Ted's Place — Restaurant in Lomita

The food was fresh - I'll give them that.

I asked for my vegetarian omelette a certain way that it seemed the chef agreed to, but then he didn't do it that way, and when I saw and mentioned this, he told me not to tell him how to fo his job.

I like my omelettes the classic way - all fillings including meats if any, veggies snd cheese all folded inside the egg patty AFTER the egg patty is cooked, NOT MIXED into the eggs! Once he understood this, he said that's way too much work!!!

How is holding back the fillings until the end and then folding them in that much extra work??

The cheese wasn't very flavorful either, way too mild. The vegetables were mixed in with the eggs. To me that's not an omelette but rather a scramble.

I'm sure that other dishes there that are made the way customers expect are probably good, but spinach/veggie omelettes are one of my favorite dishes when done right. It's important to me. This was not done right, and I don't like the chef's attitude.

As it stands I don't plan to go here again unless this can be cleared up, even though their salads look tempting in the puctures on their menu board.

I don't think customers should be...

This place normally serves good teriyaki plates. Everyone has an off day though, originally I ordered two plates to go with curly fries. I knew something was off because it was taking longer than usual. When I got home everything looked normal the chicken was cooked perfectly and tasted good I noticed that there was minimal rice, but no big deal. Our plates were made and, as we all started to eat there was something about the rice. At that moment the delay all tied in together and explained why the one cook was rushing around with plates. The rice was cooked, undercooked, mushy, and watery all at the same time. I call to notify them for 20mins but I guess they were closed. Since my daughter had made our plates she mixed the chicken with the rice, so we had to toss the meal and we had sandwiches instead to go with the curly fries which were perfect.

I did call the following day, and they replaced the order, but it still wasn't any better. Hence the reason I only go like 1-2 a...

This place is filthy and disgusting very poorly managed and unsanitary inside and outside I don’t see how people eat here. The soda machine is disgusting and tastes extremely awful. They made my fries way before my actual food was cooked and ready therefore were served cold with absolutely too much salt. There were dead bugs all over especially in the windows and ugh the furniture just wreaked of bed bugs! There was hair on my food container…hands down disgusting even where they prepared the food was disgustingly filthy and just nasty!! I feel like I got a slight food poisoning right after I ate my food my stomach was immediately in discomfort. When I looked at the lettuce and tomatoes on my sandwich it wasn’t fresh at all I threw out the other half! I honestly don’t see how this place is allowed to operate I will never ever stop here again!
