The absolute greatest burgers in Iowa City. Cooked to order, and perfect with pineapple and American cheese. One of the best I've ever had anywhere. The fries are great too. I love the shakes, but they're a little pricy. Edit: Teddy's is now CLOSED. How did we allow this to happen? We keep three different Cacti in business (despite their vast crimes against Mexican cuisine) but not this?! This is the worst disaster to befall Iowa City since the river flooded.

if you order takeout, your burgers will be soggy everytime. i did it twice and they always are soggy because of the sauce. definitely go in person or ask for sauce on the side.

Probably my favorite burger and fries in Iowa City. The burgers are fantastic, the special sauce is delicious, the fries (both regular and garlic) are perfectly crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, the shakes are the right consistency. Also, one of the few places that has pink lemonade as a regular soft drink. Love this place.

The onion rings here may be some of the best I've ever had. They were incredible. The burgers were also very good and had plenty of different options. The prices were a little expensive, but overall worth it.

The food was good. My tots were extra crispy. The fire bbq sauce wasn't very spicy. Don't be afraid.

Normally a good burger, but as you can see from the photo it is far from the Medium Well burger I ordered. In addition, Grub hub picked up the order at 4:49 and delivered it at 6:04. No ice left in the cola's and food had to be reheated in the microwave. Hate to think k what the burger looked like before it was nuked for 60 seconds. Very disappointed.

So disappointed. Have enjoyed them in the past and my husband and I had started making a habit of this splurge at the end of the week. Photo's are captioned, but the hamburger wasn't cooked (ordered MW - got something nearly raw); received it almost an hour after the estimated delivery time - which was an hour and 15 minutes after it was picked up by the driver. Might give the restaurant a second chance (the burgers are usually good). Won't use Grub Hub again until they change their app so you can tip AFTER the service is provided not in advance of it.

Perfect visit. Burger was delicious, fries were crisp, and the signature sauce never disappoints.

The onion rings were great. I got a 1/3 cheeseburger with bacon and sauted onions. Along with root beer float. Cost me just under $19. I wanted to try it and was not pleased at the cost for the flavor I got. I will stick to a nicer sit down restaurant or stick to star light. Same meal would of tasted way better for $13

Amazing burger, their secret burger sauce is unbelievable! However the food super super SLOW. Average wait time is about 15-20 minutes. Recommend order through phone call and pick up after about 15 minutes. A little pricey as well but the burgers worth the price.
Burger was good, shake and fries as well. They almost lost one star for not being located in Hawaii. We could have used the pick me up on this snowy winter day. But I appreciate the throw back to eating at their restaurant on the island.

Fantastic Job!The cook is amazing. It is very rare that you eat food that stops you in your tracks. This is one of those places. Make sure the cook has white glasses. I live over an hour and a half away. I am sitting here, right now, contemplating on driving back just to eat at this restaurant. I think I'm literally broken because we don't have this place where I live.

Pretty good burgers and fries. I had the Hawkeye burger and it was very flavorful. Worth a stop before an Iowa game.

My favorite thing about Teddy's is that since the day it opened years ago until now it has been CONSISTENT!! The food has stayed the same, tasted the same, since day one. As a picky eater I REALLY appreciate that. The food is always fresh & hot no matter when you order. I don't think I have ever had them mess up an order either. Cheese fries with real cheese sauce & Huge, thick shakes. One of my favorite places in town.
