Customer Review Summary
The complaints are specific and recur. Several reviewers describe chips that arrived hard, burnt, cold or obviously reheated, and one says the replacement batch was just as hard after a doubled wait. One delivery reportedly came with the pizza topping slumped to one side and undercooked scallops, and a kebab order arrived with only lettuce and none of the requested salad. One long-time customer describes a phone order that never arrived, with repeated "out for delivery" assurances and a cancellation call that went unanswered until they rang from another number.

“Ordered over the phone outside of peak hours and after 2 hours the food still hadn’t arrived. Called twice to chase it and see if it was easier to just collect it ourselves and was told both times it was “out for delivery” - evidently it wasn’t. Called a third time after 2 hours to cancel, no answer, had to ring from a different number just to get through and cancel the order and got through straight away, so they actively ignored the call from the number the order was placed from. We’ve used this place for years (15+ years) and only ever had a handful of minor issues with missing items etc, so it’s a shame. Not sure if the business has changed hands and standards have slipped, or if phone orders just aren’t a priority next to JustEat (which we’ve ordered off plenty of times no issue) but either way the service was horrifically poor so won’t be ordering again at all.”

My son said the double cheese burger was the best he ever had, i asked Mcdonalds or The Taste of Italy.. He said "The Taste of Italy always".. lol.. Tbh it was massive and looked so nice, for me there was no comparison "Taste of Italy always".. He got loads of chips with his meal and a drink The large chips was a "large portion" and tasted so nice, curry sauce 😋😋.. Chips from here are real chips and not fries.. Bonus..
