    Breakfast Menu - August 2025
    Jim B.

    It was good. We don't normally choose TGI Fridays when we eat at DFW before a flight, but this one was close to our gate. The hostess greeted us with a smile and escorted us to a booth. Our server was by immediately. We ordered coffees and waters and we shared the Bacon Cheddar Cheese Omelet for breakfast this morning. Our server keyed our meal in as Split, so the kitchen split our meal into 2 plates at no extra cost loved that. So our breakfast and service was good. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were seated in a large booth by the kitchen and it was real loud from pans banging. Dishes clanging and some breakage plus some loud yelling.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Chicken strips and fries
    Karen C.

    I had a flight delay so I had time for a sit down lunch. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant was busy but was able to get a seat along the side hallway.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] My waitress was attentive and gave me time to look over the menu. I ordered the chicken stripe with fries. I said no seasoning on the fries and they came out perfect. A very large portion too. A very nice meal at the airport.

    nothing specific with a TGIF but i wanted some fried food and this was the spot. a lot of it was pretty bland but crunchy so i got what i wanted, i guess. only reason this place gets stars is for their service. i was seated super quickly and my server was super attentive and kind.

    At DFW to catch our flight and right down from the gate is TGIF and just about the only thing open. Were shown to a table and my Wife and I ordered the same thing - "BACON & Cheddar Cheese Omelet" - 3-Egg Omelet with seasoned Country Potatoes and Toast with Jelly. [[HIGHLIGHT]]At 7am in the morning this place is busy - and our Omelets arrived and they look delicious.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Lots of Cheeeeeeese in there and love the seasoning - this was Omeletliciousness. The seasoned Potatoes are also Very Good and lots of them. My Wife and I have our bellies full and are both Very Happy. Megan was our Server and earned the "Dollar-Bow-Tie" Award. Even as busy as they were, she took the time to check on us and chat.

    Chicken and waffles

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]As a quick stop for a meal and rest this spot was just what we needed.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our bartender/waitress was sweet and attentive and even though there was a long wait to get it, once we were seated the food came quickly. The foods okay, it's just TGIF I wasn't expecting anything gourmet, the espresso martini was delightful though and felt very worth the $12. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I think this is one of the smaller TGIFs in the airport so if you're with a bigger party I would choose a different location.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Steak and eggs
    Joshua D.

    Had time before our next flight to have breakfast in the Dallas/ ft. Worth airport. After a short walk we found TGI Fridays that was open and seating available. Our server quickly took our drink order and was able to have a nice table to people watch while we waited for our meal. TGI Fridays had several breakfast options and went with the French toast and steak and eggs. French toast was a little undercooked for one of them but overall good. Steak and eggs were seasoned as expected and a decent portion for the price. Tables were quickly cleaned as customers were also looking for a meal between flights. Overall a good experience for the amount of time between flights. Would come back in the near future for other connecting flights.

    Stopped at my favorite spot during my layover in Dallas Fort Worth--TGI Fridays! I'm still heartbroken they closed all the locations in Northern California, so getting to enjoy it here felt like a nostalgic treat. The food was everything--that Jack Daniel's sauce is STILL undefeated. Please consider bringing a location back to NorCal. We miss it more than you know! Thanks for the great experience, as always.

    We stopped in to get a few things to munch on before our flight. We had 2 hours to kill, so they seemed like a great place to eat. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We were sat quickly and it was super chill inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered an appetizer "fan favorite" with cheese sticks, wings, potato wedges and got some fries on the side. I got to try the broccoli cheese soup which was killer, it was really good! We had 2 adult drinks, the henny strawberry & sangria which are both "fan favorites"! Over all, we had a blast!! [[HIGHLIGHT]]It gets crowded so make sure you get there early before rush hour![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Side salad with ranch dressing.
    Melanie S.

    By Gate C7. I came in here at 9pm, and had until 10 to get food and beverages. The hostess sat me right away (lucky, because it's one of the few open places that have both food and drink). My server Jason said Hi immediately and that he'd be right with me. The two other servers in here were similarly responsive as I saw others sat, both ladies never stopped moving and were friendly and professional with their tables like Jason was with me. My first choice drink was out, but my server recommended a replacement. Ordered the southern chicken sandwich with a side salad. Salad was... a salad salad. Lol. No complaints. The chicken sandwich was great. Light and crispy outside, moist inside. The avocado was sooo creamy and good. It hit the spot, and I was finished by 9:45. I ONLY took a star off because of the design. It's a shotgun straight through, and you KNOW so many travelers have their giant roller bags clogging up the walkway. And I've been backed up into by the inconsiderate people sitting at the table behind me. It just needs more room. It's been a long day, I'm happy to get tasty food quickly with a friendly staff.

    potatoes were the bomb
    Eduardo S.

    One of the best breakfasts I've ever had. Stellar potatoes. Great bacon and great service.

    Reasonable for a delicious breakfast
    Kris F.

    Great food - always hard to cut a steak with a plastic knife but I did it and it was delicious! The service was terrible - my waitress went home and the other server didn't want to refill my coffee! But hey - I get that you not gettin the tip. Fast service - good food.

    Sampler of fried shrimp, Spicey shrimp, and ribs
    Eugene G.

    I was flying through DFW this week and right across from my gate in terminal C was a TGI Fridays so I thought I would pop in for dinner. unfortunately, the only thing that was good on the sampler of shrimp and ribs were the ribs. The ribs were moist, delicious flavorful, and very good though not so much the shrimp. Service was excellent!

    Grilled chicken burger
    Rosita L.

    Went here during our transit in Dallas airport and ordered a grilled chicken burger and cobb salad. Salad: looks pretty big and has many things on it. Love the freshness but they could soak the onion in cold water for a bit to reduce the bite of the onions. I went on a flight with onion breath Burger: buns a little too sweet for me but I love the avocado they included in the burger. Overall it was a nice service, good salad, but the grilled chicken texture is weird..... maybe almost like a rubber? It's not too bad considering we're in an airport.

    TGI Fridays Signature Bloody Mary. Pairs well with the wing sampler and some ibuprofen.

    Taylor at Rowdy Cowboy is exactly what great service is supposed to look like. She's sharp,…read morequick-witted, and actually pays attention to what's going on around her--something that clearly isn't consistent across the rest of the floor. While other servers seemed more focused on socializing with regulars than doing their jobs, Taylor stood out immediately. She stayed engaged, checked in at the right times, and made sure everything was handled without needing to be asked twice. That's not luck--that's professionalism. She brings a mix of intelligence and humor that makes the experience better without being forced or over the top. More importantly, she executes. Orders are right, timing is right, and the overall experience feels intentional--not neglected. If you're going to Rowdy Cowboy, don't leave it to chance. Ask for Taylor by name. She's an asset to that place, and based on what I saw, she's setting a standard others there aren't meeting

It's…read moreactually a very fun experience, as long as you don't bring your significant other or care about food. My Overall Rating - 3 1/2 Stars (5 Stars if you only care about service) Atmosphere - It's pretty electric. There is a large bar in the middle, tons of bar seating, and during my Thursday visit for lunch, it was packed. The vibes are good, and tons of TVs are showing sports. If you have an XY chromosome, this is your place. 1 Star. Service - Rowdy Cowboy is known for having great servers who are very friendly (and nice to look at). All tables were taken, so I sat at the bar. The bartenders were fast, efficient, and very friendly. They got my order wrong, but I don't care. Their friendliness made me not care. 1 Star. Food - Look, if you're here, you're not here for the food. I started with the Steak Frites. The steak was super tender but lacked seasoning. The shoestring fries were awesome and made the perfect pairing to the steak. I ordered the Brisket Sliders but ended up with Wagyu Sliders. I didn't mind because our bartenders were so friendly, but the sliders were just ok. Remember, this place is not known for the food. 1/2 Star. Will I Return? - Yes. Rowdy Cowboy knows exactly what it does well, and believe me it does it well. In fact, out of all the restaurants in this genre, Rowdy Cowboy has the friendliest staff. Yes, I will be back. 1 Star.

DFW is massive. My friend was 30 mins late, but I wasn't trippin. I used that time to charge my phone and get a little work done. We didn't have a resy, but were seated right away. First of all, this place is massive. We both started with the espresso martini before realizing they had a happy hour menu. Our second drink was from the hh menu even though we had no business having a second cocktail. To start, we shared the fried green tomatoes. For whatever reason, we both ended up getting the western burger. Food was great. There was so much of it that I was only able to finish half and ended up taking the rest home. Great service as well. The place was crowded by the time we left. We only planned to stay for 45 minutes, but ended up staying for nearly 2 hours. Big thanks to the bartender. I went back to the airport a little tipsy after 2 drinks.

Clearly a popular spot. We shared an appetizer, a steak, sides, and a dessert between us 3. - Fried Tomatoes (appetizer): not bad! Light, not greasy at all, and that savory sauce on top was yummy: - Wagyu Tomahawk: the star of the show. Loved the peppered crust which was full of flavor. Not a true "Japanese wagyu" texture, but still an excellent steak overall. - Sides (mashed potatoes, fries, broccolini, cornbread): All pretty good across the board. I liked the cornbread the most and wished there was more of it. Usually a side of cornbread is much more substantial and comes with honey butter. - Steak sauce: we ask for a side of this. Whatever they had was unique and great. Fruity and tangy, a great complement to the tomahawk. - Pecan Pie: look at the photo! A huge, tall slice. No notes. Loved the dense ice cream on top. Perfect way to end the meal. Overall: no critiques, just an all-around great dinner. Definitely recommend the tomahawk and pie.

Four hours is a long time to sit in one place, especially in a busy airport like DFW, yet the team was consistently attentive despite the hectic environment. They checked in regularly and shared just enough of their own stories to make the time enjoyable. Never too much, always just right.
