" Ted's Café Escondido has been a family favorite for years. We recently hosted a birthday party there, and I'm thrilled to report that the service was excellent. The waitstaff was attentive and accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed. We ordered a variety of dishes, and all were delicious. The mole sauce on my enchiladas was rich and flavorful, truly authentic to what I grew up with in Los Angeles. Even the dessert, their famous sopapillas, were a hit at our table! " (*Curated Review*)

" While Ted's is often packed, it's worth the wait! We went there on a Friday night, and although there was a 30-minute wait, we were kept entertained by the lively atmosphere. The food was still as good as I remembered — I had the Chicken Monterey, and the flavors were fantastic! Nice to see how they don't compromise on quality even when busy. I’ll definitely be back, just maybe on a weeknight next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at Ted's. While the ambiance is nice and welcoming, I felt let down by my meal. I ordered the combo plate, and while the rice and beans were fine, the tamale was lackluster. However, the service was attentive, and the waitress was kind enough to offer substitutes. I appreciate that effort. I may give Ted's another try, exploring other options on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Firstly, let me say that Ted's is quite enticing! The waiter was punctual with our orders, and got our drinks to us promptly. I started with their queso, which was simply irresistible. My entree of chicken fajitas was well-prepared, though a bit heavier for my taste. I also loved their old-school complementary chips and salsa – classic choice! Certainly worth visiting again with family. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining at Ted's was a mixed bag for me. On one hand, the complimentary chips and salsa were spot on, very fresh. On the other hand, I felt my chicken chimichanga was a bit bland. My expectations for Mexican food were set high, but I appreciate the kindness of the staff. I did enjoy the cozy ambiance, though. " (*Curated Review*)

" Ted's remains a neighborhood favorite! Each time I go, I leave happy and satisfied. Recently I went with my parents, and they were impressed by the variety of vegetarian options available. I tried the veggie burrito, and they packed it with lots of veggies, ensuring it was both delicious and filling! The service staff were accommodating and attentive. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Ted's was decent. The food was reasonably good, but I've had better Mexican elsewhere. I ordered the fish tacos, which were okay but didn't quite have the zing I expected. The service was friendly, and the atmosphere was buzzing with excitement. I think I might have just ordered the wrong thing and wouldn't hesitate to give it another go. " (*Curated Review*)
