   We love Connie and Ted’s but this was the worst experience. We sat for 15 minutes before anyone showed up. A waitress finally showed up, apologized because she didn’t know we were her table. Then it took a half hour to get drinks. And then she got orders wrong. We didn’t send anything back because at that point we had been there forever without any proper attention or food. This was so surprising because I never remember it so bad. I was a waiter for 12 years so I’m very forgiving but she was the worst. As we were waiting for drinks, there were at least 5 employees near our table just standing around and I was unable to get anyone’s attention. Even if I love the food, if the service is bad I won’t go back. A terrible evening out.

   Always enjoyed this place in the past. Last night was a disappointment. Ordered a $50 entree that we’ve enjoyed and sadly it was 1/2 the portion usually served. Super noisy as well.

   Connie and Ted’s never disappoints us. We had a lovely dinner and everything was great. Oysters were fresh and delish! My husband had the steamers and was in his glory. I had the fish stew. Yum!

   Our server was very helpful and when we told him what kind of oysters we prefer, he brought out the perfect ones. He also helped substitute a side I ended up not liking for a different one.

    Everything was delightful and delicious. Our only complaint was the service. We could never get our server’s attention without asking a bus boy. Definitely get the crab cake. Best in LA.

    The fried calamari needed to be cooked a little bit more, not crunchy enough. On the other hand, the fisherman stew was wonderful as were the onion rings.

    The food was absolutely delicious! I had a crab and lobster omelette with a side of french fries & we shared the monkey bread. The mimosas were perfect. The only thing is that even during brunch, they only have regular sides no breakfast sides.

    Someone took our table and thirty mins before we went there my booking was Amended from 3 people to 2 but not by me (not sure how/why that happened). Food was fair, my hot lobster roll was cold and 90% bread but the oysters were delicious and the New England chowder was good. The servers were really nice. We were sat by the door to outside which opened and closed every 2 mins meaning where we sat was freezing , we did say how cold it was but were told nothing could be done - restaurant was quite empty at this point so feel like we could have been moved which would have made the experience better- hard to enjoy a meal when you are freezing !

    Food was good but surprisingly small dish for a New England lobster boil. Tiny piece of lobster, 2 clams, 2 mussels, a tiny piece of a corn cob and some small diced potatoes was a rip off at $44. Service was surprisingly slow. It took a long time to get drinks, apps and main course. Unusual for this restaurant which is usually one of my favs.

    My food was great! I ordered large raw oysters and Steamed muscles. My husan ordered a Lobster roll and it was small on a folded piece of bread. He also had Manhattan clam chowder and it was very thin and had little clams in it.

    Connie & Ted remains a solid contender in the neighborhood, but it still hasn’t recovered from the pandemic. Food is pretty much back normal (yay) with a few corners still being cut, but the bar is a total miss. I ordered a martini which arrived in small water glass and was probably 5 parts water and 1 part gin. My companion ordered an espresso martini which was sweet and watery too. We immediately switched to beer. Bottom line: don’t order cocktails. Enjoy the food and bottled drinks.

    Had the Sunday special Fried Chicken - which is fantastic! We also enjoyed the fried calamari appetizer - excellent! Sundae Funday was a new dessert to us and we shared that - loved it. Drinks, service were excellent as well. Connie & Ted's is a long time favorite restaurant of ours. I think we have tried everything on the menu and just love dining here. They make everything on site - incredible quality and flavor.

    We love Connie & Ted’s and have been many times. Never disappoints. They serve the best raw oysters we’ve eaten anywhere. We have always enjoyed anything we’ve ordered on the menu. This time we brought friends who’d never come before and we always like to do that because our friends always enjoy the great laid back vibe, cool cocktails (we love Born in East LA), great seafood raw or cooked and excellent service. This time we ate seafood stew, which is very delicious. A night out at Connie & Ted’s is hard to beat.

    I’m from Maine, so I came in with an attitude about what a good lobster roll should taste like … and I was not disappointed! In fact, I was delighted and surprised by the quality and taste of their lobster roll! I can’t wait to go back, now that i know the best place in LA to get one. I also enjoyed the oyster sampler platter, the great beer and wine selection, and friendly staff. I wanted desperately to try one of the desserts, but I was too full. Gotta figure out how to save room next time, because the Blondie is calling my name. Truly, I can’t believe I’ve lived here 22 years and never visited before. Time to make up for lost time and lobster!

    Aweful experience. We sat down took 20-25mins minutes for a waiter to come and get us food and drinks. Then the food took another 30-40 mins to come. The service has really gone down after covid. It’s awful.

    One of our favorite, go-to restaurants. Today we had multiple Croque Connie dishes on our table, outstanding oysters, a bottle of English sparkling wine, and more through dessert. We wanted comfort food on a lazy Sunday afternoon and we did not intend to overindulge. We unexpectedly enjoyed a decadent meal without regrets. Extraordinary experience by far!
