Tortilla heaven! On request! Made from scratch! No extra charge! Seriously this place is awesome. Free chips and queso per person which is always a plus. Fast, friendly service in a clean, quiet environment. The steak fajitas are a favorite of mine . Amazing flavor , and always served hot. This place is a must for tortilla/fajita lovers everywhere! Be sure to call ahead for wait times if you are in a hurry.

Staff was very polite and friendly. The free "chips and salsa" also includes queso, tortillas, veggies, and two types of salsa. The food was absolutely amazing, with good portion sizes. Also had free sopapillas after... Overall an amazing experience. Will definitely be coming back.

Great place to grab a beer while waiting for the car to charge. I had no idea Tecate could taste so good when presented in Ted's Style. Freshly made tortillas and tortilla chips are provided free at the bar, and they are delicious. I wouldn't say the tortillas are authentic, but they are good in their own way. I need to actually try the food here sometime!

The wait was terrible. The first offer of a table was too small for 5 adult people. The food was really good. I had the fajita salad. The salad gets 5 stars.

This is one of my favorite restaurants around! You get a bunch of food for a great price. The decor is beautiful and everyone genuinely looks happy to be there! This is now the third time I have visited and each time is better than the last!

My only "complaint" is the acoustics need work. We can't hear each other talk. But it's because there are so many people there. And there are so many patrons because the food and service are great. So we'll continue to suffer through. Again and again.

The food and service was wonderful as usual except that we were not offered any sopapillas. The table was a little small for all four of us adults, we had to move it in order to fit in behind the people at the table behind ours and there wasn't much elbow room. Our small appetizer plates had to be cleared when our food came bc there was no room on the table.

My family went here to try and distract ourselves after our dog died, and the server not only gave us great service before finding out, but once she realized why we were all there she gave us a to-go box full of sopapillas.Also, the food's fantastic and the salsa in particular was just really really good.

The restaurant was clean, food was great, service was great, and the wait staff was on point. Drinks were always refilled and you could see the staff busy going back and forth constantly carrying something to a table or taking something back. Really well run restaurant. I'm definitely coming back on my next payday.

The food is pretty good. The service is great. Portions are just right. Wish they had corn tortillas.

It was the week of Black Friday and very busy, but we were seated right away. Enough servers were on duty. Our server was amazing. Kept our glasses full and was attentive despite how many people were there. It was clean and a comfortable temperature too. Great experience. Glad we went.

Ted’s is my favorite Mexican restaurant by far! The staff goes above and beyond, every single visit. The food is the best you’ll find, especially the atomic salsa!! Can’t go wrong here for a family night out or a date night.

We love the food! The only reason they are not 5 stars is the wait staff were not wearing their mask correctly. They had them on their chin or below their nose. If they can't wear them properly then don't wear them.
