Overall food was pretty good. The chicken parm was delicious! The only issue we had was the garlic knots were absolutely terrible. They were a waste of money. Dry and hard.

This place is a staple for Salads, Sandwiches, and Pizza. The Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Pizza is awesome. Do you have kids? If so, this is the only place you can go where your kids are distracted by the sandbox, and you can have a pseudo date night. They also have a great dessert selection. My favorite is the rotating beer special and the meatball sliders!

Ted’s Most Best was Ted’s Most Aight. Had the mushroom pizza and beet salad. Pizza was so- so and the salad would have been better if not drenched in vinegar. Ted’s needs to get better signage as well because this place difficult to find. I was meeting some colleagues here and circled the block 5 times before calling my coworker and she helped me find it. Only way to know you are at right place is when you are behind the wall and see the neon TED sign. Not easy to find when driving in busy downtown.

Cool, funky setting. The flavors here are complex, not really a kid's pizza joint. The marinara had a smoky, almost curried flavor - very interesting. The salad and house dressing are fresh but a lot of the breads were dry. I enjoyed the antipasto with lots of fancy meats and olives. They had some great looking desserts in the case and I tried the banana pudding cupcake. While I think everything is a pretty solid three here, those cupcakes were a FIVE!

So far, the best pizza in Athens. I really don't understand anything else other than thin crusted pizza. And Ted has a good approach to that. Service is minimal. After we sat down, nobody came to our table. You have to walk to the counter, grab a menu, and order there. They do bring the food to your table, and service is REALLY FAST when there is less crowd. I will definitely come here again to try the other pizzas. We ordered the margarita with sliced meatball and Florentine with pepperoni. Yes, sometimes you have to order the meat separately.

What a surprise! I walked up because of the smells and the atmosphere, I was disappointed that it was thin crust (as I have never loved thin crust) but was happily surprised with the flavors. Honestly, a fuller crust may have taken away from this. I was a little apprehensive of the prices as well, however, it ended up doing the trick for my husband and I. All around, I was impressed and probably will go back again.

We came to Athens for a little day trip. TMB was highly recommended by multiple locals and Google. Had the chicken parm sub. Did not like it. It was very bland and dry. The breaded chicken really wasn't breaded, and it didn't have enough sauce. I had to add salt, crushed red pepper, and ranch (which costs $1 for a little container, why?) to make it taste like something. I only ate half before i gave up on it. The kids had pizza and spaghetti. They also didn't eat but about half. The desserts: Banana pudding was good. The cake pop was not. Caramel cheesecake was good. The service was amazing, and that goes a long way. The atmosphere was cool. I won't be coming back. Overall, nothing to rave about or to recommend to anyone.

I went here with some of my friends after watching a movie at Ciné. It is close by to the movie theatre and has delicious Italian-style pizzas. I got the Perellea pizza which hit the spot. The pizzas are small so it is best to order 1 per person. They also have other food options like pasta. There is a lot of seating, both indoor and outdoor, with a sandbox for kids to play in outside as well. You order at the counter and then the food is brought to your table. This is a good restaurant to visit in downtown Athens if you are looking for a more casual meal. It is a great place to visit with a group because of all the seating.

Great food at a great price! This was our first visit, but we would definitely eat here again. We had the garlic knots as our appetizer. Go ahead and get the dozen because they are small. It comes with garlic butter and marinara for dipping. Pretty good, but they could use a bit more garlic. For our entrees, we tried the meatball sub and the polpetta pizza. Both were delicious.

We love getting a meatball sandwich w a side salad. Both are excellent and we each take a half of sandwich home.
