    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.

    This was a different Ted's Bulletin location than I often go to. The food was good, albeit came a little cold. I think this was simply part of the service problems that we experienced and not a problem with the kitchen. We had to flag a server down several times because of them forgetting things or just not even touching in to see if everything was fine.

    The food and the service were excellent, just as I’ve come to expect from every other visit I make to DC. Ted’s Bulletin Capitol Hill is a regular stop for me.
