Ted's Cafe Escondido

Free Salsa is very mild or you can request the Hot. Free caso (which tastes like cream of cheddar soup) meals average $11-$15 each (as of 28Oct2011) meal was pretty good. I'm vegetarian, so I ordered vegie-casadia ... wish they offered 1/2 orders for those of us that dont want to over stuff ourselves and can't eat that much. I had to bring 1/2 or mine home. Husband ordered tortilla soup with tacos. He enjoyed his and was satisfied with the size of his meal. Then we were offered free sopapias.

They certainly get an A for effort. The service is way above usual. You never wait for anything. They bring chips and a few different salsa flavors plus melted cheese free when you are seated. They handle large parties well. I could go on and on about the great service. The food flavor is just average I thought - especially the melted cheese for the chips. I feel bad complaining about something that is free but that could be better.
