Food and service were really good as always. A bit noisy on a Monday night (Labor Day) but not nearly as bad as my last visit on a Sunday night with lots of families and noisy kids. I would eat here only at lunch except that their country-fried steak is only available at dinner.

Excellent food at reasonable prices. Try the meatloaf!

Ted's Bulletin always has innovative and tasty food and cocktails to offer. According to my non-vegetarian friends, the meat serving sizes were a bit small, but I had no complaints about the salad and side dishes. The bar area is still my favorite, though I am pre-disposed to the quaint, old-timey look.

Great service and milkshakes! The head chef brought us our food because the restuarant was very busy, which speaks to the teamwork involved at the restaurant. Very friendly, nice music, but too loud to hear it. Nice classic Bogard movie playing in background.

A group of us went for early dinner. Some people enjoyed the food (sandwiches, burgers, sloppy joes, tomato soup). Everyone loved the shakes and the house beer. There were a few food items that were disappointing: grilled cheese was plain old American cheese (had expected something a little more exotic), chicken noodle soup (chicken was dry) and one person thought the meat in the reuben was too fatty (while someone else loved it). I'd recommend Ted's, however, just be aware that it's REALLY loud so it's difficult to hear whe... read more

Very relaxed restaurant. Our service was excellent...the waitress was very personable and knowledgable about the menu. I went specifically for the Country Fried Steak (even though I have issue with them calling it that)! The Chicken Fried Steak was quite good...tender and crispy. The white pepper gravy was not thick and gloppy like alot of places and had a good flavor. Not like my Mom's, but overall it was quite tasty. The mashed potatoes, on the other hand, were the perfectly round from an ice cream scoop like I had at the ... read more

My wife have and I have been to Ted's on a number of occasions and have always enjoyed it. The food is great, especially the T.U.B.S, and most breakfast items. The friends we have taken have been impressed as well. The only problem is the service is super spotty. It has been fifty-fifty as to whether the service has been good or not. The most recent trip we had good service, the time before no so good. Plus expect to wait for your table.

Everyone was super nice and helpful- one woman even made a dessert they didn't have any left of because that's what we had really wanted (ice cream sandwich... and it was delicious!). So much fun and such great food!

We liked the menu very much- adult milkshakes, retro food, comfort food, etc. The service was great. I thought noise level was extremely high. The service was excellent. I would not hesitate to go if they could just do something about noise level. Couldn't they put in anything to make noise level less?!
