Amazing Mexican food and an even more stellar staff! They took such good care of us and even gave us “freebies” since we’re visiting from out of town which were delicious! We both ended up getting enchiladas which were served hot with tasty sauces and classic rice and beans on the side. Definitely recommend stopping by! Thanks so much you guys!

In town for the football game and was recommended this place and they did not disappoint! Excellent food and even better service. We even walked by and met and tipped the nice lady making the fresh tortillas I’d come back for this alone!. Will def be back to this spot everything was spot on!

I am writing to provide feedback regarding a recent visit to your establishment. While I appreciate the quality of the food, there are several areas related to facility cleanliness, maintenance, and service procedures that require immediate attention.
️ Food Portion Changes
I have noticed a significant and concerning reduction in portion sizes, specifically with the rice and beans, which appear to have been cut by approximately half. This directly impacts the value proposition for customers and should be reviewed.
Restroom Maintenance and Cleanliness
The condition of the restroom during my visit was unacceptable.
Cleanliness: The restroom was visibly dirty.
Maintenance Issues: The right-hand sink was out of order and requires immediate repair.
Supply Shortage: Crucially, there was no toilet paper available.
Staff Follow-up and Procedure
I witnessed a staff member entering the restroom area, apparently to perform a check or log maintenance. They marked off an inspection sheet but failed to restock the missing supplies or address the cleanliness and maintenance issues (like the lack of toilet paper and the broken sink) at that time.
Recommendation: I urge management to address these issues immediately, focusing on consistent restroom cleanliness, prompt repair of fixtures, ensuring all necessary supplies are stocked, and reinforcing staff protocols for completing maintenance checks thoroughly.

Last night we sat at the bar at Ted’s Café Escondido and Sierra absolutely ran that place like it was a Navy operation. Her badge said “Trainer,” and believe me — she is not playing around. That bar was moving with precision. Drinks? Never empty. Chips and salsa? Refilled before we even realized they were low. The woman moves with PURPOSE.
It was like watching hospitality in Olympic form — efficient, friendly, and somehow still completely calm while running the whole show.
We both had the Chicken Monterrey and Pink Skies (highly recommend both ), and everything was delicious — but honestly, Sierra is what made the night. If you can snag a seat at her bar, do it. You won’t just get dinner… you’ll get an experience.
Give that woman a promotion and a cape.

First time trying Ted’s on Valentine’s Day and I got the enchilada with a side of nachos and they gave me tortilla shells with droplets of meat on top food was pretty basic, my favorite thing was probably the jalapeño ranch.

Vallie, our server , was excellent! The food was the best Mexican food I’ve had in a long time . I had the chimichanga and the shredded beef was amazing. Right now their sign is missing, but I assure you they are still open !

The food was above average, I highly recommend the deserts! They have a great team of servers and the place is very well ran. The manager even stopped by and checked on us twice and let us try a few extra items off the menu since it was our first visit there. It surely won’t be the last.

It’s always a beautiful experience at Ted’s. The tortillas are hot, the salsa is fresh, the chips are crunchy and the baskets are refilled over and over.
Atomic salsa is always delivered upon request, a perfect accompaniment to any quesadilla or enchilada. It’s our family favourite for good reason.
Do not let them know it’s a birthday if the birthday boy is shy. Just saying.
For a family style restaurant in Norman, it has great Mexican.

Quite possibly the best Mexican restaurant I have ever eaten at.
They offer a wide selection of scrumptious made-from-scratch, authentic, Mexican food for decent prices and excellent service from wonderful friendly people. The red & green chili temperatures range from mild to hot. The food flavors awaken your taste buds and stir your apetite to an extreme state of euphoria. All of their meats are USDA prime cuts that get marinated overnight before being grilled to perfection.
The queso, salsa, pico de gallo, and homemade tortillas are to die for.
The yummy refried beans are creamy with just the right amount of cheddar cheese.
The spanish rice is cooked perfectly with just the right amount of spices and a light oil.
Our server was professional and very attentive to our every need with perfect timing.
Ted’s Café Escondido is always busy so you may have to wait for a few minutes but it is extremely well worth the short wait.
