Went here today after church. Brought a family of 11 with me. Ordered at the front counter on what they wanted from the menu. Menu had assorted Mexican food, hamburgers and sandwiches. Received our food within 10 minutes. Service was very fast! Took a bite from my Carne Asada burritos with some Onion rings. All was fresh and tasted good! There is no waitress but the workers behind the counter kept checking on us. Refilling our drinks. Overall, this place has great service and good food. The workers are very nice!! Not to mention that the prices are still reasonably low and affordable especially being in a small recession and high inflation. Place is Clean with plenty of seating and parking! read more

After a long day working in Downtown LA, I was starving by the time I reached Carson. I searched for breakfast spots near Vermont and the UCLA Harbor Center, and Ted's burgers in Carson, 2220 and main popped up with 4.0 stars--so glad I stopped by! This cozy, family-owned restaurant did not disappoint. I ordered their avocado omelette, loaded with bacon and cheese, served with crispy hashbrowns, plus a coffee. Everything was delicious! (Check out the pics!) The place is spacious, conveniently located near the 110 freeway, and even offers patio seating. The staff, especially Gaby, were super friendly and helpful. I'm definitely coming back to try more dishes. Highly recommend! read more

A Carson staple! I've been going here ever since I was a kid. I think I've gone here in every stage of life and I still love it until this day. It's one of my comfort spots. The food is still like it used to be when I was a kid (go-tos are the pastrami sandwich, chili cheese fries with pastrami on it, zucchini fries, and all meat burrito). The portions haven't changed either, which is great. I usually only do drive-thru and the service I've gotten is usually good. They're usually friendly and quick. read more

The food is good, but remember that its a hole in the wall w your standard fare. We usually come for breakfast and order the same thing. Service is fast, but what makes this place memorable is the lovely lady who greets all the guests w a smile and makes you feel welcome. She chats w guests and always has a smile on her face!!!

Best stinking fries this side of the Mississippi I mean Fries are fries are fries right guys? but they season them right som one knows what they're doing. Hot crispy. Sure they cost over five bucks but they practically fill the bag that they came in Service is good and polite. I used the drive through so can't really comment on the ambience . Drive through speaker work. The menu was intact and had nice pictures And in comparison to a nearby, flame, broiled burger place, whose name I won't mention, but it starts with yellow and ends with basket where they use no seasoning no salt. I'd avoid that place. This is the place if you're a fry person like me. read more

Went here to pick up some Asada Fries my wife wanted for valentines day. I did skim though the menu before ordering and everything was fairly priced. The service was top notch and the workers freely conversed with the patrons. The place gave off the vibe of what Carson was like in the 80s. People just getting along. My order only took 5 minutes to make and it was very hot. It took me 30 minutes to drive to my wife's workplace when we started to dig in. The food was still warm at that time so that was good. Fries were salted just enough, cheese was gooey, and the Carne Asada was very delicous and juicy. My wife kept raving about the asada fries during her lunch break haha. My father and I used to drop by here in the 90s. Looks like I'll be bringing my wife and kids here and show them whats up :) read more

When you find a place where the sheriff's finest go for breakfast, you know the spot is legit. The service is the best for warm friendly take care of you down home goodness. Plenty of parking along the side and in back. There's a drive-thru for takeout orders. Inside is clean and simple. Go up to the counter, the menu board is easy to read. Order, pay and have a seat. There's also a covered patio along the front. I had your basic, scramble eggs, bacon, home fried potatoes and buttered toast. Delicious. The bacon had just the right amount of crispy existence. "What do you mean existence?" The bacon thought it existed and so it did, crispy and all. I was asked what kind of toast and I said white and Rosie the super friendly one asked "buttered?" Oh, yes! My food arrived a couple of minutes later with a smile. And they check up on your often to make sure your coffee (or other needs) are in check. I'll be back to try lunch. read more

It's a neighborhood favorite located on Main Street and 220th in Carson. I grew up patronizing Ted's Burgers and as my parents and I are on the verge of saying goodbye to the South Bay, I have to leave a review. I've frequently gotten zucchini fries, chili cheese fries, and horchata at this Ted's. It's like home. It might not be the crispiest fries or as much meat or cheese as I would like, but the staff are friendly, always cooked to order, and still satisfying. There is just something incredibly comforting knowing I can just find myself here after school or church or before choir practice growing up. Still a fan! read more

You can load up your tacos with as much onion and cilantro as you want, plus they have radishes and lime wedges available. They also offer two salsas, a red and a green. Both tasted good and had solid flavor, although I was hoping for a little more heat. Overall, it's a solid taco spot, especially on Taco Tuesday. Good variety of meats, reasonable prices, and plenty of toppings to customize your tacos. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area and craving some tacos.

When they finally handed me my food, it was still in a bag even though my order was for dine-in, and I had to remind them to give me my drinks. They also forgot to include salsa for the chips. What really frustrated me was being told that next time I should just go to the counter after ordering at the kiosk. As a first-time customer, how was I supposed to know that?

The burritos were around $13 each and I shared one with my mom. I liked that it had sour cream in it. I saw tortilla chips being freshly fried. The burrito came with a small side of chips with salsa. The bad: It's cash only. The burrito was a bit too wet inside. I would've liked for the texture to be less mushy.I would've liked more crunch from more lettuce, tomato or raw onion perhaps. My husband wanted twice the amount of meat. The interesting: For drinks they have jamaica and horchata. The interior feels like a blast to the past. It's simple, bright and has carpeted floor. The worker there was friendly.

Definitely an old school mom and pop shop.

The bleached hair lady kept waving her hand at me to wait while she was boxing up orders coming out of the kitchen. My order was already at the pickup station but she chose to ignore me 10min. All she had to do was give me my order that was already done and go back to boxing up orders coming out. Food is good but don't expect any type of customer service at this location.

My partner and I stopped by Cafe 86 in Carson hoping we had found our next go-to halo-halo spot…read more Unfortunately, authenticity and customer service were both missing from the recipe. Parking was easy, and when we walked in, there was only one occupied table. Three employees were chatting in the back. We were greeted, but it felt more like, "What would you like?" than "Welcome in." No smile, no conversation, no thank you--just a transaction. After taking our order, the employee returned to chatting with coworkers. When our order was ready, our name was called, the halo-halo was placed on the counter, and that was the end of the interaction. As for the halo-halo itself, my partner rated it a 2/10. It was overwhelmingly sweet and overpriced for what we received. We were hoping for layers of flavor and nostalgia but got a sugar rush that could probably power a small city. As a business owner myself, I understand that customer service is one of the biggest drivers of customer retention. Great products can bring people in once, but great service brings them back. Unfortunately, this visit missed the mark on both. The good news? These issues are fixable. A little more warmth, engagement, and hospitality would go a long way. Until then, we'll continue our search for our next favorite halo-halo spot.

I wish I really wish I would've had it and they have incredible tacos. They have a menu that literally is so big you could park a car on it... Maybe that didn't make sense but you get my point. The next thing I tried they have special crafted sodas. I ordered the cola but when I ate my french fries and I gobbled my burger down I washed it down with some delicious sweet crispy co-op.
