I live super close to Ted's, and have been wanting to try it since forever because of the high ratings from Yelp and people I know. Unfortunately, it did not even come close to my high expectations.
Maybe it's because I'm not a fan of having my hot dog burnt, which I guess is what char-grilled means. Which I was unaware of how they usually cooked their hot dogs. My mistake.
The dude behind the counter grillin it up was really nice, which is why I gave it two stars. However, the wait was excruciating long for the food to taste as bad as it did. I ordered a Mac and cheese dog to go with a side of fries. I almost forgot I ordered fries because they really lacked uniqueness to me. And the dog just took over my thoughts anyway.
So it was burnt. Like I said. I had to peel off the black skin around the dog for it to be edible. Then, since I got my dog to go, by the time I got home (literally 2 minutes later) my bun was all soggy from the Mac and cheese. As a suggestion, if they order it to go maybe just put it on the side and let them put it on.
The Mac and cheese was also disappointing. I'm thinking I'm getting some actual cooked pasta, when really it tasted like easy mac. I'm a Mac and cheese lover and that was just so sad to me.
I'm really sorry that I had to write this review because I just heard amazing things about this place. Maybe it was just my experience but yeah, I won't be going there ever again.
