    Our server was excellent! Good food, good ambience. Loved the playing of classic films from the 1930s on the big screen TV. Much better than sports!

    Hair was in my salad, so my server brought another one for me. I felt disgusted, but they immediately took care of it. I would go there again, but not salad. Overall, service was good. Calamari and Chai tea were great!

    Ted bulletin never disappoints. The food is always fresh. The salads are crunchy and the weight staff is just beyond belief.

    Teds had a good vibe, a really nice area as well. I got the chicken & waffles it was alright but most certainly not worth $23, pieces of chicken were small and under seasoned, waffle was just your basic waffle you can make for breakfast at a hotel with the waffle maker. Our waitress Sabrina was great, you could tell she seemed pretty stressed and overwhelmed but still managed to provide great services so props to her for that.

    All the food was swimming in a pool of oil. I got the sea bass and had to send it back since it was so oily and had so many fish bones! Steak was chewy as well but was cooked medium rare as I ordered.

    They served my 7- yr old pancakes with Hot Honey (spicy) syrup which as you can imagine went very poorly when he took a big bite smothered in syrup. After complaint they made him new one but no one in management came over to apologize for a pretty big mess-up, and I watched the server tell them about it. Used to love this place but really gone down hill in quality.
