China Chef — Restaurant in San Diego

This is for delivery only. And never order from these people.

I called up, placed my order and was told that it would be 45 minutes.

It took a little under 90. When I got my food, it was cold and the delivery driver left without offering me any change.

When I got inside, my food was cold and the order was wrong.

I called up and was told the only way I could get a refund would be to drive all the way down there and back. And I had better have a "complete" order.

Photo'd is roughly the portion remaining...

Bad food, worse service

They were obviously busy when I called in my order, but that's not an excuse for being rude on the phone, which they were both times I called.

The person on the phone rushed off the phone - food that arrived was not the correct dishes. As I am not a picky eater I was going to go with it, but all food that did arrive was bland, inconsistently cooked (cold in some areas, warm in others).

When I called back to explain that I didn't have the right food, at first the person explained that I did have the right food. When I described what I had she admitted "oh it looks like the kitchen made the wrong thing." When I asked if they would send the right food she simple stated "No - we...
