Food was very tasty and filling as it is at every TGIF. That glaze sauce is phenomenal. Overpriced for sure, over £20 for a simple burger is slightly mad. Everything else was pretty bad about the experience and it’s down to this branch being understaffed. Servers were friendly and hard-working but they were drowning. Took 20 mins for our order to be taken and then another 45 mins for the food to arrive. It’s basically fast food, all the sauces are bottled, likely all the meat is frozen and reheated, so the delay was unacceptable. Also the issue of cleanliness. Restaurant wasn’t awful, but needed dusting. The toilets were shocking, doubt they were cleaned in the week before we visited. Hand soap dispenser broken, backup bottle of hand soap empty. The smell was ghastly.

We was visiting Edinburgh for a few days and popped into this TGI. We had a lovely waitress called Rebecca but the poor girl might as well of been running the restaurant by herself. I assumed the guy with long greasy hair was her manager but he spent most of his time at the till (where they cash up the meals) and chatting to customers than helping this girl. Not only was she tending to all the tables but she was behind the bar making drinks. Not once did this guy pull his finger out. Customers next to us walked in it after waiting over 40 mins for their drinks. I can understand if they are short staffed but teamwork should start with managers/supervisors. The 4 stars for service are for Rebecca because what a great member of staff they have in this hard working girl.

Steven and Rebecca were really attentive, help us out to order as we were struggling with the QR code order. The bar staff was nice and attentive, I did not catch his name. Drinks and food was good . Will be back next time I have a chance.

My partner, in-laws and I visited yesterday just for a drink. I’ve never had a bad experience before, I genuinely love going. Yesterday however wasn’t great. The person that greeted us at the door seemed not too happy we just wanted a couple of drinks. The man at the bar wasn’t exactly great either. He came over to ask what we would like while we were translating the menu. We asked for a couple of minutes. All seemed fine then after we didn’t know where he was but spotted a qr code for ordering drinks. We were just about to place our order when he came over so I explained we were ordering online. Our drinks were made but just left sitting on the bar and he disappeared. We didn’t know if we were allowed to just take them or if they were going to be brought to us. We noticed all other customers got service with a smile and stuff brought to them but us. so I asked someone else who was working. I would like to say he wasn’t the one originally serving us so he is not included in this bad service. He was genuinely so polite and so nice. He apologised and said he was new. I would honestly give him 5 stars. The other two I don’t know if it was just a bad day or what. I get it I work in hospitality we all have bad days but you can’t be like that towards customers. We were debating staying for food but after how the other two workers were we decided not to. I usually don’t like doing this but it wasn’t nice feeling so unwelcome or like a inconvenience to staff.

The women manager on the service for the deliveries have been Rude and disrespectful with the delivery Drivers as she was been asked to let them know how long do they need to wait for the order. Well she replied she can’t be divided or split in to 2 to tell the drivers how long they need to wait. I hope the director must take notice of this as everybody should be treated with respect no matter what. I highly appreciate the boy who was very calm and respectful in such a situation. Thanks

Went here to celebrate my birthday. Booked in advance via their website and when we reached the restaurant, it looks like abandoned from the outside, so we then hesitated to come in; but then we took a chance and dined in thinking there were no customers from the outside so the serving will be fast. We went in and found out there were decent amount of customers who are dining in. This could be improved by placing something from the window to welcome the customers. Please include prices on your website as well, this helps us plan our meals. Nonetheless, the food and the service were awesome. Kudos to our server, Jaya, for giving the best service! An asset to the company. She even gave us a free drink (she didn’t even know it was my birthday)

My wife and I came in for dinner on Monday, May 12, 2025, along with our newborn daughter. We were very poorly received by the staff, particularly by the waitress, who did not accommodate any of our requests regarding seating or assistance with our daughter’s dinner. The situation was so unpleasant that we were forced to leave. Terrible experience. Terrible staff.

TGI Fridays castle street has really lost its spark. Seems to be very disorganised, possibly due to lack of staff.

Long-time loyal customer disappointed by the current state I’ve been going to TGI Fridays since 2007 — mostly in London — and it used to be a place I genuinely loved. The food quality, the meat, the selection, the customization — everything was solid and enjoyable. From 2007 to around 2015, I went multiple times a year without fail. However, after 2015, changes started creeping in — clearly corporate-driven design choices and shifts that began to erode the overall experience. Since then, I’ve only gone occasionally, hoping for improvement. This week, I gave the Edinburgh location a last chance, and honestly, it was the worst visit I’ve had. Food quality has dropped dramatically, the drink options are worse than ever (you’re now limited to only diet and zero versions if you want refills), and customization is gone — you just get what you’re given. The service was purely transactional — just taking the order, bringing the food, and handing the bill — completely missing the upbeat, engaging American-style experience that used to define Fridays. On top of that, the cleanliness was shocking. Bathrooms were filthy, no soap, no attention to hygiene. The place felt abandoned — stains on walls and columns, worn-out furniture, a general air of neglect. Not what you expect from what used to be a flagship brand. To be fair, maybe this is just the Edinburgh branch. But even friends of mine — who used to go regularly — have stopped going altogether. I was the last one who still occasionally suggested it, but now even I’ve given up. It seems like Fridays has lost touch with the customers that once made it popular. Maybe some new guests don’t realize how much the experience has declined. But the loyal, long-term customers — you’ve already lost most of us. If anyone from the company reads this, I hope it serves.

Honestly, this was one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had. As someone with an AP Graduate degree in Service, Hospitality, and Tourism Management—and with the 11 others at the table having the same qualifications and experience—I believe I am coming from an informed perspective when I say this. From waiting almost an hour to place our order (to be fair, we were a large group, some arrived late, and others decided not to show up) to having to ask twice for an extra plate, which we never received, it was disappointing. In the end, we had to use a plate from someone else at the table to share a burger. Furthermore, not all the items we ordered were delivered. Perhaps it was just an off day for the restaurant—these things can happen—but even the service left much to be desired. The waitstaff didn’t seem attentive or welcoming, and as a group, we unanimously agreed that we would not return. Word of mouth is crucial for any business, and unfortunately, this experience did not leave us with anything positive to share. That said, I would like to commend the young man in the white t-shirt, who I believe was on his first shift (though I’m not certain). He was incredibly kind and did his best to make the experience better. A big applause to him for his efforts. I truly hope this was a one-off situation and that we were just very unlucky.

The smashed burgers we ordered were grilled to the point where they were almost burnt. We asked for replacement as they were hardly edible. The waitress replaced our burgers & apologised. There looked to be not enough staff working there as we needed to wait for more than 30 mins for our food to arrive and we needed to chase the waiters all the time, even when asking for the bill.

Booked a table at 6:30pm, and when we arrived early we were offered a drink at the bar, and seated promptly and with a smile as soon as a table became available (about 5/10 minutes prior to our booking time which was amazing) Rhys was our server, and he was really attentive and service with positivity was his focus even though it was apparent the restaurant was heaving! He also made sure that we had plenty of drinks and kept checking in which was wonderful considering we were taking advantage of the £5 cocktail deal that was on!!! For starters, I ordered Mozzarella Dippers and my friends ordered Nachos with Pulled Pork and a Boneless Hot Wings, all of which arrived much faster than we expected and tasted absolutely delicious! Our mains arrived moments after we finished our starters, and Rhys came round to check in with whether we needed more drinks, sauces and if our food was good, which it was! The fajitas were seasoned perfectly and were piping hot on arrival and my friend’s Ultimate American Grill was cooked to perfection!!! As we were all completely stuffed from our starters and mains, we opted for the kids desserts as a little sweet treat! They’re actually great value for money, and great for a small dessert if you want something sweet but are already stuffed! And it wouldn’t be a complete review without a shoutout to the bartender Ross! Without him, our night would have been incomplete. His drinks were absolutely amazing, and he started our night off right at the bar with questions about what sort of drinks we liked and made sure we were aware of what cocktails were in the £5 deal so we got the best offers! Would 100% come back again!

Called in on a day trip as have eaten in other TGI's around the world and was excited to try Edinburghs take on it ... disappointing is all I can say . No atmosphere just blah .. we ended up just getting the wings to share and it was basically just a pk of wings pre bought or frozen or some other crap deep fried and it was meant to have their signature hot wings sauce with blue cheese dip it was not good ! Ordered Guinness and a cocktail . The server was a lovely girl but not a bar tender she did her best to make it look like it was suppose too but she confessed she's a bar tender . The cocktail was just a slush with no alcohol and very watered down flavouring . In fact our server was the waitress the main meet and greet and also the bar tender maybeeeee she was the chef too ! Never seen another soul ... so on this experience it has too be a definite won't be back. And had the cheek to charge £28.50 even though I complaint about the cocktail and never drank it !

Booked a table for my husband and myself hoping for a nice meal and a great evening after a day out - got seated and then just sat there for over 20 minutes, not that it was majorly busy - but nobody turned up to even take our drink order - so we got up and left. Wanting to charge 25 quid for a main but completely ignore customers - absolute joke. Would've given zero stars if possible. P.s. menu was absolutely minging just like the table, dirty and sticky, yuck.

Walked in here just a short while ago and was sat down by the 'host' (female, dressed in black with dark hair in a ponytail)....she said she'd get us some menus and then nothing. Multiple staff walking past us. No one even interested in taking a drinks order or anything. We waited over 10 mins. Eventually, as we put our jackets on, we were approached and asked if we were waiting for anything. We quickly explained we were waiting on menus, etc but that we had decided to abandon eating here due to the atrocious service. Now sat down ordering elsewhere. Simply appalling.

Food quality has gone massively downhill since tge takeover last year. It would be fine for a cheap takeaway, but it falls massively short of the price being charged. Coctails were also not as advertised and not worth the money. Service was friendly but the low staff levels (presumably to save money) meant it was very slow. You could tell they were over stretched.

Unfortunately, my visit to TGI Fridays in Edinburgh was disappointing. The floor was sticky, and the toilets were in an unhygienic state—both of which are unacceptable. While the staff was friendly, the service was very slow, which further worsened the overall experience. Overall, I found the price-to-quality ratio to be poor.

Probably one of the worst places I've ate at in a while. Was eventually seated after standing for ages in reception and shown to a table. Waited at least another 20 minutes until we called a waitress over to order some drinks. 15 me later the drinks arrived and my pint of lager was watered down with lemonade. I took this to the bar and this was confirmed by the barman who said he'd send another pint over to my table. Another 20 minutes past and we'd still had no food serve by this point a waitress broke me over my new pint. First inspection looked good but when drunk it was a complete flat disappointment to be Payton 6.50 for it.

Very disappointed with our experience. Value for money very poor also. After getting assigned our seats we had to ask 15 minutes later to order our food. We ordered drinks with ice and water for the table- we had to go up to the bar to get our water and ice. When we ordered our food we were eventually handed it 47 minutes later the burgers were tiny portions would have fed a small child and were also burnt and fries were cold. Mac and cheese with pulled pork was served without the pork and when we questioned this we were given attitude from the staff who turned around and walked away from us. Had to ask for tables to be cleared also. I would understand if the restaurant was busy but it wasn't. If I could give 0 stars I would.

I am very disappointed with my experience at this restaurant! Arrived and was greeted by a lovely man whom we never seen again, asked to sit at the bar and ask for 3 cocktails told we couldn't have one yet the person across from me was drinking them? Got our seat after 10 or so minutes. Had to ask a passing by waiter could we order to which she shouted across the restaurant to another girl 'they want order' food eventually arrived 50 minutes later. We asked for ice, to which we never received it, and had to get from the bar ourselves. To which the two burgers were burnt, the chips were cold, and the mac and cheese we ordered arrived without the pulled pork, by the time it eventually arrived the pasta dish arrived and the waiter was extremely rude when we pointed this out by saying 'I don't know anything about this I'm just dropping it down'. We paid £85 for 3 main courses and a bottle of prosecco. When we were converting our payments from € to £ the waiter shouted 'well shit' we had 4 different waiters which was very confusing and slightly odd if we wanted to tip a waiter we couldn't even though we wouldn't after our experience. Overall very rude staff not many people there and no tables being cleaned average burnt food won't be back

Has multiple vegan options for each course. The Christmas meal deal was £22 for a starter and a main off a set menu, which was decent value for city centre prices. Went for the plant based potato skins, it had plenty of melted vegan applewood cheese, vegan bacon, spring onions and came with an ok guacamole sauce on the side. They were filling for a starter. For mains went with the vegan Christmas burger, but when it came out it was only the “normal” vegan burger, not the one off the Christmas menu with the chilli jam and cranberry sauce. Burger was nice, had lots of veg and vegan cheese was melted, but came out late and was cold. Service was slow but it was a busy lunch service on a Saturday in December so to be somewhat expected. Other vegan options on the menu include vegan chicken wings, vegan nachos, vegan pecan pie among more; lots of plant based options on the menu and were clearly highlighted too which was appreciated. Handy for a decent meal, has a full bar and plenty of drink options.

They forgot our drinks. Came only after request. The place was unclean. There were still old leftover food under the next table. The stairs up to the restrooms were totally dirty. My ribs were dry and the fries were soggy. The side salad (maybe a spoonful) was unsightly and tasted of nothing.

This has only got one star because I couldn’t give a zero. We sat down and no one came to take our order for over half an hour. Eventually ordered and it took 15 minutes for our drinks to come. Starters came and they forgot one. Mains came cold. Bill came and we were over charged, got it redone and it was still wrong. The floor was so sticky our seats stuck to it. Overall bad vibes. slay.

It was the only place near Princes Street, open after 9pm (that I could find) on a Friday night!! Was really good value as I had £25 off the entire order (spent over £100). The waitress was very helpful and deserved a tip. The big boy dinner (meat feast) was massive and worth the money. Good cocktails.

My partner & I visited the Edinburgh TGI Fridays today and was disappointed by the unwelcoming staff and cold atmosphere. The staff seemed disinterested not even a hello when we were seated, and the overall vibe was lackluster regardless of the overwhelming tinsel. To make matters worse, the ladies' toilet had a broken seat, which is unacceptable. Overall, this location didn’t meet the usual TGI Fridays standards and we left before ordering.

Service was very slow however the girl was nice but food in my opinion is over priced for what you get! A wee bit more of an effort food wise and it would be good! 2 adults 3 kids and 1 child had chips and bill was £160 for 2 starters 3 mains a kids meal and some drinks!

Chocolate fudge fixation promised alot but delivered relatively little. Tasted great but far from a sharing plate. I expected more from a desert costing more than £10.

Review for Rustom Rustom is an extraordinary dining experience that captures the essence of contemporary cuisine while celebrating rich culinary traditions. From the moment you step inside, the ambiance is warm and inviting, blending modern decor with touches of authenticity that reflect its heritage. The menu is a delightful fusion of flavors, showcasing a variety of dishes that are both innovative and comforting. I highly recommend starting with the small plates; the spiced kebabs are a must-try, perfectly marinated and grilled to perfection. For the main course, the signature biryani is nothing short of exceptional—flavorful, aromatic, and served with a side of raita that balances the spices beautifully. The service at Rustom is impeccable. The staff is attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about the food they serve. They are eager to offer recommendations and ensure that your dining experience is nothing less than perfect. To top it all off, don’t miss the dessert menu! The saffron-infused ice cream is a delightful conclusion to an already stellar meal. Overall, Rustom stands out not only for its exquisite food but also for its commitment to creating a memorable dining experience. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just looking to enjoy a fantastic meal, Rustom is a must-visit. I can't wait to return!

The night I went, none of the waiters spoke Spanish (not a big deal, either). I ordered some "Colombian" empanadas. Besides, they were poorly fried, had no potatoes or stew, were just meat, and didn't taste good. Besides, they were very expensive for what they are. The music was great.

"I recently visited the Baskin Robbins, and overall, it was a pretty good experience. and he was friendly and patient as I decided from the many flavours. I ended up choosing the Mississippi Mud and it was delicious – creamy and just the right amount of chocolate. However, the quality of the ice cream and the service made it worth it.
