" Absolutely love Teddy's Cocina! Whenever I'm in Pasadena, this is my go-to taco spot. The flavors are authentic, and I always get the same order of shrimp tacos and their delicious horchata. It's not just filling, it's an experience. Prices are reasonable and the staff takes care of you well. Highly recommend to other taco enthusiasts! " (*Curated Review*)

" Teddy's Cocina has made its way to my favorites! Their tacos are never anything short of amazing. I had the al pastor and potato options this time, and both were phenomenal. The price is fair for the quality you get, and it’s a casual setting, perfect for grabbing food with friends. The staff are always attentive and ensure you have what you need. Definitely will keep returning! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an awesome lunch here! I tried the chicken tacos and they were super delicious, with that authentic flavor you expect from a great taco joint. The space is cozy and inviting, perfect for lunch or casual dinner after a long day. Everything felt fresh and homemade. My only downside was I found the portion sizes for the price a bit small. Otherwise, Teddy's Cocina is pretty much a must-try! " (*Curated Review*)

" The hype around Teddy's Cocina is absolutely justified! I went there on a quiet Wednesday afternoon and tried their shrimp tacos, which were a burst of flavors wrapped in the freshest corn tortillas. The shrimp was perfectly cooked, moist, and combined with the tangy salsa, it made for an unforgettable experience. The staff were polite and made great recommendations too. I can't wait to come back and try more items from their extensive menu. Highly recommend to anyone in the Pasadena area! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been a regular at Teddy's for almost a year now, and let me tell you – every visit feels like a little celebration. Their red mulita is nothing short of spectacular, and the marlin and shrimp tacos are equally impressive. Teddy himself often greets regulars, and that personal touch makes the dining experience special. I do wish their menu expanded further to include more vegetarian options. But if you're craving authentic Mexican food that warms your heart, look no further! Don’t forget to try their specialty drinks, they elevate the meal to another level! " (*Curated Review*)

" Recently, I brought my family to Teddy's and we had a fantastic lunch. The staff treated us like we were part of the family and the food was incredible. I particularly loved their duck tacos, which I had never tried before. It was an interesting twist! The kids devoured their cheesy quesadillas and had a great time. The prices were fair and the ambiance was perfect for a family outing. We will definitely be returning, because our experience was top-notch! " (*Curated Review*)

" Just had a memorable dinner at Teddy's Cocina! I treated myself to a delightful selection of tacos, including a vegetarian one that was superb. The staff was eager to help with menu suggestions and made sure I felt welcome. The quaint decor of the place adds to its overall charm. A fantastic place for taco aficionados looking for quality and authenticity. One minor note: it can get a bit crowded during peak hours, so arriving early would be a good idea! " (*Curated Review*)
