It&#39;s a pleasure to talk about this &quot;mom and pop&quot; store. Authentic and unique. The taste of the Roti and soup can not be duplicated. It&#39;s like being in a &quot;Trinidad&quot; family&#39;s house for dinner. Host was kind and courteous and I will make this a stop every time I&#39;m in the DC, Maryland, VA area. Great food and experience.

I have eaten at Ledo pizza for years... Decades.... Many Decades. &quot;Square pizzas because we don&#39;t cut corners&quot; That was the motto I was accustom to seeing and hearing.I have consumed more pizza and wings than anything else here. Salads and sandwiches were a close second. Why step out of the box?!? Why!!!! I consumed quite a bit of &quot;sports bar food&quot; over the weekend and attempted to eat a little lighter during the week. Pasta and salad! I saw that the menu has been revamped and decided to go for the Bolognese and a side salad. They have an open kitchen and I have a habit of watching my food as it is being prepared. Really clean kitchen! It was great to see that items were made from recipes that were assembled in house versus pre-made items. What I graciously received was an extremely large and hot portion of fettuccine tossed in a standard and slightly sweet tomato sauce with ground beef topped off with a chiffonade of basil and grated Parmesan cheese. Simple meat sauce but not a great Bolognese. I searched and searched for panchetta or even diced carrots and onions but to no avail. According to the website, only beef is used in the sauce. Not a bad sauce but I truly expected more. I guess if they used pork products it would alienate a portion of the guest. I looked at their menu, when I returned to my home, and compared the &quot;Spaghetti to the Bolognese. They appear to use a meatless version of their sauce for everything else. Not a problem. Simple tossed salad with iceberg, cherry tomatoes, sliced red onions and croutons.... Pre-made and sitting in the cooler..... Just a little saddened that portions of the lettuce was a little on the brown side. I would return here because the pizza is great! it&#39;s one of my childhood comfort foods. Heck! As a child I even worked here when it was a Pizza Hut!

My friend and love fish and been a Trini I wanted some down home food, a roti. I did my research and found Teddy&#39;s. Teddy&#39;s fulfilled my taste and desire. We got the stew fish dinner with rice and peas lunch dinner with a sea moss drink. The dinner was very good. The server was exceptional from start to beginning. We chose to takeout our roti dinner. That roti reminded me of my Mom&#39;s roti, it tasted good abs you can eat it by itself. I had mine with the goat meat and potatoes. Overall Teddy&#39;s Roti Shop did live up to its name. When in DC please check them out. They are right on the bus line. We took the train to the bus and it was very easy. Kudos Teddy&#39;s Roti Shop for making my day. When next I visit DC, this is one of my stops. Thanks for the memories.

This is a small family run place with only a few tables to sit at. Mostly a takeout type of place but with some of the best West Indian food in DC. I particularly enjoy the Bussupshut with either goat or conch. They make a truly good roti bread and I&#39;ve tried many. The doubles and the aloo pies are also very good and quite large. I probably never walk out of there spending less than $30 but the portions are quite large and can be made into multiple meals.

This review is for the M Street location, which has become a steady addition to our lunch repertoire. The staff is unfailingly friendly (and know us by name by now...) and the soups are delicious. I love that they have such a variety of soups - about 5-6 to choose from every day, and they change the menu every day. We always do take out and eat back at the office, I would probably not recommend eat in because the counter space is tiny and right by the door.
