Teddy's in Oshawa is a gem with an extensive menu that offers something for everyone, plus amazing service. We ordered the sirloin burger with sides and the Reuben sandwich. The burger came with Caesar salad, fries, and corned beef and cabbage soup. The Caesar salad and fries were excellent—fresh and crispy. The soup was flavorful, albeit a touch salty, and the burger, while decent, lacked a bit of flavor. Their homemade gravy, though, was absolutely delicious and paired perfectly with fries. The Reuben sandwich was the real standout—absolutely 5 stars. The meat was tender, the rye bread incredibly fresh, and the coleslaw was perfectly balanced—not too tangy or sweet. And their coffee? It easily beats Tim Hortons and McDonald's. On top of the great food, the staff are fantastic—so friendly and helpful, making the experience even better. If I lived closer, Teddy's would be a weekly stop for its great food, variety, and welcoming atmosphere. Highly recommend checking it out.

Had Teddy's turkey dinner, first time ordering. I loved it. Stuffing, turkey, white and dark meat, mashed potatoes, carrots, gravy. I used skip. Missing items, chocolate cake, cranberry sauce, and Cole slaw. Not sure if Teddy's forgot or the skip driver took it. 🤔 The large gravy was 8.99 and was super small. Way over priced. I only ordered it because I figured they wouldn't put enough gravy on my turkey and mashed potatoes, which they didn't. I'd probably go into the restaurant next time so I could address any issues. Would order again but stop overcharging for such a small amount of gravy.

I had the pleasure of enjoying an early Christmas dinner, and it was an absolute delight. The meal was exceptional—each dish prepared to perfection and served at the ideal temperature. The salad was fresh, complemented by the house dressing, and the free Pepsi refills were a nice touch. As part of the Turkey Tuesday special, I was treated to a slice of coconut cream pie, which was wonderfully rich with just the right hint of crunch. The ambiance of the restaurant matched the quality of the food. It was cozy and peaceful, with the gentle hum of dining activity providing a pleasant background noise, reminiscent of rain on a tin roof. The service was outstanding. From the warm welcome by the hostess to the attentive and friendly server, every detail was handled with care. No dish was left unattended for long, as the staff efficiently cleared plates without disrupting the experience. Their professionalism truly stood out. Overall, I had a wonderful dinner and an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend visiting and treating yourself to a meal here!

The best comfort feeling from the second you walk in the door until you walk out! This is the classic family diner feel you want with every meal you eat out! From the welcoming we received from the hostess to the greeting and service from both our waitress and the manager(talk about an eye for detail) we could not have received better service. The food was too die for felt like I was eating straight from grandmas kitchen! Me and my wife both had the succulent sirloin roast dinner and it was far larger than described and every bite was amazing! Also included with our meals was a good size portion of house salad as a starter and a dinner roll which I forgot to grab a photo of before diving in! The house salad had a homemade dressing and it was by far the best house dressing I’ve ever had! We were there on my wife’s birthday so received a slice of their fresh made that morning from scratch coconut cream pie on the house! The pie was again to die for perfect coconut custard topped with a great amount of whipped cream and toasted coconut! There is literally nothing I could possibly say that wasn’t perfect about teddys there is a reason they have been in business for 4 decades! Absolutely recommend this diner to anyone and everyone I can’t wait to go back!

I have been to Teddy's many times over the years. Surprised I've never left a review. Be prepared on a weekend or a weekday during the lunch rush to have a lineup to get in. Yes it's that good, and it's worth the wait. The line generally moves quick and you can choose from one of their many dishes. This time we opted for: BBQ Beef Melt with roast potatoes Clubhouse and coleslaw Pizza Burger with roast potatoes All of the portions were enormous. The open face pizza food was superb. The BBQ Beef Melt was loaded with meat on a fresh bun. We didn't get any pie this time but I'm a huge fan of the strawberry pie and my other half loves the coconut cream pie. It's 10/10.

We found this place by accident (no I didn't trip and fell into the restaurant lol) and we're so glad we did because apparently this place has been an Oshawa institution for over 4 decades. we absolutely love places like this because it is made to serve the community by people who love the community. You will be treated like family when you come here regardless of what walk of life you came from. You will leave full and with takeout because their portions are large and you will not leave poor because their prices are very reasonable. I will make every excuse I can to come here as often as I can and encourage everyone to do the same because we need to keep places like this open forever. I attempted the burger challenge and obviously failed because it's a massive portion. You should try it because the price itself is very reasonable for the amount of food you get and you're basically getting 2-3 meals.

Sherry was a great waitress. Very funny and made our evening out with friends an even better experience. Went again and ordered the Ultimate Burger Challange. If you eat in 25 mins get free coconut cream pie. This burger was delicious. A must try. Food

I have nothing but horrible things to say about this establishment. but the main thing to know is, if you are a person of color, avoid this establishment at all costs. The staff were noticeably ruder to me - the white couple ahead of us were treated with all smiles , but the second it was my turn you could see the smile on the waitresss face drop. Every question was answered with a short quick reply. Didnt even acknowledge when i thanked her. I watched tables who ordered before me receive their meal, while we had to wait. I dont know what person in the right mind would want to eat here after this kind of treatment.

Update 2024. Like fine wine, Teddys gets better with age. Its been a few years since I had the pleasure of dining here, and it was as great as I remember. I had the 1lb deli sandwich, and it was great! 4.5 Solid experience. I tried going here a while ago, and the line-up was almost out the door. Im not waiting 45 minutes. This time I chose my time a bit more carefully and was rewarded by no wait, and a restaurant that was just ending its lunch rush. Of course a busy place is never a bad thing. Slow restaurants make me nervous. Food was really good, I had the Philly steak sandwich, and my eating partner has the Teddy burger, which is a burger with bacon. Both were very reasonably priced, prepared the way they should be, not overly salty or over cooked. Portions seemed small because the plate was large! I was stuffed after. Cheryl was very nice, super quick and made sure we were taken care of. Food came out faster than I expected, which is always a nice surprise. Seating was good, lots of booths, which always seem in short supply at other restaurants. Would definitely go back, there are so many items on the menu worth trying.

.The observation of someones outerwear/appearance, does not qualify service to condescend upon being a local thats hungry, and paid to eat many times at a fixture/hub called Teddys. There was no name request upon original call for ordering, just a phone number, and once entered, the wanting to pay for good food, was looked down upon in tones of judgment on an almost $90.00 bill, as they attempted to correct my specifications. I then had to remind them, that I am a Google Maps Guide at a level 7 (Internationally),and can affect your rating, if youre rude to me for no reason, despite me being polite. Sarcasm of, after a moral correction of, - was Have a Nice Day Sir, prompted me to rerate the experience. Until my next order, if handled with the same down the nose experience, will not allow me to buy more, and a lower rating of customer service will remain even lower... Otherwise, Teddys is good food, often an older crowd of clicks/locals, kempt, and the artworks or classic photos from earlier American Pop culture, is dynamic and interesting... Youd make more money, if you didnt act coldly, and treated every customer, unknown or not, with equal respect and dignity. 3 attempts to condescend a single and expensive pickup order, will definitely cost you business, so next time, please treat me as an equal human, Thank You...and You, have a great day Maam...3 days later...-it was a failure, of course...i now have to reiterate the rating..as, during my caregiving, i have to let them know I will no longer set foot in this space as a Google Maps Guide laughed at, and mocked/served before a seperate customer i was there before..rudely, as Im secretly spoken about. The almost $100.00 order can be picked up by the person themselves, whos failing health, can walk up those stairs of YuppieVille and condescension, because my pride is more powerful than Neanderthal. Spit in his food, because Im Not eating it without apology. Thank You though...Have a Nice Day.

o NOT order delivery from TEDDYS. They have no tracking and no control over the drivers. Lots of excuses . Not their fault. . . After 1 hour of being told it s on the way . I was refunded but they didn t know if the order would be delivered. SERIOUSLY ? I had family hungry and waiting. After 20 years I ll never eat there again. I know Teddys isn t the family owned restaurant it was but the incompetent management is beyond belief. They ve destroyed 50 years of service to the community.

We ve been to Teddy s Restaurant & Deli a few times, and we were so excited to go back and try their new menu items! Our experience was awesome and our waitress, Tracy, was the sweetest so friendly and genuinely attentive. She made us feel like we were right at home. That kind of service just makes you want to keep coming back (thats why were back~)! Teddy s has been a local staple for over a couple decades, and it s easy to see why. The portions are huge, the prices are great, and the vibe is so cozy, like you re eating in a family kitchen. Every time we come here, a lineup is a normal sight. Here s what we got into this time around: New Menu Items: Avocado Turkey Club Melt: This was a total hit! Creamy avocado, juicy turkey, and perfectly toasted bread it was fresh, filling, and delicious. Teddy s Cobb Salad: Super satisfying! Packed with fresh ingredients and plenty of protein, this salad is great if you re in the mood for something a bit lighter but still filling. Blueberry Crumble Cheesecake (Limited Time): Wow, this dessert was everything we hoped for! Creamy cheesecake with a blueberry topping and the perfect crumble. It s a must-try if you re a cheesecake fan grab it while it s on the menu! And of course, we couldn t leave without ordering some classics: Coconut Dreams Shake: This shake tastes like a tropical vacation in a glass! So creamy and full of coconut flavor. Perfect treat to go with the meal! Classic Hot Sandwich (Mom s all-time fave): Total comfort food. The tender meat, soft bread, and rich gravy are just right. Mom gets it every time and never regrets it! Strawberry Pie (my favorite): I can t leave Teddy s without a slice of this. The crust is perfectly flaky, and the strawberries are so fresh. It s the best way to end a meal here. So, whether you re trying their new items or sticking with the classics, Teddy s is always a win. If you re in Oshawa, you ve gotta stop by! You ll leave happy, full, and probably already planning your next visit.

I have been going to Teddys for years worth my family and friends. We always enjoyed the food and service until today. I learned that if you want more that one little cup of mayonnaise for anything, like the turkey club, the limit is 1 per customer. If I go again I will bring my own mayonnaise. Is there some shortage Im not aware of? When the waitress told me I thought she was joking but the manager \ new owners have put a hidden policy in place. If they have started cutting corners for condiments then what else are they doing that we dont know about. Was enjoying the time out with my family until that point. Call ahead if you want extra anything! They didnt even give is the opportunity to by extra which I thought was extremely odd. Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp and 2 accessible parking spots but food drivers park there as its near the take out.

I am writing on behalf of my family who ordered $150.00 worth of dinner this evening for a birthday. My family and I are so disappointed in the food quality from Teddys. It s been years since we ve ordered and we recently thought it would be great to try their food again for a birthday celebration. We ordered dinner for 6 people. First and foremost, the French fries were warm and soggy. None of us ate them. My mother ordered the sirloin and it was warm and tough. My step dad also tried a bite and confirmed it was chewy and had hard fat in the middle (photo shown before I gave it to my Labrador for dinner). We typically eat higher qualities of meat from local farms and this meal reminded us why we don t usually eat out. The chicken salad club sandwich was horrible. This was my meal. The chicken salad was extremely salty. Also, the sandwich was wrapped up in tinfoil paper and when I opened it the bread was wet and soggy with the chicken salad slopped all over the inside. Lastly, my son had the children s spaghetti and red meat sauce. My grandmother, mother, step father, husband and brother all couldn t believe the portion of the sauce that was slopped on top of the warm noodles. Two tablespoons at best. I ended up opening a can of red sauce at my moms and making more so my young child could enjoy a proper pasta dish. Teddys quality has gone downhill significantly over the years. As a young woman who grew up in Oshawa, going to Teddys decades ago was such a treat. I have fond memories of having family meals at the restaurant and at home as their food was fresh, hot and tasty. This experience has been terrible and very saddening as we were looking forward to a nice family birthday meal. My family and I feel as if our time and money has been wasted as food was thrown out and food had to be remade or cooked in order to enjoy it. We will never eat at Teddys again. We wouldn t recommend this restaurant to family and friends or anyone in the community. Very low quality ingredients and foods.

It s not always easy to put certain comments or annoyances behind us in the moment) We haven t dined in recently but food is always great when we order for pick up. Portion sizes for a 2 piece Chicken Parm feeds the two us sometimes leftovers! Only because we also order multiple soups. Their soup is actually probably the top reason why we order from here Anyways, full belly tonight! Happy! Thank you Teddy s.

We have always loved eating at Teddys Restaurant, and enjoy it even more now with the excellent Sunday morning breakfast. We were thrilled this week to be welcomed by James, who along with his father are the new owners of Teddys. We like Teddys even more under the new management where the servers no longer wear those awful burgundy costumes. This is such a friendly restaurant. The menu still has long time favourites on it but has also introduced new dishes. Bravo, Teddys Restaurant !

Every time I order from them, something is always wrong and they re very expensive and good luck getting any sort of refund. Tonight I ordered slices of the strawberry pie in which three desserts came none of which was what I ordered. I was lied to and told that they tried to call me and it went straight to voicemail, which I don t have voicemail so clearly nobody tried to call me. The desserts that they sent even if they sent two of each slice, it would equate to the price of the strawberry pie so either way I got completely ripped off as I usually do by this restaurant

Felt very uncomfortable. Portions were very small. Not very tasty. And I asked for a proper take out container to bring a large fries home insted of a tiny frie top open hand held type of frie holder. I had to pay $1.50 for the container. Not to mention. I ordered 1 fountain drink, 1 large fries and grave, 1 cheese curd poutine. Then a large fries to go and a tiny little gravy to go. That was $30.90 with text. Then I paid like I said $1.50. For the container for the fries. Absolutely appalled with this whole experience. The 2 customers had mentioned the portions of food change up for theor orders each time they go. All in all I think they try here. But its not my cup of tea. Save your money and cook at home. Good luck Vegetarian options: Salad and remove most of the items from them. Bring your own dressing Dietary restrictions: Dont really have accommodation for dietary restrictions. You just have to find something that you can eat or dont eat Kid-friendliness: Never was given a kid menue or told of one when there. I have my child with me.

We had a wonderful dinner here tonight! There were two couples and we had to wait about 10 minutes to get a table. They do not take reservations. I had three veal parmesan and it was absolutely wonderful. There was more food than I am used to eating. The veal was tender, the spaghetti was perfectly cooked. The sauce was wonderful! The four of us shared one piece of strawberry pie since the ladies only wanted a bite each. We still struggled to eat it all! My mother ordered a half portion and my wife took half of her meal home! Dad did not complete his whole meal but there wasnt enough left to package up. Well done Teddys staff! Special thanks to Shelley, our waitress. The food came quickly and our water was topped up regularly. All that and a very pleasant demeanor also. All these little things mean so much. It was a wonderful experience.

Do you know when you have to concede to the fact that one of your favourite restaurants (for your entire) life has gone downhill and isn t worth the money they charge? Sorry Teddys. I ve given you numerous times to make it up but it just is what it is. After calling to speak to the manager they told me that none of their recipes have changed and that everything is the same as the original owners. Not true. To top it all off, only one soup available seems to be available now, chicken veg. And they ve managed to ruin that somehow also. The soup is around $7, and this is without a spoonful missing. Brutal

Horriorrible service by Maureen. Rude. Condescending. Such a crusty behaviour. Showed no respect. I ordered coconut pie, should be simple. I came with 5 other folks. But I felt like she didnt want to take my order. Everyone else had their full plates served first. Then she delivered mine the last. When I asked for my order she argued with me downplaying my order in a very rude and crusty manner. When I finished my pie, she didnt take away my plate even though mine was done first and my plate is the closest one to her path. This is a very bad service. Not impressed at all. She shouldnt be working like this. If every Server is like this, Teddys reputation will be tarnished.

I dined here on March 15, 2024. I had the Chipotle Turkey Club Wrap, which was tasty, but I had the worst food poisoning for the following two days - so awful that I almost ended up at the hospital. My partner did call the restaurant to let them know, and they were apologetic, but it doesn t change the fact that I won t be back.

Ive been twice. 2nd time I noticed the prices. Side of fries 5.25 and it was so small. I understand prices inflation. But 6 meals all had fries for 5 bucks each. And it wasnt even bigger then McDonalds small fries. Kinda disappointed food was fine. Hot service was great. Just ticked me off. Seeing everyones plates with no fries. Kinda like they didnt make enough and just tried to get our 6 meals out together vs waiting for more fries. Idk.

I remember from years past the liver was my favourite meal at Teddys. This time the liver was 1/2 as thick as before so I should have ordered it rare since medium cooked it right through. The mashed potatoes were not totally mashed as there was a large chunk in there. The gravy was good but too much. The onions were nicely done. Dessert was the best ~ strawberry compilation ~ awesome.

Teddys was recommended by a local dealership and they were spot on! What a wonderful restaurant in the heart of Oshawa. Prices are reasonable and portions were plentiful. Many patrons around me were taking leftovers home. Very fast service from the time you arrive till you receive your check. Wait staff continually check on you to see if everything is alright. You was told but didn t ask, they do not serve alcohol but cannot confirm. Highly recommend Teddy s! Parking: Restaurant is located adjacent to a strip mall so there is free parking. I was there during the week day and restaurant was not too busy so there appeared to be plenty of parking. Wheelchair accessibility: I noticed a few people with walkers and one in a wheelchair.

Will never order the roast beef sirloin meal again. Theyve switched from frozen peas, to CANNED and theyre HARD. Yuck! But the roast was amazing as always. Cost goes up, quality goes down. These are a dull olive green colour, whereas before, they were grass/bright green. Those definitely werent frozen or fresh. Also TASTED canned. I love peas. I can definitely tell the difference

Teddys is a fantastic place to eat. We usually eat there almost every week. Thursday my parents ate dinner there, to start with their order came out and it was not what they order at all. My dad order was salad to start, came with the wrong dressing and came in a dixi cup for salad dressing (anyone who eats teddys dressing knows you dont do small amounts ) then his dinner came out he had ordered roast sirloin and roasted potatoes and peas. He got roast sirloin and mixed veggies and mash. Then sent it back and got Liver and bacon and roast potatoes and peas. So to make up for the confusion he was told he would get a second desert because one already came with their dinner. He got desert to go. He only got one piece and whip cream was melted all over the pie. Usually they do not put whipcream on the pie when it is take out. So normally its very good here, not sure what happened.

We will not ve back due to poor service and severely declined quality. We were 3 adults just before Dinner rush started. We each had a sandwich or burger with a side and drink. We could only choke down half our meal because it was very low quality. The grumpy waitress bought my side salad to the table 25 minutes before anybody else got food. She just dropped it and walked away before I could say a word. It was DRENCHED in dressing and clearly not fresh! The salad was comped (great) as it was inedible. Please improve your food quality to what it once was. Teddys is just another overpriced restaurant now. So sad to see what its become :(
