Ted's Restaurant, a Birmingham institution, celebrates 50 years
Ted’s Restaurant, one of Birmingham’s landmark eateries, is celebrating 50 years of business.
It’s not unusual to see a line of patrons ready to get their fill of homestyle Southern cooking seasoned with old-style Greek hospitality at Ted’s. People say they come for the food and stay for the tradition at this eatery, which has seen dedicated owners work to make the restaurant what it is today.
So what exactly is the secret behind 50 years of success for Ted’s, which offers breakfast, brunch and lunch?
“It’s our dedication to our customers and the Birmingham community. They are like family to us, and we are constantly looking for ways to better serve them, whether it’s cooking up someone’s Saturday morning regular or supporting local charities,” said Beba Touloupis, who runs the business with her husband, Tasos.
