Friends have always been a go to place after a long late night shift. The waitresses sometimes can be a little cranky. It adds the New York ambience, which I dearly miss.
The food is mostly comfort food. There's a wide variety on the menu, so everyone can find something they want. The desert case is always a temptation. The food is so plentiful that I never have room for the deserts, though I often take something home.
I recommend Friends for after the bars close or an evening out at the theater. It is one of the few places opened after a show at Playhouse Square.
It's a nice comfy place full of comfort food.
