Do you get mad when cooks mess up your order?!


Question: Do you get mad when cooks mess up your order!?
Answers:
Not really, just as long as they do something about it!. If they are like oh well and give me attitude then yes I would!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

get as mad as you want but mistakes happen to everyone, espescially when an order is being relayed through like 4 people!. yeah you have to be a nutjob to work in a restaurant in general and deal with inconsiderate, ignorant people all day but if your nice to your server when you tell them theres a problem nothings gonna happen when you send it back!. just be nice to your waitstaff and realize that you are not the only person in the restaurant and theres prolly 2 cooks in the kitchen cooking 60 peoples worth of food!. theres so much more important stuff to waste your energy on!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes think of it - they are the professional!. If I am paying them to cook my meal they should be at least as good a cook as I am!.
I won't pay someone to make a meal for me when I could do it better myself!.
A meal out is a special occasion and it can be ruined by bad food or yours has to go back to the kitchen and everyone else eats first then waits for you to get your food and eat it!.

I don't get mad but I do ask them to take it back and do it right!.
It is also maddening if the server disappears and you have to go find them for a drink or the bill!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Of course, I get a little disappointed!. I don't make alot of money so when I pay money for someone else to prepare it, I expect it to be done to my liking!. That doesn't mean I'm a jerk about it and cop an attitude or throw a temper tantrum to staff members that may or may not be involved!. I calmly express my concern to the appropriate person, and have it remade!. The food service industry is trained to handle these situations, and they are usually effecient and professional about it!. They may even offer to discount or comp your meal for the inconvenience!. I have waited tables so I'm more understanding and patient when it comes to things of that nature!. I have had ppl chose not to tip me because their order was not to their liking, and I have had people yell and/or snap at me!. Don't take the low class route!. Be calm, express your dismay in a civil manner, and the staff will be more than willing to accomodate you!. You are not perfect, and neither are they!. You have to strive to come to a medium!.

Just recently my husband and I dined out!. We both ordered an appetizer and two side salads to precede our entrees!. Our entrees came out 15 minutes later, and the server forgot to order our apps and salads!. We thanked him for a speedy delivery, but told him we hadn't recieved our apps and salad!. He apologized!. We laughed it off and were friendly with him!. We recieved our bill and our entrees were discounted at 50% off!. We also recieved gift cards for 2 free desserts on our next visit!. It pays to be patient and congenial :) The jerks get their food spit on by immature line cooks and servers!. YUCK! Trust me, I've seen it unfortunately!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I think if you have ever worked in a restaurant, you know how chaotic it is back in the kitchen and realize that these people are only human!. A lot of poeple take it our on the waitress who may not have anything to do with it!. I don't get mad!. If its messed up to bad, I ask them to change it, but I have worked as a waitress before so I know what its like!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

Sure, it's an "inconvenience" but I try to remember!.!.!.some people in the world have absolutely nothing to eat so I just get over myself!. also, if you make a huge fuss and cop an attitude!.!.!.don't even think that your food will be safe once it's BACK in the hands of a ticked off cook!.
They can/will/do mess with your food!. Yes, I'm serious!. Just be cool about it!.!.!.explain it to the wait staff and be done with it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If it's edible, I won't complain!. They make 6$ an hour and have to deal with so much BS, it's incredible!. Not to mention, when you complain, they will spit in your food, rub themselves on your food, etc!.

I have friends who work in food service, you would not believe the stories I've heard about what they do to people who complain about food that there isn't anything wrong with!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

not only do i get mad but the fact that it was wrong and late just adds on to my anger!. if they are nice then you just keep it cool!. In fact you should always be nice to them because they aren't the people that cook your food, unless they wrote it down wrong!. But i try to be nice but i cant stand stupidity!. It is just frustrating!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I get mad if I've repeated the specifics of my order multiple times and they still mess up!.!.!. depends what kind of restaurant im in too- if it's a fancy one I send the plate back, if it's like a fast food joint, i ask for my $$ backWww@FoodAQ@Com

No, mistakes happen!. If they mess it up twice, or take forever to bring it to me and make up some stupid excuse, I get kind of ticked and expect them to comp it!. But I don't get really mad!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

This all depends on my mood!. If I'm in a good mood then I'll just brush it off!.
But I will most of the time ask for my food to be fixed so that it is the way that I ordered it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

No, I don't get mad!. Everyone's human!. If I really don't want to eat what was served to me, I'll mention it and have it redone!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yes I do!. But you never know what's gonna happen if you ask to send it back and have it done right!. Most cooks I've worked with are nutjobs!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

cooks are regular people and we all make mistakes before you get mad think to yourself can i cook for alot of differant people that want everything done a differant way and not make i mistake Www@FoodAQ@Com

No, not really!. I just tell my waiter I ordered something different!.
I know that if I'm chill about it, nobody will spit in my food!. Haha!. :)Www@FoodAQ@Com

I dont get mad!. I just go ohh!.!.this is not what i really wanted!. but usually i still keep it anyways/
Everyone makes mistakesWww@FoodAQ@Com

yes, because it's thier resposibility to get the correct order for you!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Yeah, I make the manager bring the chef and the have to personally apologize to me!. (I'm kind of a really big deal)
Www@FoodAQ@Com
