TGI Friday’s

I’m actually pretty surprised at the low reviews that everyone else has given. I’ve eaten at this restaurant at least a dozen times since I moved to the area and don’t share any of the same complaints as the others.
The sesame jack chicken strips are amazing. The boneless bites are amazing. The beef nachos, the pork ribs, the burgers, the sizzling chicken, the fajitas, the sweet potato fries — they’re all amazing. I’ve only tried one thing in the menu I didn’t like and that was the Cajun chicken penne, which I thought was flavourless.
Ok, ok so the prices are marked up compared to the U.S., but that’s pretty much Dublin in a nutshell. It’s certainly not specific to TGIFRIDAYS.
Overall, it’s been a positive experience 90% of the time with lack of attentiveness being my #1 complaint when the restaurant is completely full. Just go at non-​peak times and you’re sorted.

We wanted dinner the night before we left Dublin and this place was close to our hotel. Being familiar with the chain in the USA we figured «why not?»
We actually enjoyed our visit, beer and dinner much better than the TGI Fridays in the USA because it wasn’t LOUD and boisterous inside.
The service was prompt, quick and friendly.
The only «issue» would be the marked up prices here due to its vicinity of Dublin Airport. It seemed the prices were MUCH higher than what we have experienced in the past and when you conver the $ to Euro, it was definitely way more expensive than a stateside TGIF.
