When you get food that is not what you ordered, or not up to your standards do

I go back to ask for the correct stuff, they messed up so they should also fix it. No matter whether it's fast food or not, it's still a restaurant.

Hello,uniquenorthern,if the food i get is not what i ordered,i may eat it anyway if i do not dislike the food i get,i do not want to go back to ask them to make me a new one. If the food i get is not up to standard,for example,if it is not fully cooked,i will ask them to make me another one.I think we have the right to ask for another one or get the refund.

I go back and make them correct my order. I don't have alot of money to waste because someone else fails to do their job correctly. I see no reason why I should have to pay for something twice when they should have gotten it right the first time. I even let the manager know how upset I am that I have to wait twice as long as I should have because the couldn't get the job right the first time. If this happens just once or twice I don't make that much of a big deal about it. Because I understand accidents happen. But there is one fast food restaurant here that I take my children to that always messes up my order. I would go to a different one but this is the one my children like and since I don't allow them to have fast food that often I think that they should get what they want.

I got sick of my food not being served to me correctly. They always added extra ingredients or left something off. So these days when I order my food I order everything plain. I figure they should be able to get that right. Its nice and simple. I have to admit that at times my order will still be messed up. If it isn't that bad I will go ahead and eat. But if it is just something that I can't tolerate then I will go up and complain. I don't think that it would be fair for me to have to purchase a second meal because they didn't get it right. Besides who is to say that they would be able to get it right the second time?

When I get food that I did not order or up to my standards, I will return it to the my server and tell them what is wrong with it. I will not ask for a refund unless my next order ends up the same way. I always give the resaurant a second chance but after that, I won't. I try not to be rude to them but they should serve the food correctly at least by the second time. I have also thrown away food to avoid the hassle of complaining about it. After so me times though, i will definitely ask for a refund.

I will go in and ask to talk to the manager and get my money back, if I have the time. I usually have lost my appitite if the food is that bad if it is at a drive through. If it is at a sit down restaurant I will say something if it is a wrong order. If I just do not like it, lets say I have never had something and I am trying it out, I usually will not say anything. I eat around it or I order something else.
If I complain it depends upon my mood and how hungry I am. I that does not make sensce but I am a women and I am fickel

That depends on the place. If I order one burger at McD and get another one I'll probably just eat it. But if I'm at a fine resturant and get the wrong dish then I would send it back. I wouldn't demand my money back unless something really bad happened.

I don't like to order food by drive through for the very reason you speak of. It is so often a wrong order because they care about speed more than anything. I use to just tell myself that is what I get for ordering junk food.

But lately I have a hang up with something and it is driving me nuts. I drive through Starbucks ALOT. I have a child in a car seat so it is easier to drive through. I order a drink that is made by topping it off with foam, when I get the drink there has been so much foam placed on the top and so little milk/latte that I might as well have payed for the drink a size smaller. I have tried ordering the rink without the foam and they tell me that "machiatto" means through the foam, so the drink is intended for the expresso shot to be added through the foam. Starbucks in tooooooooo expensive to not receive a full drink when you paid for it. I have become so annoyed lately about it that I actually go to the trouble to carry my son in and ask that they top of the drink with steamed milk.
I really MUST kick this Starbucks habbit of mine.

I politely call over the waitress and tell her this is not what I ordered. If I get a hassel or rudeness of any kind I will then ask to speak to the management. If I still get an attitude I will then ask for a refund and not eat there ever again. On drive thrus, if I get home and it is not what I ordered I immediately call the restaurant and talk with the manager or person filling thre orders and tell them what happened. In most cases they will either make restitution or allowance toward next purchase.

If I'm paying for something, I'm gonna get what I want. So no matter what restaurant we're at, I'll return the food. If they give me a hard time about it, which a lot of fast food places tend to do, I just get a refund and usually write a nasty letter to their corporate offices.:) My husband's worse than me though.. if I ask for something without onions and they put onions on it, I don't mind picking them off because it's not worth my time to point out the mistake. But if my husband sees me do it, he gets them to fix it.
