    Great experience overall! The waiter turned down the air since he saw I was cold and I really appreciated that! Food had amazing flavor and nothing was bland. Definitely a top brunch location.

    Wonderful lunch experience for restaurant week at Teddy and the Bully Bar. Wonderful to be offered 3 courses - the French onion soup was excellent. Dessert reflected peaches in season. Everyone was happy with their choices of Miso glazed salmon and Steak and Frites with asparagus. Excellent service. Good pour of wine. Loved the oversized bar chairs at high top table which is what you would hope for in a Bully Bar.

    This was, by far, the best Restaurant Week Lunch value so far! The Onion Soup was excellent and cheesy, the Steak Fries also included Asparagus Spears that were wonderfully cooked (al dente), all in a beautiful presentation. The flourless Chocolate Cake was very good as well. For $25 for this 3 course lunch was an incredible value. Well done to the Teddy team!!

    I had the lamb tagliatelle and it was d very good. The lamb was a little gamey however the flavor of the pasta and sauce as well as the fresh ricotta made up for it. Super service and ambience.

    Service was extremely slow, so slow that we asked for the check after the appetizer arrived almost 30 minutes after we ordered it. Took ten minutes just to be greeted. Came from out of town and was celebrating a birthday and this kind of ruined the dinner plans.

    Service was absolutely horrible and inattentive. We had to ask for drink orders twice. Our appetizer came out wrong, we sent it back, and then it never came back. We had to remind our waiter to order our entrees, and our waiter was not available most of our meal. We won’t go back.

    The price was a high. Which makes it less likely that I would do brunch there more frequently even though it was a good experience it’s way more expensive than I thought and not feasible to do regularly.

    The service was very good. However, I had to send several of my plates back more than once because the food was delivered cold. The taste of the food was ok. If it were not for the omelet station and waffle station (hot food in hand), this would have not been a good review. Many of the plates seemed as if they were being prepared from a buffet rather than on order.

    The food was delicious, the place was kind of busy but it didn't seem like our server had a lot of tables. We kept having to oder our dishes multiple times and request mimosa refills. Every other time I've been to Teddy's the glass never reaches empty. Despite that and having to ask multiple times for our food it was a great experience. The food was late but it was still delicious and hot/warm when it finally made it out.
