Ted's Bulletin - Merrifield

The hostess that sat us at our table was very friendly and happy. Thomas, our server this morning, was absolutely delightful. He was so attentive, pleasant, smiley, polite … really pleased with this experience and would return based on the service alone. I had the biscuits and gravy, a mocha and shared the blueberry cheesecake tart. I’ve been to Teds before, and this location once before, and this was our best experience to date.

Atmosphere was great, outdoor option is really nice. Food was good too big portions for sure. Taste was not that great tho it was average. It could have been better.Eric (my server) was super helpful to me. If you have a chance try to get a table that he is looking.

THIS IS GREAT! I didn 't have expectations when I went to Ted 's. Then the great experience began. CUSTOMER SERVICE Wow, really good! I was impressed! Our waiter, John was very professional. At the beginning it felt a bit off because he was all business and didn 't seem he was interested in going beyond his specific duties. Full disclosure, when we arrived the place was packed! But as things settled down a bit he seemed to be more relaxed and actually smiled. That being said, I wouldn 't change his service. He is extremely professional/knowledgeable and very, very honest. He 'll tell you what he likes and what he doesn 't. I really like that type of professional person! Now let 's compare with Matthew, the moment he stepped in to help out he made us feel as if we had been friends. He was extremely busy but, he would take some seconds to let the client know he was very welcomed. In short, it was the perfect tag team that made the human experience one that other companies should embrace. FOOD Almost perfect. The Cobb salad. Salad was fresh but chicken was a bit dry. Flavors were there but the chicken was dry. Mexican Salad Again Salad very fresh and yummy but, the carne asada was on the hard side. The flavors were correct and the dish made sense, sadly the chewy part wasn 't good. Blue cheese dressing needed a bit of a pick me up. A bit on the bland, but we added some Blue cheese chunks from the salad it brought the dressing to life. Chocolate Milk Shake That was very YUMMY. It wasn 't too sweet. And the chocolate flavor popped out! Latte Seemed the coffee was over brewed because it was bitter. 3 Layer Carrot Cake NOW THERES GREATNESS IN ALL ITS SPLENDOR! That I will definitely buy again! RECOMMENDATION One of the employees screamed near us to another employee 'Do you have the Avocado Toast! ' Please be considerate of your customers. Don 't scream while standing next to the client. I know it was busy but, just walk over and ask for the item. SUMMARY It 's a great place. It does need some attention to details in certain areas but it doesn 't take away from the quality of the food and its personnel. RETURN FACTOR RECOMMEND A FRIEND FACTOR

This place is great and the server, Pete, was fantastic. He made our experience so enjoyable and my daughters kept commenting how nice he was. He brought my girls additional menus to color on and was very accommodating. The food was great and we took some tarts to go, which were amazing. You can see them making them too which was fun. We will definitely be back.

Amazing milkshakes and delicious breakfast food! The French toast and pancakes were excellent. Such a cute theme of the restaurant as well. We will be back!
