First time trying Ted's Bulletin and I was definitely impressed. The atmosphere was really nice & I noticed a lot of families dining in, which gave it a warm, welcoming vibe. Our waiter was friendly and gave great recommendations. I ordered the Ted's Bulletin burger with the egg fried hard, and let me just say this was my first time having an egg on a burger, and I'm sold! I'd get it again any day. I also swapped my regular fries for truffle fries, which were a great choice. My boyfriend ordered the fried chicken with biscuits and got the sausage gravy on the side. The chicken was fried perfectly with a nice crunch, the biscuits were soft, and the sausage gravy was so good you could honestly eat it by itself. My daughter got the mac and cheese with a side of fruit and cleaned her plate.. no crumbs left! I'd definitely come back, especially to try their breakfast/brunch since they serve it all day. Overall, I'd recommend Ted's for a solid breakfast, lunch, or dinner. read more

I ordered the NY Strip Au Poivre 10 oz NY strip, roasted fingerling potatoes, sauteed spinach, peppercorn sauce... The meat itself was tender and wasnt chewy... However, the peppercorn "sauce" wasnt it... it was literally loaded with peppercorn as you can see in the picture. Overloaded.... With peppercorn which was burnt and made the meat bitter. Nice environment overall and calamari appetizer was on point. read more

Since moving to the Union Market/NoMa area, I've made it a point to dine at, shop at, and support local businesses whenever I can. Today's stop was breakfast at Ted's Bulletin, and it turned out to be the perfect Thursday morning day-off meal. The weather was lovely, so we grabbed a table outside and soaked it all in. Food For our entrées, we ordered steak, eggs, potatoes and pancakes, plus eggs and chicken sausage. Everything tasted fresh and satisfying, exactly what you want from a classic breakfast. I had the green juice, which felt like a good balance to the hearty meal, while my cousin went with mimosas, which felt very on brand for a relaxed weekday breakfast. The portions were generous, and the menu hits that comfort food sweet spot. It's the kind of place where you can always find something that sounds good, whether you're craving something indulgent or a little lighter. Service I'll admit the service wasn't great this time around. We had to ask for a few things multiple times because our server was forgetful and not the most attentive. Even simple things, like syrup not coming out with the pancakes, required a follow-up request, and by the time it arrived, the food had cooled off a bit. That said, I dined here a few weeks ago for dinner with a group of about eight people, and the service during that visit was much better. So I'm hoping this was just an off morning rather than the norm. Ambiance The restaurant itself is large and welcoming, making it a great option for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. The outdoor patio is a wonderful addition, especially on beautiful days like today. Sitting outside with good food and nice weather made the whole experience feel easy and enjoyable. Overall Ted's Bulletin is a solid neighborhood staple and a great place to keep in rotation, especially if you live nearby like I do. The prices are decent and comparable to what's offered around the Union Market/NoMa area, which makes it an easy choice when you want a reliable meal without feeling like you overspent. I'll definitely be back and hoping for a smoother service experience next time, because the food and atmosphere make it worth another visit. read more

I am a frequent customer because normally the quality of the food is worth paying for. Today however, an incompetent greeter who I suppose was trying to be helpful and an incompetent "chef" working the pass failed to add my side order to the bag ‍. Yes, I know I should have checked the bag, but I'm a regular, - they always get it right. Not only did I have to return to get my side the food was over done. read more

I visited Ted's Bulletin in December 2025 for brunch with two colleagues, and the experience at the NoMa location was phenomenal. I've been to the U Street/14th Street location before, but this one is by far my favorite. The ambiance, aesthetic, and overall layout are modern, cute, sexy, and elevated. I absolutely love the bar space -- it adds such a great touch to the atmosphere. Our server was extremely accommodating and gave us wonderful recommendations, including the viral cinnamon roll -- which is an absolute must-order. Yes, you have to get it. It did not disappoint. Our appetizers were delicious, my entrée was really good, and overall the experience was seamless and enjoyable. I would definitely return to this location again and am already planning to be back in 2026. Highly recommend. read more

My partner and I made our way into Ted's Bulletin on a (holiday) Monday for brunch. It was busy but only about a 15 minute wait. Our server was kind/efficient and gave us some recommendations. We got the cinnamon roll to split - I wasn't expecting it to be that big - but it was so delicious and we loved it. I got the Turkish eggs for my meal and they were delightful. Everything was cooked well. The cold brew was OK - I felt like it was a bit too bitter but I did enjoy the hazelnut syrup. My biggest issue was our seating. We were sat at a small high top that I felt like was more fitting for the cafe section than dining. It was really hard for us to be able to have the cinnamon roll appetizer and our meals. read more

This particular location is absolutely my favorite for the ambiance alone. They were easily able to accommodate my group and we had an excellent server that attended to all of our questions and dietary needs. Three things that I will never skip at Ted's Bulletin: devilled eggs, fried cornbread, and Ted's tarts. Each one is very well executed and a crowd pleaser every time. My fellow diners enjoyed a variety of dishes, but the short rib stroganoff was definitely a standout. Everyone certainly left full and happy. A few had shakes to go, which might have been the least exciting thing, but it was an overall satisfying meal. Go! Take a date, bring a friend or colleague. You won't be disappointed. read more

I came here for breakfast on a Sunday around 9ish and sat at the bar. Service was a little slow but the bartender was still very friendly. I had the cherry blossom matcha latte to start which was alright - it didn't have much additional flavor above a normal matcha. I ordered the avocado toast and really enjoyed the flavors there, though the micro-cilantro was pretty heavy duty so I took some off mine. I also got a side of hashbrowns which were good. Overall, it was a good breakfast and I'd be up to trying again! read more

Absolutely amazing. Service by Luke was great, atmosphere was relaxing, & the food was wonderful as was the lattes. Expansive menu. The shredded hash browns made me so happy! You don't see them many places. Everything was perfect. I'll definitely be back next time I'm in D.C. read more

Amazing brunch! Our server Jaiden was lovely. She was very knowledgeable, all of her recommendations were a 10/10. The mimosa kit comes with delicious champagne , the gin and juice cocktail was so strong . I would go back just for that cocktail! The cinnamon roll was as big as my head. So hot, delicious, and can pour however much icing you'd like. A must try, but remember it's large. We split between 4 ppl. A delicious sweet treat after our meal! I "made my own mark" breakfast combo with their Virginian ham, bomb.com and not too salty. Id def order my hashbrowns crispy next visit. Thanks for everything Jaiden. Good luck at Howard read more

We had a reservation. I lucked out and got parking right outside. I liked the comfortable seating at the table, they had high chairs available, and the decor has an upscale look.

This restaurant was a walking distance from our hotel which was really convenient. It has a spacious and inviting entrance and the hosts were pleasant and immediately sat us at a table for two. You can immediately tell the place was busy on a Friday afternoon. Lots of conversations happening at various tables but noise level was bearable. Our server, Christa S., informed us that we had 7 minutes to put in our order for their Happy Hour specials. That was really nice of her to prompt us so we can get $3 off Starters. We enjoyed the Jalapeño Popper Wonton which was served with cilantro lime ranch and the Crispy Calamari with pepperoncini aioli. Their menu had a lot of good things to offer. I decided to try their Avocado Toast with a generous portion of smoked salmon. It was like comfort food for me with two poached eggs that came with two sizeable slices of sourdough bread with smashed avocado, cherry tomatoes, radish, pickled chiles, fried garlic, microgreens and cilantro tossed in lime juice. I had unflavored Iced Tea and Christa provided me a refill. My friend had the Ted's Cobb Salad with Grilled Chicken. The salad came with a good amount of bacon lardons, tomato, deviled eggs, pickled onions, avocado, gorgonzola cheese on a bed of lettuce and cilantro lime ranch dressing on the side. We will definitely be back! read more

When we arrived for our lunch reservation, the hostess greeted us immediately upon entering the restaurant. The ambiance inside was elegant yet dimly lit. Since it was a perfect day for outdoor dining, we requested a table outside. The outdoor seating area was crowded; however, we were seated at a table at the far end of the patio. Our waiter took our beverage order, and we chose bottled water for the table. He returned promptly with the water, and we then placed our food order, which included tacos with Mexican street corn, a grilled chicken wrap, and truffle fries. The food arrived quickly, within ten minutes or less, and everything looked amazing. The tacos were flavorful, fully assembled, and required no additional toppings. While the street corn had the typical flavor, I found it to be quite soupy. The consistency was not what I expected, but the taste remained unaffected. The grilled chicken wrap was perfect, and the fries were well-cooked and seasoned with truffle oil. Our waiter was efficient but not very interactive. He took our orders, checked in on us once, cleared the table, and brought the check. Overall, it was a good experience. I appreciated the location; the restaurant was nice, and parking was convenient. read more

Decided to stop by for happy hour. I was saddened to learn that the $10 burger and fries was no longer a thing. So, I instead tried the szechuan chicken. It was pretty good. I don't know if it is always this way, but the fried chicken tasted a bit burnt, almost like it was fried in dirty oil, but besides that it was still tasty and edible. I liked it, it had a good amount of kick to it. I also order the fried mac and cheese which was nice. It came on a platter of marinara sauce. The sauce was a little warm, I wish it was hotter. But they were still good. read more

After they asked me to call about this bad experience, the lady that answered the phone said that they were too busy to discuss the experience! They would "get back to me later". A lot of noise in the background during Monday mid day so clearly I am correct about it being loud and hectic there. Not my jam. Since they don't have the time for my family and I, I don't have the time for them. I wouldn't have called if I didn't still have interest in going to a Ted's. Poor management and staff training here clearly. It's clear that "customer S" is just a random person that doesn't really have an organized system to manage diner's issues while communicating with them. You basically have to talk to a random employee on the phone, then a random manager on duty at the time, and no real policy for handling complaints other than liking like they care online. No way to reach corporate beyond starting another random email thread that probably goes no where. Skip this location unless you care for busy atmosphere and bad training and management while dining. Too bad my favorite breakfast in dc is so poorly managed but give up. read more

Dropped in here to enjoy a quick lunch. I got the chicken and waffles which was beautiful in presentation but lacking flavor. The waffle solo tasted like plain waffle batter. The chicken as well had a nice crunchy batter but didn't really include much additional seasoning beyond that. Service and ambiance was great so maybe there are other things that are better on the menu than what I ordered. I wouldn't get it again. read more

My Norway Benedict was gooey and crispy, with the salmon nicely smoked and pleasantly chewy. The tea I ordered wasn't very flavorful, so I asked for a spiced tea to better match my taste for chai.

Back again for dinner. Yesterday I reviewed this establishment for breakfast and rated it 4. I decided to try it for dinner today. After being seated promptly, I was pleasantly surprised to find out it was happy hour. At first glance, $10 burger and fry combo seemed like a great deal. I ordered it along with the side salad with avocado vinegarette. First of all, salad was delicious. Dressing was great and croutons were crunchy. Burger came and it knocked my socks off. Double patty with some of the most delicious fries I've had. The value you get for a $10 special is second to none. I will be back for sure for this special. read more

This is a solid Ted's location. We arrived as a group for lunch and were seated immediately upon arrival. I believe someone from the group made a reservation on our behalf, but there was a little bit of a weekday lunch rush, so would recommend a reservation if you can. Especially given how close it is to the hill and offices. We ordered many dishes to share as a group and they were all great! Special shout out to the Mac and cheese (great portion and taste), steak and fries, and the Confit Shiitake Hash. But you can't go wrong with the menu. And of course, we also had a few Ted's tarts all of which were delicious. Service was also super great and efficient. Definitely stop by if you're in the area! read more

I popped in for happy hour, which is a great deal--$7 glasses of wine, similar price for other beverages, $3 off bites--and sat at the bar. It's a very cozy setting. I usually sit in the patio but it was a chilly day. I was told that they were soon getting heat lamps for those who live an outdoor spot. I was immediately approached by the bartended and served quickly. I was checked on frequently and my entree order was just perfect for the windy day. The grilled cheese was served so warm and hot, and the tomato soup complimented it perfectly. Very delicious and recommended!! read more

I was craving brunch and a bloody Mary!! One of my favorite brunch items is the salmon Benedict! We came on a Friday morning around 10:30 AM with Lil to no weight at all. Our server was knowledgeable, and courteous to us while accommodating my husband's many changes to his order. It got pretty busy however, the flow of the restaurant remained calm, cool and collected. At least two general managers approached us to ask how our dining experience was going, and I appreciated that. I love the spin off to the traditional Benedict. Because I like to eat gluten-free, I enjoyed the Benedict with hash brown instead of English muffin. My egg was poached perfectly, some restaurants get this wrong often. My husband was so full he couldn't finish his food at all. He ordered the chicken biscuits which were fried and seasoned perfectly. The biscuits were fluffy and delicious along with the pancakes. Our matching bloody Marys were the perfect addition to complete our meal! L We live in California but we will return!! read more

I am a " frequent flyer " you can say for Ted's Bulletin as I go often because it is located right across the street from my office. The service is always fast because I normally place my order online with Toast. The ambiance is cozy and inviting, bur big enough to host larger parties from an office meeting to after-work happy hour if needed. I often by the strawberry matcha which is not too sweet and the staff allow you to choose from a variety of milk substitutions. Today I tried their new Szechuan hot chicken sandwich with fries. The chicken was crispy and flavorful, but really oily. So oily that the french fries were soaked as well. The cabbage mixed on top provided a nice cooling sensation as well. And I always finish their meals with one of their famous tarts. You can never go wrong with the strawberry flavor. read more

This has quickly become one of my go to places in DC NoMa. It's not enough to call it "upscale American diner fare," because it's more than that. They take old fashioned comfort foods up a couple notches. It's not easy to make chicken and waffles "fancy," but they pull it off. Not a place I'd go if you're doing a low carb diet, because you're going to see Steak & Cheese Egg Rolls and Loaded Tots on the menu and blow a week of points. And it's totally worth it! Both are delish! Also went shrimp tacos - fresh, light flavors and stuffed full. Three in an order was way more than enough. Since I was in deep already, may as well take down the Bourbon Pecan Pie. The usually dense center was surprisingly crumbly and fluffy while still packing the pecan punch. Nice! Service was attentive and friendly. They were busy but seated us on time for our Open Table reso. I'll be back! read more
