad and so did my mom, a Thai salad. They loved their salads. Anyway we all enjoyed our food immensely and when we were done, several waiters came over and clanged some metal together and shouted "we have a birthday over here!!!" We all sang her the birthday song and she loved it!!! Made her birthday so special. When it was time to pay, Trevor took the bill away and came back and said i am gonna pay for your whole meal!!! I was like omg I have never in my life had a stranger or waiter pay for a meal for us!!! How kind and sweet was that!!! We told him how grateful we were and he told us of his hard time getting off the ground after some difficult hurdles as a younger man and how it was something he does from time to time for people he feels are so kind to him he wants to give back and get good karma..we were all amazed and in shock at his generosity !!! We decided to leave a very good tip and then he had to leave as he had other customers and it was almost the end of his shift. Anyway what a sweet handsome loving human being. Gave my heart a jolt. I said " I felt your love when you first came to our table and said did you see how cute our waiter is, and his big soulful brown eyes!!! When he told us his story we wanted to hug him. In any event we will definitely be back!!! He did have a big heart and great karma. God was watching over all of us. I felt it very strongly. His love was powerful. Note the one picture I took of my mom and her free dessert for turning 90. She was elated!!!

If you come to this location, make sure JAMES is your waiter! He made our experience super extraordinary and recommended some yummy plates/sauces. He was super attentive and made sure our experience was exceptional. Thank you so so so much James!!! Mgmt!! Give this man a raise!

TGI Fridays holds such nostalgic memories for me. I used to come here with my parents when I was a little girl, and I remember being so excited every Friday night. It had been at least 10 years since my last visit, so I decided it was time to return. It wasn't quite as magical as I remembered, but it was still a good time. The menu is huge, with so many options, so there's something for everyone. The bar area was packed on a Thursday evening, and I could tell many people were there for happy hour and to watch the game. However, I'm not really into sports or drinking--I'm here for the food. This time, I opted for the 6oz steak, which came with a side of my choice. I went with fries, and they were perfectly seasoned, just the way I like them. It seemed like they were a bit understaffed during my visit, as our waitress appeared a little stressed. She kept apologizing for the wait and for not checking in as often, but she did her best, and honestly, that's an A+ in my book. It's always nice to see someone working hard, even when things get tough.

Had a nice lunch with my nephew and our server Andy was fantastic ! He was patient and very helpful with my nephew who is autistic . The food was good and the service Andy provided was fantastic !

This place is definitely two stars on yelp for a reason haha. Their food sucks. I swear everything we ordered tasted frozen and microwaved. I think they literally microwaved our edamame after we said we wanted to eat it warm not cold. Like wtf. Gourmet prices for frozen food is it not it for me. Even the alcoholic drinks were not good. Do not waste your money here. Service wise it was a hit or miss. Overall very attentive. Some servers were extremely nice and others just wouldn't smile whatsoever. Inside it's dark, and it is an intimate vibe. They do have a full bar, group tables, a large parking lot. However the tables were STICKY!!! At least the table we were sitting at was, and the menus were sticky as well. I felt gross. Overall food isn't inedible which is why it isn't one star. But again they need to lower the prices for their quality of food, service, and ambience in order for dining here to be more worth it.

My family and I walked in. A man comes up and says that someone will be helping us shortly. We sat down and waited, 15 minutes pass and no one has come back to host us. It felt like we were forgotten so we stood up and was looking around for staff, finally grabbing the attention of the others. After that, we were finally seated. It was a rough start and we were close to deciding to leave due to that. But luckily we got seated just as we were thinking of it. We were served by our server Molly. She was very friendly and full of smiles, helping our experience be so much better. She was awesome!! Checking up on us often and clearing plates from our table. She was wonderful. We shared two full rack babyback ribs: 1) Whiskey sauce: More flavorful with spices. The spiciness builds up gently. Dry rub style. 2) House barbecue sauce: Wet and saucey style. Yummy barbecue, classic sauce. Tame flavoring. Both ribs were tender and soft to chew and enjoy!! Shrimp and chicken cajun pasta: Creamy noodles with a kick. The chicken breasts were cut into medium-sized squares. My favorite part was the way the sauce envelopped the noodles. Pretty yummy!! Definitely built up in spiciness with the peppers. Everything was cooked deliciously, the server was attentive and friendly. Experience was great, just wish the host properly communicated with us in the beginning!

Came for a sit down with friends. We decided to split an order of wings, but I accidentally ordered the incorrect flavor. I was so sad but our server spoke to his manager and they gave us the flavor i meant to order. The service was amazing and the food incredible. Will definitely be coming back for the chill and fun vibe.

Got the buy 1 meal get second one free special. Did not come with veggies or bread like the menu read. When I complained about it the the waiter disagreed with me. Then I orders desert brownie with bailey iris cream. Guess what no iris cream. When the bartender finally brought it over it was a half a shot in a glass and told me to pour it on. When I got my coffee with it ,it was warm. Tasted old. I asked another bartender for sugar and she slammed the sugar container on the table. Never go back there ever.! sucks!

UPDATED REVIEW: I seriously love going to Fridays in Porter Ranch! Food and service are great. The manager, Yvonne, is very helpful and goes the extra mile to make customers feel welcome. While I'm not a "regular" anymore, they never forget me when I come in.

It had been years since I've been to this restaurant. I remember it being fun with good food. The 3 star rating should have been a warning to me but I was curious so I ventured on. 1) hostess never came to the front door. After waiting for a decent amount of time, I just went to the bar to put my order in. 2) ordered the sampler with shrimp, ribs and chicken. What I got was some ribs with hardly any meat on them. They were small and slim. A few pieces of shrimp and some chicken tenders in a whiskey sauce. I paid almost $30 for this. Didn't even finish my shrimp. They were soggy. Ambiance was chill, quiet with just a handful of people on the place and now I know why. Won't be going back. Well I might go back just to buy the whisky sauce but that's about it. Skip tho is place. It's not like it use to be and I'm sure they don't care like most food chains.

When I have a craving for Baby Back Pork Ribs.. I go here as I have yet to find another place that satisfies that deliciousness of pork ribs. I came here last week to have a nice meal in and left the place with a good batch of leftovers. The server was super friendly and attentive, taking care of any needs I had. I ordered the table-tizer, which comes with a wonderful array of delicious finger foods on a tray. It contains boneless wings, cheesy potato bites, and the classic mozzarella sticks with the most impressive cheese pulls. I got the barbeque flavored babyback ribs, full rack style, & was so full from the appetizers I only got to eat about 2 ribs. I brought the rest in a take-out box and was fulfilled the next day for lunch and dinner with the meal!

I'm not surprised this place has 2.5 stars. For about 7 years my wife and I stoped coming here because they served her some disgusting risotto. And now, I've been coming here for about 6 weeks, last night being the last time I eat here. So I always order the 8oz steak with broccoli, out of the six times I ordered it, they only cooked it right 2 times. Last night I brought my wife and we ordered the NY steak, we asked for it to be medium because that the way my wife likes it, well, it was med rare. We asked for them to cook it a little more and they did. The gentleman from the kitchen came and gave it to us, and I was just explaining to him the other occasions, THE BAR TENDER!! SOME HISPANIC CHICK WITH LONG HAIR! Jumps into the conversation I was having with the other guy, and she says "last time you said everything was good, that what you said" rudely and educated the young lady. Anyways, we thought we gave this place and second chance but after last night's experience, nah, with so many other good eateries around, this place would be my last choice. I see TGI Fridays disappearing in a couple of years, they're no competition in the area.

At 2:40 on Thursday August 14th at the Porter ranch location....I don't know what happened to TGIFridays but their food is nasty! I literally just paid and left my food on the table. I didn't even want to bring it home to my dog! I even told the waitress and she gave me attitude and rolled her eyes and walked away didn't even offer anything else or say sorry or nothing. Horrible customer service and horrible food!! I will not be going there ever again!!

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality and attentive service. Thanks to James, our server extraordinaire. He was incredibly friendly, checked in just the right amount without being overbearing, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout the meal. The food was fantastic, and the overall dining experience was smooth and enjoyable. But what truly elevated our visit was James--his professionalism and genuine care made us feel like VIPs. It's rare to find someone so passionate about what they do. Highly recommend this Fridays!

I had the Teacher appreciation shrimp scampi pasta dish. It was surprisingly good with lots of chicken and shrimp. I would definitely order it again. My colleague had the ribs with a side of rice. The ribs were falling off the bone and they were very delicious. Good service. Waitress brought us refills and checked in on us. Thank you so much TGIF for appreciating teachers!

Great service so far. Caesar salad is good. The dressing is not fishy. My drink was good but watermelon iceberg took too much of my drink. Casual, watching the eagles game. Oops forgot to take picture of my ribs with garlic broccoli, it was good

I recently visited TGIF and, unfortunately, had a very disappointing experience with the food. As soon as I ate, I had to rush to the restroom, which was extremely uncomfortable. The food had a bad aftertaste and left me feeling unwell. However, I must commend the waitress for her excellent service. She was attentive, friendly, and efficient, making the dining experience pleasant despite the food issues. It's unfortunate that the quality of the food overshadowed the great service. I hope TGIF addresses these concerns to improve their overall dining experience. Lastly the restrooms were gross and the booths were smelly. I want my refund.

Martha is the best!!!! She waited on us, took the order and doos came as ordered & expected. She was pleasant and welcoming.

The food was not handled and prepared correctly. Could it be they were busy or short staff? The burger want not cooked and seasoned correctly. The Pasta tasted differently and Thai salad was spiced up too much. No one checked the food before it was served? That was bad.

Updated 6-31-24 It wasn't busy at all. Got our table quick and fast. It took sometime to Oder. Food came good time. The table or waitress didn't give a1 sauce and more catch up. Had to go find some on an other table. They did give me more bbq sauce for my ribs. I don't know if there was low on staff. I wish they would check if we have everything we need for are food. Every table should have all the stuff you need for your food. People work here are nice. Would stop to eat here again.food was good hot.

Taylor was our server and she's the best I've ever had. Definitely coming back to see her.

Enjoyed my visit on last Friday, the bartenders, drinks, potato skins and wings were great! Great service and crowd at the bar.

All of the above . First they close late which I a kind of rare in this San Fernando Valley and the service was pretty awesome and the food was tasting great and ambiance is nice. Kudos keep the great work

I came in pretty late and when i was upfront no one walked up to me but suddenly Trevor which was multitasking cleaning tables for other costumers came up to me and my cousins right away. He was really respectful and he was making jokes all around we got along great. The food was really warm and in general tasted amazing. I will definitely be coming back to tgi fridays soon and thank you Trevor for the amazing service.

The food is okay! Some of the bartenders are friendly while others are rude at times. The main reason I go to tgif is that they're open late. If Island's was open late, I'd rather go there!!

Demi is the best server she brought the food and drinks so fast and the service was phenomenal and thank you Demi for the best service !!! I recommend asking for Demi!!!!!

I am making this review because of the amazing waiter I had tonight. Yanet from northridge/porter ranch went above and beyond with my table. She refilled my water without me needing to ask and was always quick on her feet. The food was also really good at a good price. Portions are very fair and alcohol is cheap here compared to other bars.

Honestly, I don't understand how TGI Fridays is still a thing. The quality of the food is terrible -- everything tasted overly processed, greasy, and just thrown together without any care. It felt like every bite was a heart attack waiting to happen. The service was mediocre at best; not rude, but definitely not friendly or attentive either. For the prices they charge, you'd expect at least decent food or a better experience, but it fell way short on both. There are so many better options out there -- I definitely won't be back.

We had a great time, Nedi the manager helped us with our app and some bill issues, she wasgreat. Don our waiter was very helpful and made sure everything was prepared correctly and that we were satisfied. Great food and a great staff, a very enjoyable place to eat.

My wife, and I decided to have lunch at this location on 3/27/24 at around 11:00 am. We both decided to get stuff from their "meal deals". I ordered the 6 oz sirloin and side (waitress then asked what 2 sides I wanted). My wife then requested for the "big rack" (waitress also asked for 2 sides). So I politely asked the waitress serving us if the meal came with fountain drink (even though it showed on the menu that it does). Waitress then replied to me by saying "NO they do not". So that caught me off guard. Why their menu would advertise it but not grant it. Here comes the interesting part to this, food took a while at approximately 30 mins. She then brought us our food, and first thing waitress said to me was "we had a change of menu that the 6 oz sirloin I ordered only comes with 1 side". Do keep in mind, I originally ordered 6 oz but the waitress was the one that said pick 2 sides. So she asked me "would you like to take this" so of course I just said yes because I didn't want them wasting the food and paid extra. My wife's order was good and for the price you can't complain. Now, when I asked for the bill and I noticed this waitress literally tried to over charge us for our order. Even my wife's $15.00 order she turned in to $30 to the point I asked her SHOW ME THE MENU but she wouldn't and gave me an attitude "well then let me speak to my manager" just to find herself looking like a fool with her own mistake. BE CAREFUL AND CHECK YOUR BILL BEFORE PAYING!!

Always great customer service, great food, good pricing. You can never go wrong with TGIF.

Tyler and Nancy never fail at making delicious and fun drinks for my wife and I. The drinks he makes are not usually on the menu but I just tell them what I'm feeling like drinking and here is there masterpiece

I have a lot of memories of TGI Fridays, both here and the since closed Warner Center location (where I met the Ladyfriend). Their appetizers, the Buffalo wings and Mozarella sticks still taste great after all of these years. I have taken to their salmon filet plate. Ditto the Ladyfriend, the drinks aren't watered down, and the service has always been great. I do miss the miss the days of Dan and Dave (IFYKYK) waaaay back in the day at the old Warner Center spot, but I enjoy this spot. Keep up the great work. Also, when I met the Ladyfriend on that fateful night, I remember Sinbad was trying to have a meal with his friends, and some drunk sat down at the table hoping to provide material to him. Aww the late 90's early 2000's what a time.

Love their happy hour. Drink are pretty strong and tasty. First time trying a Bloody Mary! Their food and service was prompt our server was friendly and the restaurant was nice. Had a great time catching the football game on a day full of errands. If you don't like to wait for a table sit at the bar.

Fridays is the same wherever you go, it's clean but it seems like it has a oily layer over everything. Prepare for a very basic & mid meal. We were seated quickly and we ordered drinks they showed up fast! The drinks were just ok, basic well drink or a premix, they were strong my enough. I ordered one of their Big Burgers the Philly. It said it had roast beef on a burger that had melted cheese and onions peppers with a egg roll skewer. I said, please hold the onions and peppers. She said no problem. Then she bring me this burger. She tells me it's all mixed in so they had to hold it all. Where is the roast beef?!? I wanted my cheese. I tried to eat it and it just taste like oily disappointment. If she would've communicated with me i would've ordered something different. This is exactly why I don't come here!

Came in around 4:00 yesterday afternoon for the first time in at least 10 years. We waited about 15 minutes for our waiter to bring one beer. He told us the bartender was super busy but when I saw the bar, there were only two people in there so basically he forgot to put our order in and blamed it on the bartender. When I asked him how the wings were cooked, he said they come frozen and already precooked. I realized later this was when we should've left. This was the most disgusting meal ever and I don't understand how this place is still open.

Every time I come to TGIF, I always have a great time. I usually come with my kids. I am greeted right away and the service is great. I do speak with the manager there Netty , she's great , if I need anything or if anything is wrong she takes care of it . I've been coming here for years and will continue too. Netty is a true example of good and honest work ethic . Evelyn S

Thank you miss angelica and the whole Friday's crew !! I appreciate the serves. Can't go wrong with Friday's on a Friday.

I haven't been here in years so it's good to be back. Sort of nostalgic. They have a lot of branding and partnerships with celebrities like Jamie Foxx etc. I ordered the chips and salsa, Caesar salad with salmon, and the chicken fajitas. This is how it was amazing, huge portion of the same always look perfectly! I didn't really like the salsa but the chips are hot and fresh. The toffee cake was amazing, lots of sugar so if you are not a sweet person do not get this. You could also order a shot of whiskey with it, I didnt but it was a pretty cool and fun idea. Our hostess was very nice, it wasn't that many people there but it was enough. Food a bit slow for what we ordered but you can tell they only had 1 cook so it's understandable.

Worst place ever! I came in there for some drinks and food and the waiter was being really rude and giving us bad customer service. I end up leaving the place and never got a chance to even try our meal just barely a beer because of the service.

I think his name was zane? The white dude that looks like the Lorax . He was absolutely amazing . Came in this afternoon to grab some grub with the family after watching Deadpool vs Wolverine. And Zane(I think )was our waiter . Maybe he looks like a Wolverine instead? Anyways the guy was really funny and friendly . Gave exceptional Service . Im a general manger at in simi valley and I myself would hire him on the spot for customer service alone. Food was decent . But his customer service was spot on

I am honestly SHOOKT at the low rated reviews... this place is literally awesome if you know how to take advantage of the great deals!! Always check their website for awesome deals and please SIGN UP for their rewards program and check your email for the deals they send you!! My all time favorite meal here is the sizzling steak and the loaded potato twists, but the wings are also fire. Their rewards program is honestly the best I've seen, and we have scored so many freebies through it. Also, members get FREE chips and salsa on EVERY VISIT. The current deal right now is on Fridays you get lobster and steak for 25$ and wings are 50 cents on Mondays. The servers are very nice and so is the manager. My only complaint would be the bathroom is not the cleanest and sometimes the tables and booths are not super clean.

Went into TGI with my family and had a great time. I ordered the wrong item and our server Azure helped us out. Would definitely recommend sitting in his section!

Always a great time with Tyler, Nancy and management Anything we want to enjoy they find a way to take care of my husband and I.

We love coming here! Happy hour is so good! I mean Titos on a happy hour menu.. yes, sign me up! And my favorite thing about this place is Demi! She is one of the best bartenders and takes the time to know you and banter with you! Love sitting at the bar with her! 5 stars!!!

First. This is a $8 side salad. What the F Second I'm Only here because there were 750 people in islands which is in same parking lot. No wonder the bar is empty ag 6pm On a Friday. The menu sucks the prices suck I haven't been In here in 15 years. Now I know why. I regret ever walking in the door $9 for a Modelo draft. No happy hour prices just a s hole I'll never be back to in my life.

For Fathers day the wait was not bad and the service was AMAZING! Our server was the sweetest and really attentive. My steak was great as was the trio (sliders, rack of ribs, and fries). I'm not sure if enough people know about this location but I will be spreading the word.
