Anyway, i haved a worst customer services experience with it at TGI Friday Penang. The services is real bad, the manager also seem like not educated at all when handling customer. I’m so disapointed with the them as one of the most popular restaurant now in Malaysia.

not been there,yet..but i’ve heard loads bout it…considering it’s still new n all,n that it’s a busy place(or so i’ve heard..),d’bad-service’is(not 2 say expected,no..!)but if a guest is wiling 2 wait although they could see that it’s 1 heck of a fast-paced restaurant,n that the servers r tryin their best 2 serve you all they could,y not accept it as it is instead of complaining non-stop?put yourself in their shoe s they tried 2 put themself in yours..this is s far s as i’m concern..i’ve once been a server,n i do know how this people feel everytime they have face a guest who demands things from a server who simply wasn’t trained 2 do..cheers!!xxx

TGIF is good.. but there are some hostess that dunno how 2 respect guest… theirs smile is fake n as if they dun like our presence there.. There was 1 indian gurl with long straight hair.. She behaves as though she is uneasy working there.. n she doesnt care abt the guest.. Jz standing at the main entrance n chit chatting n dun even bother abt the guest that is coming in.. That gurl should be given more training.. Plz do that.. other than that,TGIF is a wonderful dining place..

I used to be a server at a restaurant and we had to not only work hard to serve the guests with good service which was required of us but we had to do it in a fast paced environment which is always busy so undoubtedly to some guests it would seem like we were not giving the service they are expecting but trust me when I say that we were and still are trying our best to give our guests whatever they request and the guests shld put themselves in the servers shoes and see if they can perform what the servers are doing and having fun at the same time. Once the guests who complain have done so then they would see that the servers at all fast paced restaurants are trying their best to do their jobs and to make their guests happy.

hi..TGIF is a great place.. i admire the waitresses n waiters there but unfortunately there are some waiters who i feel can ruin the image of the other servers as well as TGIF. I came across a waiter avinesh if im not mistaken.his mobile was ringing when he was serving me and after placing the food on the table he immediately grabbed his mobile and attended the call.i din mind but for some fussy guest that might be a disgrace to them.i suggest TGIF should not allow their waiters to use mobile phones during work hours. i also suggest that TGIF managers should also personally call up the servers who use mobile phones during working hours and give them some advice so that in future TGIF wont be facing such problems. Maybe the servers could put their mobile phones in the vibration mode and answer it in case of emergency. All the best TGIF!!!

Vkeong - How U know the food is halal?
there is no HALAL CERTIFIED LOGO’s .
Dont simply mention halal .

But as information given by them.
No Pork n the meat buy from
POK Brothers where i still looking & Searching the status HALAL
for this POK Brothers - > Not found yet the Status halal
But another source from DINDINGS — HALAL

HALAL - Its not just mean no PORK. or No ALCOHOL
We also Looking the Source of the MEat.
The Procedure of Sembelih following Hukum .
The Cooking Stuff that Used is FREE from Used for Cooking NON-HALAL Food

If its serving HALAL food by right Should Register with HALAL Malaysia.
then its fine for Muslim’s to go there .

How can you say HALAL if they still served alcohol drinks or steak with wine in it? This is a pub, not like normal restaurant. Even if they claimed on having a huge HALAL LOGO there, it is still not right.

As a muslim, we are very skeptical and being sensitive on what we eat.

Every dishes, tools, even the pan that they use to prepare their food contains non-halal ingredients, it still consider non-halal. So please, don’t confuse your muslim friends by simply declare “Halal” openly while you-yourself still have no idea what HALAL means for muslims.

vk: What about hiring muslims to work in a pub? Is that OK?

Especially to Ahmad boi….

hey…i guess u guys need to become vegetarian…keep talking bout HALAL or nt…f tht…some of the muslim guest also dnt care, they still drink (proudly say they are muslim)…remember…u noe there are no HALAL sign then no nid go in la…remember TGI FRIDAYs’ is an American based restaurant…

then hw bout those smoker…the cigaratte box also dun hav any HALAL logo there…bt hw come still smoke…

call urself vegetarian next time…so no worries at all…cheerz
