When did TGIFriday's become a family restaurant?

[sraun]

iraunink and I went to TGIFriday's to try the Endless Appetizer special. The clientele was not what I would have expected at 7-8pm on a Saturday night. I saw a fairly even age distribution - at least two families with small children, a number of couples of our age or older, and just about anything in between. The background music was not loud, and the TV was playing what appeared to be Little League championships. The bar area was well-lit and quiet. This is not the TGIFriday's I know!

For anyone who's interested in the special - it's a per-person 'pick AN appetizer and get an unlimited number of them' - you're welcome to share with other's doing the same thing'. Go with a group.

I do not know that I have ever been to TGI Fridays. I always assumed from the ads that it was just another Applebee's. (My opinion of Applebee's: Mostly inoffensive overpriced frozen entrees churned out by an underpaid staff that is not quite as bland as Chili's.)
