| - This along with Dianna's is where you eat pre-show or pre-bar, or late at night after you've been out boozing. (Although you can eat in either place during the day too, as I have with senior citizen relatives of mine.) I tend to prefer Dianna's as having the better service, slightly more extensive food offerings,and a parking lot that's easier to navigate when you're tired, but My Friends is also OK and I have just as many pals who like My Friends better than Dianna's so the two are kind of interchangeable in my mind and way better than a chain restaurant.
In particular, if you're looking for dessert, My Friends is the one with the big, impressive dessert case full of great big fancy cakes and pies staring you in the face when you walk in. It's really nifty-looking and has the desired effect of making me hungry for cake or pie, but if you're dieting you may want to walk real fast or go somewhere else :-)
Service experiences we've had here range from good to awful. One time my mom ordered some applesauce and found broken glass in it (!), apparently from some kitchen mishap. That seems to have been an isolated incident though. More often we have had trouble with having to ask for some menu item or condiment that was supposed to come with the food and they forgot it. They will straighten it out for you but sometimes it takes a couple of tries. Once you do get what you ordered, it's generally pretty good to eat.
The location is busy and pretty safe even late at night. I'd recommend parking in the back lot and not on the street where you run more risk of a parking ticket.
