my waitress Jess, was the worst waitress I've ever had. I ordered dessert and it was brought to the table next to me that was about to leave. Jess didn't check on me, even when she was checking on the people sitting right next to me. when my food was brought out, I had to ask the person who brought my food to get a drink refill. Jess got my order wrong and I had to tell the person who brought out my food. Jess walked by me several times and never looked at me or checked on me. I ordered a lot of food and another employee cam... read more

usually really love this place and the service is fine but i came in recently to order to go and Delphia (I think that's how you spell her name) at the bakery was unnecessarily rude. she rolled her eyes at me when i asked a question because she had to go back and ask someone and when i would ask her more questions she would ignore me and i would have to repeat myself. super hostile interaction for someone coming from work just wanting to grab a quick dinner! 

Business response:

This restaurant is really a racist restaurant. My experience with this place was really a bad experience. I do not know why they would delete my review when this is MY experience. This restaurant is really racist. That's it that's all

The food was great as always...but the only problem was my hash browns were missing..after walking back through the snow. Change clothes and unpack the food and hash browns were not there it was too late to get dress and go back.well I gave up my Ted Tart..just to keep the peace..its my own fault for not checking the bag better and I think I ordered correctly.. My receipt # ed009808

Love this place. Service is usually great. However, dined at the bar and there was a white male red headed bartender that ignored black people at the bar and rushed to attentively serve every white person at the bar- it was very obvious. This is the first time I've had this experience at this location because usually the bartenders are great. Please address this. If he can't serve EVERYONE ATTENTIVELY, he should not be a bartender. The hostess was awesome and the other bartender that appeared and took our orders was great as... read more

I hate this place so much lol Service was bad. Only saw our server in the beginning when she took our order, asked a follow up question like 10 minutes later, and at the very end to close out. Never checked in with us about our food and we had to ask for help the host (he was great). Asked for blueberry pancakes and only saw 3-4 blueberries. The pancakes themselves were so bland. My husband asked for truffle fries with his caesar salad wrap but he got plain fries instead. Waited another 10 minutes to get it fixed and it c... read more

Mixed Feelings About This Place I visited D.C. for the first time -- it was amazing! During a break, my husband and I decided to try this restaurant. First impression: The hostess at the door looked like she didn't want to be there. Not the warmest welcome -- it definitely affected the first impression. Food: Absolutely 10/10! Out of all the restaurants we visited, Ted's had the best food by far. Service: The waiter spilled water on the table and didn't bother to clean it. While taking our order, he made rude faces as if he ... read more
