TGI Friday's - Santa Cruz

We ordered a vegetable salad and beef steak at this restaurant. The outdoor seating area had a nice ambiance. The service was good, and there was plenty of parking available.

In one word: Mojito. My friends and I always return to this restaurant for their mojitos. We're not sure why, but we love them. We also order Nachos, Fries, Chips, and whatever else catches our eye on the menu. It can be a bit pricey, but the staff is friendly. It's a great spot to hang out, have drinks, and watch sports playoffs with friends.

During our overnight stay in the area, we decided to have lunch at our local TGIF. The meal did not disappoint. We initially ordered a large portion of Nachos, but were pleasantly surprised to find out that they were complimentary for guests. The Nachos were crunchy and delicious. The pepperoni Pizza was excellent and the creamy tomato pasta was also tasty. The Baby back ribs with Jack Daniel's sauce lacked some flavor, the Caesar salad was a bit spicy, but the nachos we had ordered were perfect. To finish off our meal, the Choco Lava Dessert was a perfect choice. We were able to enjoy senior discounts and the staff was courteous and helpful. Overall, TGIF is always a wonderful place to dine in its location.

I've always been a fan of TGI Fridays. From the time it opened its first branch in Makati, I tried all TGI Fridays where I can be. The restaurant changed its ambience from a pub to a more family-friendly restaurant, but its...food and service in general never changed. We decided to try this industry in Solenad (Ayala Mall). My friends and I ordered to share food Fajitas, Kater Burger, shrimp and chicken... and they all tasted salty and a bit bitter, which we couldn't explain. We have tried to clean our pallet so that we would not mix the taste, but water will not be refilled and we need to ask the staff three times and again you need to repeat it three times to ask again for a refill. I know TGI Fridays for a very warm and good service and food you always want. Here too, not all TGI Fridays are the same. For my love for the restaurant name, I'll be average rate. Some other branches serve better.

I’ve tried a few TGI Friday’s in the Philippines now and the food is usually of good quality but the staff always let the experience down. We had a nice meal although the drinks didn’t arrive until after the main courses had arrived! For the...third time running I ordered a brownie WITHOUT NUTS and it arrived with nuts and had to be sent back. The waitress then thought it was ok to just scrape all the nuts off and bring it out again. All in all my experiences of TGI Friday’s in the Philippines are pricey but quality food accompanied by useless staff.
