T.G.I. Friday's

The Promenade Cuisines: American

About

This famous New York East Side restaurant chain is credited for contributing to the popularity of American food in Shanghai. Like the other T.G.I. Friday's around the world, this one follows the Friday's formula in decor, menu and service. The decor is cheery and bright with some American kitsch thrown in for good measure. Like the decor, the English-speaking staff are friendly and cheery. Diners will find the food served up American style; burgers, sandwiches, steaks and salads are piled on plates in whopping sizes. Friday's has a great drinks list with a variety of innovative mixed drinks, cocktails and non-alcoholic beverages.
