Ted's Fish Fry — Restaurant in City of Albany

I went to the location on western Ave for the first time and was met buy what I believe to be ignorance and tad bit of racism. I walked in not knowing where to order and was met by who I believe is the owner or manager and told how I order, the an older white man scurries in behind me as I'm moving up to order he shoots passed me to place his order without acknowledging that I was even there and places his order with the man who was taking orders, and even then that person didn't even acknowledge that I was there first. The man who ordered before me had place an order that was bigger than the one fish I ordered, he pulled out $20 and was told his order was $2.75. That bugged me out because I only ordered 1 fish fry and he ordered 2 fish, onion rings, and coleslaw, Meanwhile I paid $7 for one fish. I couldn't do anything but laugh at the pitiful duo because I was hungry and don't eat other meat. All of the years since the 1980's eating at a teds have I ever felt that me and my money were disrespected. To the person who took my order, you are heard loud and clear we are...

Its been years since we ate at a Ted's Fish Fry, and now I remember why: It was a below average meal. Friday night, 5:15pm, a steady line, so it should have been the freshest food coming out, right? Not. I got the seafood dinner, and my wife got the fried clam dinner. The fries were old and barely warm. The clams on both plates were unevenly cooked, and some parts were undercooked, stuck together and doughy (yuck!). My wife's coleslaw had a strange plastic taste and did not look like my slaw, so that went into the trashcan. Then they throw an old, stale HOT DOG roll on the side. WHY? Who eats that? On the seafood dinner, the small butterfly shrimp were a frozen product like from the local grocery store, not fresh shrimp. The fish was decent, and I will say that the scallops were terrific. The restaurant was clean, and that's the only reason it got 2 stars instead of 1. For $36, you expect a better fish meal, especially if that's...

This new location operates much like Ted's other locations especially re menu choices. My wife and I each had the fish fry lunch combo to go with fries, slaw and drink for under $10. We reheated everything when we got home and it did not suffer at all. The fish fry was very good. The fish seemed very fresh as was the bun.The fries were tasty as was the small side of slaw. Condiments provided in the take out bag without having to ask but no napkins or plastic ware provided. Probably have to take those yourself but since we were going home that didn't matter. Tartar sauce was excellent. Cocktail sauce unusual and spicy. Choice of bottled soda. The only downside is they don't do curbside service. Both indoor and outdoor seating but outdoor was a little too close to Western Ave traffic and noise for us. Basically this is a place that gives you what you expect at...
