Reviews
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!

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.
