Great food and service! Mac and cheese bites, cornbread, brussel sprouts, chicken and waffles, Turkish eggs, chicken Parmesan, and all of the Ted's Tarts were a huge hit with the family.

Our server was great. The restaurant had a smell to it. From the Instagram pictures it looks very classy, it was not. The crab cake Benedict tasted off. For $70 I would go somewhere else

Cobb salad was disappointing. Fried chicken overcooked, flavorless and DRY, deviled eggs did not taste fresh, bacon bits overcooked, limp greens. Yikes—nothing good to say about it.

I did not like that the amwaiter did not give us a printed bill. He came to the table with portable machine, told me the total and then Handd me thr machine to add a tip and sign. I prefer a paper bill to be able to look at and decide on a tip without the pressure of thr server standing over you.

I usually go to the TED’S in Virginia the food is amazing there. At this location the flavors just weren’t there for me. However, everyone has a different palette. This location was also super small and old looking. I would not return again.
