What started as a nice experience turned sour, due to the server (who was nice at first):

1. Server asked “What sides do you want with that?” (chimichanga) and when I asked how many it came with, they replied “two”, so I ordered them, only to see I was charged. This is incredibly sneaky and misleading.

2. Server began hovering around 9pm, asking twice if I needed a to-go box (was still obviously eating) and eventually brought me the cheque without me asking. If the restaurant closes at 10pm, then make last orders at 9.30p or whatever, but to rush someone through a meal simply so you can close your section is equally as disappointing.

… food was good, as always, and this *would have* been a good experience. Unfortunately, these two issues kept it from being so and will probably keep me from returning – at least, in the evening.

We’ve always enjoyed Ted’s and usually leave happy, but this time we were disappointed with one key change.

The shredded chicken — which we’ve loved for years — has been replaced with cubed chicken that’s soaked in a tomato-based sauce.
That might be fine on its own, but it really doesn’t pair well when the dish is also smothered in the sour cream sauce.

The flavor combo just didn’t work — and honestly, the old shredded chicken was WAY better. It was simpler, more tender, and just made more sense with the rest of the dish.

Still love the chips & salsa, service was good, and the place was clean and lively. ️
But we really hope they consider bringing the original shredded chicken back — it was a fan favorite for a reason!

One of my fav go-to for Americanized Mexican food Still offer curbside pick-up no extra fee. Food is fresh, piping hot & made to order Tortillas made fresh on site and some of the best guacamole in town ! Servings are not skimpy. Staff courteous, helpful. Inside can feel a bit cramped, hard to have any private conversation. Decor is bright Mexican market motif.

About the worst customer service I’ve ever experienced. For being the original they’ve fallen when it comes to customer service. I’ve never had issues with the one at leytons court. The hostess seemed bored and like I was bothering her. No smile whatsoever. Never had issues with the food at either place. But I’ll stay clear from this particular Ted’s

Every visit to Ted’s Café Escondido feels like a celebration! There isn’t one near where I live, so whenever we get the chance to stop by, it’s always something we look forward to. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the warm, inviting aroma of sizzling fajitas, fresh tortillas, and perfectly seasoned Tex-Mex dishes.

The staff here set the tone—friendly, attentive, and genuinely happy to make your meal special. They bring out fresh chips, salsa, and that famous warm flour tortilla with butter before you even order. It’s a small touch, but it makes you feel at home instantly.

Every dish I’ve tried has been flavorful and satisfying, from the enchiladas smothered in rich sauce to the sizzling fajita platters that arrive still steaming. The portions are generous, the presentation is colorful, and the taste is consistently top-notch. The homemade tortillas might be my favorite part—they’re soft, slightly chewy, and the perfect complement to every bite.

The restaurant itself has a lively, upbeat atmosphere—families laughing, friends catching up, and servers moving briskly but with smiles that make you feel like part of the party. Even when it’s busy, service stays quick and friendly.

Whether it’s for a birthday dinner, a road-trip stop, or just a night out with friends, Ted’s Café Escondido always hits the spot. It’s more than just good food—it’s a fun, flavorful experience that makes every visit worth the drive.

Ted’s is one of our local favorites. Always get the Atomic salsa and their made in house flour tortillas they are delicious. I had stopped in for lunch and thought I could tackle the sheet pan nachos. Wow it’s a lot of nachos that were tasty and filling that I could not finish so had enough for dinner. The service is usually over the top and very attentive. If in the area give them a try.

I’ve been going here a long time, and it has always been good. The food is good, the service excellent. And they’ll just keep bringing those tortillas. And the sopapillas are on the house!! Prices are good, too. Get your timing right and there’ no waiting for a table. Parking can be limited.

Ted’s is our go-to spot for a fun family night out! We love the easygoing atmosphere. It’s relaxed and welcoming, which makes it perfect for bringing the kids. They always find something on the menu they enjoy (and they love the chips and queso just as much as we do!). My husband and I have several favorites on the menu, and we especially love indulging in one of their delicious drinks when it’s just the two of us on a date night. The staff is always super friendly and attentive, which makes every visit feel special. We always look forward to our dinner nights at Ted’s!
