    We went for an early dinner at 5:30pm to avoid noisy crowds. We sat at a 2 person elevated booth which.was nice and intimate. We ordered appetizers of Loaded Tots, Grilled Cornbread and Bacarian Pretzels. The loaded tots were large cubes with good flavor and some cheese & bacon, but not smothered. We liked that. The grilled cornbread was delicious with the cinnamon butter that was served with it. The pretzels were a little strange though, and tasted a little like hotdogs. The gruyere cheese for dipping didn't seem as sharp as it should have been. Gruyere cheese can be considered a "stinky cheese" with a strong flavor, but not this one. We ordered the tomato soup and a Green Goddess Salad. Both were flavorful and pleasing to eat. We each enjoyed a glass of the Brut Cava sparkling wine which had a really smooth taste and were served in a typical white wine glass rather than a champagne flute and was nicely chilled. No problem. It tasted great! This was our 3rd time at Ted's Bulletin at the Mosaic District and it was a most pleasant experience yet again. The server was attentive and we will definitely go back again and again.

    Our server was excellent! Good food, good ambience. Loved the playing of classic films from the 1930s on the big screen TV. Much better than sports!

    Hair was in my salad, so my server brought another one for me. I felt disgusted, but they immediately took care of it. I would go there again, but not salad. Overall, service was good. Calamari and Chai tea were great!

    Ted bulletin never disappoints. The food is always fresh. The salads are crunchy and the weight staff is just beyond belief.

    Teds had a good vibe, a really nice area as well. I got the chicken & waffles it was alright but most certainly not worth $23, pieces of chicken were small and under seasoned, waffle was just your basic waffle you can make for breakfast at a hotel with the waffle maker. Our waitress Sabrina was great, you could tell she seemed pretty stressed and overwhelmed but still managed to provide great services so props to her for that.
