TGI Friday’s Diner

The tourist trap of Leicester square attracts tourists in full force and TGI Friday’s is one of those venues who pulls the most business from them. The overly cheery, americanised staff in the foyer, greet and drag you off into the depths of this large, multi platform, tiered restaurant that places a bar in the centre of the room and booths and long tables around the outside. The menu sounds interesting enough with a lot on offer but at inflated prices but when the food comes out it is disappointing, fried and overdone and in portions which are too large to stomach, it feels like the kitchen staff put no passion into the food and this must be true - serving up the same dishes year after year as they have done, but the Jack Daniels sauce remains a favourite.

Overall this particular member of the american diner chain puts on a big smile for a dying format that perhaps tourists respond to but forget having a work lunch here - disappointment reigns true when there are fifty places up the road that better this place in every department except for the waitresses desperation for a tip - 3/10
