Friendly's Royal Palm Beach, Fl

I'm starting to think that Friendly's, might just be one of the best kept secrets for going out on a Friday night.  We've been several times, and each time there is no wait, good service, pretty good food and best of all not that pricey!

As parents of 2 little ones, when we have a chance to go out as just a couple, we try to take it.  Most of the time, we don't have time to wait 45 minutes to an hour for an open table at a restaurant.  Being able to sit down right away, with out a reservation is awesome.

For starters, we split an appetizer combo, which we got with chicken quesadilla's, mozzarella sticks and loaded waffle fries.  This seriously could have been a meal all on its own, there was a pretty good portion of food on this plate. I had the roasted turkey dinner, which comes with stuffing, corn, mashed potato's & gravy and garlic bread.  Although it was a little salty, it was still quite tasty and they really don't skimp on the portion size.

The wifey had the fish and chips, which she described in exquisite detail as "yummy".  She also ordered from the "4 for More" section.  This allows you to add your drink and a 3 scoop-2 topping sundae for only $4 more.  Considering a drink is like $2+ and the sundae is about $3, it's not a bad deal.

The food overall isn't what you might call "gourmet", but it is tasty and filling and we like it.

The service was good, though it did start getting a little slower near the end of our meal.  Also, though I didn't have a first hand experience, the wifey said the bathrooms were really pretty and clean.  Though I think that might be a girl thing :D

All in all we would definitely go back, but it should be noted that this is a "Dry" establishment (no alcoholic drinks)
