TGI FRIDAY'S: Burnsville
My nephew graduated from St. Thomas and today I took him out for lunch at TGI Friday's. It was his call and he chose TGI Friday's. This is another sit down restaurant. The lunch crowd had pretty much vacated by the time we arrived. We got a booth. Naomi the waitress arrived early for our meal order, but we needed more time. I took the Tennessee BBQ sliders. These are two little hamburgers--think White Castle with more pizzazz. They maybe could make it three instead of two. Naomi asked if we wanted the drinks refilled (no) and if we had room for dessert (again no). The onion rings numbered about 8. I was hoping for more. Ice ruled the drink.
This was the first Monday, first meal over $10, and first time the food arrived over 20 minutes after we arrived.
